The problem with being Christian


Sep 29, 2020, 1:42 PM

Is reconciling the idea of The Savior and damnation and mentoring young unbelievers...

If that's a problem for you, I'd suggest you read this thing called the "New Testament." It suggests a slightly different approach than raining locusts down upon the unbelievers.

NOT inferring that this is you


Sep 29, 2020, 1:52 PM

but the problem with being Christian is not lining up the profession of faith with actually being a living epistle... kind of like the old adage, actions speak louder than words. People too often justify not being a good example in action with "we are all sinners saved by grace" or "we will never reach perfection". To do right and to do good is only as simple as making the decision to do right and to do good...

Being Christian in this age of political correctness, where tolerance and acceptance are a must, is a catch 22 for people who are supposed to be on a mission to save souls from burning for eternity.

Dabo exemplified this in his presser when he said he was a christian but didn't think people who do not believe as he does are bad. But his religion says they will deservedly go to hell....

Re: The problem with being Christian


Sep 29, 2020, 3:27 PM

If you have looked all the through the bible you would know that God does not pick the most religious person to do his bidding. He choses someone that can get the job done. One that most should know is the story of Paul-Saul. I have always been a Christian and some times not a good one. I have been trying my best to become a better Christian or @ least be as good as Dabo. God's will is not always our will and that is the hardest part to understand.

Sep 29, 2020, 3:43 PM

for instance, if a young child who is critically survives, it's proof of God's grace. If the child succumbs to his illness, it was God's choice. Kind of like flipping a coin that is heads on both sides.

So I am guessing your are not a Christian. I will not say I understand God's will and anyone that does is only kidding themselves. If the child succumbs to his illness it is God's will for what ever reason. You either believe or you don't its called faith.

Sep 29, 2020, 8:14 PM

OrangeCrush said nobody could prove God isn't real. Since that's not how the burden of proof works, I thus challenged him to prove unicorns and sasquatch are not real. Same concept.

If a person claims anything exists, the burden of proof rests upon him to prove it, not demand someone prove him wrong.

I think it goes without saying that you and I both know what we each believe concerning God. Some believe, some don't. I'm ok with that... because full growd people, like children too, can believe anything they want to! :)

Well the reason I asked where you were from is because the only people I have ever met that uses Jesus's name like you were not from the south so I am guessing you are not either.

That's the second time you've asked me not to do that, and I'm going to make a point to keep doing it, especially since your posts generally aren't very Christian. I don't comply with hypocrites. If it bothers you, don't read my posts or come here.

I'm simply asking you how Trump somehow answers your prayers. I'd like an answer, but I think we know there isn't one. He isn't an answer to anyone's prayers, and he's not a Christian. He's a fraud in that regard.
