As a strong atheist I share a burden of proof, which I try to meet. I know I don't meet it, and that i cannot disprove god, esp. given a lot brighter folks than me have tried and failed. But I find atheistic arguments too compelling and the theistic ones too desperately weak to sit on the fence. You see it's not what we can prove but what we are justified in believing. I claim there is no god on that basis and try to make my case. But yours is the positive claim and attracts a slightly higher burden and you have not met it, which is probably the reason that you cannot 'satisfy' me as to the existence of a god; in your case Jesus. In my original response I stated that you left no room whatsoever for you to be wrong...GC look at your response and see the irony of it. So stop being pathetic, man up and make a case for god (Jesus). If you are just going to whine going boohoo poor me I cannot convince the atheists and they are being mean to me, don't bother responding.
I do not whine, and as I said the evidence that I could give you would not be the proof you would accept, so what's up with you CS. I did not come on this forum to prove God exist to you or anyone else, that is what God does. I will defend what I know to be the truth whether you like it or not, just because you do not want to believe does not invalidate what I know. Hear this clearly I know without a doubt that the Father, Christ and the Holy Spirit do exist and are who they say they are, one God in three Persons. So I do not boohoo because atheist do not believe, I do however feel bad that you do not because I know positively what your eternal destination will be and it makes me sad. I have presented a loving savior as many others have and if you refuse to believe then you have made a decision for yourself and the consequences fall on you.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
