The Problem with Christians

[AJW333]

The scripture regularly predicts events that come true. As I look at the world today, it is exactly as the Bible predicted. I think the scripture has credibility because it reliably tells us the future. No other religion even comes close when it comes to accurate prophecy.

And so does Nostradamus if you bend and shape the letters sufficiently. I've yet to see any supposed prophecy not being open to at least a dozen interpretations.

How about this prophecy, it seems fairly straight forward,

"Also I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus and for the word of God, and those who had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands." Revelation 20:4

To the casual (and dare I say the cynical) observer, this doesn't say much. However let's unpack it a bit. You have an obscure Jewish fisherman 2000 years ago make a prediction that in the last days, just prior to the return of Christ, (modern era) you will have Christians being beheaded for no other reason than being Christian. Until very recently, this wasn't happening, now it is. ISIS is beheading hundreds, if not thousands of Christians as we speak. Was John correct with his prophecy? Absolutely.

We've had an esteemed member calling himself the professor, who wasted his life away by interpreting the end of days coming last september. Going by bible verses, he bent to suit his particular brand of makebelief.

He should have paid more attention to the verse that says "no one knows the hour nor the day...."

Says the idiot who thinks a passage in the bible about the c 500 bce formation of the kingdom of Judah actually refers to the 1948 creation of the Racist Theocracy of Israel.

I think you missed something here. The prophecy states that Israel will be regathered a second time. At the time of Isaiah around 700BC, when the prophecy was made, there had not yet been a dispersion of Israel and therefore no regathering.  Isaiah was predicting the dispersion in 586 BC. This was followed by the first regathering 70 years later. So when was the second dispersion? That was under the Roman Empire in Jesus' day and the second regathering was 1948.

Oh and on your "degree" post the certificate or it doesn't exist, because you don't understand scientific concepts you could teach to a toddler.

Put up $10k and I'll be glad to take your money.

I'm quite familiar with the periodic table. When I use the world 'dirt" it goes without saying that it would include any and all possible mineral/element combinations.

You still haven't specified your "science degree", you lying fuctard asshole!

If you call me a liar then I will call you on it. That's why there is a wager of $10k on it. Put your money on the table and I'll be more than happy to comply. Till then, enough of the false accusations.
