Is faith 100% commitment or can it be less than that and still be faith?
I know a christian who says they don't know for sure 100% but claims to not be an agnostic theist
Does the bible say to believe without doubt and if so what chapter, verse etc.. or does it tell it's readers it's O.K to say "I'm not 100% sure"?
Anyone care to comment?
Turning yet again to TGD and Dawkins' spectrum of probability on god's existence, it seems to me that believers simply have to put themselves in cat.1 strong theist. Unlike us, who assess the probability and I suspect overwhelmingly claim cat.6 de facto atheist, their faith demands no question as to it being 100% certain that god exists. Poor deluded fools! And because they are so afflicted, rational argument/debate is impossible, so I either ridicule or bait them!
Faith is believing something without evidence. One should have faith that GOD exists, that He Loves you, that He will save you from a spiritual death. One could have faith in lesser things: faith that I am the Risen Christ.
Manof GOD....RIDICULE OR BAIT, YOU CHOOSE!
A man is born to a virgin mother, lives, dies, comes alive again and then disappears into the clouds to become his Dad. How likely is that?
