Lying for Jesus

Because sometimes that much fail is win!

I am aware that people might think I'm crazy due to some of what I'm saying in this post. I don't care because I've seen this stuff firsthand and it's true. I'm not posting to start some debate, either. I don't want to get into a theological or apologetics debate or anything. I just want to tell you what I've experienced. It is difficult to convince people that the Bible is without internal or external contradiction (although I believe it myself), but I believe based on personal experience, not based on the reliability of the Bible. After trying to defend the Bible and my beliefs for months, I think it's as good a time as any to share some personal experiences.

This past week has been spring break at my school. I went with 600 other college students on a mission trip to south Texas, very close to the border. Crazy things happened. Guys, I don't know how to say it, but to say that miracles happen. I personally witnessed a guy's leg get physically healed (and heard several other stories the week from people who I trust with my life). I also personally saw five people come to Christ, and after praying for the Holy Spirit to come and fill them (like they did in the Bible), the people would say they felt "weird," "different," or "excited." One lady even said she felt "caliente" after being praying for a filling of the Spirit. I heard similar stories from friends all week.

And we shared the Gospel wherever we went, and many people came to know Christ. That's not to say we didn't face rejection, but even our bus drivers to and from home and the Subway workers on our dinner stop on the way back came to know Christ. There was no discrimination or specific group of people that were more receptive. Hispanics, blacks, whites, rich, poor, bus drivers, college students, children, adults, etc. They all came to know Christ and I heard crazy stories about people of all sort. After a week in which I experienced the power and love of God in such a tangible way, I don't know what to say but it's real. Having said that, I wonder how many of y'all have heard the Gospel. There might be fewer people on a Religion Board who haven't heard it, but I was surprised at how many people, especially in Texas, had not heard the Gospel.

I'm not sure if the TC is joking. But I agree with what he says. I have read much on the nature of the universe. And every thing I learn just strengthend my faith. When you really study how it's all put together, how everything works.... you realize there HAS to be a God. Hell, just the other day on The Universe, they were talking about how like back in the 90's or something, some star went supernova in such a way that it sent out a wave of energy. This energy, had it hit us, would have totally blown our atmosphere off into space in one gust of interstellar wind. But we were just far enough away that it dissipated before reaching us. Now, ask yourself, out of all the stars out, there logically....shouldn't that have happened by now? I see it as God protecting our planet.

marriage is owned by the church, and it's not up the the government to decide what it includes. If the government wants to treat people fairly, they can do so under their own system. Infringing on the church is not the way to do it.

Dbzmaniax #fundie gamefaqs.com

Well, maybe we have different viewpoints, but I just don't see laughing about God as healthy. I think there has to be a limit to free speech. I mean, I take Jesus (a.s) as a Prophet, not a God, and I am certain that he would be very upset with the idea of believers mocking their God. I think he'll be against TOTAL freedom of speech as well.

[lol Young Earth lol

Its a proven scientific fact that the Earth is like, a trillion years old, and in the Bible, it does say that God's time is seperate from our own]


No it's not a "proven scientific fact". There are theories, sure, but these theories must ignore contrary data such as rates of eroding coasts (there would be no land above water if the earth was really millions of years old), sun depletion, supernovas, animal/human populations, unstable carbon levels in the atmosphere, and a host of other things.

LastManStanding #fundie gamefaqs.com

You are afraid to question your own religion. That's quite sad...

never question my faith, I wanted to spend my life never questioning anything. I want my faith to deepen to understand God's message better, but never question.

OMGWTFPIE #fundie gamefaqs.com

Actually, like I've said a million times before, I adhere to the entire bible. It just so happens that homosexuality comes up more often than any other sin. I don't take lying, murder, cheating, sexual immorality, or anything else any more lightly. But really, how many times do those sins get disputed as "actually being sins" on this board, or anywhere else for that matter?

GameReviews #fundie gamefaqs.com

[About Atheists]
They hate god because they know the BEST case scenario when they die is that nothing happens, worst case is they go to hell and burn. And the fact that they "hate" got is an oxymoron, because atheists supposedly believe god doesn't exist. But many I know in person claim to hate god? Its because most atheists are only the way they are because they are confused, or trying to "be different" or not conform, or think its "cool" or some bullcrap like that, and don't even think about their actual ideals and just like to run around screaming, "look at me!!!!! I'm different!!!".

Killer_Toilet #fundie gamefaqs.com

Multiple gods are only attributed to the things that they are. The Ancient Greeks and Romans had gods for just about anything natural, ideas, and man made. We all know that they could easily be disproved.

