Hello all, I'm assuming this is where you Introduce yourself.

I really just wanted to ask a few questions in the forumn out of curiosity as part of a dialectical essay analysis for an integrated Study Topic, I hope that's ok.That's not the only reason I joined Though.

Didn't see any other part of the forumn that seemed appropriate to post This.

I Hope also to receive non-argumentative respones's as my intent is not to argue.

Please anyone who would'nt mind answering the question's feel free.

Question's:

1. How do modern "Christian's" assume that non-Christian's view that there is a point to Christianity, when professing Christian's do the exact same thing's that they suggest non-christian's should not do?

2. Why do modern Christian's argue Bible verses but rarely Spread The Gospel?

3. Why do modern Christian's engage in arguments over The Bible, if they are collectively Christian and how do they assume they appear to non-christian's as a result of disagreement between denomination's?

4. Why do modern Christian's that are observed spreading the gospel generally talk about hell, when The Gospel is reffered to as The Gospel of Peace?

and if people wouldn't mind I was hoping to receive as many different responses as possible.

We are told to contend for the faith. We also learn from others by discussing scripture.

Question's:

Welcome.

1. How do modern "Christian's" assume that non-Christian's view that there is a point to Christianity, when professing Christian's do the exact same thing's that they suggest non-christian's should not do?

Christians don't assume anything. We share our faith to anyone who will hear it. Just because you don't think there is a point to Christianity (your opinion) doesn't mean there isn't a point to Christianity. There is. Otherwise, millions of people wouldn't profess Christianity.

2. Why do modern Christian's argue Bible verses but rarely Spread The Gospel?

Spreading the word is spreading the Gospel. The Gospel is the word of God. The central message is Jesus. The whole Bible points to Jesus, our Lord and Savior. When we share scripture, we share Jesus.

3. Why do modern Christian's engage in arguments over The Bible, if they are collectively Christian and how do they assume they appear to non-christian's as a result of disagreement between denomination's?

There are many different Christian denominations, many different beliefs and doctrines, but there is only one Bible, one truth. How does this happen? Argument and division over what should be a singular truth? Emphasis on certain scripture over other scripture. Scripture taken out of context. The bending of scripture into something it doesn't say. The desire to be separate and unique.

Christianity isn't the only group of people who come together over heart-felt beliefs, but have disagreement. Look at politics.

4. Why do modern Christian's that are observed spreading the gospel generally talk about hell, when The Gospel is reffered (sic) to as The Gospel of Peace?

This would fall under the category of misinterpretation of scripture. Hell is the grave, not a place of fiery torment. The lake of fire is the place of fiery torment. "Hell" can be used by some Christians as a scare tactic. Most Christians have a sincere heart-felt desire to save you from sin and God's wrath. You can't speak of the Gospel and leave out things like repentance and the consequences of sin. I agree. Using "hell" as a scare tactic is the wrong way to go about it.
