I used to deceive myself like this in the past.Jesus is supposed to be powerful right?This same power doesn't extend to people that claim he is their best friend.Now,just imagine Bill Gates as your best friend,would you be at your current level?Jesus is totally unnecessary,and that shit about him saving the whole world from sin by dying on the cross doesn't even make sense.Life will be so much easier if Jesus was real and powerful as claimed.People who claim Jesus is their best friend still die from accidents,natural disasters,get murdered and raped and suffer from many terrible things you can imagine.So how useful is this personality called Jesus?The promise of heaven?

Make Him your friend you will then understand. Forgotten the school of thought you borrowed this ideology but almost all renowned philosophers believed in the existence of a supreme being.

Jesus did not promise his followers that it would be easy for them here on earth rather, He ensued them to be faithful till the end so as to merit the Crown of Glory. This is the primary reason He created us; to conquer the world and return back to Him...any other reason is secondary.

He is asking you my dear, what have you done for Him? I am not worthy in anyway to claim to be His friend or godly...but I strive to stand up to continue the heavenly race each time I fall.

Thanks OP for sharing.

Cool imaginary friend you've got!

Yeah. . .

So imaginary that He's far more better than you.

Notwithstanding, my Jesus isn't imaginary. How?

When I read His Word, His face looks more clearer and you're able to see Him more clearly. His Word is a mirror of whom He His. . . to me.


2Timothy 4:1: I solemnly charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and by His appearing and His kingdom


2 Timothy 4:8
in the future there is laid up for me the crown of
righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge,
will award to me on that day; and not only to m[e,
but also to all who have loved His appearing.



Assuredly, He will appear at His Judgment seat and you will stand before Him in awe, you will marvel in amazement in shock thinking you must be dreaming.

All said and done!

He is truly a friend. A 24/7 friend. One that even transcends time. Without Him I am nothing. Living without him is living in the past, in caves, using stones to make a fire; the stone age man. I become ancient, obsolete and outdated! Finding Jesus is the greatest thing that ever happened to me. Now I know what civilization truly is!!

you don't have the Holy Spirit with you, and that's why you don't believe. That's a fact and truth on its own part amongst many.

I believe because the strong feeling that makes me believe is from the conviction of what Christ did for us. The Holy Spirit convicted me, and by so doing, I eventually had that strong 'feeling' which made me believe.

it's d truth. I'll leave u wit this: D truth is never scared of Probing/cross examination.


And I will leave you with this also: "Faith comes by hearing, and hearing, by the Word of God"

When you read God's Word, you're hearing Him speak. The Word carries the necessary and essential truth that provides every answers to my [ignorant] question.

Shut up, first you people plagiarized the bible and stole all our revered apostles, prophets and Jesus too.

Secondly this is not the Islamic section. Blasphemy is calling Jesus a mere prophet.

Sam,

To become Jesus' friend, you need to surrender your life to Him, and open the door of your heart to let Him come in.

Sam, Jesus is waiting for you with arms open and stretched wide to receive you, and love you like no man on earth has ever did.

Just come as you are, sam.

He's waiting. Time matters, and more importantly, the salvation of your precious soul.

Please, don't hesitate to mention me if you like to know more about our Jesus, and your loving Father whom is your Lord and Savior.

Some white people turned up a few hundred years ago with a book claiming it is the Word of God and so many people foolishly fell for that.
Ask them if God wrote it they start going round in circles and arrive nowhere.
The funny thing is anyone with half a brain can research where it came from to confirm it is the Word of Man
Somehow the story book of Hebrew people is the Word of God.
Ever wondered why did this God not have even one scene in the whole bible script for black people?
We are told God put Adam into a deep sleep and fashionEd Eve from his side and that is Okay. We are told our own stories and myths are foolish.
We are told God sent manna from heaven to feed them for forty years in the desert on the way to the promised Land but our own myths are foolish
God parted the sea for them to walk on dry land and that is totally normal. Jehovah does that sort of thing all the time for Hebrews after all he stopped the movement of the sun so they could win a war but our own stories are foolish
We are told when Jehovah was angry with Hebrews he sent snakes to kill them and to stop it they made an image of a snake and when they looked at it they were healed but when we make images it is idolatry

However, instead of taking this the long way, why don't you be straight forward, and go straight to your points.

Prognose:






After Jesus had taken the vinegar, he said, "It is finished!" Then he bowed his head and died
.



And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised

I didn't die for anybody

Sam, I know what you feel. I also feel the same way.

After accepting Christ's Lordship over one's life, one is bound to face temptation, challenges and setbacks, but such is only for us to endure and to strengthen our desire for Christ, and not make us complain or curse God like satan virtually made Job curse God, due to his appalling and dire condition.

It shouldn't make you think Jesus is not with you or does not know what you're going through. His word tells us that "Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because,
having stood the test, that person will receive the crown
of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him. -James1:12"


Secondly, your friend's right. Thank the Lord Jesus you have such a friend who inspires you by sharing God's meesage. Having a relationship with Christ is with a steadfast heart and devoted hope, faith and trust in Him.

Sam, having a relationship with Christ comes by;

• Talking to him by spending at least an hour with Him anytime you want to talk to Him via prayer in everyday and moment in life.

• Reading and hearing His Word. You need to believe in it and act on it.

• Doing His will and obeying His commandment.

• Praising and worshiping Him at all time with your heart.

• Loving Him with all your heart, soul, mind and strength [Luke 10:27].

Sam, these are the five major keys in having a good relationship with Christ the Lord.

Now, ask yourself, "what am I missing amongst these?"

3 question, i will like to ask is
1-why does no one practice christainity in jerusalem
2-why jews never believed injesus and your bible claim that they are God chosen
3- explain how jesus died for the sin of mankind while we still have fornicators, homosexaul, trannies and bisexual today
4- jesus is not having the qualitities of messiah as describe in talmud
explain?

Give your life to Christ, read your Bible everyday, ask for God's divine interpretation of his word and you will the answer to your questions. There is only one messiah and that is Jesus Christ described in the Bible.
