The above comment made in another thread inspired me to ask the following questions:aglassdarkly wrote: There are millions of Christians that will testify that they were willfully rejecting God, living immoral lives before they came to believe in and trust God.
1. Is it true that millions of Christians were immoral people who were willfully rejecting God before they became Christians?
2. If so, what would cause these immoral people to have a change of heart?
3. Also, if they didn't even believe in a God before they became a Christian then how can it be alleged that they had been "willfully rejecting a God" that they didn't even believe in prior to becoming a believer?
4. Are their any Christians who were never immoral people, or who had never willfully and knowingly rejected God?
5. Finally, what about highly moral people who already believe in God through a different spiritual philosophy? Would they need to become immoral people before they could become a Christian? Clearly they are not rejecting God since they already believe in God.
Personal note: The more people evangelize (or even debate) Christianity with me, the more apparent it becomes that the only way I could become a Christian is to first become a highly immoral person who knowingly and willfully rejects God. But why would I want to do that in the first place? To become a Christian would require that I first become an immoral God-rejecting person. And that makes no sense.
