I posed a series of questions to you in the other thread. Feel free to respond here.
>>
>>139374429
If you've committed a single sin, it's as you've broken all of God's laws. The Bible says that "all have sinned and come short of the glory of God". But because God loves us, he sent his only begotten son, Jesus Christ, to die for our sins.

When Christ was crucified, it was as if he carried the sins of the whole world in his own body. The only thing we need to do is accept Christ as our Lord and savior, then our sins will be on His record. So when you meet God when you die, you'll have a clean record.

What did God create first? (Light)
What is God? (Light)
Who put light into the sun? (God).

When was the sun made? Day Four
When was the earth made? Day Two

So yes, the earth is older than the sun, by two days.

When were birds created? Day 5
When were the land animals made? Day 6

So yes, birds existed an entire day before land animals.

And your "evidence" that any of this is incorrect is, what, again? The "wisdom of men"?

It's part of the rage the pharisees had towards Jesus. They thought, as all men thought, that unless they murder someone, they are innocent under the Law re murder.

Matthew 5:22 But I say to you that whoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment. And whoever says to his brother, ‘Raca!’ shall be in danger of the council. But whoever says, ‘You fool!’ shall be in danger of hell fire.

>if god is omni-scient/benevolent'/potent/present and has predicted our every move we dont have free will

Yes, we do, because God gave us free will. Just because he knows the outcome of his creation doesn't mean he caused that outcome. God can do anything, and God gave us free will.

If I record a baseball game on TV, and we watch it the next day, I didn't cause the game to play out the way it did just because I have pre-knowledge of the game. I just know the outcome because I've seen it play out. I didn't cause it.

God exists outside space and time, and he knows everything. So obviously he can jump on the timeline and see what's going to happen. How do you think Jesus predicted things and how do you think Revelation came about?!

>>139375065
14 And God said, “Let there be lights in the vault of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark sacred times, and days and years, 15 and let them be lights in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth.” And it was so. 16 God made two great lights—the greater light to govern the day and the lesser light to govern the night. He also made the stars. 17 God set them in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth, 18 to govern the day and the night, and to separate light from darkness. And God saw that it was good. 19 And there was evening, and there was morning—the fourth day.

"Let there be light" cannot refer to the sun because according to the bible the sun was created on the fourth day.
So light existed before the sources of light? Either way, a permament source of light is necessary for plants to exist.

Christianity is cucked and lacks modern day morals for a healthy, open and friendly society without fundementalist religious niggers.

You can debate me all you want, but there is no point in living a life cucked under some cross, when you can be all that and a better human being without believing in ooga-booga kike-cross-section desert scribbles.

1- Christ "suffered" from the temptation as the NT says, for 40 days and 40 nights.

2- Christ had "evil desires" in him.

3- Christ felt spiritually weak that Angels had to come down to "attend him", because he was getting weaker and weaker, spiritually from satan's temptation.

4- Christ was between satan and GOD Almighty for 40 days and 40 nights.

5- Christ coveted the kingdoms of the world, and coveted turning them into satanic world such as open pornography, alcoholism, drugs, violence, theft, prostitution and all of the sins that one can think of.

6- The Bible says GOD Almighty can not be tempted by anyone! Yet, Christ was tempted for 40 days and 40 nights, and the temptation got very bad too for him.

Jesus was tempted by the devil.

At no point was Jesus tempted to give in to those temptations. Nor was He spiritually weak; He was dying of hunger and thirst, hence the angels ministered to Him and kept Him alive. They were obviously on hand the entire time.

Jesus is God, not between man and God, and Jesus did not want the broken sinful and cursed world the devil offered Him.

He has better plans for this place than that. And they include the devil, his demons, and his human allies in an eternal lake of fire.

Mohammed was a literal pedophile who molested and raped a 9 year old. I don't care what universe you live in, that's an abomination. That's a sick perversion.

If you don't know the story of Mohammed, this is what happened: one time when he was out traveling, Mohammed stopped by and rested in a cave. While he was inside the cave, an "angel from heaven" named Gabriel (how convenient to name him after one of the few angels in the Bible that's actually named) flew in, grabbed him by the throat and spit in his face, "TEACH THIS UNTO THE MASSES AND DO IT NOW!!!"

Mohammed got scared and started doing it. Throughout the rest of his life, Mohammed kept being visited by the "angel" who told him to do various things, for example, raid the trade caravans that went to Mecca and murder the travelers along the road. Mohammed had previously been banished from Mecca for trying to start a violent cult.

After Mohammed gained a large following, he taught a handful of people about his visions, and told them to write it down, which they did. After Mohammed died, they all started fighting about who should compile the "collected Quran" into a single book. They eventually created a version of the Quran, but kept on fighting, and eventually someone named Uthman (who never knew Mohammed) burned all surviving copies of the Quran and wrote a new one -- that all Muslims use today.

Meanwhile the Bible teaches that NO OTHER GOSPEL, not even if it is preached by an "ANGEL FROM HEAVEN" is true.

It's generally understood that Mohammed met Satan in the cave, or he just made the whole thing up.

What makes Christianity more valid than other, much older religions, such as Zoroastrianism?

