What's really hilarious (coming from a born-again Christian-but-once an-unbeliever standpoint), is that the 'good news' of the Gospel... never really appears to be good news at all to unbelievers (and even lukewarm Christians).
Especially, if you don't believe in an afterlife and when one simply quotes to another the Word of God.
Words like evil, sin, eternal hellfire, and wickedness and following the laws of God.. stir up a strong discomfort and even offensive feelings in the bellies of (lukewarm) believers and unbelievers alike.
To them, the Word of God may seem like a bunch of hogwash created by man to control the behaviors of other people and to exploit them.
It seems to completely blind the eyes of non-believers and lukewarmers, to believe that God created the world to torture people because He KNEW they could not be perfect like Him anyway...
Though the good news.. is that God said that if you only call on the name of Jesus and repent (be sincerely apologetic and turn away from lawless ways) God is faithful and just to forgive you and cleanse you of all unrighteousness. 1 John 1:9
Moreover, by your enduring faith in Christ Jesus, you are promised eternal life in paradise on Earth for... eternity.
What is your stance on the whole Gospel of Jesus Christ (believer or unbeliever).. and DOING what the Laws in the Bible say?
