Tne very definition of "Good" is to go what God wants, becaue God is good.
The very defintion of "Evil" is to fail to do what God wants, for whatever reason.
Thus if an unbeleiver saves me from falling (which by the way, is intervening with Gods will, and is no different from cloning or stem-cell murder or homosexuality or abortion) that does not make you "good" because the definition of "good" is to be a believer and the definiton of "evil" is to be an unbeliever.
Believe and you get heaven. Fail to believe and Jesus will send you to be tortured forever.
John 3:16. It's not the most popular Bible verse for nothing.

Really, now you're just being silly. All your childish ranting and cussing won't make God go away, and it won't scare us off, either. We just want you to come to Jesus; the fact that you're sitting on our Church forum indicates that you want to, as well!

Honestly I can be very vulgar, its part of the American culture. we were made in the image of "God" as that we have the cognitive ability, not in a literal image of "God". If that was the case, you wouldnt be able to see us...
Im also a white guy living in urban suburbia, and I have one (1) ONE Christian mother, and a Christian father, and they are both dissapointed in my choice to pay attention to how stupid the religious are. And, on the note of wanted to be saved by jesus, Im just here to make fun of you and its really fun. The screenshots and quotes of all these pedophiles and rapists and racists will really help my supreme court case against vocal baptists, so thank you for that
P.S. That childish ranting as you put it is the educated (thats when you go to school and learn from books not written by your imagination and graduate (thats pronounced GRA-JEW-ATE)) opinion and views of a lawyer and PHD in Psychology, Criminology and World Religions. What do you have to show for? NOTHING. When I say Jesus was a jew, what do you say?
My Fav Passage? Why Romans 1: 18-32 ofcourse!
"18The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness, 19since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them." It goes on to explain that this passage is not about gays, and that they wont burn in hell.

Since you've never seen God, how can you say what He does or does not look like? The Bible says we are made in His image.

Yes, I'm sure your parents are disappointed that they must come down to the basement and tell you to keep both hands on the desk so frequently.
Did you do the laundry yet? Mommy's getting tired of cleaning up after you.
Tell me, what are you fantasizing about suing us for? Not telling you feel-good lies about the Bible on our own, adults-only, registration-required forum?

If Jesus were a Jew, that would mean that He worships Himself AND also denies His own divinity.
I think your claim that Jesus is a Jew proves that you have never studied logic and have limited reasoning ability.
If the Internet connection in your parents' basement is sufficient, I suggest you try a nice online education course in logic, and a series in basic English grammar. They'll take you far further than your PhD from Imaginary U.

Feel better? Because I know I do. Having just recieved the truth delivered from "God"'s own instrument of rectification.
WHOA! Reality Check! Who's acting childish now? I’m arguing real issues, true logic and sensibility and you throw out insults I haven’t heard since grade school? The insolence coming from you is unbearable. Thank you for the semi intelligent argument though. Enjoy heaven in all its glorified sanctity

Wow, you spent half an hour to not answer any of my questions. You didn't argue a single issue, nor have you demonstrated any logic nor sensibility. Instead, you've lied about an education you clearly do not have, and attempted to insult us.
Impressive school, this Imaginary U. I bet you're captain of the debate team, right?
You're a troll, and not even a clever or amusing troll. You're a high school kid at best, attempting to get a rise out of the "Jesus freaks".
Here's a news flash, little boy. You're on the fast-track to Hell, and Jesus will be shoving you down into the flames with one sandaled foot. Not because you insult us, oh no. Because you deny and insult HIM.
Enjoy your eternity of torture.

