Divash,
Since you have come here, an unbeliever, we would be remiss to not tell you what this board is about.
Jesus made some strong claims. Sister Allglory has posted one, already.
John 14:6 "Jesus saith unto him [Thomas, a disciple,] I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."
Back in chapter 3 of John, verse 3 it says,
"Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God."
Verses 16 - 18 say, "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. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through Him might be saved. He that believeth on Him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God."
These are very strong words, and there are many more. They basically mean that either Jesus Christ should be dismissed as a liar or that He is who He really claims to be! If He is the Son of the Almighty God, and He is, then we had better listen attentively to what He tells us in His Word! God sent His Son, in the flesh, to be the satisfaction for the sins of the world, but each one of us must make the decision to repent of those sins and believe on Jesus. You can read all about it in the Bible -- start with the books of John and Romans. God gave us that holy Book of books to explain His plan for the world so that we aren't left in the dark, searching and wondering! We will all be praying for you, that you will one day soon understand and come to know the Christ, the Redeemer sent from God.
Sincerely,
Brenda
