  • Wanting to become saved

    Hello everyone! I am an athiest, but I have been looking around these forums, and I was thinking of becoming a christian. I've started reading the bible also. I do not currently have a favorite bible verse, but I will soon!
    In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
    And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
    Genesis, 1. 1

    Not much point you saying anything else for now then. Unless you want to let us know how Genesis is going for you.

    Get reading. It's full of wonder. I still get a laugh out of my kids with the talking donkey.

    John 5:46,47 For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: for he wrote of me. But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words?

      I do have a favorite verse so far,

      In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
      And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
      Genesis 1:1-3

      I was going to put this in my signature, but sadly I cannot find the button for editing my profile for this

        1 Corinthians 11:3 But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God.

        Revelation 22:15 For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.

        Leviticus 20:13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.

          GLORY! you'd be amazed how many people come to Landover burning with a desire to know God but overlook the simple fact that God made everything purely because He felt like it and because He could.

            It's mainly the part when God said '' Let there be light. And there was light.'' I found it important because God created the light that has the power to save non believers.

              Yep.

              God is the coolest guy I know.

              Good point, well made.

                  I'll let you in on a little secret: ALL atheists are thinking of becoming Christians. Every single one of them. They know their hatred of Jesus is foolish, and are constantly thinking of an "escape strategy" for when the poopy hits the fan.

                  This is why you have people like Christopher Hitchens screaming out for forgiveness and rushing to accept Jesus Christ as his Personal Savior on his deathbed. This is after DECADES of Hitchens spitting in the sweet, sweet face of Our Lord on a daily basis.

                  Did he make it in time? Was his repentance genuine? I don't know. Either he will be singing songs in Heaven next to me for Eternity, or I will be laughing at him as he writhes in flames forever.

                  Either way, it's God's Plan and that means it's perfect.

                  In the meantime, ask yourself: will I have the opportunity to accept Jesus when my time comes? Look, you could be eaten by a tiger or step on a landmine at any moment, and then it's too late. Better get right with God before he smites you!



                  Yours in Christ,

                    Well, to be honest, I don't think it's Christianity that you want to revert to. Look inside yourself and think.... Are we alone? Could there possibly be other life out there?.... if so, please PM me and maybe we could come up with a plan to set up a church or something.
                    Leviticus 20:27
                    A man also or woman that hath a familiar spirit, or that is a wizard, shall surely be put to death: they shall stone them with stones: their blood shall be upon them.
