When someone says something bad about Jesus do you show your "lack of faith by cussing and calling them names?

Question

Do you get all sick at your stomach and want to puke all over them. If you do, you do not believe in Jesus. I do not care how much you pretend too. Do some people give themselves away with stupidity?

Answer 1

Jesus said, before they hated you, they hated me first
people can speak how they choose, it is not what goes into the body that will condemn, but what comes out of the mouth, thus, it will be on them

Answer 2

Some people, in spite of strong Faith, will still respond to one indignant act with an equally indignant act of their own, believing that their bad behavior can be justified due to another's bad behavior.

I think we both know the best way to challenge an indignant act is to remain dignant. Those who remain dignant will prove themselves more Christ-like through their actions alone.

But I would not go so far as to say indignant behavior is a sign of one's lack of Faith. While it's certainly not Christ-like either, I believe the middle ground provides a far more reasonable explanation.

I mean, if one didn't believe in Jesus, why would they become indignant to an anti-Jesus remark? Right? Those who truly lacked faith would act indifferent to the attacker or may even agree with the attacker.

Only a devout believer is apt to be stirred to anger by an anti-Jesus remark - indicating that they do very well indeed have faith.

Are you familiar with the phrase, "Be patient, God isn't finished with me yet"? Through Faith in God, we will become perfected, eventually no longer becoming indignant in the face of indignity. But this change takes time, and we're on God's time whether we want to be or not. For most of us, this means our unChrist-like foibles will be resolved slowly over time.

In the grand scheme of things, it really doesn't matter what some loud-mouth skeptic thinks about Jesus. It's what Jesus thinks that is most important to a believer. Those believers who have figured this out, find it easy to brush off the attacks of angry anti-Jesus skeptics.

Allah says in Quran :

REVILE NOT,ABUSE NOT,THOSE GODS THEY WORSHIP BESIDES ALLAH LEST IN THE IGNORANCE THEY WILL ABUSE ALLAH
6:108

despite Muslims are abused....We r commanded by Allah not to abuse any god of other religion.....
besides Jesus Christ is an honorable Prophet of Allah

Answer 4

I completely ignore them...but I always think about how sad and disappointed it makes Jesus feel....that is who they are really offending.

Answer 5

This is universal of any faith, but if one comes to a faith of their own free will and explores it with a greater understanding then that faith is infallible. It cannot be broken nor compromised. However if somebody has it thrust upon them and does not really remain true to it they will have a weak faith, and will be quick to the irrational. Just an observation. May explain a few things.

Answer 6

Good point

A true christian would not resorte to arrogance and malice

But it happens here all the time expescially if some one asks a religious question that is hard or is funny

Im a pagan and get blasted by people who believe in Christ
all the time

Its funny that only Christ based believers blast me , Every one else I get along with just fine

Answer 7

no i don't cuss or argue because that's not going to help Allah guides whom he wills and leaves astray whom he wills. I just try to show them proof of how great Jesus is and how he will save us buy killing the anti Christ and of course pray for them to be guided

Answer 8

in all honesty I do not cuss at all. could even really say never.

and I do not expect someone who dose not believe that Jesus is god to cuss or not to cuss, that is their chose.

Answer 9

I don't "cuss them and call them names".
THAT'S what the Report button is for!

Answer 10

No.

I generally show my lack of faith by agreeing with them

(I'm talking as if saying 'Jesus couldn't walk on water' is saying something bad here)
