You speak of Jesus's return, like if he had ever left. This is nonsense, it's called apocalyptic eschatology. eschatology is Greek that comes from the Greek éschatos which means the end of the world. End times, apoc apocalypse is Greek for revelation or unveiling, revealing. So apocalyptic eschatology means telling you how the world ends with the return of God so all this crap that is happening to us will be taken care of. So, God is planning to make his return to smite all his enemies to destroy all these empires who have besieged humanity. This is nothing more than Greek mythology, and you and many others call it Christianity End-times prophecy. Just nonsense.
No, this is reality, and unless you repent, you too will perish. God has set before you life and death—choose life @SonofaCoalMiner. Repent and believe in His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ.
What exactly do you think I have done that I need repentance for?
That's exactly the Church's message, worship/accept Jesus and obey us or be condemned to hell. I've heard this countless number of times in my life.
I assume here by "His Son" you mean God's Son. So, you're saying, God has a son who is Lord, that is the Hebrew word adonai used to refer to the true God. And this son is also Christ, meaning the "anointed one" or "chosen one,". Christ comes from the Greek word Christos, which is equivalent to the Hebrew Mashiach or "Messiah".
Did I get this right? are you are telling me just embrace it, "believe in Jesus"? Faith is more important than reason. Is that what you are telling me?
Not either-or but both-and. I learned that faith and reason never conflict and I like sharing that liberating discovery with others.
Why do you you and u/PraiseGod, assuming you are two different individuals, want to convert me? what do I need to know more about Christianity than I already know? I know about Christmas and Easter and celebrate both. That means the birth and death of Jesus, which is all that the Church teach about him anyway. Nothing really in between.
Perhaps you are talking about the 18+ lost years the Bible is silent about. That's nearly two decades of Jesus' life missing from history, are you going to tell me that doesn't matter? or are you going to share this secret story with me, if I decide to convert? is this what you mean by "sharing that liberating discovery"?
