When I was a street preacher, I used to remind other Christians of 1Peter3:15–16 whenever they treated atheists with contempt, which frequently included false accusations of hating and/or rebelling against God, as well as extremely sarcastic remarks whenever any atheist attempted to reason...
There are no beliefs that derive from rejection of god claims other than maybe that there is little to no value in praying, studying holy books, regular church attendance, and the like.
This is exactly analogous to avampirism or aleprechaunism. Each is also the rejection of an existential...
You aren't correct here. You being too definitively all inclusive. I have debated Atheists who have said that verbatim. Whether or not they misspoke is irrelevant here.
But what is relevant is how you define what you believe. If that incudes being an atheist with beliefs then so be it.
I may...
Well that is your decision Kenny. You have been shown why your teachings of lawlessness are unsupported by the scriptures when providing the scripture context you choose to ignore. So I will leave your sins between you and God to work through as I have done my part.
These have all been...
This false line of accusation is always tried.
Christ loved all yet He told them the truth.
I love you and all my friends here. But I am just telling you the truth.
Some do not like the truth so they do not like those that tell them the truth.
Since you are a self-proclaimed Christian, I assume that you've read the Bible, and in doing so, you've possibly read the scriptures about loving your neighbor as yourself (Matthew 22:39), loving your enemies (Matthew 5:44), and treating others the way you would like to be treated (Luke 6:31). I...
Ok “Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect”- 1Peter3:15.
Where in that verse does it say we have the burden of proof.
As an aside: how do you suggest demonstrating that the bible is God's word? Where are the tens of thousands of Christians who after attending sermons then go and share their lives with stupid poor people who probably will never be able to repay the act? They are almost nowhere to be found, but...
"All will know that you are my disciples..."
You have not said what is a disciple.
You have mentioned one way they can be identified as such.
There are other identifying marks or a disciple of Christ.
(John 8:31) . . .“If you remain in my word, you are really my disciples. . .
(John 15:8-9)...
Please forgive me dear friend. You have lost all credibility with me with your dishonest posts and deflection. Others can see this as well so we will agree to disagree. Lets chat more when you can prove your self and have something to contribute to the discussion. Take Care.
But I made none. How many times did I have to remind you of 1Peter 3 15 before you finally tired to answer? And then you still could not follow it. You are either using words that you do not understand or making false accusations that appear to only apply to you. You ran away...
As matter of fact you do, because the verse you keep quoting tells us how to act with non-believers who ask a certain question. I wonder why you missed this part?
No. It is time to grow up. You know better. Get off of your script. It is time to not only realize that you may be wrong. The odds are that you are wrong.
Take heart. You might learn something.
Lets discuss your claims here...
1Peter3:1515, But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asks you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear
According to the scripture above we are to sanctify the Lord God in our hearts...
Wow! In view of how 1Peter 3 15 tells you how to behave how do you justify this post? Sometimes I wonder if you really are a Christian. That verse from the Bible, tells you how to act with nonbelievers. Do I have to explain how you are being rude?
