Christianity EtcRe: It Is Dishonest To Describe Atheism As A Lack Of Belief In God (silly Atheism) by Joshthefirst(m): 8:06am On Oct 15, 2013
Logicboy03: Personally, I think it is a misunderstanding of atheism. Here is a scale to help



https://wp.patheos.com.s3.amazonaws.com/blogs/unreasonablefaith/files/2012/10/dawkins-scale.png


Number 1 and 7 are irrational. You cant 100% prove it either way

6 is default atheism

2 is default theism.


I dont know why it is so hard.
so what number are you?

Christianity EtcRe: Stop Kidding Yourself. You Do Not And Cannot Love God. by Joshthefirst(m): 8:00am On Oct 15, 2013
plaetton: I have asked you before, what is your obsession with my sinning?.
The only sin that I admit to is the love of XXXsy(which I am not even sure is a sin).

Do you not love xxxsy as well?. Pls answer me.

I have no apologies to your god for that.
see how you shamelessly contradict yourself. I'm not obsessed with your sin. Heck! You admitted to me that you're a godless fornicator. And you're here clkaiming to love others before loving God. How is it hard for you to understand that if you really love others you won't sin. The fact that your meaningless post even got likes shows the bible was right talking about you guys:

...Thinking themselves to be wise, they became fools.
Even general shepherd...smh

See as all of them dey call me hypocrite in different threads for preaching to them. Meanwhile they admit they're guilty sinners. Smh

plaetton: You see?
This the example of how really hypocritical you are, most of you.
Do you have comprehension problems or is just xx.cy?

You cannot put the cart before the horse, you silly rabbit, lol. Such tricks are for kids.
You want to know god first before you know love,even when your bible says the reverse. Slowpoke.

Your bible says ABCD and then you twist to read DCBA.

You are simply irredeemable.
grin people liked this post!
And you tell me you read the bible. Your ignorance and the ignorance of those who liked this post just proves my point that the bible is discerned spiritually. See how he just hung on to a single verse and is dancing because he thinks it agrees with his human mentality. Smh

I'm gonna have to open a thread on love then. Maybe you guys will be convicted from there.
You're calling me a hypocrite yet you do not love your neighbour talk less of God?
Christianity EtcRe: Stop Kidding Yourself. You Do Not And Cannot Love God. by Joshthefirst(m): 7:44pm On Oct 14, 2013
plaetton: Now, if you understand what i wrote in the op and you understand what your bible said about same, there is no contradiction.

It is a shame that it takes an atheist to remind you that if you do not know love, you do not know god.
If you do not express unconditional love to your neighbor, your sister and your brother (not necessarily related by blood) , and to all living creatures, then you do not know love, and therefore cannot know god, let alone love god.
That is very simple, isn't it?
So, in that context, God is indeed love, a love you cannot know or partake of until you cultivate love within you an d unconditionally express such.
Comprendo?
smh. I understood what you wrote in the op.
I don't need an atheist to remind me of God's word.

If God is love, you do not know love then. That's what I've been trying to point out to you. You cannot love unconditionally like God without knowing God and having his love in your heart. If you love completely, you would be free from sin, love covers all sin. You just admitted that you enjoy sinning. So man I'm tryna preach. I'm tryna say that if you want to truly love your neighbour as yourself, then you must have Gods love within you. (Comprende? grin)

GeneralShepherd: Chibuebem/ joshthefirst is just a super troll,just ignore him
troll? Now I'm a troll? Lol. The names I've been called grin

@plaetton: for petes sake plaetton I asked a simple question. Since you agree with that verse pointed out, do you agree with these verses?

1 John 4:8 Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love
And these verses?
1john4:9 This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. 10 This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our SINS

^written in the same epistle?
By the same man under inspiration of the holy spirit

Where's the mumbo jumbo there?

plaetton: ^^^
I hope Joshthefirst is reading it and understanding it instead of clinging to his meaningless mumbo jumbo babbles.

I always find it very interesting how simple truths are sidestepped and swapped with meaningless mumbo jumbos.
I read it and related to it and understood it perfectly sir. I hope you did too.

So you agree with that verse? Its from the bible remember?

Now do you agree with this verse from the same epistle?
1 John 4:8 Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love
And these verses?
1john4:9 This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. 10 This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.

Logicboy03: Corrupt?

I am very honourable. In fact, everyone here knows what I'm capable of. I state my intentions loud and clear.

Unlike you christian snakes that play PDP politics.

You that was enjoying when christians were derailing the non-xtian thread? You want to judge me? lol

I'd rather jump in hellfire before I let hypocrite christians like you judge me.

I have my shortcomings, but hell will freeze before I hear it coming from you.


cool
I'm not trying to judge you. I'm your friend am I not? (grin abeg don't start denying me grin)

Me? Enjoying when they derailed your thread? Chai.

When did you even see me viewing that thread when it was being derailed, talk less of enjoying it...smh

I am not a snake. That's an irony in fact.

Christians are not snakes. True christians are christ-like sir. Christ loves and has your best interests at heart.

But the only thing christ could give the arrogant pharisees who thought they could do no wrong was the law and conviction sir.

