"We don't know how we came here, but let's study and try to find out and not to give a simple answer like 'God.'"

Atheists don't like God being the answer to that question--for obvious reasons.
That's like saying, "We don't know what two plus two adds up to, so let's not give a simple answer like 'four.'"

I believe the scientific impossibility that nothing created everything--giraffe's, horses, cats, cows, elephants and dogs, all with two eyes, two ears, heart, liver, kidneys and lungs, and having male and female. I believe I'm a primate, that I'm a fish, and I'm a cousin of bananas. I believe I'm intelligent. - I'm an atheist

"For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools..." (Romans 1:18-20).

We do our best, but we are fully aware that “God has chosen the foolishness of preaching to save those who believe” (see 1 Corinthians 1:21).

He chose the weak vessels of human beings to take the message of everlasting life to weak and dying human beings.

Words of Comfort: Thoughts & Actions.

"A morally good God would judge people based on who they define themselves as through actions, not thoughts or belief."

Our thoughts and beliefs govern our actions, and God considers lust to be adultery and hatred to be murder. That’s His standard and there is no changing that. Anything else is a form of idolatry.

Words of Comfort: "I was a Christian..."

"I was a Christian for 25 years."

During your time as a Christian, did you know the Lord? If you say that you did know Him, you are admitting that God is real. If you say that you thought you did, then you didn’t, and you were never a Christian. You faked it all that time. But you are not alone. Many, if not most atheists have had false conversions and that's why they are so adamantly anti-Christian. They heard a false gospel that said that Jesus gives joy and peace and fixes problems, and when what they think is Christianity didn’t deliver the promised goods, they became disillusioned and often bitter.

“The Christian bible says homosexuals should be put to death along with anyone that works on the Sabbath or says your Lord’s name in vain. Oh and unruly children should be stoned to death, and for your information your christian religion is responsible for all the hate towards gays/lesbians in America." Clarence Richmond

Ray Answers: Why should we in America instigate a 3,000 year old Hebrew Law? That makes no sense. That law was for another and ancient culture. In modern America we have our own laws, and as Christians we love you, Jews, homosexuals, and we even love our enemies. So relax. We are not going to stone anyone for anything.

Frodo Underhill Said: “…every other religion gives its adherents hope; that's kind of the point of religion.”

Ray Answers: Your statement shows that you neither know what Christianity delivers or what "religion" offers.

Religion says that if you are good enough and do enough, you may bribe God enough to give you everlasting life. It is hopeless because it can’t deliver its hope. God will not pervert justice by allowing Himself to be bribed. In fact His Word warns “The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to God.” Try and bribe an earthly judge and you will find yourself under the wrath of criminal law. Religious works simply stir more wrath from God for our sin.

Christianity is different. It says that although the Judge is wrath-filled against all wickedness, He is rich in mercy and has provided a Savior. Jesus took the wrath of God’s Justice upon Himself—taking the punishment for our sins. Through His death and resurrection, God can now freely forgive our sins and let us live. He grants us the "gift" of eternal life (see Romans 6:23). We don’t have to strive to earn God’s favor. It’s freely given to us because He is good and kind.

So religion is utterly hopeless, while Christianity delivers eternal salvation from death and Hell to all who repent and trust alone in Jesus.

Richard Notizia said: “How long is eternity? Someday you theists will look back on your words and feel embarrassed.”

Ray Answers: Embarrassed? Never. The Bible says, “Whoever calls upon the name of the Lord shall not be ashamed.” This short life is filled with pain, futility, aging, and then the surety of death—and with this life there is a little joy here and there. In reality, each of us isn’t searching for happiness; rather, we are fighting off unhappiness. We are constantly barraged with problems, sickness and pain. Dentists, doctors, lawyers, and undertaker’s have secure jobs in this life.

But as Christians, we have been given everlasting life, and we are eagerly waiting for God's Kingdom to come to this earth and for His will to be done on this earth as it is in Heaven. That means new bodies with no more futility, aging, tears, pain, suffering or death. God seals those that love Him with the Holy Spirit as a token of good faith. That’s how we can “know” we have everlasting life. When that day comes the Bible says that God will withdraw the dimension of a time, and we enter "eternity." I hope today you’ll join us. See www.NeedGod.com for details.

