Who do YOU think He is?

Post #1

Post by Rose2020 »

A question for doubters and atheists. Many times there are comments that say the God of the Old Testament was harsh, wrathful and even cruel.

What about Jesus Christ? What do these people think of Him? Born humbly, he lived gently. He never hurt or killed anyone, as an adult he never had wealth or even a home.. In His ministry He healed multitudes, teaching everyone about love and forgiveness and the Kingdom of Heaven. Then He sacrificed Himself in the worst death possible, dying to pay for our sins. The reason being that He thinks we are worth it, each one of us.

Not a pleasant prospect if you have miscalculated! Eternity is a long time.
Is this threat based on the teachings of this supposedly nice guy Jesus? If so, it seems to defeat your claims that Jesus was so much different than his O.T. dad.

To be clear: Atheism is not a disbelief in gods or a denial of gods; it is a lack of belief in gods.

I must assume that knowing is better than not knowing, venturing than not venturing; and that magic and illusion, however rich, however alluring, ultimately weaken the human spirit.
