Why don't you accept Jesus?

Question

Jesus is real! He is our God! don't let satan fool you and lie to you. Jesus is the God almighty! Jesus is the way to heaven and the only way! Jesus loves you! praying for the lost!

Answer 1

I don't accept Jesus because he doesn't accept Visa.

Answer 2

You seem honest and very young.

There are people in the world that don't beleive in Jesus. The Jews and Hasidic Gentiles do not view Jesus as the Messiah because he did not fulfill the ACTUAL Messianic prophecies. What are these prophecies you may ask?

Well, a few would be:

1. Rebuilding the Temple Micah 4:1/Isaiah 33:20/Ex 37:26-29

2. Gather all Jews back to the land of Israel Isaiah 43:5-6

3. Usher in an era of world peace and an end to all warfare Isaiah 2:4

4. Spread universal knowledge of G-d Zech 14:9

5. The Torah to be inscribed upon the hearts of all mankind and the Jews will be priests to all nations Zech 8:23, 14:16-19

6. The dead will ressurect Daniel 12:2/Ez 37:12-13/Isaiah26:19

7. Eternal joy and gladness Isaiah 51:11

8. Death Ceases Isaiah 25:8

9. Messiah will not tire or fail Isaiah 42:4

And so on. Notice that in the Jewish prophecies, the actual Messianic prophecies there is nothing about a second coming, a dying for sins or being the son og G-d.

Instead the Messiah is a man, that is lead by G-d but in the end just a man.

Answer 3

"Jesus is real!"
- Most definitely.

"He is our God! "
- Absolutely. Jehovah's Witnesses would say no.

"don't let satan fool you and lie to you."
- There is no war between God and Satan, and we lost it anyway through Adam. It is up to God to intervene or "let Satan fool us" as He wills.

"Jesus is the God almighty!"
-You said that already.

"Jesus is the way to heaven and the only way!"
- That is why the Father sent Him.

"Jesus loves you!"
- I believe this for myself, but I'm not a Universalist. Not everyone will go to Heaven.

"praying for the lost!"
- If you think it's up to each person to decide, then why are you praying to God if it's not His call?

Answer 4

I don't accept Jesus because there are too many historical facts that lead me to believe that he was not "God, the son of God or a spirit". He was a man who preached in the holy land like many other men at that time. Circumstances surrounded that "Rebbe" and he was deemed as the messiah by many people, however, the Torah says nothing about a "second coming". Jesus did not fulfill the prophesy so a "second coming" was created. In addition, after his death, people did not know if Jesus was "man", "God' or "a combination". A vote was taken and it was decided it was equal parts (not 50-50 but more like 50-50-50 and the Trinity concept was born.
That is why I don't believe in Jesus but I respect anyone else who does.

Answer 5

Because he may have lived in that time period and he may have been a good person, but because the bible omits so many things and contradicts itself so many times, that it can be nothing more than a fairy tale. Just like St. Nick and all that.
Did you know that St. Brigit is actually a Celtic Goddess called Brigid. So, ummm how many other goddess' or gods were turned into saints simply for Christianity?
I cannot believe in a religion that condemns so many people, for simply having free will

Answer 6

I've accepted Jesus as my saviour. But, I'm sorry, this question won't work to promote more people being saved. Either people seek God, or they don't. I'm glad you've been saved, but Yahoo! Ask isn't the way to go. Try telling people at your school about Jesus and his love and what he's done for you in your life. Maybe a one-on-one bible study will work too.

Hope this helps!

Answer 7

I accept him and love him probably just like most Christians do. I don't consider him a God though or a son of God.
Because I like to think of God as
-One entity that does not reproduce.
-One that has no equivalents (i.e Holy Ghost, Son).
-One that has no race or gender. (Wouldn't it suck for women if God is a male, or for Asians if God is middle eastern).

Other than that, I have no problems accepting Jesus as a prophet, who is still alive, who will come back and save the world...and I can claim that all muslims are ordered to believe that.

Answer 8

Revelation 3:20
John 3:16
1 John 1:9
Romans 10:9

I have heard a joyful sound. Jesus saves, Jesus saves.

Answer 9

Prove your claims.

Your god loves me so much he'll torture me forever, right?


Pascal's wager:

"If god exists, it's infinitely better to believe, since you get heaven instead of hell for eternity. If he doesn't, it doesn't matter since you're dead anyway. So overall it's better to believe"

This is, of course, false.

Some of the problems with the argument:

* The implied assumption that god may exist (with a 50% probability, no less!)

* The assumption that there is an afterlife with a heaven and hell

* The assumption that the god cares about belief in him/her above all else

* The assumption that if you believe in a god, it will definitely be the same god that actually exists.

* The assumption that you lose nothing if it's false. You have lost a great deal, from time praying to a nonexistent entity (some people pray several hours a day!!!) to morality (your god may ask you to hurt other people) and much more besides.

* The assumption that people can believe in something simply because it benefits them. Would you believe goblins exist for twenty bucks? Why not?

* The assumption that any god won't see through the "believing just to get into heaven" ploy.

Nobody can prove any gods, much less a specific god, exist. People believe in specific gods because of indoctrination from an early age, tradition, hallucinations, fear of torture (for gods sadistic enough to threaten it) and other similarly illogical reasons. But no gods exist in reality; these are all stories, created for people who were scared of the world long before we understood it. Now we have no more reason for these superstitions.
