englishmart:
what happpens if a Christian is God fearing, prayerful, and follows all of God's commands but doesn't attend church fellowships?
Depends on what caused you not to make time for church. Were you evangelizing?, were you sleeping?......answer and you will have answered your question.

frm this..i grab that yu only provide evidence to those who believe in it...ryt?..or smtin like that...i.e if u dnt believe in a soul..u wont have one...and vice versa ryt?

Bt the soul is potrayed as a characteristic present in all humans capable of taking decisions of its own and capable of eida receiving of eternal pain(hell) or praising an eternal god for eternity?...i.e the soul is a materializzed form..
Thats what i asked u to prove(its existence)..if u cant say u cant...nt telling me it shows to those who believe in it...
Stop right there, your initial premise is wrong.Read what I wrote again,slowly this time.
Please don't use shorthand.

They are doing exactly that, at an alarming rate. Religion will end when everyone gains unlimited access to WIFI 24 hours a day. It's really as simple as that. These are unprecedented times. Religion may have evaded termination for millenia but WIFI technology only started about 10 years ago. We are now being inundated with information at a rate that surpasses every other generation circa 2005.

Give it 10 more years. Everything now shrouded in darkness will be exposed. The age of information is upon us.
If Christianity is a hoax it will fail, the bible is its own witness.Otherwise....

Come to think of it peter preached and in a night 3000 souls gave their lives to christ imagine the resources and technology he had at his disposal.

Billy graham came in his time and using resources and technology available then preached to over 200 million people,God knows how many of those gave their lives to christ.

Do the math, guy, am praying for free WIFI sef.

U believe in the soul ryt?
If yes...then i jst asked a meager stuff..which is prove it..and u said im tryna insult u..or i dnt even knw ur endpoint...i asked smtin very little
Soul is intricate and borders very deep into religious matters, not every religious person believes there is soul.

When I said get it together I meant your priorities with rergards to your "search", first you eat,then you philosophize. I don't do insults.

Your bible god would be the creator only if Messi and Shaq wore the same size shoes.

In fact, the bible god is described as a human being with anger and other emotional issues.

He used to wrestle, as in hand to hand combat, with human beings. No disrespect, but it's easy to rule out terrible options even without having an answer.
I've looked into many ancient shamanism and herbalist cultures. Your god sounds and behaves like theirs. Anthropomorphic, unstable, violent, rewards with gold and mansions and women etc.
You seem to have it figured ,way to go,now all you have to do is fold your arms and watch as it retires in human history of past religions and from what you wrote up there it's sympathizers should be coming to their senses any minute now all thanks you.

Let's see. I've linked up with the humans who claim that they speak with your bible god, who, btw, is not the creator.
The real creator is a collection of sub atomic particles.
"is not the creator", is that your accession or they pointed that out?

Nope. Lets assume we find a Rolex watch on the beach and then you begin to tell me that watchmaker has a wife and three children, his oldest child being 7 years old. Just like that. Out of the blue. You even write it down.

When I ask you to provide evidence of your watchmaker claims, you tell me to listen to My heart.
Need I remind you that if you bite and chew your tongue you really haven't ate any meat at all?

Reads like something you pulled off the Internet, I didn't expect you to relate this with God, now am confused how much you really think you know.

How certain or uncertain are you of God's existence?,let's start here.

Granted.
So what supernatural evidence has been doubted by the(some) human mind, for years now.
You are here asking me for them,the fact the you can't notice them needs urgent address first. The irony is that after they are addressed, evidence will be last thing on your mind. : )

Christians who don't go to church on Sunday are usually pressured by other churchgoers, so it's not really a free choice. The Bible says not to forsake the assembly of the brethren also. However, going to church is not entirely bad. Praise worship with aggressive dancing is good for those who want to lose weight. Practical sermons e.g. the ones Pastor Bimbo Odukoya used to give are useful too.


It happens in some churches. In others, pastors don't choose for you but they can refuse to conduct the marriage if your partner is not a member of the church, because they don't want to lose your tithes membership. The Bible doesn't say a man MUST find a wife by himself by the way.


Are you a repressed homosexual? It's typical for repressed homosexuals to see homosexuality everywhere even if no one said anything about it. I didn't say anything about homosexuality. I have no interest in it.

