When a non Christian blasts us and Christians say something mean in return it is them that win.When we return love with the hate that they give guess who gets the glory? Jesus gets glory.Does this make Jesus look good when Christians fight hate with love ,Thats what Jesus died for.Love.Love those who hate you ,Am I right or is my personal relationshp that I have with Jesus and what He has been telling me wrong?I am nothing without Jesus.Nothing more than a filthy rag.It is Jesus that we honor.It is Jesus that we praise.It is Jesus that we are willing to give up everything and follow Him like little children.Is this correct?

Jesus was non violent up to His death.He was angry at the people using the temple for monitary gain.The Bible says we are nothing but filthy rags and yes I will led someone to Jesus but you can not do it with scare tacticand hate.Jesus sat with the prostitutes and they saw His love and that is what they wanted.They felt His love.

I just want to make sure you know that it's probably a very small percentage of atheists that "hate you." I don't feel hate for Christians, but when they act hateful or superior, it makes me angry. I realize that those type of Christians are in the minority, too. But do you realize that when you say that without Jesus you would be nothing more than a filty rag, you are actually saying that atheists are nothing more than filthy rags?

Ever read the works of G.K. Chesterton? He was a brilliant writer whose wit and satire did more to puncture the conceit of the enemies of Christianity than just about any author before or since. He didn't suffer fools gladly, and his intelligence was used to silence the enemies of Christ.
I don't claim to play on anything even close to Chesterton's level, but God has given me a modest talent for writing. If someone has a genuine question about Christianity, I will try to help them until my fingers are too numb to type.
But if someone who knows better still insists on mocking and blaspheming my Lord and Savior, I will not sit back and allow that to go unchallenged. The Bible says that there is a time to answer a fool according to his folly lest he become wise in his own conceit. (Proverbs 26:5)
God gave us minds as well as hearts, and He expects us to use both.

Yes it is our place to love. When you have children that you love, is it not your job to guide them and try to show them the way, or do you just let them head down a dark and dangerous road when you have had an opportunity to possibly tell them something they did not previously know that will lead them in the right direction. The Bible also says to guide them towards him as though we were pulling them out of the very pit of hell itself. So if you want to love someone then there is responsibility that goes with that, you can not say you love someone if you are not ready to try to help save their souls. If they want to ask stupid questions you just love them and direct them anyway, but to sit back and smile and say, well whatever I love you...that is not love that is the route a lazy person takes. Ask any parent who has raised a child with real love instead of just trying to keep their kid from getting mad at them.

You return love? by saying you go to hell if you do not accept jesus christ? Now that is SM kind of love ...... I have a whip, some candles ..... wanna accept my love?
And yes, you are a filthy rag ..... you did not give up your computer and money to follow him like little children ..... you lied.
Is that correct?

Explain Jesus turning over the tables at the Temple and chasing out the money lenders and rooster beters.
Explain that OUTBURST of anger.
That was JESUS, like it or not!

When I blast them in response to one of their willfully ignorant questions or responses to a Christian's honest inquiry, believe me, hatred has nothing to do with it. I will never present them as being anything other than what they are, you have my word on that.

I'm sorry but I'm not going to agree with you that you're nothing more than a filthy rag.

Hmmm... ironic that this is how I feel when non-muslims spread their ignorance and hatred toward me and other muslims that mean well.
