Caleb, I'm waiting for you to ask what my questions are.

I'll assume you already believe that there must be a Creator so I'll bypass most of that. The Bible is unique for the fact that there are no two verses that contradict one another in the same Testament. Also, Jesus is the ONLY prophet who ever stated that He was the Son of God. The reasons to believe in God are un-countable.

Another reason that I like is when a man dies and rises from the dead all on his own, I would probably believe what he has to say.

Lutherans(especially my synod, the LCMS) are different from other Christian groups because...
1. We are not against alcohol...After all Jesus HIMSELF drank wine.
2. We do believe in ONE baptism which generally occurs during infancy, even though adults are baptized frequently too... That is because of more Scriputural reasons.
3. We stick strictly to the Scriptures and take them as 100% truth and the Word of God. We add nothing to it and take nothing away. We don't take tiny bits of Scripture to make it say something completely to the contrary.

Yeah, totally, Neutrino believes there's a creator, , I'd like to see that one day.

Anyway.
Bold - But then in both Testaments, lots of verses contridict each other, right? And I'm sure in Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, sometimes they tell different stories for the one thing, and so that also classes as contridictions. So how can you just say, "It doesn't contridict, because it's the 'Word of God', and so it can't contridict"?

The books of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John do describe many of the same events. However they do not contradict one another, they state the same things, one adding more detail than the next. The Old and New Testament do have a couple verses that differ, but this is simply because the Old was before the Messiah and the New was during and a little after the time of Jesus. The Old Testament said how the world would change after the coming of the Messiah and Jesus fulfilled all of the prophecies and therefore changed the way we live on Earth.

WOW, my biological mother and my caregiving father just got me born in a Shack of animals. Wooo.

Have you fulfilled the prophecies of the Old Testament? I think not.
You might not want to tell your parents that story. :wink:

Caleb, please tell me that it's not possible for any Human cannot survive 40 days in the desert with no water or food. Jesus was a human. How do you know that he went to the Desert anyway? He could of just gone somewhere else and when he came back, just said he spent 40 days and 40 nights in the desert being tempted by the devil.

Jesus was different because He, as stated before, fulfilled the prophecies of the Messiah from the Old Testament. Also, I believe Jesus did everything the Bible says he did because the Bible states that it is the Word of God and is flawless.

Every denomination claims this, however the LCMS(Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod) stays the closest to Scripture of any other denomination on the continent.

Bold - Then why doesn't Judaism believe that Jesus is the 'Son of God'? If he did do everything the Old Testament said he would do (Which was also written by Israelites, who are Jews), then why don't they believe it?

Underline - Oh, you mean, murder, pilage, strangle other religions into the dust, and kill other cultures to make it the Christian way of life? Yup, he sure did change the way the Earth was, but frankly, was it a better way?

Italics - Continent? What about the whole world?

Eh, okay I'll ask questions. Though, if people don't like the debate in here, then we can continue in PM.

Why was Moses, Ezekiel (SP), and some other dude (Was it Abraham?), allowed in Heaven, who were all from the Old Testament, the only 3 'mortals' allowed into Heaven? Why wasn't any of the Diciples (Namely, Peter, Matthew, Mark, Luke, or John) allowed in? Sure, they didn't almost kill their Son, or go to Cities saying they would be destroyed, or Free 'slaves' from 'evil' Ancient Egyptians to send them to the 'land of milk and honey', which they didn't even find after 40 years. Instead, they taught people about Jesus, they opened Churches to believe in Christianity.

Don't just say 'ask God, I dono', I'd like you to answer with a reason of why they, and many others, weren't allowed in Heaven, though those other 3 were.

I've been saying that all along. If god were truely benevolent then he (interesting that god is always portrayed as male, isn't it... ) would have gotten rid of this entire planet with all it's suffering and woe and just elevated everyone to heaven, where we could be hapy for all eternity.

Answer: God is a malicious bastard.

Well I like the way an old pastor of mine in the Ozarks of Missouri described the reason God created Earth.

Being in Missouri, near Branson, he started out talking about he had gone to a show to see some big celebrity man. He talked about how everybody was so anxious to see him perform and were getting tired of sitting through the boring opening act. He described life on Earth as the "opnening act", only a preview of the great show that was soon to come.

Thats only an answer as to why, if in fact he did create Earth, not an aswer to why if you choose not to believe your sentanced to eternal damnation, which hardly seems like the actions of a supreme benevolent being or anyone with a sense of reason for that matter.