Why do European churches ignore the Book of Enoch, the Book of Jubilee, and the Book of Giants? All of these are accepted as canon by the Ethiopian Orthodox Church and the Coptic church, but Occidental Christians do not include these books in their Bible.

Why is God characterized as masculine?

Why do European Christian churches ignore the Greek Septuagint?

Always the same bullshit, "muh plagiarism". The jewish and christian tribes in the Arabian peninsula didn't have the Bible at Muhammad's time. But sure, an illiterate merchant was going to plagiarize the Bible bc muh Satan.

EVEN if, just like christianity, Islam teaches that Jesus (as) is going to be the one who defeats Satan.

The Bible has no contradictions. Are you serious? It says he made the "lights" in the firmament, which means the stars in the universe.

But hey, even if he did, why does it bother you? I mean the Bible says that Isaac married Rebecca when she was 3 so what's your problem?

Just leave the "Satan" thing out, it's the most dense thing I've ever heard, at least says that it is falsehood.

Because Jesus really is God, and really did rise from the dead. Zoroastrianism is just a persian who read the tanakh, the Jewish scriptures as they were, in the Babylonian captivity, and believed them. And started his own Judaism/pagan fire god cult.

Enoch was not written by Enoch, Jubilees was written after 400 BC when God stopped talking to the Hebrews, and Giants is a gnostic work. None of them were inspired by God. They may be interesting, but they are not scripture.

Because Jesus called God His Father, and because Jesus is a man.

Maybe they're trying to minimize the prophecies of Daniel, like the Jews do. It's hard to trivialize Daniel when his prophecies are so right on the mark, and translated more than a century prior to their fulfillment.

I can be sure it's close, like 99.5% close, and I can be sure the Holy Spirit in me will never lead me astray. There are thousands, no, tens of thousands of manuscripts, and letters, and writings, that can all be textually criticized back to the original autographs, which themselves are inerrant.

Yes, it does. It says divorce is fine, it says you can marry children, it says polygamy is fine. Meanwhile, the Bible says that NO OTHER GOSPEL THAN THE ONE TAUGHT BY CHRIST'S APOSTLES IS THE TRUE GOSPEL. NOT EVEN IF AN ANGEL FROM HEAVEN TEACH ANOTHER GOSPEL UNTO YOU! He is a liar.

Of course the laws of the Torah still apply today. The only laws that don't apply are the ones that Christ explicitly abolished, such as the Sabbath, filth foods, holidays, etc. Only fools believe that the Old Law is completely done away with. Silliness. Stop using straw man arguments.

>What makes Christianity more valid than other, much older religions, such as Zoroastrianism?

It's consistency with reality. I'm not sure what else to say here.

>Why do European churches ignore the Book of Enoch, the Book of Jubilee, and the Book of Giants? All of these are accepted as canon by the Ethiopian Orthodox Church and the Coptic church, but Occidental Christians do not include these books in their Bible.

Akin to the Orthodox, they have churches that came about using books before the Biblical canon was officially established and they like to keep how they were and the rest of their denomination accommodates them despite supporting the council that decided the canon.

>Why is God characterized as masculine?

It's a way of understanding God's role to us. It's a masculine, fatherly one.

>Why do European Christian churches ignore the Greek Septuagint?

They don't.

>How can you be sure the teachings of the Bible you read is in fact the original Bible, given all the revisions, omissions by the ecumenical council and various individuals?

For different denominations, this answer would be different. As a Catholic what is considered canon is declared by the church's authority - the same authority from God by which the canon is written.

Thank you for the answer, you seem to be the only one here capable of civility.

I have issue with some of you answers, however.

1. You say that Jesus is God, but from what I understand this was first definitively stated by the Council of Nicea, several centuries after the death of Christ. Older Christian sects, such as the Arian, firmly believe that since Christ was created by God he was subordinate to him. Christ himself never claimed divinity in the Bible, only that he was the son of God. You seem sure that Christ is God. This does not seem to me to be something one can be so sure of, as whether Christ is divine or not comes down to a shouting match between two groups of mortal men, neither of which can concisely prove their point without resorting to interpretation of text.

2. I don't see how you can be so sure of the authorship of the Book of Enoch, given it's age and the scant documentation surrounding it. If you can concisely demonstrate the invalidity of the Book's alleged authorship, I would appreciate it.

3. Yeah I guess that makes sense. It still seems odd to me to attribute gender to a omnipotent and ecumenical divine force.

Thank you! I myself am not a Christian, but a Jain. Still, I greatly enjoy theological research.

Heaven is a place (or, rather, state) of being in unity with God. Atheists, Muslims and other satan worshippers cannot bear unity with God and will flee to a godless place. A godless place is Hell by another name.

Yes. Light exists outside of the sun. All light does not come from the sun. Light is something completely different.

Sorry Christfag, but Christianity is illusory, it's a necessary illusion for the sake of traditionalist culture/white identity in service of nationalism, but that's it. You need only be a cultural Christian. When it comes to actual theology, I'm afraid that there's too many contradictions, paradoxes and blatant discrepancies that no intelligent person would fall for.

