You are the Way,i just read xiaxue's latest post and the comments following thereafter. i wanted to comment but, well. apparently preaching comments are no longer allowed (if you think about it, why should she ban it? it does her and other free thinkers no good but it does them NO HARM either. that goes to show one thing - deep down inside, she knows that she's wrong. but instead of accepting it, she denied it.), and thus, i respect her decision. and decided to preach here instead. hahas.
when i first read the part about blind faith, a verse jumped into my mind, even though i've to admit, i aint no bible reader. anyway, here's the verse from hebrews 11:1 - "now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see." yep. that pretty much sums the blind faith thingy. uh-huh.
and when us Christians try to convert you, it's actually 'cause we care for you. really. if not, why, despite all those criticisim, hatred, we still try? we can just give up, stand at one said and watch as you walk the way to Hell. its as simple as that. converting people takes time. it takes effort. it takes a whole damn lot of skin, damnit!
and its barnabAs. looks like she didnt know alot about Christianity despite what she said huh?
after the tsunamis, there were questions like, "why on earth did God make that to happen?" and stuff like that. but, who are we to question God? He always have a purpose for everything He does man. its sounds, oh heck, it is cliche, but, -shurgs, that's the truth. or maybe its a sign as pointed out in luke 21. a sign of the end of the ages.
and please, Catholicsm is not the same as Christianity. if you really go read up about Catholicsm, you will find that it is totally different from Christianity. for one thing, they think that Mary can like, help us curry favour with God? go read up more if you're interested.
and the da vinci code is a plain piece of shit. no, wait. it is not just a plain piece of shit. it is a f***ing piece of bullshit. the same can be said for angels and demons. as well as dan brown. HA.
i realised something sometime last week. if _____ (blank because i dont know what to call these people. buddhists or taoists? or buddhataoists?) believe in recarnation, then, gee, why on earth do they burn all those stuff like hell notes, cars for? do you need to pay in order to be recarnated? do you need to drive to a centre to get recarnated? and also, why hell notes? why not heaven notes? you mean we arent able to go heaven at all? and really, i thought Hell is a place for suffering? then how come they have things like houses and stuff? -scratches head. contradicting, huh?
to all people who believe in recarnation: "okay. so why dont you try to be a Christian in this life? in that way, if you're wrong, you can still get a second chance, right? there's no harm man." my friend once retorted with, "what if you dont remember?" well, i didnt rebutt him/her/it then. but, really, even if you were a _____, you also wont remember right?
to all people who doesnt believe in God: "okay. be a Christian. if there's no God, when you die, you are safe and sound. but if there's a God, AH-HA! that's it, you are dead dead."
i aint trying to convert anyone here in case you are wondering. the above two paragraphs were told to me by my brother. so, -shrugs.
another thing that my brother told me? charles darwin asked for his Bible at his deathbed. HA. so the guy who had practically spent his whole life arguing about the simple thing of Creation ends up turning to it and his deathbed. lol. sorry that i might sound sadist, but really, LOL.
dinosaurs. ice age. some people ask us Christians to explain all these. well, they EXIST. oh really? uh-huh. but the Bible didnt say they exist. but, honey, didnt you get it? the Bible didnt say they didnt exist as well.
thats told to me by my brother again btw.
and another thing i cant stand? people who dont believe in God going, "oh my God." or "oh God." or "God." or "my God" or... you get it. RIGHT. since you dont believe in God, then why use His name? ironical isnt it? and buddhists shouldnt use that either. they should use, "oh my buddha." and muslims, "oh my allah." it would be more apporiate isnt it?
sorry if i might sound very preachy (or out of point/rude if you prefer) here, but, -shrugs. that's the way i am. i might not act very Christiany everyday (or at all if you prefer) but if someone dares to mock God or Christianity or Christians, i will NOT take it lying down. i will stand up for my fellow Christians. i will stand up for MY God. so think twice before you tag anything against this entry. thank you.
