What in the world? You dive into a thread with ridiculous, emotional, irrelevant statements trying to attack someone's personal character... and they're the troll? Hilariousness.
You clearly dont understand the context in which I have called him a Troll, I wonder if you were able to read and comprehend what I had to say or you just want to come to the defense of someone who rejects Christianity in a similar way to yourself...
You know if you can't handle an honest, historically based conversation about the Christian Religion why not head over to a purely Christian website?
I can handle debate about anything, I dont think you know me very well, I have spent more time debating more people on more subjects, including a defense of Christianity than probably anyone on this forum. I have been here since the first post on this site 10 years ago. Just because I am much more busy today than I was at that time, doesnt mean I can not or fear debates nor have the ability to counter whatever arguments are posted.
I have zero problems either debating the merits of my own Faith or if needed extensively debating other people about the merits of their Faith or pretty much any Faith or Religion that exists. However what I stated is the Truth, and since atm I do not have that kind of time to spend 16 hours on a back and forth Thread repeating an argument with someone new that I have already debated in thousands of posts previously, I decided to call out the REALITY of how IL acts on this Forum.
If the man Jesus was to see what Christianity has become... it's an embarrassment.
I would agree, however we would 100% disagree on why...
It might hurt to break down the deception within Reformed Catholicism in the 21st century, but it's time brother. The pretenders, impostors, and false prophets who've used the name of Jesus and God to push their own agenda/ego are done for.
Well thats actually the opposite of what the Bible states, but I am sure it makes you feel good about your rejection of the Word of God and makes you feel like you are doing something good. The Bible actually states that more False Prophets are going to arise, and guess who they are going to try and get under their wings?
Not me, those False Prophets will say the same stuff you and IL do, that I and other Born Again Believers are to "Fundamentalistic" that we are too strict, that we really dont know what the Bible is saying, that the Bible only contains part of the Truth, ect ect ect...
You will love the False Prophets the serious ones, when they arise and they do just what you want to see happen, bring about or TRY to bring about the Destruction of Christianity, when people like myself will be persecuted and told to shut up because our end is here...
I was saying this earlier but in the academic world almost no one denies that Jesus lived
So what, of course any sensible human being would have to agree that there was a man named Jesus that lived 2000 yrs ago. There are still huge swaths of people who believe Jesus DIDNT exist, we have them on this site, are you going to go and argue the merits of His existence to them? Are you going to create threads to prove the existence of Christ? I doubt it...
The incongruity of Christianity is the alien theology built up by men, which has only divided people
Christianity is not congruent to those who refuse on purpose to see the Truth contained in it, and the fact is the Bible states that Lost people will perceive exactly as you do. Here is one of many statements from the Word of God that directly shows why someone Lost like you would make these statements:
1 Cor 2:12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
Lost people, the natural man, can not understand Spiritual Things, the Things revealed in the Word of God by the Spirit of God, to him, to YOU it is foolishness. Look at one time in my life, the Bible was complete and utter trash to me. I didnt not only understand it, I thought I OVERSTOOD it. By that I mean I thought I KNEW BETTER than what the Bible had to say. I thought if the Bible did contain the Truth it was mixed with lies and tainted by men for power and control.
I created my OWN Religion that took bits of many other Religions and I created for myself my own god, my own Religion, my own personal devotion and worship, and without a doubt I knew that these Christians were deceived. They only had part of the picture. They were blinded and sheep and hardheaded. If only they could KNOW what I KNEW, if only they could stop being so "fundamentalist" in their views of the Bible, man they could be set free.
Then this crazy thing happened, right in the middle of me literally full blown hating and rejecting Biblical Christianity, saying all the crap you are spewing at me right now and on this forum, I had a Personal Real Life Changing Encounter with the Jesus Christ of the Bible. In one day I went from a man that was literally saying almost verbatim the types of things, the same arguments I see you and IL spewing day in and day out, to a man that literally was preaching the Gospel.
I was in a Drug Rehab Center and went in Lost and denying Christ, and in literally one moment, one day, I met Jesus Christ and started preaching the Gospel. I was told by the staff there I am going to be that crazy guy with a sign on the corner of the street proclaiming the End is Near, Repent and come to Jesus. And Amen 21 years later, here I am still symbolically holding that sign on this Forum proclaiming the End is Near, Repent and come to Jesus.
I dont care what you have to say concerning "Reason" although trust me my friend I can debate and expose your insignificant reasoning easily if I cared to, but you can not tell me that there is any way a man can be who I was when I went into that place and be a radically different man coming out, except by the Divine Grace that was poured out over me by Jesus Christ. If you knew me then and know me now you'd know the Power of Christ in my Life, period...
And if its alien it is because of the FACT that it is the one that is 100% God Sent and the rest are from a different source, which again agrees with what the Bible actually states. What does Jesus say about what He came to do? Is it unite everyone?
Matt 10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.