But yes, masturbation is normal. Ask any doctor. Also, it's normal to be moved by the sight of an attractive person. You are not committing adultery in your heart by responding to what you see. That's what I am saying.

If you teach people that witches exist and could be responsible for their problems in life, it is inevitable that some people will be falsely accused of witchcraft and mistreated. False beliefs cause people to make bad decisions. An atheist could never think someone is a witch not to mention harming the person because he knows that there are no witches.
They say get your facts right before you distort them as you please, half of what you are saying isnt even properly applied,the other half is probably a new bible you have.

Christianity not based on evidence? Jeez. So I've been wasting my time on NL?
I thought the bible was evidence that there is a non human designer.
It is along with everything else in this world,but that's not what you want right?, and that's what I referred to in my last post.

More than enough has been done in the search for God, yet we find nothing. Google the search for God and you will know that there are people who have spent their entire lives on the search for God. If there is a God that wants to be found we would find it, until then people should not believe in something that seems to be nothing more than a made up being. BTW, what would you say of a father that waits for his child to'find'him instead of showing himself without even being asked?

If you can prove that your God exists and is the good that the Bible talks about, your quotes from the Bible would not be taken seriously.

You asked a couple of questions so lemme try and address em as orderly as I can,

Standing in a garage doesn't make you a car, shuffling through bible pages doesn't constitute search,not just that anyways.

I don't encourage blind belief either, people must ask questions and prude diligently for answers. I blame half baked and self professed Christians who have slept on their oars,the ones from old did a better job.

So why won't God just reveal himself,well that's a long one,I will post the link to that thread.

In relation to prove read my replies.on this thread,but in summary you aren't getting any.

You keep saying God God God without answering who is God.

I don't care that he's evil or is a megalomaniac. That's not the point. Genghis Khan was evil, and people served out of fear.

But Genghis Khan was real and punishment for crime was swift.

So tell me how do I seek your deity since the bible provides no evidence?
I will take the last bit, I don't know how the rest pertains to what I have typed thus far.

You won't find any "evidence" that you won't doubt,the human mind was made that way and that's the reason why Christianity isn't based on evidence,it can be fabricated and twisted as need be.Won't you agree?
Christianity EtcRe: Atheists Pls Identify Your Leaning Here. ID Yourself Properly by Eddlad: 8:00pm On Jul 30, 2016
If Christianity is real it can't be fought, if it ain't it will eventually retire into man's historic books of past religions.
If I were an atheist I wouldnt waste my time,energy and megabyte over it.

Because a potential designer is not a chemistry course under Dr. ( ).
Professors don't read minds or there would be no point for the exam.

Once again, do you have anything in the book to show that the persons writing were not high on sacred drugs or lying through their teeth about speaking to a creator?

Note that there are two issues to prove here. The first is that the writers spoke to a non human entity at all.

The second is whether the alien entity with whom they spoke did in fact create the universe.
I made it quite clear early on,The crust of my post was to emphasize that not enough is done in search for God. God doesn't own anyone anything, "seek and ye shall find", not the other way round.

You doubt the bible itself and hence it's accounts, so how will my quote of it serve as proof of any sort?

Yes. The fact that the claims in the text cannot be substantiated by reality, ie. no magic can be produced by following the directions in it, means that we are compelled to seek other kinds of proof.

Another kind of proof could be a clear revelation that only a non sm would have known back then.
Wrong foundation for someone who wants to search for God,and note the word SEARCH because that's what it's all about.

I wonder why people diligently pursue their jobs and courses and expect to find God for themselves after some half baked pursuit......

You can't get good at even story telling after a few tries,imagine the audacity saying "no magic can be produced by following the directions in it".

No. Thats the point. Humans THEN lacked the technology to reveal a lot of natural phenomena. But a potential creator WOULD know everything and could use their ignorance to serve as proof to future skeptics.
"could",are you in doubt because he didn't?.

Thanks for the offer. I may have been reading too fast and possibly skipped over the passages with the authentication. Can you point out those passages which indicate that the writers were:

1. Communicating with a non human being

2. The non human was the creator of the universe
You don't believe God exists, how exactly will these passages help you,after all whoever wrote could just as easily added those two bits.

You don't know what you don't know and so you don't even know what to search for. There is hope though.
