The Reasons why "Just Following Jesus" Doesn't work

Suffice it to say that I am unconvinced and unimpressed by your extensive Bible quoting. You've still left me without any reason to believe anything the Bible says.


That little psalm of yours, by the way, has nothing to do with what I'm talking about. Gaud repeatedly commands the Israelites to destroy, pillage, plunder, and rape pretty much any non-jews they come across there for a good while. Except the people of the valley, of course--those iron chariots are Gaud's only weakness.


On that note, if your Gaud is all-powerful, then why does the Bible say that he couldn't drive the people out of the valley because of their iron chariots? Surely, if he were all-powerful, iron chariots wouldn't stand in his way, would they?


Also, sure plenty of people insist the Bible is the truth, but those people can't agree on what it actually says, or what it actually means, or how much of it is literal, or how much of it is metaphorical.


Honestly, I'm getting sick of picking through this. It's huge, and the text size makes it practically unreadable.

I wanted to give you a full response to your answers so that is why the post was so long. I apologize for the font. I knew better when I posted it but didn't take the time to change it.

Although, I don't know what that has to do with the content of the post. Also I can't say that I am trying to impress you. If that were so I would not be talking about Jesus. I also know I personally can't convince you of anything that I say about God. You don't want to believe in Him so there I nothing I could do to make you change your mind. Your problem isn't that you don't have enough information it that you need a new heart. You know, since you studied it,  that the word of God says you are dead in your sins and need to be brought from death to life. You are blind to the things of God and it is only through the Holy Spirit that you will understand the value of Christ's death on the Cross and your need to repent. 

If the psalm was not the verses your were talking about would you please cite the verse you were speaking of and also do the same with the chariots so that we can be on the same page. That way you won't be reading things that don't pertain to what you spoke about and I won't be guessing about what you are talking about.

Lastly for now, just because people can't agree doesn't mean the Bible isn't true. I am in a study now where I am with christians for different denominations who view thing or interpret things differently than I do. It doesn't stop them from being christian because we agree on the essentials. It can't stop the truth from being true. It doesn't make divisions with me and them because we don't major on the minor element of the Bible.