Jesus specifically said He did NOT come to bring peace, and He hasnt, even you acknowledged it. Christ brought division, do you know why? Because He made sure to show and prove that there is only ONE WAY to Salvation, and that is thru Him, by Faith thru Grace and since He made it apparent that He, the Faith He established and His Followers are EXCLUSIVE, it instantly set Him, His Faith and His Followers APART from every other belief in this World.
In laymens talk, you either get down or lay down, and guess what the Natural Man dont like that, people dont like that, other Religions dont like to here that its all or nothing with Jesus. FALSE PROPHETS proclaim other ways, like you want to believe in, LIARS tell everyone that all gods are the same, all paths lead to the same God. Just like you literally say in your post.
No sir, YOU are the False Prophet, YOU are the liar if you believe and proclaim these things and those to come whom YOU will join under will be telling ME and those who have Faith in Christ that we must suffer and die and put away for daring to share the EXCLUSIVE ONE PATH TO GOD which is thru Christ.
John 15:18 If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.
19 If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.
20 Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also.
Glad we both will be to witness that day and these Scriptures come True, for different reason but one of our joys will last for eternity, the others will end in misery...
We've got idiots on this site preaching that the God of Islam is a different entity than the God of the Christians! It's some dangerous shit man.
The real dangers are those who are blind to the signs of the times, who really can not comprehend that the god professed by Muhammad can not possibly be the same God professed by Jesus Christ in the Bible. Are you really that willfully ignorant?
It is literally this simple, does the god of Islam profess to have a Son? No he doesnt, he literally and specifically denounces that over and over and over. The God of the Bible whether you look to Jesus specifically saying He is the Son of God, or you look to the Old Testament in Psalm where it is declared to Kiss the Son lest He be Angry and you be taken away in His Wrath, either way we KNOW that the God of the Bible HAS a Son.
On this basis alone we can determine that the god Muhammad professed can not possibly be the God professed in the Bible. Seriously man, you have to be completely blind or brainwashed not to acknowledge the massive difference between the god as laid out in the Koran and the God laid out in the Bible.
The are not the same, literally the ONLY things similar between the Koran and the Bible are the idea of Monotheism, the names of places and the names of people, everything else is in stark contrast. Here is an anology for you in comparing the god of Islam to the God of the Bible as professed by Jesus in the Bible.
There are 2 creatures before me, they both have eyes, tails, fur, sharp teeth, wet noses, claws, ears, pads on their feet. So at the moment they sound like they are the type of creature right? One barks, one meows, welp regardless of their similarities it only take one massive difference for us to be able to discern they are NOT the same creature.
The same goes for the god of Islam vs the God of the Bible proclaimed thru Christ. And I only mentioned ONE of MANY differences that make it objectively apparent that the god Muhammad professes isnt the God Christ professes. But sure man you keep your blinders on and tell us they we are deceived and dangerous.
For someone on a freaking Conspiracy Site you would think you would know the objectives of the NWO, which one of them is clearly a New World Religion, one that EMBRACES all the Religions except for one, the one I am professing, the one that says that Christ came to bring Division, the one that says that Christ is EXCLUSIVE and the ONLY way to reach God and Salvation, the one that clearly proclaims that the god of Islam, Hinduism, Gnosticism, Buddhism, Occultism, Modern Judaism aka the Religion of the Pharisees, the gods of the Ancient Mystery Religions, none of them are the God of the Bible, the One True God as proclaimed by Jesus Christ of the Bible.
You will love the False Prophets who are going to usher in this One World Religion, who will set up a Religion that YOU find tolerable, this Satanic Mix of all these False Religions combined. I have read many of your posts and what you proclaim is in essence the Religion that is going to be established by the Anti Christ... Wake up dude...
25% of the world are, or are related to, Christianity. The study and investigation into everything related to Jesus the Messiah will not stop. Every theory, every document will be shown to be what it is. There is truth, and only truth can set us free.
Amen, the Truth is there, you sadly want to throw on blinders and look for any possible "proof" that the Christ as revealed to us clearly thru the Word of God isnt the real one. Therefore you will continually cling to any and all possible theories and ideologies that allow you to be comfortable in your rejection of the One Truth, until that day that when He is revealed from the Heavens in Glory. It will be a great day for me, but if you continue to reject Him it will be a terrible day for you. I hope one day you repent and come to the Truth my friend, the Jesus you see in Scriptures is the Real, the Only Jesus that exists.
I hope one day you have the same encounter I had with Him, the kind of encounter that takes you from looking for any type of other possibility of Jesus except the Biblical account of Him, to in the matter of one second changing your heart to know without a doubt, to the grave and staring down death, that the Jesus of the Bible IS the Real, the True, the Only Jesus, and when you meet Him, when you have that experience then that is when you will KNOW the Truth and then be MADE Free. Here is to praying its tonight brother...
John 8:32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
