90%? That's way too optimistic!

On topic: Let's twist this question a bit. What if Jehovah (yes the real one; the one true god) comes down to earth and says that the jesus story has been taken a bit too literally than what he intended.

What would be you Christian response to this?

And yes, to prove he is the real Jehovah, he does some miracle shit as in the OT - like bashing babies on the rocks, etc.

So for argument sake, Imagine if Jesus (yes the real one) who frequently reveals himself to born-again Christians, tells you that you were doing it all wrong as in the bible is not his word.

Would you:
1) disregard this revelation as an hallucination?
2) ditch the bible?
3) consider this as Satan trying to deceive you by dressing up as Jesus?

You know what I find really crazy about this and other threads that start out, let's imagine, let's pretend, what if, atheist speak of Christians living a fairy tale and atheist are the ones who want to start up fairy tales. It's no wonder you all can't understand the Bible, you only want to play games with it.
When this happen it would certainly be (3). As Drich has stated this would be the anti-christ. In the scriptures we are guaranteed this can't happen to the true believers. Matthew 24:24 For false christs and false prophets will arise and perform great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible even the elect. Red letters to show Jesus said this.
Funny how you would bring up a Biblical truth, was this a test of our knowledge of scripture, did we pass or do you have something else to spring on us.
Isn't it interesting you would choose to bring this up so near the end of time, or did you choose, could it be that God used 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.

So it really is jesus as stated but it's not because you can't answer a simple question.

Have you considered a job in politics?

If your beliefs made an ounce of sense, very simple questions like this shouldn't take a text wall of evasion to deal with.

Exactly!

You know, if I was a Christian, my answer would have simple. Jesus! I don't know why it's proving difficult for the resident Christians to answer this question. Undecided

Right. Actual God incarnate, or a book.

Thing is, if the "real" God did appear to them, they'd have absolutely no way to verify that it was who they thought it was. How many magic tricks is enough proof?

For you two stupid people I chose three and gave an answer, for you personally I already said you do not know what you are talking about, you state things from ignorance, both cases are in your statement above. You two should go and hide in shame for you ignorance, you attack Christianity and haven't the slightest idea of what it it.

. . . says the guy who never misses an opportunity to display his astonishing ignorance of biological theory and who has the gall to refer to Nietzsche in his signature in spite of the virtual certainty that he's never read a single book by the man. What a sad little putz you are!
