The Bible: designed to keep you feeling guilty, helpless, and unworthy of anything your entire pathetic lives

No it doesn't, You're just another fool.

You need to be born again....you are not held under the penalty of breaking Gods Law. That wage was paid by Jesus Christ. Because you do not understand you mock what you do not understand. How smart is that....oh you have an agenda!

It is my experience that people who lash out at God and the Bible are the ones suffering the most. They are jealous, envious, covetous people who cannot stand to see someone deal with life on life's terms and with the comfort of God and His Divine Word. So miserable as they are, they seek to cause as many as they can to question their faith. It must suck to be so miserable.

I love Jesus. I love the Bible. I love my life

FYI, op, the matrix is a movie. Its not what humans are really about.

Please lay off the controlled opposition called TV.

Op reminds me of the guy or girl that didn't get the girl/guy he wanted. She/he ran off and married a man/woman who believed in Jesus. And now op is forever burnt by not only a real man/woman , but also the Divine Creator, Himself. Such anger from the op. Why hate a group of people that you don't even have to be with.

Someone hurt the op. And bad.

Lol priceless.

Jesus said

who is not with us is against us.

There you go, everyone that is not with jesus is the adversary

there is no space for inclusiveness in the gospel.

the perspective is exclusion, it excludes anything that is not the gospel of jesus

The bible gives you nothing but hope, thanksgiving and praise to the FATHER giving HIS SON to die for our sins and to send the HOLY SPIRIT to live with us and guide us. HE knows we can not live the perfect life and when we trust HIM, HE alone saves us, remembers our sins no more and that is a blessed hope!

READ IT

FFS

That is true for the New Testament (except Revelation), but the Old Testament is death for every offense. Disobey your daddy, death by stoning. Prostitute yourself, death, worship idols, death. Somom was tuened into glass.

Where is that hope again?

What do you know about it? You're using the internet, fuckwad.

Thread: GOD is totally omnipotent and ALL powerful..NOTHING thrwarts his plans EVER.

The Bible is designed to show you the good and acceptable way to manage this life, give mankind answers on the purpose of this earthly life, and how God gave us the provision to live eternally with Him. Jesus is the theme that runs throughout the Scriptures from the first verse of Genesis to the last verse of Revelation. No one has an excuse to deny or reject Him.

This is not correct. Jesus is evident throughout the Scriptures, starting in Genesis. Read it all again. Pray and read and you'll get it.

GOD is totally omnipotent and ALL powerful..NOTHING thrwarts his plans EVER.
Yep...he plans ahead alright.

Because he is all knowing and all seeing...alpha and omega...beginning and the end.

He is at the beginning of time and also at the end.

Nothing escapes his notice or intention.

Take Hell for instance...that hellish torture pit he intends to burn trillions of people alive in forever..

He set that up as well..cause he THINKS and PLANS.

He knew long before he created anyone that billions of beings he was about to create were destined to be tortured by being burnt alive forever by him in a place he created JUST for that purpose.

He is also a TORTURE expert and has seen to it that the people in hell suffer to the UTMOST every second of their eternity..

being so compassionate and merciful God also saw to it that there would be NO correction there..

NO rehab..

and NO WAY OUT..

a Just and fair "Punishment" of eternal duration for the mere sin of being created and born into a world where life generally sux..

followed by an even more suckful eternity.

But he planned ahead for that too by slaughetring his own son

Jesus DIED to save us from this place he INTENDED us to go to..

the place HE created to roast the vast majority of people alive in unbearable agony forever.

He died to save us from HIS JUSTICE..

to save us from HIMSELF really..

after all..

HE RUNS and MAINTAINS HELL..

PLUS..

he created every torture device there..

HE creates the flames by the word of his mouth..

HE knows every bit of agony that goes on there..

and all those there DESERVE it..


for being born HUMAN..

In a fucked up crazy loveless world with about 20 million religions to choose and confuse..

But if we choose wrong..with our very LIMITED understanding of life or eternity..

sorry..

but you have to BURN.

Also..

if you are born into a religion like islam or Bhuddism or some such..

YOU WILL BURN as well..

for DARING to be born to the wrong culture..

wrong parents..

and wrong religion..

even though GOD chooses and PLANS and THINKS about who gets born to who and where..

cause if he did NOT..

and you are born by MISTAKE into the wrong religion..then God is not all KNOWING and NOT in control at all.

He planned His Justice system well too..took a LOT of thought.

I mean..

This worlds justice system..

while unfair in a lot of cases usually fits the punishment to the crime.

You speed..

you get a fine..

you steal..

you get a bigger fine and locked away for a bit..

you kill..

you get locked away for a fair while..

But Gods justice system is the opposite..

You steal..

you get tortured forever without mercy..

You swear even..

same result..

you do anything wrong no matter how big or small..

and its TORTURE TIME!!!!

God has one punishment for all..

ETERNAL TORTURE with NO PAROLE..

MERCY..

SYMPATHY..

COMPASSION..

REHABILITATION..

OR LET UP...

And HIS ways are supposed to above OURS?

How many fathers on earth would torture their kids for the rest of their lives for stealing a cookie from the cookie jar?

NONE..

except the really fucked up ones who DO get locked awy for doing it..

But when GOD does it..

we honor him and build churches in his name...

Show me Jesus in Genesis. Which chapter/verse?

A quote that I got from some wise writer, that I wrote in the front of my Bible:
"This Book contains the mind of God, the way of salvation, the doom of sinners, and the happiness of believers."