As for the Hindu gods, they fail to have a concept of science. They believe that a genetic mutation in both humans and animals are gods, while ignoring the fact that their medical state is pretty poor compared to the Western World. A lot of them never even heard of Christianity. As for the creation and destruction, everything must have an opposite. There is just no more explanation to that. Suppose that Shiva didn't exist if Hinduism is correct? There would be nothing but universal creation. No destruction of matter.

AtomicItalian #fundie gamefaqs.com

Cause as far as I'm concerned, God created the morals we are to adhere to. Since God makes the rules, then hell CANNOT be "immoral" because HE has created what is moral and what is not moral. If God, the creator of Morals, says "eternity in Hell for not following me is moral" then guess what--its moral!

YouAreWinnar66 #fundie gamefaqs.com

Ok, black arachnid. My response would be to check the peer review process itself. Being biased towards creationism has effectively nothing to do with peer review really, as national geographic and scientific american have been running blatantly pro-evolution, anti-creation content for some time now. This is why creationists have published their findings in their own journals, respectively.

YouAreWinnar66 #fundie gamefaqs.com

To me, ID theory is legitimate and has an enormous amount of scientific data backing it up, while astrology has nothing going for it. In any case, what makes ID and astrology different is one has some legitimate backing, while the other is more or less just for quacks.

Silviiro #fundie gamefaqs.com

I get 99% of all that I pray for. Because of this I am very careful about what I pray for. Sometimes I get things in eerie ways. As an example, I was running trash at the local Native American Powwow. I was completely exhausted, so I prayed for my dad to show up and take me home. I saw him literally 5 minutes later. He must have left right after I prayed.
Another example, my dad signed me up for a flag football game and I really didn't want to play. I prayed that I would get out of it somehow. Strangely the rest of my team showed up late and I didn't have to play.
These examples and many others have convinced me of the power of prayer. To those that get nothing from prayer I think you may be praying incorrectly.

GeneralCortez #fundie gamefaqs.com

Call me a crybaby, but I truly have no trust or faith in the future generations, and in all seriousness, I could see our first angtheist president trying to illegalize religion due to "discrimination" against homosexuals.

Only Christianity though, Muslims and Jews can continue to be bigots all the hell they want for some reason

X-Japan #fundie gamefaqs.com

1. Most atheists are full of themselves and arrogant. You see it in these boards, you see it in that sign they put up in Washington disrespecting Jesus and his birthday.

2. Most atheists are apathetic in life. All they do is be spiteful and bitter towards others for no reason. They are very angry. Why? They haven't found God yet.

3. Everything in this world has been constructed in such a perfect way. There must of been a power behind the scenes creating the masterpiece that we see today. The Big bang is a useless theory that has already been disproven by scholarly and respected theologians.

[on a poll about if their son had a boyfriend]
I would have to wonder where I went wrong that he would even possibly consider doing this. And if he did, I would forbid him to ever see this person again, remind him of exactly how and why this behavior is sinful, take him to a priest for confession, go to confession myself for my failure in allowing it happen in the first place, and then have both of us do serious penance.

proudtexasgirl #fundie gamefaqs.com

[So why do you care in the least bit?]

Because I find homosexual couples to be, quite frankly, completely disgusting. It's just my morals and values. Men are made for women; women are made for men. Hence, the difference in genitals, testosterone, estrogen, etc. Excuse me if my morals are a little primitive, but there are just some things that should not be changed (i.e. marriage).

PityDaFool #fundie gamefaqs.com

[And just because you think [Homosexuals] are wrong doesn't mean your opinion is "the TRUTH or RIGHT."]

I based my opinion on the Bible, which I believe is the inspired, written Word of God. God is never wrong and never makes a mistake. So why would he create people *** from birth? They CHOOSE that sinful lifestyle, just like the career criminal, or serial rapist, or someone who constantly steals and never repents. It's all sin, and God hates sin.

GetOutOfMyYard #fundie gamefaqs.com

Being tolerant is fine depending on what you're tolerant of. Homosexuality is one thing I am not fine with people tolerating. Teaching children to tolerate it only creates more confusion and more division in our society. Tolerance isn't a concept that should be taught at an early age to begin with.

pikmintaro #fundie gamefaqs.com

Just another blind atheist with flawed logic your link was worthless and made no sense whatsoever I don't care what happens to you and I don't care about your opinion either.

The great thing being a Christian is even if I'm wrong what will happen? I'll just die and turn to dust but if I am right (Which I am) then I go to heaven and you... well you can continue on in arrogance and see what happens.

