So, it seems that everything talked about in another thread leads to religion.
So here we are! Debate the existence of God and which one's right and stuff. I would post links to God threads 1 & 2, but you can't search for three-letter words. ![]() (2 got to 50 pages, think we can beat it?!?) Er, I'll start. I'm atheist. Prove me wrong. By prove, I mean state facts that have been backed up by solid evidence. I have yet to see that happen in all 70 combined pages of threads 1 & 2. |

1. What is faith, exactly?
uh...belief in Jesus Christ, that he was the one and only God. and that He died for our sins. 2. How can we know that we are operating under fatih? many people who say they are christians have christianity as just part of their life. you are operating under faith when your entire life REVOLVES around your faith. not just one part of it. 3. How do we gain accurate knowledge from mechanisms of faith? read the bible.... 4. What exactly are the mechanisms of faith? Well. Following God and his rules to the best of your ability. Admitting that you are a sinner. Believing that Jesus died for our sins, then rose again. committing your life to serving God with the talents He gave you. 5. Of what value is faith? 6. Of what use is faith? kinda the same question. something i think people dont understand (atheists...)...when they ask the question, "why doesnt God just come save us?" well, as a christian, life is hard. its inevitable. life is hard. and you might not be satisfied with your life AND THAT IS RIGHT. cause you were made for more than that. you think Earth is your final destination? nononno, earth is just "an inch on a tape measure from New York and San Francesco." Only at HEAVEN will we be satisfied. the Switchfoot CD, "Nothing is SOund" nothing satisfies here on earth. so why doesnt God save us? save us from what? save us from Death? haha, death is the one way to SATISFACTION. even the most "christiany" people you know are totally satisfied. and why doesnt God give us all salvation? well, some believe in predestination. others say that ....idunno cause i beleive in predestination. |
