Not at all. In fact, I have thought clearly on this and expressed my thoughts about discussing these things online many times. Obviously, you lack the capacity to retain memories of this
Yeah that must be why when someone asks you questions you tell them to ask someone else. How about when these people knock on your door you ask them what your opinion is supposed to be and what you should be thinking, Then come back and answer iul's questions.
LOL....as if people are going to be knocking on my door about these things....LOOOOOOL...that's hilarious!!! However, I welcome anyone to knock on my door and ask me these types of questions. Trust me on this...I will certainly not tell them to ask anyone else. As I mentioned for the umpteenth time these forums are not the place for debating things deeply about the Bible/ God/Jesus/Quran or whatever else of spiritual nature. Sure, it is fine to talk about the basics but that is all you can do. Just take a look over your shoulder and see how many successfully calm threads there are about spiritual things. Especially the one's YOU have commented in!!! LOL Due to my studies and analysis I have found it not to be inspired of God. However, there are many good things in the Quran about love, how to treat people and so on. But it's the main theme of it that does not ring true with me. The Bible does ring true with me. It has truthful answers for the questions everyone has. To me, it makes more sense. Especially when I see many parts of it applied successfully in our organisation. I know by what I just said is going to spark many questions and I am not going to answer them here (for reasons I have already stated). Any of our people are able to answer these question face to face when they knock on your door or meet you in the street. Ask them, talk to them, listen to them as they listen to you. You won't get miracles, you won't get instant happiness or instant enlightenment, but you will get truth.
The Quran(sic) is just as inspired as is the Bible, as is the Book of Mormon. All written by the hand of man - who is to say that all or none were inspired? You? A human? Do not trifle with the affairs of the Vengeful God of All.
Why are you taking part in a thread entitled "questions for christians" if you are unwilling to answer any questions then? if you aren't willing to enter in to dialogue would you mind not cluttering up the place with your cowardly excuses? See, what i think happened is you were asked difficult questions and this response from you is just a way of weaseling out of giving an answer.
st0x. You and I both know we have been down this road before in other threads. Where did this end up? The same. You disagreeing with me. This is not the first time you have accused me and most likely will not be the last. This conversation always ends the same. You don't want to agree to anything in regards to there being a God. Therefore, I can put the same question to you but in a different way: Every man, woman and beast in DP Forums knows you are an atheist through and through, right? Then why are you in this thread when the thread is aimed at Christians? Does the word "touché" apply here
Does someone have to be a christian to ask christians questions then? We need someone to pull you up on your evasion.
Cheap SEO Services - if i was you i'd give up on stOx. He clearly will not listen so there is no point in fueling the fire.
Of course not. Put it this way. Were you educated for years in the education system or did you learn about people, life, history etc. in a forum over a few days? LOL...don't worry...me and st0x are old friends....hmmm..aren't we???
You said: The Quran, and others answer these questions in a perfectly clear fashion. This is the part, where everyone see's you as a fraud and a liar, the Qurans message is practically the same as the bibles except the Quran tells you to worship 1 God while the Bible tells you to worship 3. So..which is it? Does the Bible/Quran theme not ring true with you, thus making you not a Christian or does it? You replies are very contradictory
Where does the Bible say to worship three? There are three elements - but one God in the Bible. The father, the son, the holy ghost - Trinity. So. Exactly... where are the other two?
TRInity, tri = 3 I know Christians say they are the same but come on. IMO Christianity is a polytheistic religion
How rude of you to call me a fraud and a liar. Since when did I say the Bible teaches to worship 3 gods? This is a perfect case of you not doing your research. Go read up on 100's of my posts about this very FACT!
Ok then, lets say for arguments sake the Bible tells you to worship ONE God and ONE God only, there is no difference with the Quran. So how can it not ring true with you?
C'mon...there are 40 books in the Bible and how many in the Quran? How many pages? There's so many areas, teachings, principles and illustrations in both. I have seen what the Bible has done for people from all over the globe in all different tribes and tongues. I honestly can't say the same for the Quran. But, as I said again, I am not going to go into doctrinal points with you or anyone else in this forum. However, I will show you one major difference in the Bible's teachings and the Quran's teachings. The Bible teaches what God's name is. Jesus gave it the utmost importance by making it first priority in the model prayer (Matthew 6:9). Moses asked God what his name meant (Exodus 3:13-15). Our organisation is widely known to represent his name (Isaiah 43:10) and most importantly, Jesus made it very clear that we must declare HIS name for a witness to all the nations for the end coming (Matthew 24:14, 28:19-20). Where does it teach these things in the Quran?
How many books? 1, the Quran You can't say the same for the Quran because you lack knowledge on it. The Quran is the most recited book on the planet, also Muslims are the largest group of people practising religion in the world. So, technically, the Quran has done more. This proves you don't know anything about the Quran or Islam, how is it a difference? You would know that if you even read the first page, first chapter of the Quran that God = Allah and Allah = God and most chapters start with "In the name of Allah" In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, the Cherisher and Sustainer of the worlds; Most Gracious, Most Merciful; Master of the Day of Judgment. Thee do we worship, and Thine aid we seek. Show us the straight way, The way of those on whom Thou hast bestowed Thy Grace, those whose (portion) is not wrath, and who go not astray. C'mon, can you be taken seriously when you ask where does it say these things in the Quran when it says it on the first page, LOL.
Let's look at your comment closely. How many "christians" in the faith in the world? How many churches, priests, cardinals, bishops etc in the world today? Of what percentage do they make up of all religions collectively? Does this make this religion the right one because most are following it? What are we? Sheep or human beings? I choose to follow teachings that ring true and make very good sense to me. You can choose what you like. You are fully entitled. But can you answer this very important question? "How do I know this is the "True Religion" that God backs?" Be careful how you answer this. Think deeply and pray about it before answering.