It really is wonderful and no argument any blind Atheist could bring up could ever stop me from believing the truth the beautiful wonderful absolute truth of God Jesus and the Holy Spirit!

Praise God and may Jesus come soon I will never allow any blind human to open a door to close minded atheist thinking even partially!

God gives us exactly what we want if Atheists want to be separated from God forever in their own world for all eternity then so be it have fun ;)


Also even if there was a "Big Bang" then who lit the fuse? ;) HAHA

Oh and welcome to my Ignore list TC because I really don't feel like reading any more opinions from satanists who are blind to the truth ¬_¬

vsthreadmaker12 #fundie gamefaqs.com

Okay, think of this scenario. !!!!!! =)

What would Jesus do on a Halloween Night with a little girl or boy ?

For example, when He opens the door what would He put into her or his pumpkin ?

Would he reccomend other houses to go to and just close the door ? =(

Would he tell her that He doesn't have any Good Stuff for her ?=(

Would He even refuse to share anything nice with her ?=(

Or would he use thies Wonderful Platinum Opportunity to share His love with her. (By giving a miraculous experience , or His word in the Bible, or something like a Chick Tract, where the child can use the information contained inside it to let Jesus come in to him or her . ) He would also give some lollipop and other candies so the child will have a memorable time while reading the Bible or the Chick tract . =)

That is write , either three of the things in the last choice would happen ! You should also do what the Son Of God would do ! =)

This Halloween , I suggest you participate in a soul winning spree ! Get some Chick tracts or other Gospel Material. (Note that it should be based on the KJV Bible ! ) You can also give your own Good Stuff for the little children as long as it is considered Godly and is related to True Christianity.

Do what Jesus would do this Halloween !!!

P.S It doesn't matter if you do not think I am not serious. We are in the End Times, as judging by the Current Events today. Alot of souls will be lost if you don't do anything. You can go to.

www. chick.com- You can see some Great Stuff here. Bible material can also be read on the site.

http://www.raptureready.com/index.php - You can get more information about the End Times here.

http://www.rr-bb.com/index.php - You can discuss stuff with wise, intelligent,Politically Correct, and Generally knowlegable people here. Seriously , you will read MINDBLOWING stuff here you did not know before. It will prepare you for Heaven and God's Love.

Thank you if you participate to gain more souls to be able to experience His love.

The antichrist is supposed to come as a political leader, from beliefs. After Rome comes back to power, (This happened through the European Union) and the antichrist will come, seeming to have all the answers. Very educated, also. And the leader comes to help in a crisis time, when people need help, and the economy is bad.

Vote McCain '08.

He's not going to enslave the world if you don't believe in God/Jesus.

sat question: how many legs do insects have?

tc puts 4, tc fails

If the Bible says that insects have four legs, then the SAT is wrong and I am write, period ! =)

I do not no why they even made me go to hih school . And I tried to be held back one grade but they let me go on to tenth grade then I got hold enough to drop out. I had to hear the doctrine of evolution in biology tho. but i forgot all about so now I am happy ! =)

I would not survive a year in College unless it was a Bible College . Many of the people like me go there so I will do great . =)

I want to be like this person when i grow up. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BYaKAjh_Mk

I will always oppose the evils of athiesm and humanism and intellectualism.

Do aliens contradict Biblical teaching

If that is true than I will deny the existence of it even if it is right in front of me. It will probably be a servant of Satan in disguise. If it kills me than praise Jesus because then I will be in Heaven with Him.

For the purposes of this hypothetical, I'm going to assume you have a back yard wherever you live.

If you looked out your window, and saw the grass in your yard was green, but the bible clearly said it was blue, what would you do?

That's sort of the way it is with heliocentrism. We can look out the proverbial window and see that the Earth orbits the Sun as plain as we can see that grass is green. I'm just wondering what you do with the conflicting evidence.

I will get my eyes fixed in order to adjust to Biblical truth.

Greece was where the dangerous philosphies of "reason" and "empiricism" arose.

Please leave that evil place.

Why don't you do your own godamned reasearch? You do know that there are actual historical documents of Jesus that were not in the Bible, but instead held by it's own government or something. And also how about lost biblical text? There was a recently found book of judas found a couple years back.


[I'm aware of Jesus of Nazareth. That does not prove God's existence, however.]


So explain how Jesus was able to be raised from the dead for 40 days after spending 3 days in Hell.

[He wasn't. There's no proof of this. It's just a fairy tale in the Bible.]


