Christianity simple explained

To be honnest, I really thought the first time I saw it that it was mocking the believes of Christian, and then I red the description and saw it was made by some christians and I got really confused.

I just think it's sad to resume spirituality just to "I got in the right team".

 

So you see no contradiction between these first two statements?

 

"Jesus will be our mediator and advocate with the Father"

you mean Jesus is not God?

 

No, that is your inability to comprehend. Christians that think there are contradictions in the Bible simply haven't studied enough to understand the Bible. So, you said there are contradictions. Give me one that others haven't already posted that I've answered.

 

No. Satan is not the only reason for temptation. By our own thoughts and actions we can be led down the path of sin. Eventually, Satan or one of his fallen followers will assist us to hell. I don't know why you have trouble with this?
As an example, Satan tempted Eve and she used her understanding of the commandments that were given to Adam and Eve in the Garden, to multiply and replentish the earth. So, she partook so that Father's spirit children could come to the earth and man would be on the earth. Adam, however, didn't allow Satan to tempt him to transgress and go against the commandments. But, on his own accord, he reasoned by himself to eat the fruit of that tree to remain with Eve. Satan did nothing to Adam directly. Adam did it on his own. And, thus, A Savior was provided so that whether or not Satan caused our sins, we could have eternal forgiveness.

 

there are many contradictions in the bible, anyone can see that

 

There are countless stars in the universe and I'm here on the earth. It can't be a coincidence.

 

Your getting old. You know there aren't. Just a bunch of slander.

 

just stating facts, maybe when you get older you will see the truth too

 

Christianity simple explained

Jesus' Kingdom will be established on Earth as soon as every elected office in America is held by Bible Thumping Republicans

 

Did you know that Christians held actual slave auctions in America after the 13th Amendment was in force? They didn't cotton to that indentured servitude you seem to be so fond of. Slavery is still legal in America but today's would probably kill the slave owner within two seconds. I wonder why the Christians don't remove that clause from the federal and state constitutions?

 

Slavery in the Old Testament was not racist.

 

Do you live in the Old Testament or in America, one of the most racist countries to ever exist?

 

The Old Testament never mentioned race based slavery. https://www.gotquestions.org/beating-slaves.html

 

I would love to have time machine so that I could send you back in time to have fun as a slave for about 30 years.

 

Jesus didn't come for social reform-he came to save us and to teach us how to live.

 

The post wasn't about Jesus. It was about support for Slavery in the Bible, e.g., Exodus 21. It was about Bible instructions on how to beat slaves and sell one's daughter for a sex slave.

To quote Abe Lincoln -- "Whenever I hear anyone arguing for slavery, I feel a strong impulse to see it tried on him personally."

 

The slavery in the Bible wasn't sex slavery. https://www.gotquestions.org/Bible-slavery.html

 

What do you suppose the following is talking about?


7 “When a man sells his daughter as a slave, she shall not go out as the male slaves do. 8 If she does not please her master, who has designated her for himself...

 

If you study the Bible in its proper context you notice that it's not sexist. https://www.gotquestions.org/unclean-daughter-longer-son.html

 

Sure Sam - in your version the God of Jesus and Abraham is a Pagan God - and you make up what ever you like and claim that this is God's will.

 

If slavery isn't race based does that make it acceptable to you?

 

Jesus came to save us and to teach us how to live, not to reform society. https://www.gotquestions.org/Bible-slavery.html

 

The Israelites being influenced by pagan beliefs wasn't God's will. https://www.gotquestions.org/Yahweh-Edomite-Canaanite-god.html

 

Matthew 25:41 in the KJV version:

"Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels"

Those are the words of Jesus as reported by Matthew.

I've looked at a good number of Biblical translations, and I don't see any of them weakening thi9s statement of everlasting fire or suggesting that those who believe in Jesus, yet fail in the duty stated in that chapter (starting at verse 31) are going to end up in some place evenslightly better than where Satan will end up.
