Why can't all the Christians on here be as loving and tolerant as Jesus, the Pope, priests and pastors.....?
Why are there atheists in "Religion and Spirituality", if neither subject they subscribe to. The mere fact that this has been a "atheist's hangout" denotes malice on their part. They wish to blaspheme religion, and belittle and bully believers of whatever faith, religion, and or spiritual entity. If atheists would keep to themselves there would only be inter-denominational conflict, and sect conflict for the most part. Now to address "Christians" I simply don't subscribe to this term, I am not Christ nor do I have the capacity to parallel Him in any way, this was in History a derogatory comment for the followers of "The Way" of which I wouldn't mind being affiliated with, I am all in all a "Christ Follower" or if you prefer "A follower of Christ" nothing more, nothing less. I am currently in my "Walk" with the Holy Spirit, which was made available to me from the atoning blood and justification of Yeshua Ha Meshiach a.k.a. Ieseus Christo a.k.a. Jesus Christ (although I must confess I use Yesus it's closer to the actual pronunciation and He would have answered to it in His day). By no means am I qualified to judge another, especially in their "walk". However do not confuse this with pacifism, Christ calls each of us to be His ambadors and to quote His message liberally, as well as our witness, if these offend you there is no apology. Make sure the label atheist fits if you believe the end of your life brings the end of your existence atheist is a true statement, however if you just choose not to subscribe to Christ's teachings you are "Apostate", if you do not think church organizations understand the Bible correctly you are "Non-Denominational", and if you are waiting for proof you are "Agnostic", there are many terms in this lexicon which better describe than just the broad term "atheist" the term is about as descriptive as "person" better define yourself, and if you tell a knowing believer you are Apostate they are supposed to leave you alone by order of Christ, so you do the math. All in all there are many people who call themselves "Christian" and I will not dispute their claims because Christ and the Bible say"If you abide in Me, and my words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you". "By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be my disciples". "As the Father loved Me, I also have loved you; abide in My love". "If you keep my commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept My Father's commandments and abide in His love." Matthew Ch.15 vs.7-10, so who is to judge the way another loves? not me, but you can see this leaves a wide berth in the beginning of faith in Christ, and as one matures they realize the path narrows of a follower to the narrow gate, so this progession or "walk" depends on the follower, some will proclaim it, and never develop a prayerful relationship with God, and if this the extent of their metamorphosis then they risk at Judgment day Christ saying "I never knew you", if they change and start bearing the fruit of the Gospel and start reaping the souls of the Harvest of God, God will continue to grow in them, and they will start to experience the joy of Heaven here on earth, and some will be Martyred for the sake of the Gospel and others, and they will have a special place at the throne of God, all in all there are many diversified peoples who start the "walk", but few who continue in it, and expand on it, by their own choice, you see the difficulty here? Many will cry "Lord, Lord" that will not enter the Kingdom of Heaven, not because of their acts, but their relationship with Jesus through the Holy Spirit.