You just contradicted yourself. You told me he did exist, and now your telling me he didn't do anything like that.

Master Epyon #fundie gamefaqs.com

Atheism is a religion for people who worship themselves instead of God. Atheists tend to suffer from a rare, more aggressive form of unwarranted self-importance. Atheists typically think they are smarter than you no matter what. Just try to correct them on something and prepare to be blasted away with some "SERIOUS ****ING LOGIC".

Don't you guys know that God doesn't believe in atheists? Atheists are never moral because they do not believe in God.

The idea that a supreme being either always existed or came into existence at some point and then intelligently created the universe just makes more sense

An intelligently created universe fashioned by nothing....sorry no, odds are good someone you admire in your life is an atheist and believes this, or you grew up with family that thought you should believe in this. The idea that the universe magically popped into existence, MAGICALLY creating anything when it is not a living being and has no intelligence is just garbage fed to you by your professors/family members who are atheists and hate "god" because of something bad that happend in their life

The_Little_King #fundie gamefaqs.com

Let's also remember that monks were the ones that pratically kept books alive and were pratically the only literate people back then. Also the Crusades also helped pull Europe out of the Dark Ages because it created trade opportunities which helps the economy duh.
Also on the Colonial period I don't think it was so much about religion that we were fighting Native Americans but we wanted to expand farther west and some Native American nations were blocking the way.

[Despite being linked to the Treaty of Tripoli, he really did post this]

Oh and I'd like to add that I lol that the U.S was not founded on Christianity. Nearly all the original U.S. leaders were Christian. Christianity was originally taught in public schools. The pledge of allegiance mentions God. You don't have to agree with the original leaders to admit that they founded the U.S. on Christianity.

The real idiots are the ones who say that homosexuality is okay and call it "reason". There is no reasoning to such a conclusion. All it amounts to is an excuse for homosexuals to continue on living their lifestyle. "I can't help it! I was born this way!" I don't have time for people who believe such nonsense, and I will not tolerate being called an idiot by them.

__NFK__ #fundie #homophobia gamefaqs.com

Morality is not relative. There is a set right and a set wrong. The only reason people believe morality is relative is because of evolution being taught in schools.

Not that I'm trying to make an argument, because what I just said would be completely absurd and close-minded to anyone who doesn't believe what I believe. But it's absolutely stupid to want people to separate church and state, because for anyone who actually believes in their religion, it's impossible to separate it from anything because it encompasses your entire life.

It's not that I hate homosexuals, I just don't think they should be homosexual. Simple. If everyone was homosexual, the human race would die out. I do believe that some people have a stronger tendency to be homosexual, they are more susceptible, but in the some way some people are more easily angered. Doesn't mean you should be angry all the time.

If I believed there is no Christian God than I would not find anything inherently wrong with homosexuality. I would find it socially inadequate and a bad situation for a child to grow up in though. What do you mean it wouldn't confuse a child? If everyone else had a mom and a dad and one kid had two dads, I'd sure as heck be confused.

What I have a problem with is that if you DON'T believe homosexuality is okay, you're labeled as a bigot and intolerant. You no longer have a choice in this society if you want to be respected.

People want Christians to be loving and accepting. Loving we are (or should be). Accepting we cannot be. Asking a Christian or anyone with a religion to accept a different religion or accept something that goes against their religion is asking someone to renounce that their faith is true.

In no way does the Bible justify slavery and racism. If anything, evolution justifies it because there are no set morals. Some people have used evolution as a mechanic to say that black people are evolutionarily inferior. The Bible teaches that we're all people, we're all sinners, anyone can be saved.

The crap that people pull from the Bible that says it supports slavery and racism is all twisted and doesn't show an understanding of the context or the times.

masterchimp10 #fundie gamefaqs.com

Open acceptance of homosexuality does lead to it being encouraged. People will wind up doing things like marrying their best friend just for the heck of it and only existing for the shallow pleasuring of themselves. It's already starting, I know too many people that argue that gender shouldn't even be a barrier of romantic love. Romantic love should be reserved for a man and a woman. Friendly love and pure lust are too often confused and twisted together into one emotion where people decide to just be gay for the fun of it.

__NFK__ #fundie gamefaqs.com

Evolution is only popular because it's a belief that, if true, means that there are no real set of morals. You can do whatever you want and not have to answer to anyone. Similar to idols like Baal or what not.

Think about it this way - what would Jesus do? Would he forgive me, or would he report me for trolling? Obviously he would forgive me and not report me. So unless you dont believe in God! you will NOT report me, and if you already had reported me, will will retract your report!!
