He has no power over me, Fred
I created Him

Lunacy on your part.

But it is also a testimony of His grace.

Yeah?

How is that a testimony of His grace?

 

[Fred]

Yeah?

How is that a testimony of His grace?

That you are still alive and still have a chance to repent and receive His mercy and love.

 

[Fred]

And I could just as readily say that it is a testimony of

none of them proved they were the true God by (1) teaching it, and (2) by raising themselves from the dead.

So put away such childish fantasies that a whole array of lies will somehow detract from the truth of Jesus Christ.


The attempt will always fail.

 

[Fred]

Speaking of failure

1. No other god 'teaches' that he/she/it is the true god???

Prove otherwise.

2. Did I miss where it was established, as fact, that Jesus rose from the dead???

I'm going by the historical documents of the New Testament.

Umm...speaking of childish fantasies - dead people don't rise, Fred

One day You should put away such childish myths that deny such has happened.

Can we get back on topic, though?

No, because this one is far more important.

When Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him (pbuh), was asked about God, the answer came directly from God in the holy book of Muslims, the Quran: “Say, 'He is God the One, God the eternal. He begot no one nor was He begotten. No one is comparable to Him'” (112:1-4)

That's not from ancient history.

You should be sorry.

Try again.

 

[Fred]

Where does 'ancient history' come into play?

That was when the New Testament was written.

One topic at a time. I am not going to respond to all your confused rambilngs.

 

[Fred]

Sorry, Fred, but it seems to be you who is confusedly rambling...

I refer you to the following:

You said:
"It is a testimony of His grace that I am still alive and still have a chance to repent and receive His mercy and love."

I said:
"And I could just as readily say that it is a testimony of Allah's grace that you haven't yet been stricken down
Or Zeus'
Or Odin's
Or that of the Flying Spaghetti Monster"

You said:
"none of them proved they were the true God by (1) teaching it"

I said:
"No other god 'teaches' that he/she/it is the true god???"

You said:
"Prove otherwise."

I then proved otherwise!
"When Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him (pbuh), was asked about God, the answer came directly from God in the holy book of Muslims, the Quran: “Say, 'He is God the One, God the eternal. He begot no one nor was He begotten. No one is comparable to Him'” (112:1-4)"


Nothing about 'ancient history'!
You denied that gods, apart from the Christian one, teach that they are the 'one true god'

I proved you wrong with words attributed, in the Quran, directly to Allah


PS
Islam got it's start circa 600AD - not all that long after the new testament was written
What, exactly, is the cut-off where ancient/not ancient is concerned?

You left this part out from post 47:

and (2) by raising themselves from the dead.

It's one thing to claim it, but quite another in proving it.

Jesus did just that.

 

[Fred]

One thing at a time, Fred

Incorrect.

I tied 1 and 2 together in post 47, but now you won't accept it.

Nope. Doesn't that work that way.

Your absurdity will not block the truth. Not now. Not ever.

The New Testament has better historical testimony than from all your examples.

Where is it written that Osiris (as well as all the others) raised himself from the dead?

 

[Fred]

edit

An assertion without proof.

edit

Difference is, He said He would. None of your examples made that claim beforehand.

Your case is floundering big time.

 

[Fred]

Even if true, this is relevant how?

Further proof He is the true God.
