To all those who are debating with me on this, I feel like this is going round and round in circles and not actually getting anywhere, and am most aware that you will point the finger at me and tell me i don't know what i am talking about. The most important thing is I know I am right, I have tried my best to explain the truth to you all but I can see tht you are rejecting it. I have said it before but there is coming a day when you will look back and blame yourself for all these opportunities that you have missed.
There is only one true God and it is of him that we read of in the Bible. I gave evidence for the Bible validity but it has been stubbornly rejected. To be honest when presented with a world that came from nothing, no hope beyond the grave, no saviour, no hope of heaven OR a world that was made by an awesome Creator, a Christ who died on Calvary and offers to us salvation and eternal life, I choose Christ. I choose the Bible and I will never turn my back on my Redeemer or leave off from the faith. I have decided to put my hand to the plough and by Gods grace I will never turn back. I will continue to share with others my Jesus and tell the lost of their need of Christ for without him we are all damned to a lake of everlasting fire, I don't know about you but I don't want to be there, my destination is heaven, what about you? All you have to do is simply put your faith in Christ and believe and ask him to come into your heart and he will!
John 3v16 KJV "For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life"
The issue isn't what you believe, but the basis for your belief. You haven't presented anything that makes a better case for your particular choice of religions, than for the thousands of others. There are 20 well known creation stories and hundreds if not thousands of others. Why is your choice THE only answer?
The problem is that you have failed as a debater to make your case. It might be instructive for you to take note that many of the debaters here, Christians, former Christians, and others, who have studied Christianity longer than you have been alive. Many here have attained 4 year college degrees + post graduate degrees in in various religious studies. This is not to say that merely age or experience or educational attainments settle the issue. It is just something to keep in mind, and help your understand that absolutely nothing you've argued has not been argued here before, and more persuasively.
Quoting a few Bible verses, and the wrong ones at that, is not going to come close to accomplishing your purpose. In fact, you might consider whether your efforts have actually confirmed the belief of many here, that the arguments for Christianity are very weak.
