[QUOTE="Crushmaster"]
I will now answer the first few questions:
Have you ever told a lie? What does that make you?
Yep. It makes me a liar.
Have you ever stolen anything? What does that make you?
Yes. It makes me a thief.
Have you ever looked with lust? The Bible calls that adultery.
I am aware of that, and I have done so.
Have you ever hated anyone? According to the Bible, that's murder.
I don't think so.
Have you ever used God's name in vain? What does that make you?
Once, yes. It makes me a blasphemer.
According to God's Standard, the Ten Commandments, I am lying, thieving, adulterous, blasphemer at heart.
Based on these answers, what your eternal destiny going to be? Heaven or hell?
Heaven.
Why is that?
Because I have been born again, I have repented of my sins, and I have accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior. My sins are now covered by His Blood, and will be forever more.

Hey OT, it looks like he wasn't judging after all. :) He's guilty of all those things, as am I. And the reason we are going to Heaven is simple. And you guys all probably know the way to get saved. :D

Hmm, I'm confused. If you don't accept Jesus then you are an evil person?

Another question for you, TC.

True or false? Everyone who lived before John the Baptist went to Hell.

How do you know it's the word of God? Funky_Llama

It has no errors. It speaks truths. And all the old prophecies about Jesus and many other things came to pass.

Hah, I couldn't believe in God without evidence any more than you can voluntarily believe that pigs fly.Funky_Llama

I call BS.

Baptism has no effect on how good of a person you are. Your actions make you a good (or bad) person.


I never said I was baptized. I have been, but that is not what saves you. Nor have I ever said I was a good person. Because I am not a good person, in God's eyes

You said you were "born again". Sounds like a baptism reference to me.

You may wish to check that definition... "Homophobia (from Greekhomós: one and the same; phóbos: fear, phobia) is an irrational fear of, aversion to, or discrimination against homosexuality"

I really don't want to open a can of worms... but I could answer that if you really wanted me too. Over PM.

Everybody does.

Ever person is capable of good things, and bad things, and in-between things, and neither things. That's just how people are. No person is one way. Many of us think we are, but we aren't. The collection of multiple concepts, ideas, and perceptions are who we are. We are neither true, nor false.

There's no sexism or homophobia or anything of that sort. :|

Really, now lets not get into this argument again, I think its fairly obvious that most people would admit the bible is sexist at some points. And condemning homosexuality= homophobia in my eyes.

[QUOTE="battlefront23"]

And actually it is proof. :Dbattlefront23

Of what:| I suppose its proof that Jesus once lived, and that he was a man who did many great things. Other then that...

But God doesn't fear homosexuals tho. That's what homophobia is; the fear of homosexuals.

And no it's not sexist.

What do you want it to prove?

Bit of a misquote in there, but whatever...

Funky_Llama and I pretty much just proved you wrong about the homophobia thing so... all thats left is sexism.

Here is another website

And here is a video...

Seriously, these are blatantly sexist quotes. And nothing you have posted has combatted that.

[QUOTE="Crushmaster"] I have answered the questions myself. I am just as guilty as you or anyone else on this topic. There's just one difference...My sins are covered by the Blood of the Lamb.LJS9502_basic

Seems like someone wanted to invent an easier version of Christianity. Hey guys....living by the rules is too hard. Let's just say if we are baptized we're covered.....then we can be as low down nasty as we want to be. No sweat......

Except that is NOT how Jesus taught.,...


Invent an easier version of Christianity? If someone says, "Hey, I'm a Christian now, I'm saved, I can go do whatever I want!" I highly doubt they were ever a Christian.
If you are truly saved, there will be a change.
And I, my friend, have been changed. I am a new creature in Christ Jesus my Lord!

Sure about that? How would you cure leprosy?

49And he shall take to cleanse the house two birds, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and hyssop:

50And he shall kill the one of the birds in an earthen vessel over running water:

51And he shall take the cedar wood, and the hyssop, and the scarlet, and the living bird, and dip them in the blood of the slain bird, and in the running water, and sprinkle the house seven times:

52And he shall cleanse the house with the blood of the bird, and with the running water, and with the living bird, and with the cedar wood, and with the hyssop, and with the scarlet:

53But he shall let go the living bird out of the city into the open fields, and make an atonement for the house: and it shall be clean.

Suffice it to say... this 'remedy' is less than successful.

And even God himself confesses to giving bad commandments in Ezekiel 20:25: "Wherefore I gave them also statutes that were not good, and judgments whereby they should not live"

It speaks truths.

battlefront23

Given that the truth of the Bible is what we're debating here, that's just begging the question.

And all the old prophecies about Jesus and many other things came to pass.

I think the idea is that you're still an evil person if you do, you just get let off the hook.

I know :P but in reality, it's the same thing... at what point have you sinned enough that you're "forced" to accept Jesus or face an eternity in hell?

It sounds like some posters are saying that one sin (depending on the sin I guess) is enough. Basically, (since NOBODY, including the pope, is THAT perfect) the world consists of 6 billion EVIL individuals and the only way they can be called GOOD is if they accept Christ. That image doesn't feel right to me.

In the website, nearly every single verse is taken out of context AND secondly, who was God talking to?

The video also takes things out of context. Also, why would Adam be punished for something he didn't do? His sin was different then Eve's but it wasn't any less of a sin.

See what I've gotten from your posts is that you admit to lying, stealing etc but say you will be saved because you believe. That is not how it works. You have to strive to NOT do those things. Because even believing in Jesus will not save you if you are not a decent human being.

Where did I cast stones? Homosexuality is the same as adultery, molesting a minor, etc. God said it was an abomination; you're saying it's not?