Gerritjan Boerrigter said: “Every religion claims their God is the only one, and they kill each other for it.”

Ray Answers: Christians don't murder people…ever. We love our enemies. Hypocrites (fake “Christians”) do. To understand the difference between the two you may like to freely listen to “True and False Conversion” on the www.livingwaters.com home page. It's an eye-opener.

Mark Howard said: “Hate to break it to you but you live on planet Earth. Planet Earth is your home.”

Ray Answers: It’s not common knowledge that this planet is our home. We are going to inherit this earth. Jesus said, "Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth." We get it all, but with a huge difference. There will be no more Genesis curse. Everything you see--the beautiful blue ocean, the amazing trees with their incredible fruits, the massive variety of amazing animals, etc., are in a “fallen” state, under the curse of God being devoured by death and corruption. When the curse comes off, there will be no more death and disease. Those who trust in Christ will get new bodies that have no pain, don’t age and never die. It’s then that the lion will lie down with the lamb. How amazing life will be when God's Kingdom comes to this earth, when His will, will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. If you think our hope is that we will be ghostly spooks, playing rusty harps on clouds forever, you are deceived. Forget your preconceptions, and instead read and believe the "exceeding great and precious promises" of the Bible. It’s God’s Word and it will come to pass.

“If moral relativity is unacceptable in your eyes. How about any form of lying? You can lie to save countless lives. Fantasy fiction is lying. Art is lying. Jokes that make people laugh are often laced with lies. Assumptions are often lies we want to believe. Hope can be based on a lie. Lies can be an instrument of survival. Do you realize how hypocritical the bibles moral compass is? It's laced with loopholes and errors.” Adam Miller

In other words, how can we know for sure when lying is morally wrong? The way to know that it's serious when you've violated some civil law is to listen as the judge passes sentence.

So there is your answer as to when something is morally wrong. You will find out on Judgment Day when you face the Judge of the Universe.

In the meanwhile, He forewarns you that “all liars will have their part in the lake of fire,” so it would be wise to forget these worn out scenarios (that attempt to to justify sin) and repent and trust the Saviour.

“Ray. I feel sorry for you that you think your God of infinite love and wisdom could be so narrow-minded as to condemn two consenting adults to death for getting married. Your God seems to mirror your beliefs so perfectly always. That's convenient.” Leonie Trent

Thank you for your sorrow. But I don't need it. You should rather have sorrow for yourself and others who are unsaved. God has condemned all of humanity to death and damnation (not just homosexuals). Perhaps you have noticed that ten out of ten die. But because He is rich in mercy He will grant everlasting life to all who repent and trust alone in Jesus. See www.needGod.com for details.

Someone Said: “Do you believe in talking snakes?”

Ray Answers: Parrots talk. Dogs tell humans when there’s danger. They also “talk” with other dogs. Dolphins communicate with each other. So do whales. Elephant’s converse with each other, and a cat will tell you when he’s hungry. Believers in evolution mock the thought of a snake that can communicate, but they believe the ridiculous notion that they themselves are talking primates.

Morgan Johnston said: “This God allows me to breathe? Does this same God cause children to starve? Why do I, a total non-believer, deserve breath more than any child deserves a family that is able to provide for it?”

Ray Answers: There's enough food to spread around. Human selfishness (sin) is the problem, not God. Think of our priorities--of how much we spend on armaments, and searching space for intelligent life…hundreds of billions of dollars. That could feed a lot of hungry kids.

If you believe evolution, just deal with kids starving to death. Your worldview is “survival of the fittest.” Starvation is no big deal. It's cold, it’s hard, and it’s a nasty belief. The Christian worldview, however, clothes the naked, feeds the hungry, takes care of the poor, and heals the sick.

Jarrett Roberts said: “Nature created us this way. I laugh in the face of your fictitious God...”

Ray Answers: It is scientifically ludicrous to say that Nature made itself. For Nature to make itself, it had to be pre-existent, before it made itself. Whatever created us had to be eternal and non-material. Nature is none of these things. God is both. He is outside of the dimension of time (eternal) and He is Spirit.

He will also get the last laugh: “Because you disdained all my counsel, and would have none of my rebuke, I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your terror comes, when your terror comes like a storm, and your destruction comes like a whirlwind, when distress and anguish come upon you…” (Proverbs 1:25-27). So forget your image of God like some sort of passive celestial Santa Claus. He is nothing like what you conceive Him to be. The “god” you don’t believe in doesn’t exist. He is a figment of you fertile imagination (the place of imagery). The God who is revealed in Scripture is the one you have to face, whether you believe in Him or not.

