Ecclesiastes (13) Don't argue with God

a reply to: Joneselius

Not so meek and mild in this rendition, hey?

Although two different traditions, probably not going to see eye-to-eye.

Somebody made a clip (not saying it's endorsed by any authority), but interesting.

a reply to: halfoldman

I let Christ tell me who his father is.

Christ claimed to be God, so there goes that view. There is NO parallel claim than those that Chris has to his name. If you you're intellectually honest you'd see that.

These are the end times and lies will abound.

From last page: You . . . Do realize that's Jesus . . . Don't you?

Er nope, apart from your interpretation there's no connection to Jesus whatsoever here.
It is describing a likeness of the Lord however.

It's Ezekial, it's Old Testament and pre-Jesus.

a reply to: Joneselius

Just to be clear, we should accept a claim simply because it is made?

I personally accept Christ, but also the Hindu understanding.

Just to say, you haven't made a very convincing case for a historical Christ.

That is, so far the argument is so because I say so.

No special evidence to convince me yet.

Dwarka, India (Krishna's ancient city found).



I have some evidence for the Hindu scriptures.

Why should I believe you?

a reply to: halfoldman

Hahahaha "pre Jesus". Revealing your total lack of understanding. You claim to love Jesus.....

"Before Abraham was, I am".

It was Jesus, the Lord. If you read the description of the ascended Jesus upon his return you'd see that.

You follow him with your lips alone, you don't have a good relationship, that's evident. You don't even know John 1.

In the BEGINNING was the word (Jesus) and the word was with God and the word was God........

Oops.

I don't need to make a case for Christ. If you knew Christ he'd have worked in your life already. More confirmation that you're only a lip service 'Christian'. Lukewarm believers are spewed out of his mouth. The case I present is prophecy, which the Bible has flawlessly demonstrated time and time again.

Go and ask a born again former drug addict, or abuse victim, or cancer patient who the Lord has saved for their evidence. You don't see his working because you're mixing his work with the world.

Fine, but I never claimed to be a Christian, I only said I love and respect Christ.

Thank you brother.

You forgot Rev 1 and Rev 19 and 22 all speak of Jesus that are directly connected to the Old Testament. But knowing scripture and n=knowing the saviour are two different things like belief and faith. You can believe the scriptures, you can believe a person but you can only have faith for salvation.

Love and respect will not save you from and eternity in Hell.

a reply to: halfoldman

Those who love me keep my commandments.

Jesus said that. Your lip service is just that...

God knows best

I will argue with him over this...I do not feel or place any comfort in placing my safety onto his rod...nope, cant do it. Cant trust strange, omnipotent entities that I never met.

a reply to: Joneselius

OK, but the last I checked in the Bible the greatest commandments are to love the Lord and your neighbor as yourself.

I'm not the one running the de facto Fred Phelps memorial page here on how "God hates ...", and turning another generation away from Christianity.

a reply to: Specimen88

But you have seen him in everything around you and will be without excuse when you meet him face to face.

a reply to: halfoldman

Pay any attention to what it is he hates and why.

His hatred is not like your hatred.

When God shows up, all will be answered.

Waiting for Godot.

Don't argue with God!

Be like Job and constantly whine about your undeserved fate.

Well, it seemed to work.

Oh by the way ... that's my buddy Jehova.
He had a bet with Satan, so i took one for the team.
Still surviving, but being the fair and moral being Jehovah tends to be, just saying, don't forget little ole me.
