I am raised Jewish-so at worst I was an agnostic-didnt know if Jesus was the Messiah or as Isaiah said he would be (chapter 9:6 "Unto us a child is to be born, a son given, and he will be the wonderful counselor, the almighty God, the everlasting father, and the prince of peace." --i didnt know about-
would Jesus be the messiah and as predicted God or even if there was a God -the one that left us just before Jesus came and we heard our last prophet.
Psalm 19 "The heavens declare the glory of God and the word of God reveals who he is."
Jesus says " He that rejecteth my word, hath one that judgeth them the words that I have spokent the same will judge them in the last day." John 12 vs 48
Jesus saith, heaven and earth will pass away but not one of my words will ever pass away.
I tried his salvation it worked Jesus is my savior and best friend-you can say he dont exist but I have an experience-you got a arguement.

The Bible says that even devils believe, and tremble. This is interesting since they cannot be saved and they know it yet they still believe (in the existance) of God. Firsthand knowledge I might add.
Ephesians 2:12 gives what I consider to be the accurate definition of an Athiest.
"That at that time you were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world.
Simply stated (A-Thiest) = Without God!

Your argument "The fool hath said..." satisfies you. It does not enlighten you to the fact that there are others in this world who refuse to believe in fairy tales.
When most folk cite passages from the Bible they seem to forget that the passages they cite were written by man, and just as you or I am, the author of Psalm 14 had no more direct knowledge of who was or is a fool than we do. Judge not lest ye.....
Keep your salvation and bask in it, with my sincere blessing, but please do not expect me to share your convictions. I am human and breathe the same air as you and if you are truly christian you must learn to tolerate others that do not share your beliefs. After all, it is your soul that expects to receive salvation, not mine. Let me deal with my "soul" as I see fit.
Enjoy your life in Christ. Shalom.

i am not a fool, and i do not believe... if Jesus gives you hope and a reason for living a worthy life, all and good; as for myself, i will do good, not for the promise of an ever after, but because i believe that it is the right way to live.

did you ever hear of free will. God gives us choice, there are alot
of people that are "blind sheep" and choose not to believe in
any thing . then there are those who are ready to kill for Christ`s
sake. i`d say "blind sheep" again . instead of seeking truth,they
are stuck on dogma. simple things Jesus said a kid could
understand,"ask and u will recieve",knock and the door will
be opened to you","the truth will set u free"-- can u dig it ?

Ditch your Bible, clear your mind, and ask yourself, what proof do I have that he is the messiah?
I'm sure the Koran will give you an argument as convincing as that.

All I have to do to convince you of anything is write a book where the main character tells you what I want you to do?

If you think being Jewish is "at worst an agnostic" you were never Jewish in the first place.