Just do good to reduce the arrogance and cussing sir. The world does not revolve around you. It actually revolves around God, Christ. He is the centre. Look beyond yourself.

Logicboy03: oh, I am used to this by now

-A girl (christian) insults logicboy
-Then a guy (christian) comes to support the girl
-The guy calls her feisty/strong willed/vixen etc


You christians need to be sensible. You guys are so predictable.


Sir, did you not see where she conceded that she doesnt know me?
Sir, is it a coincidence that you're also a christian?
Sir, it is a fact- the average Nigerian is a religious bigot and it is more evident in females. Bigotry is stewpid.
Even if she insulted you logicboy, can't you be an honourable man and refuse to insult? Is it possible for you to speak without arrogance and cussing?

Forgive me for expecting too much from you

plaetton: Delusions.
I just wrote out a long list of evils things that your yahweh did in the bible, and you are still insisting on God's love.

Is he schizophrenic or are you suffering from cognitive disonance ?

I read the same bible as you, and I have not come across any act of love by Yahweh in any shape or form.

Just look how many threats are contained in your post?
If you and your god need to threaten people for not acknowledging or loving him, then you and your imaginary daddy are wacko birds with deep self-esteem issues.

" The pre-eminence of any system, philosophical or religious, is measured by the quality of it's outputs"

If your religion was any real or meaningful, you would not be begging people to please come and love your skydaddy with you.
lol.
now you're just mocking and acting blind. I'm sure you didn"t even take time to read my posts. I might be preaching to you now. But you will soon stand before God in judgement. We'll see how you'll laugh then.

[quote author=david_hume]As i said earlier:
The fact that God NEEDED to create is an

attribute of imperfection.

To create is to bring about "change".

ANY sort of change to a perfect state of

being is an embellishment.

Therefore, God is not a perfect entity to begin with[/quote]God extended his perfection to earth and made everything good

To create is to cause to exist.

Christianity EtcRe: John....Heavy words jesus spoke by Joshthefirst(op): 11:21am On Oct 14, 2013
Here's one of my recent favorites. Linked to the 'I AM THAT I AM' thread I created before:

John 8:58 Jesus replied, I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, before Abraham was born, I AM.

Wow! No man has ever been bold enough to make the claims this God man made.
In my opinion, based on the fact and reality of the what Jesus has done in my life, I believe him. I believe he's the son of God, saviour of the world

I believe he's God-with-us. God-among-us.
God-in-us

Blessed be the name of the lord
Christianity EtcJohn....Heavy words jesus spoke by Joshthefirst(op):
The apostle John has a beautiful poetic style of writing that I thoroughly enjoy. I love reading the gospel of John especially, and the first epistle
He has a way with words.
He seems to honour words too, as most of the very heavy words Jesus spoke were recorded by him.

You can post some of the verses you think are influential from him here. I'll post mine.
Jesus made claims, very heavy claims that baffle men today. You can also post what you think of Jesus here on this thread.

I would rather you stay logged in as him. grin

Truthfully now, I don't know much about you just as I said from start safe for the little I have seen around. But I see that a few respect and listen to you, so it will be wrong of me to just judge you based on the little facts I have on my finger tips. But, there is a lesson I needed you to learn.

I will pay a closer attention to you and try to draw out your strength.

I think I may end up liking you too. grin

Change:
verb (used with object)
1. to make the form, nature, content, future course, etc., of (something) different from what it is or from what it would be if left alone

By "causing to exist", God has altered the course of something, and made it different from what it would be if left alone.
If God was perfect, why embellish that perfection with creation?[/quote]shocked
'If left alone'huh
Do you know what it means to cause something to exist?
How would it be left alone if it didn't exist?

SMH.....give up....you have nothing
chai...did you do geography as a subject at any level?
Smh
A cataclysmic flood event carry huge sediments would rapidly bury even marine organisms under water and have very large depositing effects.
Christianity EtcRe: Atheism Is Irrational. by Joshthefirst(m): 9:58am On Oct 14, 2013
Logicboy03: To be honest, the fossils in high places was the only coherent argument on the site.

I didnt know the answer...but google helps



"The most important thing to know about this is that plate tectonics causes mountains to be formed by pushing up areas that used to be under water perhaps millions of years ago. Even many high mountain ranges, for example the Himalayan Mountains, the Rocky Moutains, and the Alps, were formed this way. The second thing to know is that sea level has changed over time, so at some places marine fossils will be dry land now even if the land hasn't risen. However, that's a small altitudinal effect relative to mountain building"
smh.
So the fossils were there before the high mountain ranges were formed?

How is it that marine and land organisms were buried together?
How come evidences show a RAPID and MASS burial of organisms?

There are even orgainsms founnd rapidly buried and fossilized as they were giving birth, or swallowing their prey?

There are many questions your evolution beliefs cannot answer, but when we look at things in light of the flood and bibilical accounts, they fit in right where they belong. Should I start quoting scripture for you?

Soft tissue was even recently found on a dinosaur bone. It is scientifically impossible for soft tissue to last 'millions of years'
