Creationists: is there anything you can be wrong about?

[ladyches]

So, you can only know Christian god if you believe it exists? Are you able to demonstrate this?

I'm asking you to prove you know god and I don't/can't per your claim.

Can you know me if you don't believe I exist?

Can you know me if you don't believe I exist?

Usually, the way it works is, someone believes someone exists, after they get to know them. In the flesh works well with convincing, but you can assume someone exists by communicating with them over the phone or the internet, but you wouldn't know for sure they were who they said they were without confirmation.

So, you didn't answer my questions before.

You stated God finds you vs the opposite. How does God decide to find certain people and why would a God who cares and loves about all his creation, not find everyone?

Yes.

Do I look like a brewry?

No, but seeing your Jewish carpenter boss was the ultimate vintner, you should know a thing about breweries.

God doesn't decide, it's where you are born and to whom that makes the decision, poor Muslims and others are doomed before they even get started, they are all destined for hell from the off.

Christians believe this garbage because of their EGO, they think that this universe was put here just to impress them.

So, if I'm standing in front of you, you don't know that I exist until after you get to know me?

I don't recall saying that God only calls certain people. John 3:16 says (c'mon, say it with me...) "For God so loved the world....that whosoever BELIEVES in him...." God has put the call out there. It's up to each of us to answer. And even that comes from God. Because it's by faith that we answer that call. And the Bible says that Jesus is the Author and Finisher of our faith. Hebrews 12:2

 

[ladyches]

Yes.

Uhhhh, ok. Explain that one.

 

[AV1611VET]

Uhhhh, ok. Explain that one.

[off topic] Is it just me, or do your eyes look like Lois Nettleton's? [/off topic]

Haha! I had to look her up. But wait! Are they my eyes? Do I exist? Can anyone know that?!

 

[HitchSlap]

My beliefs regarding your existence don't trump the fact we're communicating via the webz, i.e. "getting to know" each other.

This is what you said: "He calls us, we do not find him". How does he decide who to call? Does he call everyone? How did he call you and how did you know it was him?

"God. One cannot know God on natural terms. Even the desire to know him comes from him. He calls us. We don't find him. And he gives us the faith to believe in him, for without it, there is no pleasing him."

To answer your question. If you are standing in front of me, I would know a person was standing in front of me, but I wouldn't know it was YOU, until I confirmed who you were. From that point on, if you stood in front of me again, I would know it was YOU.
