Atheism rules

The following is either going to be laughable or boring to almost everybody who reads this. Judging by the amount of comments from past posts, I seriously doubt this will be read by either. Since I've not told anybody about these blogs, even my kids will not see it unless they accidentally find it.



I just read some chunks of a popular Atheist site. If you're not an atheist, don't go there. It will only confuse you, make you weak in your belief, or convert you to believe that your eternal destination is worm poo or star dust at best. I'm a public school educated fool so I speak simply. Most people hear simply. That's OK. So here goes another tackle about something 4 billion people believe I should leave alone and stay in my little uncommitted, quiet hole, like the common people in the book "1984"(Don't read it either if you are a conspiracist). Should I give up my beliefs because someone tells me I'm wrong? They say I need to be correct in my beliefs or at least promote them and their beliefs somewhere beyond mere tolerance. I am not going to get into all the 'arguments' for or against any belief except I will gently talk about my own. Don't believe me because I say anything. Remember, I'm public-school educated. Find your own proofs but make sure they make sense.



Here goes:

Jesus is not another 'god'. He is God. God is Him. The first commandment is still in effect. God has exhibited himself to us in many ways. Of course this is biblical information but the Bible says He has been with us directly as in the Garden of Eden, the word and action of Judges, Prophets, Pastors, Missionaries, talking donkeys, burning bushes, pillars of smoke and fire, and other forms. Those forms helped intelligent people of those times to be convinced of him and his desires. Jesus was a liar, criminal, or delusional, which in turn makes us delusional, stupid, or cultic. The other option that I believe is God said through time that He was sending the Messiah. Jesus fulfilled all of the Messianic predictions from through out the Bible up to the time of his Ascension. Judaism is the "Branch of The Vine". Christianity is a "grafted branch of The Vine". Jesus is The Vine. God the Father is the Vineyard Keeper. Our job is to bear fruit for the Glory of the Vineyard Keeper. How do we do that? By gently, and with prayer and education, speak about our salvation and work of our Lord openly with family, friends, neighbors, coworkers and strangers. Why is salvation necessary and what is it? I'll put that answer in another blog so that info is at the beginning and on top of the page so, hopefully, it catches someones eye and they will read it and respond.
