The Bible Is an Outdated Relic

I just had Jehovah witness couple bang on my front door.
Geez that's two weeks running as a different couple were here a week ago.
Something is up, maybe they're running out of parishioners and funds and looking for new blood.
Do you think there is a messsge here, is Jesus trying to talk to me?
Should I repent?
Thats GOLD!!!

The Jdubs knocking on Mickey's door :D Can you record it next time please Mickey :D

I was living in another suburb and JoHo's were living a few doors down.
They sent their church squad to our front door several times to try and win over my wife who had befriended these guys.
She was away once and they came knocking so I swore at them profusely.
I got a real laughing watching them flee running down the footpath, two old fat ugly ladies.
Can you imagine sitting around with them all day at home, supping tea and talking about Jesus, ffs.

Those who chose to reject Him will be thrown into a horrible place created for the devil and his demons, a place the Bible calls "The Lake of Fire," where they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.
Tell me you don't really believe that?

And the flip-side of that coin... Jeffery Dahmler finds religion on death row... and he skates his way thru the Pearly Gates while an atheist that lives a life on Earth that would put Mother Theresa to shame... burns in hell forever?

Yeah. That makes perfect sense.

Simple minds subjugated to the church heirachy who preach fear, guilt, punishment, will always resort to devils and demons who reside in others and not themselves.
Christians feel good about themselves they are of God, the rest of us are trash.

Funny how Christians still depend on us trash so they can survive.
I mean OP is posting on a 'trash evil ET website' so that he can get his jollies preaching bullshit to us lost souls.
 
I do believe in God, but I don’t trust any religion. I don’t doubt that God exists. For me it’s a super computer, super intelligence. It’s not a biological creature anyhow. I guess it has more in common with radio waves and fireballs than living cells. God is the most skilled engineer ever. He designed living and non-living stuff. As for the Bible and religions, they have nothing to do with God. These are pure propaganda products created to manipulated people on behalf of God. However, I admit a thought that I may be wrong.

I think it's good that you recognize this possibility. (Though of course, what I think is of no consequence.) For everything you wrote are products of your creation. That's why I don't put the Bible and religions in the same category. Buddhism was the product of Siddhartha Gautama. Islam was the product of the Prophet Abu al-Qasim Muhammad. On the other hand, the Bible was produced by approximately 40 different authors over a span of about 1500 to 1600 years. Yet, it all fits together as one cohesive narrative.

On top of this, the Scriptures were validated by God Himself, in the flesh, Yeshua Hamashiach, God the Son. As He Himself told the Jewish leaders of His day, "You study the Scriptures diligently because you think that in them you have eternal life. These are the very Scriptures that testify about me, yet you refuse to come to me to have life." So then, those writings all foretold the coming of the Messiah.

But, perhaps Jesus wasn't real...except that virtually all scholars of antiquity agree that a historical human Jesus existed, not to mention the witness of non-Christian historians. For example, Josephus, the Jewish-Roman historian, was a principal witness. Mara bar Serapion, a Stoic philosopher, writes of "the wise king" of the Jews who was put to death. The Roman historians Tacitus and Suetonius, both hostile to Christianity, mention the followers of Christ. The Jewish Talmud condemns Yeshu of Nazareth as a sorcerer and blasphemer. (Why a sorcerer? Because He performed miracles. Also, in Babylonian Sanhedrin107b it is claimed that Jesus practiced magic. In tHul2:22-23 it is reported that healings were done in the name of Jesus.)

Other mentions appear in Pliny the Younger's correspondence with Hadrian, Thallus, Phlegon of Tralles, Philo of Alexandria, and Celsus, a bitter opponent of Christianity. And I could go on and on as to what architectural, historical, scientific and textual evidence suggests it would be a mistake to dismiss the Bible as pure propaganda. But, I know better. For the Bible itself teaches that...

...those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God...and no one is able to come to Christ unless the Father, the One who sent Him, draws them...for even if the Gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing. The god of this age [the devil] has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.

So, rather than argue with anyone in an attempt to convince them of the Bible's credence, I simply pray that those who are truly seeking the truth would have their eyes/minds opened.

  1. Christians sin, just like everyone else (or do they?)
    Addendum: But why worry about sin? Every one of us is already saved.
  2. The women spread the word of the empty tomb (or did they?)
  3. All Christians are united in what they believe about Jesus (right?)
  4. No one can see God (or can they?)
  5. God’s rules keep changing
  6. Faith saves (or do works save?)
  7. The different genealogies of Jesus
  8. Does God prevent harm to good Christians?
  9. When is the End?
  10. Jesus finds a new home for Mary. But why?
  11. Do people deserve punishment for their ancestors’ sins?
  12. What day was Jesus crucified on?
  13. Who should the disciples convert?
  14. Jesus should’ve returned already.
  15. Jesus promises that prayers are answered
  16. There are two incompatible Ten Commandments
  17. There are two creation stories in Genesis
  18. There are even two Flood stories
  19. Resurrection contradictions
  20. Jesus forgets the plot
  21. Jesus predicts his death and resurrection, but everyone forgot
  22. Jesus and the zombies
  23. Women brought spices to the tomb (or not)
  24. Peter’s denials
 
Already the first two are not contradictions, if semantics and words matter.

It makes perfect sense (though I don't comment on the specific individuals you named as I can't look into their hearts nor am I the judge nor is it my business), salvation is not earned which sets Christianity apart from every other world religion, including Judaism. But actions and behavior after being saved still matter, because they call into question whether an individual was saved in the first place or not. The criminal on the cross next to Jesus may have murdered people in his past yet Jesus promised that he will be with him in paradise because the criminal repented and accepted the gift of salvation. The term "and now go and sin no more" is also crucial and I think this is what gives Christianity such a bad name, that a lot of self professing Christians don't really reflect a changed lifestyle and attitudes. Which brings into question their claims of their being saved. The desire to do the right thing in God's eyes ought to be a reflection of being re-born, despite being sinners until death.

Tell me you don't really believe that?

And the flip-side of that coin... Jeffery Dahmler finds religion on death row... and he skates his way thru the Pearly Gates while an atheist that lives a life on Earth that would put Mother Theresa to shame... burns in hell forever?

Yeah. That makes perfect sense.

Example 1

So everyone has sinned, right?

Or have they?

And what does born of God mean?

So one part of the Bible says the opposite of another part. That is a contradiction.


Example 2
upload_2023-6-14_21-50-15.png

One part says they told people; the other says they didn't. That is also a contradiction.
