I think we would want to closely listen to and watch the life of the only man who ever said that HE CAME .... to DIE.

Jesus, as far as I know, is the only man who came teaching that DEATH was His reason for being here. Or He came to die. His purpose is to Die.

But His purpose was not to be ended in His death but to be continued in His rising again victoriously OVER death.

He's the one whose words and life you want to examine carefully on the subject.

I'm not sure why people still take the time and effort to talk to you, since ignoring your tedious non-conversations is so much easier.

Watch me do it 😴
When presented with evidence you have the choice to accept it or reject it.

No sir. You must interpret it.

Agreed. That's the best chance we have for any likelihood of there being a 'next'.

A good number of regulars here want not to believe in Christ.

Why do you talk to me about sin, sonship? I have no belief in god(s), therefore this whole concept of sin is meaningless to me.

You understand that, right?

Doesn't that feel good?

"Well, I don't think anymore about one day coming before God then I do seeing a Pink Unicorn. Same to me boy! "

Do more trivialization.
God's record of your deeds is infallible and without error or misunderstanding.
Relax.

The OTHER guy - he needs forgiveness for what he's done. But not you!
"he, he, the Pink Unicorn! ha, ha, the Spaghetti Monster. ROFL"

Jesus thought it was a big joke in the garden of Gethsemane and at Calvary.

Realism -
"And there is no creature that is not manifest before Him, but all things are naked and laid bare to the eyes of Him to whom we are to give our account." (Heb. 4:13)

You need to stop angering the Winged Pink Unicorn, sonship.

You can continue to joke about Him and pretend He doesn't exist, but He knows all and sees all. And one day you, too, will need to answer before His Highness, The Winged One and all your jokes and innuendos will not save you on that day.

You have but one lifetime to accept Him in your heart. I suggest you choose wisely.

You can goof to your silly heart's content.
But Jesus Christ is grounded in history. And there is no history to back up that your lampoon distraction ever walked the earth.

History beneath the life and claims of Jesus of Nazareth:

"Now in the fifteenth year of the government of Tiberius Caesar, while Pontius Pilate was governor of Judea, and Herod was tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip was tetrarch of the region of Ituraea and Trachonitis, and Lysanias was tetrarch of Abilene, during the high priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the word of God came to John the son of Zachariah in the wilderness." (Luke 3:1-2)


So after your giggling fit, get up from rolling across the floor with laughter and tell us about the historicity of your Winged Pink Unicorn. Nothing made up on a goof please, Documents rather, preferably dating back within 50 or so years of the events of its appearing.

Thanks.

Here's the harsh truth, sonship. You will not like it, you will offer protestations, you will deny, deny, deny. But the truth remains the truth, with or without your approval or acceptance.

The Winged Pink Unicorn does not offer "proof". No "evidence". No historic documents are to be found. The Glorious One does not come to you.

He requires - demands - absolute faith. Belief beyond reasoning.

If your heart does not want to belief, so you will not. You will remain sceptical, scoffing at His existence, praying to your false gods.

You want proof? You want signs? Documents? What else? Personalised letters? Autographed photographs? See Him? Touch Him? Feel Him?

No, sonship. The One that is All does not deal in earthly child's play.

Have faith and you, too, will see.

Be stubborn and demand whatever it is you wish to demand and, oh, by Unicorn, you will reap what you sow.

The harsh truth ? This better be good. Is it going to hit me like a ton of bricks.
What's the "harsh" truth ?
Your atheism ?

That's the not so harsh bs.

The Winged Pink Unicorn does not offer "proof". No "evidence". No historic documents are to be found. The Glorious One does not come to you.