>>139379558
Okay, so you're accusing me of blaspheming, when you're the one claiming that not only Jesus is NOT the Son, but that he was therefore lying about it, since he did kind of say that he was.

Either he was lying and we shouldn't worship him AT ALL (muslims say he was a prophet, although it makes sense considering they follow Muhammad who was one of the most prolific liars of his time), or he wasn't lying and therefore Muhammad is a liar (which he is anyway), and you shouldn't be a Muslim.

The Holy part of Jesus wasn't tempted whatsoever, and that's why Jesus didn't fall for Satan's tricks. The human part was. Jesus experienced the inner struggle humans face constantly. I don't see what's wrong with that.

Jesus was born, Jesus walked on earth, Jesus ate, breathe, was tempted by evil but faced it and won over it because of his prophethood.

Here's what I'm saying.

Muhammad, many times in the Quran, tricked villagers into accepting Islam and therefore his rule. It happened several times, mostly at the beginning. That's deception and deception is a form of lying. So, no matter what, Muhammad is a liar.

They say Jesus is a prophet and they view him like we view the Saints. What my point is, is that they say Muhammad isn't a liar, but no matter what, he has to be. There's two possible scenarios. If they're right, Jesus was a liar, and therefore Muhammad shouldn't have said Jesus was a prophet, since Jesus was blaspheming against God, knowingly. If we're right, Muhammad is a liar anyway.

So no matter what scenario you go with, Muhammad is a liar.

Jesus said he was the son of God though, or at least implied it. He certainly didn't correct anyone when they said that He was.

He wasn't a prophet, he was the son of God, and you view Muhammad higher than you view God. That's just the truth.

You can't hurt God. Yet He suffered on the cross. How is this possible.

Meanwhile, Mohammed literally believed that the "angel Gabriel" was Satan at first. Then he felt like killing himself. The later, he started walking back some revelations because apparently they came from Satan... What a prophet you got there!

Christianity began in 32 AD, and proceeds to the present on the exact same basis: accepting God's invitation to become a part of His family.

Mankind's religions have nothing to do with God; they are all man's attempts to reach up to God, to be like God, to deny God exists, etc. They all fail.

Jesus was not God because some people voted in a council; Jesus is God because He created the universe, and deserves the title "Creator" or "God". And yes, I know this plays havoc with your sense of time being linear, but God does not experience time the same way we do. Jesus is co-eternal with the Father and with the Spirit.

Just quoting the Book of Enoch was almost enough to keep the Book of Jude out of the bible. Enoch was the 7th son of Adam, and nothing he did or said could have endured the Flood, as he was translated directly into heaven just prior. Someone wrote a book and attached his name to it. The same modus operandi for gnostics to claim that the Gospel of Judas, Thomas, Mary, etc., should all be in the bible.

All of the angelic encounters are with angels who appear to be males, but we know from the bible that angels are not male and female; only mankind was created male and female.

And that reason was so that a man and a woman could unite in sexual intercourse and become one being; each distinctly their own person, yet each being in this united couple.

It's a picture of Jesus and the church of believers being united as one, yet retaining our own identities.

because when he made the angels (beings in the direct presence of god i.e. faithless), one turned on him big time (satan) he made humans defective on purpose because of our free will - so that we may choose to love him or not. your life is a test to see if you choose to love him. Its so that the fucked up ones of us who understand god and choose to value our own intellect above his are weeded out and banished to live in our own shit hell for eternity. hes making sure he doesnt get burned again. he created other beings so he wouldnt be alone - the whole point is love by choice.

Are you sure about that? Are we talking about the same Christianity here?

If you're going to argue a religion, at least argue it from the points that make sense.

Your question is "why did God create this universe and populate it with free will moral agents?"

The short answer is so that Love can be the highest ideal, and as God is Love, this is something He desires.

The longer answer is to compare what other universes could have been made.
1. No universe. No Love as highest ideal.
2. Universe of robotic creatures lacking agency. No Love as the highest ideal.
3. Universe where everyone always chooses good and nothing ever chooses evil. Again, Love cannot be the highest ideal.
4. Universe with agency, where evil is possible, and even inevitable, but where love is possible, and Love is the highest ideal.

God went with #4.

You are dead. Right now. Dead.

Because God is Life, and you are separated from that which is Life.

In order for you to change from being dead to being alive, you must be resurrected unto life, and that is what the Holy Spirit does, with your consent. You confess Jesus is Lord, believe in your heart God raised Him from the dead, and the Holy Spirit enters into you and resurrects you to eternal life.

That's the beginning of your new life. That's the moment you are born again, as an infant, into the world of spiritual beings, into the world of new creations in Christ Jesus.

you can do this with the help of the Holy Spirit of God

To be a Christian all you need to do is accept Christ as your lord and savior. You stand in His name before your own like a feudal vassal. Similarly in secular terms the crucial part of Christianity that's needed to maintain western civilization is simply the name that united Europe. When we unite again in the name of Christ His kingdom on earth will come.

All the pieces for a glorious future that were tirelessly built by our long term thinking ancestors are sitting abandoned in favor of purely destructive tools like (((critical theory))) that help us justify lifestyles where we don't need to take responsibility for anything.
