Is It Just A Coincidence?

if you want to talk about a real coincidence talk about how the commonly depicted christian god looks an awful lot like zeusDman0017

Do you purposely create these threads just to draw the wrong type of attention?kulmiye

Stating his opinion, is not "purposely create(ing) threads just to draw the wrong attention."

I've seen countless "Why God isn't real," or "Reasons why christianity is false." Why haven't you said anything about those?

You told me I should think about Christ. But clearly I have only one life to live so who want to spend that thinking. I just do bro. Thinking just takes up to much of my time.Wilfred_Owen

If Heaven and Hell is real, and you go to Hell, you'll have plenty of time to think about it when you're in Hell. Spend the time to think about it now, to save you from an eternity in Hell.

Don't take this the wrong way, please, I'm just saying why you should think about it now.

Yes I know! How comforting it is to know that Jesus loves and forgives us! No matter how many times we may mess up!

Christianity treats women with respect? Women are the property of men in the Bible. How is that respect? The Bible has advanced scientific information? The Bible, if taken literally, says that the world doesn't move and is a circle with four corners. How is that scientific? Think of it. Now, answer these questions.Genetic_Code

Where does in the Bible, does it say that?

If you walk around telling people your God's son and then wow them with magic tricks making them believe, then those people write you down in a book which then is told over the course of 2000 years as being fact, then your going to fool some people.

Jesus is part of the trinity (God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit) and God is ALIVEin Heaven, so Jesus can love us.

Furthermore, Jesus rose from the dead on the third day, and later went to Heaven. Thus, he never stayed dead.

What if there isn't? I would rather be safe then sorry.

This would go well in your blog

[QUOTE="super_mario_128"][QUOTE="Crushmaster"] You should think about it. Because your eternal destiny depends on it. In Christ, Crushmaster.Schultz38

No, considering that it isn't as you describe it.CptJSparrow

I'll believe what I wanna believe thanks. Take your spreading somewhere else. :)Maniacc1

I've read a lot of people saying how "God isn't real," etc. on the "Off Topic Discussion." Now it's my turn to state my opinion:)

. Christianity treats women with respect. Crushmaster

Best joke I've heard all week

Thank you :V

On women:

"If you notice among the captives a beautiful woman and are attracted to her, you may take her as your wife. Bring her into your home and have her shave her head, trim her nails and put aside the clothes she was wearing when captured. After she has lived in your house and mourned her father and mother for a full month, then you may go to her and be her husband and she shall be your wife. If you are not pleased with her, let her go wherever she wishes. You must not sell her or treat her as a slave, since you have dishonored her." -Deuteronomy 21:11-14

On the world being a circle:

"He sits enthroned above the circle of the earth, and its people are like grasshoppers. He stretches out the heavens like a canopy, and spreads them out like a tent to live in." -Isaiah 40:22

On the world having four corners.

"And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth." -Isaiah 11:11-12

1.What's wrong with preaching?

2.If you don't like what he's saying, don't comment.

3.He stating his opinion, just like other people have. Again, why don't you get mad at those people?

1. Jesus Christ, one Man, one Person, has changed people, lives, and the world in general unlike any other. 2. Christianity treats women with respect. 3. Christianity calls for holy living. Christianity says that salvation is by grace, through faith in Jesus Christ as repentance. 4. Christianity is unique. 5. Christianity is, many times, singled out for ridicule more than any other religion. 6. The Bible has advanced scientific information; or, it did for the time it was written. 7. The Bible has never been shown to be in error. 8. The Bible and its principles cover every area of life, basically; if you're not sure about something morally, you can go to it and find the answer. Christ has taken people we call very wicked and changed them. I could undoubtedly put much more. Just think about Christ, Jesus Christ - the impact He's had and is continuing to have on this world. Think about how, unlike other religions, rather than lowering women, it exalts them. Think of how it says works cannot save you, only faith in Jesus Christ and repentance has. Think of its uniqueness! I pointed out all these things above, but I wanted to re-emphasize them. Think of these I have re-emphasized, and all of the other things above. Think of it. Now, answer this question. Is It Just A Coincidence...just a coincidence of how perfect, how awesome, how amazing, how unique Christ and Christianity is? Voice your thoughts in the poll. Please Note: This topic's purpose is evangelism. Please keep the discussion around Christian/faith/religious-based subjects; creation vs. evolution, the infallibility of the Bible, God, et cetera; and, of course, the poll question. Also, please refrain from spamming and off-topic postings. Thank you. God bless, Crushmaster.Crushmaster

1. Many artists and art itself, music, single experiences, people in ones life etc etc are life changing factors as well.

2. By your definition of Christianity women should not participate in politics and the army as your About Me tab in your profile says. This is inequality and therefore lack of respect.

3. By your definition of Christianity works are just filthy rugs. Boy you need to have a consensus sometimes. You cant come one time, say one thing and then later say the opposite. Either clarify or stop contradicting yoursleves.

4. All religions are unique in their own way.

5. That probably happens because it is the most popular religion and popularity of a religion is not a valid argument

6. A claim refuted many times in past evangelising threads

7. Same as above

8. Just because it comes in handy in everything doesnt mean its valid. If you are unsure about something morally you can look up Plato, Aristotle and Socrates and many other philosophers.

How can he be alive if he isn't even a living being ? :/

I wouldn't say that christianity is the one true faith. However, God is the one and only mighty ruler. I used to call myself a Christian, but I do not like to be grouped in to all the fakeness. The people and the church are sometimes too fake for me.

I've made a new religion (well not really..) but I prefer to call myself a "man of God" rather than a Christian.

And mind you we are talking about Crushmaster's version of Christianity.

Also, moderators should lock this thread as it has no point whatsoever other than projecting ones religion as the right one and seeking for approval.