Jesus is the son of man, son of "God" not "God" itself, this was stated clearly in the bible. I didn’t rebuke any of your comments because there just isn’t a point in arguing, in my experience, a rational person cannot win an argument with an irrational person, ever, because the irrational person in their irrationality chooses to ignore reason and sensibility. I also do not deny that Jesus existed, he was an amazing teacher and brought to all people wonderful gifts and revelations that some use to better their lives, however, there are other people, like yourselves who choose to pick the parts out of the bible you like, ignoring the others. Like for instance the fact that Jesus never once set out to make a religion out of himself, but only to better and fulfill the Jewish Prophecy.
I happen to have never read a single comic book in my life, thank you very much. I’m not a high school student trying to get my kicks out of the "Jesus Freaks". Surprising that you would refer to yourself like that though. Now I have read the bible, in fact I've read the King James Bible, The New International Bible, The New American Bible and the New Revised Standard Edition. I was educated in Christian Schools my whole life.
I think you missed most of the new testament though, because in all standard bibles, include the KJV1611, it says that your "God" is a merciful and loving "God", not one who goes around smiting people for exercising its greatest gift, freedom of choice. I choose to believe that there may just be some omniscient entity out there, but I do not attempt to give it any characteristics, or emotions, for that would mean that I assume to know the Truth, and no one person will ever know the Truth. It’s impossible, as it is a figment of perception.
I would also like to see Jesus push me into hell with his foot; I think it would be fun to see how long I can hang on. But just as a last word, you stand before "God" on your own good conscience, not on that of others. I will leave you to ponder these words, and see what you can come up with, this is not an insult, but simply an indication that you do not know everything, and nor will you at any point in any time or space.
--Sister Mary Maria--
Do with me whatever you see fit, personally it doesn't matter, only "God" and I know my true intentions, so you are the one who will decide whether you are fit to judge me.

God is loving and merciful, we have never said He wasn’t. God gives people the freedom of choice and when they choice wrong (like Southern California did last summer) God punishes them as a loving father should (by burning their houses). We can be sure the Southern Californians will have learned their lesson and will strive to be better Christians now.
Friend, what you don't understand is we TRUE Christians™ embrace all of The Bible. Not just the feel good parts.
Time to reclaim our FREEDOM from the “Mullah in Chief” and his growing activist voter hoards of socialists, communists, anti-Semites, anti-Christians, atheists, radical gays and lesbians, feminists, illegal immigrants, Muslims, anti-Anglo whites and others.

It really doesn't matter where your heart is if Jesus isn't in it. You can ask all you want, but GOD doesn't give handouts to non-believers.
Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts. (James 4:3)
So why let all your good deeds go unrewarded? Say yes to Jesus today!

Ah, you seem to have a sort of one-two going on there with the LORD?
Don't mock Him son. We have been there, have the T-shirt, or perhaps even the thong, but we know better.
My (cattlick) grandma used to say: "the road to hell is paved with good intentions". I never forgot that, and long after the old bitty died, I used to repeat those same words to my wife prior to beating her up.
"Oh, this piece of rail seems to be in the way of that poor snail, let me get some tools and remove it."
And then the JESUS TGV comes along. Kedingading kedingading...
No more snail, no more me, no more WD40, but ... the train just goes along without derailment.
Friend: what is good or bad is not your call. It's our LORD who made those calls, long before you knew of His existance, or were even a glimmer of hope in your dad's eye. He noted those start and end-times in a roadbook called the KJV Bible.
Repent now, or become an elephant squashed in the Channel Tunnel, it is entirely up to you.
If you don't... well... Probably Satan himself will tell you that he means well with his Barbed Taly-Whacker up your pooper. (and no WD40, nor KY jelly around).
You decide friend. We can only provide you with the directions. We are the TomTom of faith.
Psalm 81:10:
I am the LORD thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt:
open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.

Let me give an example to the mentality of an extreme believer. Say someone on this forum registers a user name such as "Pastor Bob" and spends weeks, even months making others believe that he himself is a true believer. He goes about making friends, preaching, copy/pasting excerpts from the Bible and then makes a thread saying that his mass amount of belief has granted him the ability to speak to God; that God came to him in his consciousness and spoke to him of marvelous events. What these friends of Pastor Bob do not know is that the Pastor has actually lied about all of these occurrences. Lied about his belief, lied about his favorite Bible readings and lied about the events that took place after. Yet they truly believed him. Giving him praises, blessings and all of those positive things.