I would not take the word of certain sects of Christianity to speak for the reality of Christianity. One is responsible for one's actions. Hiding behind a Christian banner while not living as Christ has taught does not equal salvation.

And I read the thread in your sig, and now I realize your against H0mosexual marriage. You make me sick.

TAKE_IT_BACK


All I'll say is that God has ordained both men and women with different roles.
Men, for example, are the protectors.

*super epic facepalm*

I wish a feminist was here to point out all the problems with that...


You can call me old-fashioned, dumb, I don't care.
But God has ordained men to be the protectors, providers, and leaders - and women are supposed to be the helpers, comforters, and nurterers. Women to be respected, protected, and cherished - not sent out to fight terrorists or criminals.
That is God's Order, but, sadly, it has been destroyed in this day and age.

I'm pretty sure if they weren't afraid of them being different, they wouldn't be killing them:|

(man I'm using :| a lot in this thread)

Maybe they are killing them because it is an abomination, just like every other sin. Ask Theo. Speaking of, I could use his help! :x

Maybe the custom of the day made it an abomination. Jesus did not condemn homossexuals. And truth of the matter gay sex is no different than premarital sex. But homophobics use some text in the Bible to make it appear much worse. I will not cast stones at anyone.....how about we all try that.;)

Where did I cast stones? Homosexuality is the same as adultery, molesting a minor, etc. God said it was an abomination; you're saying it's not?

*sigh* Could you honestly prove, without resorting to scripture, that it is wrong? If you can't, you should be worrying. Murder is demonstrably wrong. Theft is demonstrably wrong. Homosexuality? There's no secular justification for homophobia at all.

Why is it an abomination?

To be honest, I don't know. It has to do something to do with the fact God made marriage between a man and woman. And also, man have... you know. And girls have... you know. And God made them that way on purpose. But that's just my interpretation. Call me brainwashed or w/e, but until someone proves the Bible isn't inerrant, I will believe what it says.

My friends consider me "too" good of a person. I gave up our seats at the football game to the senors, because it was their last game, of course, we didn't have to move back but one row... I also only curse when I'm serious about it, less than once a week. Still have too much lust, but you can't really help that, can you?

:roll: Oh, so homosexuals are abominations now, eh? Don't even get me started...

Listen: I attend a homosexual friendly church. They preform homosexual weddings there. Is that all sin? Are all these people damned to hell? Well then I'm not so sure I agree with God on all this stuff. Maybe he/she should open his/her eyes.

Oh yeah, I went there. Does that mean I'm going to hell now? Thats a shame.

Also, TC, if you were hoping of converting people online, let me tell you, you failed. In fact, before I entered this thread, I was agnostic. Now I'm an atheist, just because of the absolutely opinions you and other Christians have. Don't get me wrong, I respect your belief in God, but I cannot understand how you can defend that terrible book you call holy.

[QUOTE="Funky_Llama"][QUOTE="Hungry_bunny"]

It sounds like some posters are saying that one sin (depending on the sin I guess) is enough. Basically, (since NOBODY, including the pope, is THAT perfect) the world consists of 6 billion EVIL individuals and the only way they can be called GOOD is if they accept Christ. That image doesn't feel right to me.

LJS9502_basic
Yeah. The idea that I could live a perfect life and then go 'Oh for God's sake', and just for that I'd be tortured for eternity, doesn't seem at all right to me.

I would not take the word of certain sects of Christianity to speak for the reality of Christianity. One is responsible for one's actions. Hiding behind a Christian banner while not living as Christ has taught does not equal salvation.

But surely then, if actions matter, it would make sense for the reciprocal to apply, ie non-Christians who've led good lives should go to heaven.

Did God actually say that? Or did someone say it claiming that God told him?

Ooh. Now we're getting to the root of the matter. The problem is this: is should be the other way round. If I write on a piece of paper that, say, the Muslim God exists, there is absolutely no way to prove that said piece of paper is not inerrant. So by your standards of proof... looks like it's time for a conversion. :lol:

[QUOTE="Crushmaster"] Invent an easier version of Christianity? If someone says, "Hey, I'm a Christian now, I'm saved, I can go do whatever I want!" I highly doubt they were ever a Christian.
If you are truly saved, there will be a change.
And I, my friend, have been changed. I am a new creature in Christ Jesus my Lord!LJS9502_basic
See what I've gotten from your posts is that you admit to lying, stealing etc but say you will be saved because you believe. That is not how it works. You have to strive to NOT do those things. Because even believing in Jesus will not save you if you are not a decent human being.

by his logic you are wrong.


You're only saved by accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savir and repenting of your sins. There is no other way.Crushmaster

yes there is, you have kiss Hank's ass

I mean, if homosexuals are so bad, why are they able to have sex and reach an orgasm that way? Wouldn't God have done something to prevent that if he hated the concept of homosexuality so much?

Couple things.

1.What happened to cultures that did not have christianity exported to their lands? Were the natives damned to hell automaticily through the lack of the gospel in that area? Seems rather unfair to me.

2.If a child dies doesn't that child still have orginal sin?

3.Kirk Cameron anyone?

More questions for everyone

1.Have you ever loved someone?

2.Have you ever helped someone?

3.Have you ever sacrificed something for the better good even something small like giving a cookie to a child?

If you aswered yes to all questions by your own admisions you are a loving giving helpfull selfless person. Works both ways TC. The fact that going to heaven or hell rides on grace alone is immoral and sick. Any religion that teaches that my own thoughts can damn be to hell is not for me.

Yes, I will call you old fashioned. Because your blindly following God rather then thinking for yourself and realizing how blatantly sexist that was.

That is God's Order, but, sadly, it has been destroyed in this day and age.

Crushmaster

Sadly? Are you joking? So you'd rather have it back to the days when women couldn't vote and had no rights?
