I know, because you are evil and selfish.
Discussion
Wow that escalated quickly. No… it’s because i don’t take it as gospel (so to speak) and i know that people who do take it very seriously and get really upset, easily
As you can see 🥲
You don’t take it as gospel because you commit evil in defiance of it. If you were not rebelling against God, you would accept it as gospel. So the fact that you do not take it as gospel tells me that you are evil. It’s simple.
You can’t be a cunt and then get mad when people are rude back to you.
I simply do not fear or worship your god ser. Please calm down and/or mute me if that helps. None of this makes me evil. I’m actually quite a decent person
You are in fact evil. You will fear Him, but it will be too late. All honor and glory be to God. May you find Jesus.
Have you considered the possibility of a misunderstanding?
We all have evil within us, it is our nature. Anyone who rejects God is completely evil. No amount of good done can balance out the evil.
Are you equipped with the knowledge and discernment to know when someone has truly rejected God?
I am. Hebrews 4:12.
Those who reject the Word of God, have rejected God. John 1. The Word is God.
How do you know what rejecting the Word looks like, reliably? These are just men's words you're showing me. How do you translate them into real knowledge for yourself as applies in context of the world?
With the same uncertainty, how do you or I understand what your interlocutor means with his words?
They are not just men’s words. Perhaps you should read the Bible.
And the other guy is an atheist. He is certainly rejecting God.
You have a strong case on both counts, but I still feel like you've sidestepped the question. You sound just as closed minded as most atheists I've run into. I find it distasteful and counterproductive to getting others to understand you or to discover the truth. You may as well shut up about it as compared to your current approach, from a pragmatic stance.
If you haven't asked yourself these basic epistemic questions that I asked you, then you will have an even harder time answering the questions of those who do not explicitly recognize God.
If on the other hand, your goal is to alienate those who do not explicitly recognize God and use your interpretation of the Bible, such as to physically remove them from your life, you are succeeding.
I was an atheist. I do not care to convince atheists, because they do not listen. Only a close call with death can change them.
The Bible is the word of God. 2 Timothy 3:16.
It is not wise of you to act like you know better than the Word.
You literally act like you know better than the Word because of your authoritarian stance on your ability to interpret it and apply it correctly.
Your assumption about atheists only being convinced by a close call with death is not universal and only shows me that you lack logical rigor. The existence of one case contrary to that disproves it. Further, if you wrongly identify someone as atheist who is just agnostic but open to discussion, by these assumptions you have succeeded only in preventing them from hearing.
You need to work on yourself, bro. Jesus was a lot less assuming than you. A LOT. Because he understood and applied logic. Jesus is unassuming. You have Him with you, but you are not listening.
I do not have an authoritarian stance on the Word. I have a biblical stance on the Word.
You are here denying that the Bible is the Word of God. You are acting like it is just the writings of some men, forgetting who precisely inspired and preserved it.
The Bible is perfect. Anyone who denies it, denies God. This isn’t a matter of debate.
My discernment of his rejection of God was on point, considering he outright said he doesn’t believe in God. This makes him evil. No amount of good works can offset the evil nature of man.
No son of Adam deserves to go to heaven. Not one.
And don’t compare me to Jesus. I am not Him. I cannot even approach His glory.
Seek and ye shall find. Perhaps you yourself are not seeking the proper mode of action.
All who reject the Bible are evil. There is only one reason to rebel. Rebellion against the Creator is a foolish mistake
Absolute indoctrination rooted in fear. Couldn’t be me. If i die and it all ends up to have been true, i will have lived a good life without going around accusing everyone else of being evil. Dare i say i might even stand a chance of getting through the pearly gates. After all, God is good i hear. He’d understand my skepticism. You don’t get to be the judge of my fate that’s for sure.
With that said i suspect that when we die we’re just dead and gone, and i intend to live accordingly (which does not involve being evil)
Done talking to you though. Good luck out there 🫡
When you die, you will be judged for your rebellion against God who is clearly crying out to you.
100 years of sin and an eternity separated from all Love. God is great, He is also righteous, and the unrighteous cannot stand in His presence. He is just, and all retribution is His.
You did not choose to rebel. You are not one of the elect. There will be no convincing you, because you were predestined to fall, and to suffer the loveless hellfire. At least, that’s how it seems to me.
Remember that fear is a signal.
