Im sorry GENTILES(yes if some of you actually knew what that term meant to "New Covenant Christians" you wouldnt get so hot under the collar about that.) , but you dont tell me what my faith is all about. You dont even claim to know my God so how can you tell me what Christ means and doesnt mean. "Satan is always trying to preach to Jesus." Matthew Chap 4 1-11 Satan's poor attempt at preaching the gospel to Christ is located there. You gentiles dont preach to me your carnal logic to my Holy Scriptures.

for the same reason that Christians are always judgeing me and telling me that i am going to hell for being Pagan.
Christians try to tell me about my religion all of the damn time.
but they relate it all to demons and the devil. I follow an ancient religion that does not even believe in a devil or a hell.
however part of my religion is learning the customs and traditions of my neighbors. I have read your bible, and i have gone to your churches. i have listened to your preachers and your missionaries. and i have come to understand what JESUS CHRIST taught. and i AGREE with it. however there are many things that Jesus taught that your organised churches go directaly against. and because i have an open mind and have read your test without someone telling me what every word means i have a better understanding of most of your bible than 80 percent of the professed christians in the world today do have.
i have also studied the bible in it's original lingual terms so that i can understand what it meant WHEN it was written. the meanings of words and phrases change over time. but many people take everything that the bible says to be a lieteal of today's language.
this is why when you make sweeping generalizations and harsh judgements of others, I will tell you what Jesus would have done.
I willnot however quote bible verses to you. I will not cut and paste chapters of the bible and then say "see this is why." wothout giveing you and actual meaning behind the ancient words. i will tell you the turth of your religion as preached by YOUR savior. and i will tell when you are going against HIS teachings.
Most non-christians that talk about the bible have more real world knowlege because they read it and study it. we do not just sit around and let the preacher man tell us what it means.

i think of that there is not something incorrect of being poetic or diplomatic, yet is there ever quite an person-friendly thank you to make sure that persons understand what are the outcomes once you throw all of it away...I recommend the present of God. Jesus has cleared the way ( to all persons!!! ) by ability of the blood of His sacrifice, appearing as our priest formerly God. The "curtain" into God's presence is His physique. So enable's do it -finished of theory, useful that we are presentable interior and out. enable's save a company grip on the ensures that save us going. HE continually keeps HIS notice! enable's see how imaginative we are in a position to be in encouraging love and helping out, not fending off worshipping mutually as some do yet spurring one yet another on, exceedingly as we see the huge day drawing close. If we offer up and turn our backs on all we've found out, all we've been given, each and all the reality all of us understand, we repudiate Christ's sacrifice and are left on our very own to stand the Judgment -and a potent fierce judgment that is going to likely be!! think of!PLEASE think of! If the penalty for breaking the regulation of Moses is actual loss of life, what do you think of will ensue in case you swap on God's Son, spit on the sacrifice that made you total, and insult this maximum gracious Spirit???? it is not any mild rely!! God has warned us that he will carry us to account and make us pay. He became fairly convey: "Vengeance is mine, and that i won't ignore a ingredient," and, "God will choose his human beings." no person is getting by ability of with something, have faith me. SO do not THROW all of it AWAY NOW!

Well just the same you are doing here. If you are a christian how can you preach to a non-christian about what their beliefs are. Just because you believe something it doesn't make it true to those who don't and vice versa. A true christian will not judge a man for the judment lies in God. Man needs to find his own way and that includes his own beliefs.

Whether you want to believe it or not... many non-Christians know as much or more about the bible than the average Christian.
Besides, the Christian mandate is to tell others about your faith.. why can't other do the same to you? The difference is, the majority of the time the info from non-believers is actually SOLICITED, instead of thrust on someone like many Christians are fond of doing.

well, when street corner and subway preachers stop barking and the JW stop knocking on my door, maybe I'll shut up on the Internet, where you have willingly come to discuss (preach?) religion!
the reason why non-Christians vent in the chat rooms is because they can't do it at work, school, or on the street. That will get you beat up real fast!

But you seem to think that it's okay for you to do the preaching. How come what's right for you isn't alright for the next guy. There must be something extra special about you, but you didn't tell us what it is that's so great.

Do you believe you must "spread the good word" to all non-christians? Are you the kind to brow-beat non-believers with your knowledge and faith? (I'm guessing yes, given the tone of your post) So, WHY DO YOU HAVE THAT RIGHT?!? Especially if you won't give equal right to a non-christian.
If you want people to listen to your point of view, try shutting up and actually paying attention to theirs first.

well hello, you sound like an original baptist
your details are almost word for word what makes baptist unique from other christians
I love you man. please accept a big human hug of gentile ness
after all we are all gentlemen
the Jews still doing their thing, christians follow Paul who warped it into own sect and invention
read all of Acts word for word see how Paul turned tale on both Jews and his own and claimed Roman citizenship in the end...protected from both parties who now wanted him dead for being a con and exmurderer
today we have our own Pauls like David Koresh, moonies and others all claiming to be son of gods and have direct connection to Jesus but no one else hears those voices so they are special and apostles, the proof being the resistance from original followers so that means they are right.
that is perpetual and reactive only generating more chaos and fighting

This kind of so-called 'question' offends me. I am disgusted by stupidity, willful ignorance and self delusion... which pretty much sums up the Abrahamic death cults of desert monotheism (Judaism, Christianity, Islam).
It disgusts me to know that three-quarters of the population of the USA is infected with some sort of insidious mental virus that leads them to the insane certainty that the myths, superstitions, fairy tales and fantastical delusions of a bunch of ignorant Bronze Age fishermen and wandering goat herders represent some kind of cosmic 'TRUTH' about fundamental aspects of existence and reality.
It disgusts me to know that so many people dwell in a delusional reality (per Genesis) in which a 6,000 year-old Earth is seperated from a 6,000 year-old Heaven by a solid 'firmament' structure (the sky).
I am disgusted by the fact that these people believe that they inhabit a magical universe, which they share with talking snakes (with legs) and donkeys, a shepherd staff that turns into an asp, demons chased out of people and into pigs, friendly spirits, evil spirits, walking on water, multiplying loaves and fishes, food falling from the sky, conception by a ghost, people raised from the dead, the sun stopping in its tracks, parting seas, people being bodily sucked up into heaven (which, by the way, lies on the 'other side' of the sky), world-wide flood that drowned the earth to a depth of 40 feet above the tallest mountain, creating people from a dust bunny and a rib, a magical tree of knowledge, god speaking from a burning bush... and ritual cannibalism, by eating god in the form of a cracker.
In a sane world, anybody running around spouting ANY of that crap, would be locked up in the State Farm for the Funny. Apparently, though, mass insanity seems to convey some sort of free pass for the loony.
It disgusts me to know that in our society, irrational, deluded people who ACTUALLY BELIEVE such nonsense is TRUE are permitted to vote, hold public office, procreate, and shape the minds trusting, vulnerable children.
It disgusts me to know that these same people think that there is something wrong with those who DON'T believe all of this ridiculous crap.
Get a grip.

Why do so many Atheists claim to be the foremost experts on GOD? That IS irritating.
