Are Creationists the Great Pretenders?

If Jesus never asked them to kill folks, and commanded them to help the poor and heal and love and share the good news with the people, then obviously they were not following Him. You see we were not told to kill as many innocents as possible to become martyrs and enter heaven.
Your theism appears to be a bit fuzzy. I thought that you believed that Jesus was God and created the world etc.. Perhaps I was wrong and you only believe that Jesus was "some guy".

The issue here is a question regarding whether Jesus killed anyone or told us to. That would be the Jesus born in Bethlehem and the Jesus in the New Testament whose words and Personality we have recorded there.

No, if you have the above mentioned beliefs about Jesus then he is not just "Jesus in the New Testament". He does not get a pass on his past bad actions because he had a rough weekend.

To know what He is like and comprehend His nature in the future or old testament times with Israel, we need to know the Man, and what He is like. Jesus came to take care of that. Now if anyone wants to accuse Jesus of murder or telling us to kill anyone show the quotes. How about any of His followers like Peter, Paul, etc etc?

Now it appears that your tune is changing. Once again your theology is inconsistent. A sure sign that it is in error.

Nothing is changing. A sure sign you are wrong.


Sure it is. You tried to claim that Jesus never ordered any killings and then I you ran away when I asked you if Jesus was God.

You are the marathon man of running away when you contradict yourself.

Conclusion: Jesus is/was not moral.

Your morals without Him are not moral.
His morals endorse rape. My morals do not endorse rape.
His morals endorse genocide. My morals do not endorse genocide.

My morals are far superior by any standards. Stop being so blind.

Nor does your morality, so called save anyone.

His morality killed almost all human beings. His morality killed almost all animals.

My morals are far superior by any standards. Stop being so blind.

Whether He had to cull wicked men in days of old or the future was not the issue
CULL:
select from a large quantity; obtain from a variety of sources.​

Your Jesus/God/Holy Ghost horrifically killed 99.9+% of humans and, in defense, you use the term cull.

You really need to think about the horrors you have come to accept and make excuses for.



. The issue was whether Jesus somehow ordered us to kill folks. The answer is no.

So you are saying that Jesus is not God and God is not Jesus. We seem to be going in circles.





You see, unlike some other religions, Christian martyrs are not terrorists, they were killed BY terrorists.

Let's stay on topic. Your Jesus/God committed genocide and endorsed rape.

Pretend all you like, we have the new testament that says otherwise.
You conveniently ignore the OT when it is in your own interest. That's very dishonest of you. Is that a Christian thing - dishonesty as a defense mechanism?

You see, the horror would be to make man without a plan for salvation. The horror would be to have allowed wickedness to triumph and result in the perdition of man. Instead, He guided a people through history, so that Salvation could come. If that plan were allowed to have been foiled by the rampant wickedness of men, that would be the horror. Instead, He came down Personally to suffer horribly for us, and show His real love and plan. Your idea of morals frankly can take a hike.
