Not everyone is a preacher or a teacher. But, every believer, I believe, is to witness in his own "rite". Jesus instructed his believers to do so in the Beatitudes. (Matt. 5)

You're disbelief doesn't phase me bruh...It's nothing new...in fact, it's a repeat of what believers have combated since Jesus left earth.

Also, I'm not concerned with YOUR religion. I'm talking about Christianity. By claiming you believe some things and not others, you've reduced the bible to bird feed. How dare you. Like I said, don't play with fire bro. There are things in scripture you clearly fail to understand. One being that refusal to believe the truth of God's word makes you a fool, especially if you claim to be a wise man.

Question: Who is Jesus to you?


Thats the thing... What im saying IS THERE if you are willing to read it and broaden your horizons.

The Beatitudes (assuming you are talking about this section, I couldnt find anything else relating to what we are talking about, but correct me if I am mistaken I only skimmed):
In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your father in heaven.

I prefer not to listen to a thoughtless man, who knows the bibles words, but is not a doer of them. They are the preachers I'm talking about. And many christians are like this, which is why they shouldnt preach.

Followers of Jesus should do just that. You can tell a good Christian by the way he acts and the way he is, they just give off this instrusive positive aura that effects everybody around them. It's obvious those people are christians, and people in their presence know this or at least know there is something different about that person.

By believing everything you are told, and by trusting the work of sinner's, you are reducing the spiritual side of life to nothing. There are things in existence you clearly don't understand... Things that can only be understood by experience.

I know I'm a fool, I don't consider myself wise. I am still learning. Like I said before, all I know is I'm on the right path. There is a lot more for me to discover.

Jesus is the way, the truth and the light. He can lead us to salvation.

Question: Why have you become defensive and dismissive?
