I am a born again non-denominational Christian. I have come to the conclusion that no matter how I try I will never be able to explain God/Jesus & the Bible to a non believer because the whole concept is too complicated and bizarre to explain. I choose to believe without seeing and have given my heart and soul to the Lord Jesus Christ but I can understand why some people do not believe. I will not debate or argue with a non believer because I have no concrete proof that God/Jesus exists. I know in my heart that they do but they can't feel my heart feelings or know what I know. I guess the best way to show people God/Jesus is to live your life according to Christ and be such an example of Christ's love that it will be obvious you have something special that others will want a part of. Does anyone else feel this way? Do you understand what I am trying to get at?

PS I DON'T MEAN ANY DISRESPECT TO GOD/JESUS WHEN I SAY THESE THINGS. I AM JUST GIVING YOU MY HONEST FEELINGS.

I mean, before the big bang or the creation or whatever happened? What happened before that? Who or what caused anything to be anything?

haven't you heard that before? they always use: a tv, a building or a painting. maybe some more original will impress you some day. if you're one of them, will you stop it? you're just making fools of yourself. or is it that you don't know there are schools, colleges, universities, etc.. where you can study electronics and architecture. and even where to learn how to paint. never been at a painter's workshop either? or exhibition? never been to a tv facory?
as for the world i see nothing intelligently designed in it. just everything where it should be according to the law of physics. nothing particularly beautiful, until sorted out and modified by man.

Paul thought woman should not wear jewelery--should not curl their hair--should wear a veil to cover their head--& be permanently ashamed of their lineage to that evil trollop Eve.
(1 Corinthians 11:5)( 1 Timothy 2:9-14).What have these outdated opinions have to do with Christ??

going to Church makes you a better Christian, or closer to GOD ? Or is it what each person believes in their heart.

Then why didn't Jesus just say in the bible Behold, I am God, the Father.

You will be glad you did! Jesus is alive and He will come back soon! Believe it or don't believe! Thats up too you! No evil or sins will enter heaven! Only hell will evil and sins enter! You can go too heaven. If you accept Jesus as your Savior and ask Him to forgive you of your sins! Jesus is the only God! All other so called gods are false gods made up by man and comes from satan lies! Jesus loves you! praying for you

They were not able to live in Christian Europe that long without either getting booted out or holocausted......

England banned Jews from entering their country for 300 years !!

Now the Jews of Persia told the Iranian Govt that they dont want to move to Israel........ they would rather stay in IRAN !!

Iran's Jews reject cash offer to move to Israel, why do they love being in IRAN so much ?

Iran's Jewish population love Iran SO MUCH they dont want to goto ISRAEL.

have you ever posted a question about errors in the bible and actually recieved an ANSWER from a Christian that makes sense and disqualifies your question?

To date I have never read or recived an answer from a Christian that makes any sense in reference to the erorrs in the bible.

Have you ever gotten an good answer and if so explain....

I respond to/ask a lot of questions about doctrines of religious groups on the outskirts of mainstream Christianity. Often these involve the belief system of Mormons and JWs, which I've researched extensively.

In responding/asking, I've noticed distinct differences bet. the two groups. When I've honestly answered Q's on Mormon doctrine, Mormons give me thumbs up for accurately presenting what I know. They answer questions kindly and non-defensively.

JWs, though, have a completely opposite approach: They often skirt the question, regurgitate WT responses verbatim, or lie in response. When they are taken to task on this, they resort to attacking/character assassination, and name calling. On the rare occassion when a JW gave an honest answer, even though I don't agree with the theology, I gave a thumbs up for honest presentation.

Now, I ask--if doctrinal issues were a non-issue--who's attitude and behavior would be more worthy of the "Christian" label?

In Revelation 16:13 we read, "And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet." **Please note that the 3 unclean spirits came out of the mouth of the beast, the false prophet, and the dragon.

In Revelation 12:9 the Bible says, "And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him."
"Dragon" is another name for satan.

In Isaiah 14:14, 15 we read, "I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.
15 Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit." **Please note that satan's greatest desire is to be God, to rule and bring judgment!

The Bible says in 2 Corinthians 11:14, "And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light." **Satan is the father of lies (John 8:44), and his ...
