.... Jesus died on the cross to atone for your sins ...


.. then why do you still beg for mercy for your soul and ask to be forgiven?



Do you doubt the trueness of the crucifixion? Deep down inside, do you really fear that it isn't true that you are saved via Jesus dying for it?

You doubt ... if you continue to pray to be saved .. then you believe you aren't.




Second ..... I think people have something screwed up here. They honor and do everything possible to save the body, to make the body of special importance ..

... he did that, and then came back in spirit to show you the body isn't of importance, the spirit is.






So, my overall question is: Why do you say you have faith when you really doubt?

Did he die in vain, then?


Seems that nobody wants to respond to this .. is it because there is no answer for it?


Jesus suffered in death, excruiating pain .. FOR YOU .. so you would be saved from sin ... and then you pray to god, and ask for forgiveness, ask to be saved .. while praising Jesus for doing this for you.


That's like talking out of both sides of your mouth ... did he, or did he not die for you?

Then why are you doubting that? Don't you realize that to doubt, is to NOT have faith?

It doesn't make any sense.
I have found nearly no one christian that truly follows their religion like they are supposed to.
Jesus said something like "I will spit you out if you are lukewarm"
Well, everyone is lukewarm so everyone is going to "hell"
There aren't even any true pastors or ministers that follow their cause.
Even the ones that aren't money obsessed still fail at doing what the bible says.

This test isn't entirely accurate.
I most associate myself to Naturalistic Pantheism but Mahayana would be next and I think Hinduism is kinda silly..

I think the problem is with our awareness of how the sacrifice was made by God for us out of love.It is in realising that God has one time at one event wiped out our sin-account and deemed us worthy of forgiveness,through His grace.In accepting and understanding this we are free from the effect of sin..if we realise it,if we choose it.So to participate fully in this blessing,we too have the power to forgive and not bear grudges and seek revenge,so we are free from our own sin and the sins of others against us.So istead of praying for forgiveness,we should thank God for forgiveness that we are omnipresently welcome to.Hence God does not send people to hell,they do that by themselves.Thats my understanding of it,right there.

Dear little wounded bird

I was a Christian the great majority of my life and I was more spiritual than anyone I have known.
I can tell you things about Christianity and spirituality that you won't see for a million years.
I reached a state of bliss, time was nearly frozen, I was able to think hundreds of things all at once without thinking at all.
I no longer thought, I only knew...Every neuron in my brain rung with the frequency of Jesus/Love/Peace/God.

It was the best time of my entire life.
People said I was literally glowing and sometimes I felt a surge of tickling energy throughout my entire being as I spoke things that I never knew existed.
Sometimes people would pull out a bible and turn to the scriptures and things I spoke of.
I acted immediately to all unexpected situations because I already knew what i was supposed to do.
I gave my most cherished items and then some to those who asked for them.
Not only was my mind pure but my heart, soul and spirit were also totally purified.
I was able to detect peoples pain without any mention of it from them.
I actually healed 3 people of small things like joint pain.
Eternity was in a millisecond, time didn't exist.
Only love existed.
Pure and innocent love, not the kind you have for your child or parents.
Instead it was much more universal.

I was the mother of love. I cherished and cared for love.
Every action I did was done in the name of the holy spirit. No negativity entered, at all.
I no longer expected any results from anything.
I was in bliss and I didn't care if washing the dishes resulted in clean dishes. I just cared that the good was done.
If the dishes became dirty a million times right after I washed them I would still wash them because it would be right and I would never become agitated in the least.
I saw the future often and exactly as it happened.
I still do, it just isn't as often an occurance.

So, Mr.I know I am right, are you right—
Do you or have you ever known Jesus the Christ—

I would glady die on a cross and be tortured 1000x for any 1 person that I hate.
I would gladly die to stop a child from being raped and having their limbs cut off.
This is earth. This is shit.
If I were to save an entire species (Humans) from eternal hell I would gladly be tortured for 10000000000 years.
Jesus ain't shit.
He didn't save anything.
We are all still in hell, killing, stealing from and raping each other just like always.
Jesus was a very wise and good man, a Pisces/Martyr.
He did what he thought would help people because he couldn't stop hurting until everyone else stopped hurting.
It hurts so much that being tortured and killed is nothing.
Me and the boy have much more in common than I could have imagined.
It's very strange.

I find it amazing all the evil that comes from religon.



I agree with you.
but if a person has an understanding,they understand religion and faith are two entirely different animals.
I'm not religious in any respect,but I have faith in my creator.
faith is inward,wheras religion is outward.
Faith is between one person and his/her God,religion is between men.it's a man made vehicle of control and power.
Faith never hurt anyone,but religion has killed many,many.

ps
I ♥ your liver.

Back up ur claim?. When has "religion" killed. They say weapons kill. Again, ur argument is typical cop out.



I'm not sure if you're speaking to me or not,but....

Are you denying the fact millions of people have been killed in the name of religion?

do you know anything about northern Ireland,or Israel and Palestine?or the inquisitions(they lasted a loooong time)?

how about Jim Jones? or David Koresh?

ftr,I am a Christian,but not a follower of religion.you are defending religion...and seem to be getting agitated.see how that works? 😉

Millions have died from cancer and liver failure etc etc. not at all am i agitated by ur thoughts. They are the same old comments used over and over again.



I don't understand your logic.

In N. Ireland they are not killing one another over cancer and bad livers....they're doing it over their religious politics....

People are not killing people over God.people kill people over political religion dressed as God.


Don't get me started on cancer and bad livers,cuz I can really take you in some unconventional directions with that....
