I have a few questions.

[Gallery]

Hello, my name is Jade. I will start off by saying that I am agnostic, and indeed not a Christian but I just wanted to ask you guys a few questions, if that's alright. I am not here to flame you or hate, I just want to ask questions.

Why is it that you refer to those who are unsaved as 'trash'?

What version of the Bible do you read?

Why is it that you think Atheists and people of other religions don't belong in America?

How do you act in person to someone of a different faith/an atheist?

I may have more later, but for now that is all. Thank you in advance for taking time to answer me!

Son, each one of these questions can be answered by using the "search" function. In the mean time, why don't you tell us when that priest raped you so long ago and made you hate Jesus.

Oh, I am sorry. I just registered here! Didn't know there was a search option. I will use that. Thank you for telling me.

No priest raped me, and I actually don't hate Jesus. That was not really needed.

Well I suppose a good majority of my questions were answered. I still was hoping for more individual answers from some of you guys, but if not that is okay. Thanks for sending me that link.

You don't hate Jesus but you're not a Christian? I see no one told you about Him and His Great and Perfect Sacrifice made for you! Because of course if you knew about this Wonderful Sacrifice He made on your behalf to appease the Mighty Wrath of God, then you would be overwhelmed with gratitude and devote your life to serving Him like we have! Unless you were raped and subsequently brainwashed into hating Him.

You're a confusing person Mr. Gallery.

Indeed, I don't hate Jesus but I am not a Christian. Not every person that is not a Christian hates Jesus. You can think that I was 'raped' or 'brainwashed' but that is not the case. I was not really looking for a debate and simply answers to my questions. (I am a women by the way.)

Dear Shelby;

This is called the Introductions section of the forum for a reason. It is not the "ask random questions and play gotcha with the Christians" section.

Please tell us about yourself, the church you were raised in, the events that turned you against God, and your family, hobbies, etc.

If you'd like to find out more about Landover Baptist Church, please read THIS thread created especially for new posters.

If you have a question, use the "search" function before posting it. Most likely it is being discussed somewhere on this Godly forum. Please don't waste God's precious bandwidth.

You will keep a respectful tongue in your head whenever addressing your betters, which includes all True Christians™. Failure to do so, or any attempt at inciting debate or mockery of God's Divine Plan, can and will result in the suspension of your posting privileges.

I guess I'm confused as to why you wouldn't be grateful to someone who died (temporarily) on a cross in your place because you so clearly deserved it. Are you a Jew or just spoiled anyway?

I apologize for making this thread in a wrong place. I simply wanted answers because my stay on this forum won't be long since that is really all I am here for. I will again make it known that I wasn't looking for a debate, I just had questions and answers would have been enough for me. I am not really one to argue about the beliefs of others. I am very interested in learning about them though.

But, I can tell you about myself if you would like. I was raised in a Methodist home in Ohio. It was a rather small church and a lot of my childhood was spend there. I also used to attend a rather small Baptist Church as I entered my years as a teen. I stopped attending church there and that was really the end of my time as a Christian. There was no major event in my life that turned me away from Christianity, I suppose I just drifted away from it.

It's not that I am ungrateful at all, but you may think whatever you would like about me. I do not appreciate being spoken to in such an aggressive manner when I have not been that way towards you.

Re: I have a few questions.

Well Jesus has obviously called you here for a reason. He wants to keep you from "drifting" into hellfire.

Won't you please get on your knees now and beg Christ to take you back? He's waiting for you with open arms.

Perhaps that is a that is a very true statement.

I am not quite willing to do that just yet sir. Perhaps you could direct me to some parts of the Bible I could read over? It's been years since I have opened mine and that may also answer some of my other questions and such. I would greatly appreciate that.

Re: I have a few questions.

Why is it that you refer to those who are unsaved as 'trash'?

On the last day, the LORD will resurrect those who rejected His kind offer of Redemption and throw them into the Lake of Fire with satan and his demons, where they will all endure unfathomable torments for all eternity (see Revelation 20:11-15). Jesus frequently alluded to this being God's way of "taking out the trash."

Matthew 3:12
Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.
(see also Luke 3:17)

Matthew 7:16-19
Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

Matthew 13:38-42
The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;
The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.
As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.
The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;
And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

Does being an agnostic sound so cool now, Jade? It's going to be pretty hard to stay cool while blue-hot flames jet through your rotten eye sockets for all eternity in the fiery pits of hell with the rest of the unsaved trash who fail to meet the conditions necessary to receive Christ's unconditional love.

What version of the Bible do you read?

We read God's Word as preserved in the King James Authorized Version ©1611.

Psalm 12:6-7
The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.
Thou shalt keep them, O Lord, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.

All other translations are false, designed by satan to deceive even Christ's very elect.

Why is it that you think Atheists and people of other religions don't belong in America?

Atheists are fools (Psalm 14:1). They deny the Truth within them and are addicted to sin. You can read more about the delusion of atheism here.

America is a Christian Nation. Non-Christians are parasites who benefit from the blessings God bestows upon us; meanwhile, they add nothing back into the system. We don't need them here, corrupting our society and trying to prey on our children. If they don't love Jesus and the principles established by our Evangelical Founders, they should just get the hell out.

Fortunately, one of the two major political parties in the country also sees things our way and are working every day to ensure that America stays a Christian Nation - a shining city on the hill.

Matthew 5:14
Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.

How do you act in person to someone of a different faith/an atheist?

First, I try to read them some Scripture and share my witness with them. If that doesn't get through to them, I rebuke them with furious rebukes. Christ died for their sins. Who do they think they are to turn their noses up at His temporary sacrifice?

II Timothy 4:1-5
I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom;
Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine.
For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.

If they still haven't accepted Christ, then I shake the dust off my feet and have nothing further to do with them. They are dead to me, and I will have nothing to do with those who deny Jesus.

Matthew 10:14-15And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.
Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.

II Corinthians 6:14-17
Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?
And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,

II John 1:9-11
Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.
If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:
For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.