That's just implausible. I'm confident that no-one here would ever lie about their beliefs and falsely pretend to be a Christian.

If you've read the Bible, presumably you'll have got as far as the story of Adam and Eve. Perhaps you'd like to tell us about how that shows God is merciful and loving and would never smite anyone for using freedom of choice?
O Lord our God, help us to tear their soldiers to bloody shreds with our shells; help us to cover their smiling fields with the pale forms of their patriot dead; help us to drown the thunder of the guns with the shrieks of their wounded, writhing in pain; help us to lay waste their humble homes with a hurricane of fire; help us to wring the hearts of their unoffending widows with unavailing grief; help us to turn them out roofless with little children to wander unfriended the wastes of their desolated land in rags and hunger and thirst, sports of the sun flames of summer and the icy winds of winter, broken in spirit, worn with travail, imploring Thee for the refuge of the grave and denied it--for our sakes who adore Thee, Lord, blast their hopes, blight their lives, protract their bitter pilgrimage, make heavy their steps, water their way with their tears, stain the white snow with the blood of their wounded feet! We ask it, in the spirit of love, of Him Who is the Source of Love, and Who is the ever-faithful refuge and friend of all that are sore beset and seek His aid with humble and contrite hearts. Amen.
God being truth, justice, goodness, beauty, power, and life, man is falsehood, iniquity, evil, ugliness, impotence, and death. God being master, man is the slave. Incapable of finding justice, truth, and eternal life by his own effort, he can attain them only through a divine revelation... he who desires to worship God must harbor no childish illusions about the matter, but bravely renounce his liberty and humanity.

Oh, was it?
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
John 1:1
And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
John 1:14
I and my Father are one.
John 10:30
And they stoned Stephen, calling upon God, and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.
Acts 7:59
'Jesus isn't God' is a common myth amongs opinionated fools who've NEVER read the Bible;
Yet still think they actually have a clue as to what they're talking about.
Try reading the Bible, then come back.

Of course he/she can, and we're winning every argument against you.
You're right however, that an ignorat fool doesn't know he is one, nor that he is losing..
And look at you, even though we show you wrong every single time -
You keep up your stupidity, only pushing another dumb idea.

You're a terrible liar..
It's obvious you have no idea what the Bible says..
Seriously, you don't even know about the trinity so just who do you think you're fooling here?
If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself: But if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it.
A foolish woman is clamorous: She is simple, and knoweth nothing.

Well I'm sure that if you spent more time reading the Bible and less time trying to recreate the dystopian novel 1984, you would realize that there are hundreds of stories that come after Adam and Eve in the old testament, especially in the Septuagint where "God" Smites man, but then low and behold the New Testament comes around and HOLY CRAP! God had a change of gas and is now not so smiteful...but wait, the Bible only says so much, maybe we should ask Jesus to mediate for us? But he can't, he's kind of busy being the right hand of the Father and all. But just for the hell of it, Jesus, if you can read this, could you explain your true intentions, the ones that no man, woman, or child will ever understand to these, the people made in the image of your father, and to tell them a secret that no one else will ever know? Thank you
If you read the Bible, you would realize that the New Testament is actually more recent than the Old Testament, so its a little more credible.
My Fav Passage? Why Romans 1: 18-32 ofcourse!
"18The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness, 19since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them." It goes on to explain that this passage is not about gays, and that they wont burn in hell.

Oh are you talking about the holy trinity here? Or the trinity your blank and blank make when you squish them all together because you're bord with life?
The Holy Trinity is The Father, The Son, and the Holy Spirit.

That is true, but Jesus didnt say, "I am my Father" he said "I and my Father am one." which means he is one with God, not actually God.
