at least one of you got it.

Answer 1

LOL
I get it. You've got to kill your belief in religion and it's lies before you can live?
Good one.

Answer 2

I don't believe in atheists, all people believe in something, in the right situation, the most harden so called atheist crack, it is forged into a mans heart, that God exist, so called atheist's just try to pretend, that they don't feel what everyone feels, like a child angry with his parents, for not letting him have his way, he thinks he's getting back at God, by saying he doesn't believe in him, when he actually always has believed in him, Christ willingly gave his life for this world, I don't know of a greater act of love than that, he could of destroyed the Roman armies, and anyone else that tried to harm him, but he was willing to suffer more than can scarcely be imaged for our sakes, try to get that same selflessness from Darwin, are some other so called atheist, watch how short of that they fall, by the way their is no such thing as a X Christian atheist either your a believer, or your a pretender that claims, not to believe for the same, childish reasons I gave above!!!

Answer 3

No kidding. I ran out of answers so I had to come back later. Yes the guy with the @'ts in his name has the best answer!

If you meet the Buddha on the road, kill him.
but that only comes close.
God died so that I might live!
YES, YES, YES!!!

And I am certainly not a Christer!!!

mope devote can believe what he wants. He likely worked in an office all his life.
Come outside and see the real world where people actually die. Where mistakes are not corrected with erasers but with lives instead.

Answer 4

huh?
Athiest's do not believe anything, or atleast that is what I thought it meant.
Athiest's rely on their own intellect to resolve the pain of not having an intimate relationship with the Creator, GOD. That is how I see it. Most athiests always make some mention of the scapegoat argument that there is so much pain ever since 'whenever', that there can be no rational explanation that a GOD exists.
FREEWILL and FAITH.
A comprehensive, exhaustive study on both topics will indeed do the athiest some good. GOD IS NOTHING LIKE THE NAYSAYERS RAMBLE ON ABOUT..........Blessed are those who have BELIEVED, tho they have not yet seen. For faith is the substance of things hoped for, for things unseen. In Christ alone, can one quit chasing their tail and settle into HIS holy presence!
amen.

Answer 5

In the book of Genisis, God knew that Adam and Eve would fail, so to make up for this He designed a plan for salvation of the human race. When the devil (serpent) tricked the first people, God said I will have my seed to bruise the serpents head. The seed was and is Jesus, the ultimate sacrifice for all mankind to be able to enter the kingdom of God. God is the Godhead creator of everthing, whom my the way loves you and gave you the chance to believe in Jesus raising from the dead after 3 days and then going to the right hand of the father. He didn't just suffer nails thru hands and feet and be whipped on His back. He also took all the mental anguish that mankind will ever endure even so to the point that He cried tears of blood. To enter the kingdom of heaven you just simply believe this and ask God for forgiveness for sins in the name of Jesus Christ. You will have people come into your life and cross your path to help you in this message of salvation and everlasting life. Read the first book of John in the bible and you will understand more on a spiritual meaning.

Answer 6

It may be what every atheist thinks christians believe, and so it's true for christians, because atheists think relatively inherently. But if it's true for christians then it's true for anyone who believes that God sent his son, in whom dwells the fulness of the Godhead bodily to die for the sin of man. It's just that atheists think with the brain that God gave them only they don't realize that that brain has sin living in it's cells, which is why they have turned away from God, and they don't know that the only way for them to get beyond sin is to repent and believe in God.

Answer 7

God cannot die, God is immortal, this is the fallacy of those who believe in the trinity. Since God is immortal and cannot die, there would truly not have been a ransom sacrifice which God's justice, soul for soul, requires. A genuine death had to occur. As they claim that Jesus was God in the flesh a part of him still needed to be alive and a genuine death could not have occured. Jesus was, however, his Son, whom God sent to earth to be born a perfect human by transferring his life into the womb of Mary, meaning, he was born as a perfect human, Jesus is the archangel, Michael, the first born of all creation, so by transferring his life into the womb of Mary, he was in fact fully human and he genuinely died, this is the sacrifice that God had made, that when Jesus died, God for the first time since creating his firstborn Son, was truly without him, and this was the sacrifice that Jesus gave, that for the first time since his being created, he truly was dead.

Answer 8

The whole point is that Jesus Christ died for the forgiveness of our sins, thereby setting free the souls of those that have chosen to follow Jesus Christ.
Jesus is also known as the Lamb of God because back before Christ had a human life, followers of Jehovah God were to use unblemished lambs for offerings for the forgiveness of sins.
Scripture goes on to say that Christ is the last sacrifice that needs to be made for the forgiveness of sins. He bore all of our sins on the cross.
We, who have accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior of our lives, will have ETERNAL LIFE in Heaven with God the Father & Jesus Christ & all others who have accepted Jesus, BEFORE they died HERE ON EARTH.
Those who do not accept Jesus Christ before they die will end up going to Hell---- Going to Hell is the second death. Read the Bible & you will see that I am reporting the truth.
Atheists say that there is no God, so I don't understand why they would say that God died so that I might live.

In addition, Jesus Christ is God- God the Son. If you don't agree, then read Psalm 9:6 : For unto us, a child is born, and He shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, Prince of Peace, MIGHTY GOD.
Otherwise, check out Matthew 28(?): When you baptize, baptize in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
If Jesus was not God, then baptizing in His name would be going against what the 1st Commandment says about having no other gods before Me (God speaking).

Answer 9

Makes no sense to me.
God/Jesus/Holy Spirit are 1 and the same, co-equal, co-eternal. But Jesus (who is God) died and was resurrected by God (who is also God) by means of His Holy Spirit (who is also God) in order for humans to attain eternal life. So wasn't at least 1/3 of God dead for a few days? Is that a real sacrifice?

Screw this, I'm abandoning this Trinity thing. The Babylonians can have it back along with their immortal soul concept . . .

Answer 10

Some athiests do believe there was a god who died. But they don't believe it was so we could live. I'm not sure where you heard that one. Truth is God never died. Neither have your loved ones. In fact, no one has yet, not even satan. Yes, death of the flesh but not our souls. Noone does that till final judgement.

Answer 11

Atheists don't believe in God, so your question makes no sense. Not even a bit.
