Every time you accuse me of being conditioned as a child, and assume things that are not true, and the accuse me of lying about my life's experiences growing up.Really? Can you point to any specific observations that have led you to conclude I want you to blindly believe what I want you to, regardless of what the truth actually is?
Yeah, uhuh, sure..... riiiight!I ask because this is the exact opposite of what I say numerous times in every post.
Keep smoking that whiskey Pix! It's obviously deluding your mental processes....
Then you have never once actually read what I've been saying for the past 4033 days.Steve, we all know you want us to blindly believe.
I have, repeatedly.We all know you want us to blindly believe. Re-word it how you like, that is what it comes down to.
No worries though.
If you really want to spend your eternity in the lake of fire, you don't have to do a da88 thing. Keep going as you are.
You can reword it however you please.... the end result of your unbelief is an everlasting misery. An everlasting agony. An everlasting anguish beyond your worst possible nightmare.
Psa 116:1-19 WEB 1 I love Yahweh, because he listens to my voice, and my cries for mercy. 2 Because he has turned his ear to me, therefore I will call on him as long as I live. 3 The cords of death surrounded me, the pains of Sheol got a hold of me. I found trouble and sorrow. 4 Then I called on Yahweh’s name: “Yahweh, I beg you, deliver my soul.” 5 Yahweh is gracious and righteous. Yes, our God is merciful. 6 Yahweh preserves the simple. I was brought low, and he saved me. 7 Return to your rest, my soul, for Yahweh has dealt bountifully with you. 8 For you have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, and my feet from falling. 9 I will walk before Yahweh in the land of the living. 10 I believed, therefore I said, “I was greatly afflicted.” 11 I said in my haste, “All people are liars.” 12 What will I give to Yahweh for all his benefits toward me? 13 I will take the cup of salvation, and call on Yahweh’s name. 14 I will pay my vows to Yahweh, yes, in the presence of all his people. 15 Precious in Yahweh’s sight is the death of his saints. 16 Yahweh, truly I am your servant. I am your servant, the son of your servant girl. You have freed me from my chains. 17 I will offer to you the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will call on Yahweh’s name. 18 I will pay my vows to Yahweh, yes, in the presence of all his people, 19 in the courts of Yahweh’s house, in the middle of you, Jerusalem. Praise Yah!
YHVH wants to give you everlasting life in exchange for your sin.
But if such really is too odious for you then you can continue as you are.
i wouldn't know. My maternal ancestors left Britain over 400 years ago. My paternal ancestors left Ireland and Scotland at least 172 years ago.Why do you think all British people behave the same?
as such, I don't even know if there's any relatives remaining.... maybe a 5th or 6th generation removed cousin...
And I'd say that you have some serious deep seated bigotry against the Bible and biblical Christianity that you need to address.This suggests some deep-seated bigotry to me that you really need to address.
Thank you for demonstrating my point.Again and again, all you are saying is I should blindly believe the Bible,
You're batting them out of the park in every single post!
Further demonstrating my point...When I look at the petty-minded, insulting, prideful people on CARM who say they are Christians, I think the same thing.
you have some serious deep seated bigotry against the Bible and biblical Christianity that you need to address.
i wouldn't know. He refuses to discuss it with me.And yet I am sure he considered himself a Christian.
Actually, we've discussed how you believe that the Bible says women have less worth.We have discussed how the Bible regards women as inferior - it literally says they have less worth.
Jesus defined that women have equal worth to men, in Genesis 1-2, and restated it in John 8.
really? I thought he was the standard model.your father was an extreme, but I do not doubt he considered what he did to be Biblical.
that you are perishing because you prefer to justify yourself instead of welcoming YHVH's justification through believing in Jesus Christ.What does that prove?
so, you admit to using a poor choice of words to justify yourself.I use the word when I am not sure.
bad habit!
Yet you refuse to turn to YHVH from your sin and place your trust in Jesus so you can be justified by YHVH.I do not have your arrogance; I have the humility to know I can be wrong, and to make it clear in my posts that what I say is tentative.
hthat's not humility.
That's stupidity and the epitome of arrogance.
it's stupidity, because you are aware of the consequences for refusing to turn to YHVH from your sin and place your trust in Jesus so you can escape condemnation for your sin and unbelief.
it's arrogance because you think as long as you pay lip-service to the ideas of the words, your justification of yourself invalidates the truth.
Russian roulette anyone?
did you want a .44, 45, or .50 with that suicide you're engaged in?
To trust the word of someone who loves you enough to tell you the truth, and who actually has the power and authority to follow through with keeping their word to you.That depends on what you mean by "belief".
It's more noticeable that you don't actually care that I find to be the problem.Fair enough.
I guessed that the three videos you presented argued that Islam is wrong. I could have wasted three hours watching them to be sure,
but really I did not care.
Meaning that you have wasted far more than 3 hours arguing unsensibly and foolishly, about topics you have no idea about, in order to have the appearance of being a reasonable person.
That's what I consider a complete and total waste.
Congratulations though! You appear erudite to your fellow atheists.
And wasted far more than 3 hours arguing unsensibly and foolishly on topics you know nothing about.Remember, I guessed correctly, based on the evidence I had. And I was quite clear that it was a guess.
How you think that's a win is incomprehensible in my book.
I have plenty of evidence.Now consider your relationship to the Bible in contrast. You are utterly certain it is true, and yet you have NO evidence of that.
You however have repeatedly stated that you'll have no part of it.
And even if I were to spend the next 3 decades detailing my experiences, in diary format, you'd still reject it.
so, my job is to simply present the gospel to you...
Jesus died, and rose again to pay the penalty for your sin, so you can enjoy Peace with
YHVH, and everlasting life, freed from the power of sin, the consequences of sin, and finally, the presence of sin.
that is your prerogative. It is after all your life.I think my situation is more realistic, more honest with myself, more honest with you.
it'll be your eternity too.
do you really want to spend 1000 10000000 100000000000000 10000000000000000000 years in misery, and then come to the awareness that those eons weren't even a picosecond of the eternity that is yet to come? All because your ego is too fragile to come to the recognition that Jesus is God's only solution?
Pity.When we have little evidence, guessing is all we can do.
YHVH has been giving evidence to his people for millennia. And it's not merely to a small group of people a couple thousand years ago. He still does it today.
Yet you refuse to do anything effective about it. To you, it's a vague and basic idea of mental assent.The difference between you are me is that I can acknowledge when I am guessing.
My opinions are based on YHVH carrying through on his terms and conditions.You have to pretend your unsupported BS opinions are fact.