Estelle Bjoring said: "It's not about Ray. It's about the fairytales Christians and other religion followers believe in and the seeds they try to plant among the gullible."

Ray Answers: It's condescending to look down on people who don't believe as atheists do--the scientific impossibility that nothing created everything (or the silliness that nothing is actually something), that there's no ultimate right or wrong, and that death is the end (when they don't have any idea what happens after death).

Creation/Nature makes the existence of God axiomatic. It's an intellectual embarrassment to have to point out His existence. That's why the Bible calls the atheist a "fool" (see Psalm 14:1).

I often have proud people burst into a crowd (when I'm open air preaching) and act as though they are the intellectual saviour of these poor peasants that haven't the brains to judge what I'm saying. People aren't as dumb as you make out. They have thought out the issues of life and death, and when they understand that God has deliberately chosen foolish-sounding stories to trap the proud in their arrogance, the entire Bible makes sense. They soften their heart, do what it says (repent and trust alone in Jesus) and they come to know God personally. Argument over.

Matthew Chamberlain said: "Why if the Bible is God's word and the church his house, do they have lightning conductors."

Ray Answers: For the same reason church buildings have a roof. It rains. Contrary to popular opinion, being struck by lightning isn't a sign of divine displeasure. Christians get wet when it rains, bruise when they fall, and sometimes die when they are shot. If a Christian is hit by lightning it would be because he is standing in a vulnerable place. Still, if he is a Christian, he has everlasting life so his death is nothing serious.

Ed Severson said: "Ray. You're a liar. The scientific theory of evolution is becoming stronger and more people are learning about it and applying it in medical science. Evolution is evidence based. Your ancient religion is faith based. Do you even know what a myth is? You should feel really bad about lying to your sheep on this matter. You're a bad person."

Ray Answers: That a classic Ad hominem (to abuse the opponent and ignore the argument). How about you instead offer one piece of scientific evidence for Darwinian evolution--a change of kinds (not adaptation or speciation). You can't do it, because there isn't any. It’s based on nothing but unobservable blind faith. If you don't believe that, listen to your own experts: www.evolutionVsGod.com

I don't mind you calling me a bad person because I'm a sinner by nature, but I take your public accusation of me being a liar very seriously. It is libelous, and so I have to ban you as I have banned others for saying the same thing. I don't think it will upset you because you have consistently disliked everything I have said. Still, I'm sorry to see you go.

"Read the Bible, witness the contradictions. The devil kills ten. God kills millions. You do the math." Matthew Chamberlain

Ray answers: God kills billions not millions. The Scriptures reveal that He is the ultimate Judge. Every human being will die because He proclaimed the death sentence on the entire race. It is His Word that says "the soul that sins shall die." Do the math. Ten out of ten die, and our death is proof that in His eyes the best of us are wicked criminals, justly deserving capital punishment.

But He is also "rich in mercy," willing to forgive, and He proved His great love for us by suffering on the cross and defeating death. If you want to live see www.needGod.com

Someone Said: "Why do Christians get divorced at the same rate non-christians do, when marriage is a union under God; surely He could keep the marriage working?”

Ray Answers: The modern unbiblical message that says that God has a wonderful plan for your life, and that He offers peace and prosperity to all who come to Him, has filled the Church with false converts. Jesus called them goats among the sheep. They are the ones who lie, steal, commit adultery and fail to remain true to marriage vows. The Bible warns that hypocrites will be sorted out from the true converts on the Day of Judgment. For details check out Matthew 7:21-23 and then www.needGod.com

Someone Said: "Why does Jesus want you to eat his flesh and drink his blood?"

Ray Answers: His statements were obviously symbolic. This is how you can know that. When He passed the cup of wine to His disciples and said "This is my blood," His physical blood was still in His veins. It wasn't in the cup. When He passed the bread to them and said that it was His flesh, He flesh stayed on His body. They didn't eat Him. They instead ate the bread He passed them. When He told them that He was the "door," it was symbolic of the fact that He is the only way to eternal life, and that He wasn't a physical door with hinges.
