So basically what you are saying is that because I don't have a faith of any kind whatsoever, I am a negative person, and I don't have a positive outlook?
Don't be so pathetic! LOL!
As I originally said way back when I first joined this discussion, All I have ever had from religious sects is to be belittled simply because I don't believe, again as I've said on more than one occasion I respect people's beliefs, unfortunately I can not respect those that refuse to accept that everyone is entitled to believe in what they want, whether it's some pygmy in the sky, aliens dumping the human gene on this tiny little rock just to see what happens, god, jesus, Allah, or anything for that matter.
With reference to this that you've said...
The same can be said about every other religion out there, therefore the statement is quite irrelevant.
I agree with everything you are saying, and I am not trying to belittle you, I am not judging you, we are all free, to believe what we like, we all have freedom of choice, I have no problem with that.
God does not want, to force anyone to worship him, and that is the point, we can use our free will, up to a certain point, such as obeying the traffic laws etc. and acting in the best interests of others, and not always looking to our own interests.
But also God wants us to obey his laws, out of love for him, because you know at the end of the day, if everyone did there would be no injustice in this world, we live in today, peace and security would prevail, we would not need locks on our doors that's for sure.
I don't whether you have ever said the Lord's prayer, which asked for God's Kingdom to come, well that is what it's all about, not religion, it's about the Kingdom which is a heavenly government, and it is going to take ruler-ship over the earth, and bring about peace throughout the earth.
Now if you knew that information to be true, would you not tell others about it, it's not me thinking I'm better than you, I am giving you some good news, if you are offended by that, there is nothing I can do about it, I didn't bring notice to myself, but it was the kingdom I brought, to your notice, and I tell everyone, I meet, about the Good News about God's Kingdom arrangement, does that make me a bad person?
If you don't want to know, that's your choice, it is not going to change the facts though, is it, God's kingdom will come about, it is guaranteed, or Jesus Christ's ransom sacrifice would have been futile, would you, have had your son put to death, and not carry out the purpose you allowed it?
I don't think so!
So my friend I am not forcing you to believe anything, but I am informing you what I, and many more million believe to be, the absolute truth, and we were instructed by Jesus to tell as many people as we can, out of love for our neighbour,
We see, when we look at the state of the world is in today, the leaders not knowing, where to turn, to get out of this mess, are we not thankful to have the Good News of God's Kingdom, which is soon to step into mankind's affairs, and sort everything out, once and for all time.
Religion, that is not speaking about the Good News of the Kingdom, which is the message throughout the Bible, also is the message, Jesus came to the earth to give, are they not really failing, in telling people the truth?
(Matthew 9:35) And Jesus set out on a tour of all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues and
preaching the good news of the kingdom and
curing every sort of disease and every sort of infirmity.
Jesus was giving a fore-gleam, of what the Kingdom was going to bring about on the earth, marvellous, no-more sickness, and he even raised the dead.
Worth mentioning to people we meet, would you not agree?
So it not about you, it not about me, it's about the Good News of the Kingdom.
A real positive hope for the future?
CJD want's us to thinks like ex apeman, no hope in that, mankind would have no purpose in life, that's why CJD is always positive of the past, because, what he is saying, he has been led to believe, by Satan, who does not want mankind to have a wonderful future, just death in view, is that not the conclusion which results from, the only message CJD he is giving out.
There is very little to think positive about these days, have you been watching the news?
