If Jesus Christ materialized in front of you and proved to you that he is the son of God...

[Carl in Michigan]

of course, I would follow him he is my father, he is perfect, beautiful, poet, philosopher, gentle & humble to name a few my citizenship is with Jesus Christ and I am his!

I'm betting you have an image of Christ in your mind that doesn't match who He really is.

 

[DELETED ACCOUNT]

Death Angel let me make myself clear, Jesus told me who he is through scripture "Gentle & Humble!" Jesus is perfect and so much more! (I look at him as a poet & philosopher) he is beautiful! if you don't like my comment then move along but what I'm not going to do is argue with irrelevant human beings

 

[zaangalewa]

...would you follow him?

I would ask: "Whoow - what a theatre to visit me, Jesus. Why did you not just simple open the door?"

 

[dblack]

...would you follow him?

No, I'd punch him.

Worship me or burn forever. Yep sounds humble to me. Nothing cruel and heartless about a little fire and brimstone

It is not cruel and heartless. It IS God's justice that sin be punished. He offers the ONLY way out and the only true hope for mankind. And that's at the Cross. He is not willing that any should perish, but everyone come to repentance.

Yep. It's his call. He doesn't have to make everyone that doesn't worship him burn forever. He does it because he wants to. He just thinks it's a fun thing to do. He also didn't have to make animals feel pain and fear the same way we do, and then tell us to kill them for food, so I guess he enjoys torturing animals just like Dahmer did as a kid.

God is incapable of evil. But man is. Man is basically wicked and there is no righteousness in us. and you are incapable of understanding God's Holy and Just nature. His very nature demands sin be punished. but that is tempered by His love and mercy for us that He sent His only Son to die for us.

God is incapable of evil? Your remark shows 2 things
1. He is not omnipotent.
2. You consider killing everything, men, women, children, even the animals, and salting the earth so nothing ever grows there again, to be holy and just. I wonder what sins those babies were guilty of.

Thus, the punching.

Happens at every Mass. Jesus materializing that is.

I wouldn’t put too much stock in Jewish embellishments.

But if you want to debate that God cannot be good and all powerful in the bull ring, I’m your man.

I never said what you like to portray as God couldn't be good. I just said it often isn't. As far as all powerful, is he able to make a rock so big and heavy till he couldn't lift it?

 

[Votto]

What would Jesus want want from me? I'm not built for blind obedience.

Then how about just going blind?

I mean, how much trouble can you cause blind?

God’s power is not measured by sheer force. God’s power is measured by accomplishing objectives.

I'm very sorry for you. The only thing that seems to satisfy you is if GOD worshiped YOU! If you end up in hell it is only because that is where you wish to go.

Exactly! God never forces anyone to worship Him. This is entirely out of our free will and love for Christ.

 

[Dadoalex]

...would you follow him?

Where?
Why?

I got 2000 years of Christianity saying it's a bad idea.

 

[Dadoalex]

You don't want to share his word with others? Why not?

I share "his word" every day.
BUT
The words I share come from the Buddha
Who precedes Jebers by 500 years.

 

[Dadoalex]

If you are a follower of Jesus it's not really "personal" though. It's a command: "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, even to the end of the age."--Matthew 28:19-20

As for thumpers: every single ONE is two-faced. Not a single one of us can proclaim Jesus Christ and "practice what we preach".

That's why He had to die.

HA!
What you just posted there amounts to the Islamic Jihad.