Of course, not ALL of God's Mind is disclosed within it, for "the secret things belong to God", and there are many things we can never understand, as Danny Forshee says, "things like talking donkeys, floating axe heads, and Jonah & the whale".....but He disclosed all that we need to know.
It is designed that we know how to live a life pleasing & acceptable to God and the way of salvation!

Genesis Verse 1: "In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.
John 1 and 10 and 14
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
He was in the world and the world was made through Him
And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory.
You have to take the Bible as a whole. In the beginning, God created everything. We are told that the Word.. the Bible tells us here that Jesus is the Word... in the beginning was the Word...In the beginning was Jesus, the second person of the triune Godhead... read the Bible..you'll find that throughout. The world was made through Him.. Read it..it's very clear. He came down to our level, He lived with us, after He created everything.
Read the Old Testament with the pictures in mind that the New Testament reveal to us thatthe sacrifices and offerings of the OT were previews of Jesus death on calvary. Throughout the OT, you will see foreviews and pictures of the coming Jesus, the Christ of the New Testament.

One of the many clear pictures of Jesus in the OT is Isaiah 53: Read it carefully. It is the gospel in the Old Testament. It gives the gospel, the lamb of God offering Himself for the sins of mankind---700 years before He was born into the sorrows of this world. Right there in Isaiah, the gospel is described--God's plan of redemption and work of redemption. It is the glorious figure of Christ on the Cross...the only hope of mankind. The gospel of the New Testament is clearly given in the Old.
Throughout the Old Testament, the message is that someone is coming, who will take away our sin.... Jesus is pictured there from the first verse in Genesis throughout. Dig just a little, and you'll see. If you want to keep the blinders on, you will not see. Jesus said that people are deaf and blind because they want to be---because they do not want to see.

Lets us make man in our image.

then again Jesus says "I was there at the beggining"

And the longer we love Him...the more that we learn about Him and from Him....the sweeter life is! How magnificent is our God! We cannot begin to comprehend His majesty and His secrets, but what He has disclosed to us is awesome!
Only that living relationship with our Lord can make life meaningful. If I were not written in the Book of Life, seeing all that is happening in this world right now, I would go hide under a rock somewhere---it would be frightening. But we know how history ends! We have the peace that surpasses all understanding....only because we know God.

The powers of darkness have a hold on you. If you really want to know the truth, then pray and seek God. Mocking Him and His Word will just take you farther from Him and from the truth. God's grace is sufficient----He has provided the only way of salvation....if you want to keep on stealing cookies from the cooky jar, as you refer to sin, then you have no hope. If you want to be right with God, then turn to Him...He has saved you already, if you want to be saved. Otherwise, reject Him and you will perish. It's entirely up to you.

Correct, the bible is a bullshit fairy tale designed to rule through fear and guilt. Notice how the main character, the made up "jesus" (the mystical, magical, invisible wizard...) never shows up...that's a real problem for ANY credibility. What a bunch of mind control bullshit. WIth their magical cookie eucharist...brought to you by a bunch of creepy, pedophilic con-men dressed in gay halloween capes and RIDICULOUS gold cones with creepy luciferian fish engrams on theie idiotic heads. Then they stick that extended handle basket in front of everyone so they PUT THEIR MONEY IN IT. Do the math.

There is nothing in Genesis that indicates a savior. The Word is God. No indication of a Son. Let US create...??? The others could be any entities, no mention specifically of a Son. Even with back references, Jesus Christ or any Son was not mentioned in Genesis.

Isiah??? You said Genesis and I asked that to prove that claim. Which you have not.

The old testament, with the exception of Psalms and a few prophecies was gloom and doom for anyone who dared cross the great almighty.

Genesis...the beginning is the litereal meaning.

Genesis is where the mistakes begin. God made no mistakes, man made them in his account of God's activities.

According to the Word, God made man (and woman) innocent. You might compare them to super smart but untrained animals in their mental status. They had no knowledge of good and evil. We 'know' this because they were forbidden to eat from the tree of knowledge of good and evil.

But God still gave them an order, and expected them to obey. Like my pup, I expect him to sit on command before he knows 'sit' is good and no sit is bad. He does not know good and bad.

So God kicks them out of paradise for following their instinctive curiosity. No other humans right?, until Adam and Eve procreate. But when Cain sins he is cast out from the 'Adam' clan he was given a mark so noone else would harm him. Who would the 'others' be?

I started to say lie after lie, but really it is mistake after mistake.

I love it when Muslimes post about the Bible.

Bilge.

How can the powers of darkness have a hold on me when all I did was list what YOU preach?

And see..this is how YOUR PALS react to TRUTH..


And you want to see who is swayed by darkness??

Look no further than tour average christian..\

Thread: Christian LOVE at its finets..brought to you by the HELL screamers.

^^^^

Some typical hell screamer reeactions to being told that God is LOVE and that there is no eternal torture..\\





















I think the point of just WHO is actually EVIL is made.

Yep, that's NLP

Many people feel this way about Christianity because they don't really understand true Christianity. There are many so called "Christians" miss representing Christianity and doing it a disservice. Much of the media miss represents Christianity as well.

I would recommend reading the book of Romans in the New Testament. It explains the human condition of "SIN" and GODS
plan of redemption. It's GOD love letter to Sinners.

Thread: Jesus did NOT teach eternal torture. IN fact he taught the very OPPOSITE of what christians teach about hell.
