why do established christian doctrines preach that you cannot be perfect when jesus said to be as perfect as god himself?

 

if humans are incapable of being perfect why pretend to worship the son of god while defying his words?

I highly suggest you close this before the mods get tired of you and give you warning points, if they haven't already. Your "discussion" is a thinly-veiled attempt at trolling and baiting, and you refuse to acknowledge any rebuttals to your points, instead repeating your words exactly, give or take a few accusations. Please recognize that we have quickly tired of the bait, and try a little harder as we're not total idiots. As for the mods moving the other thread, its stlll view able, they're just putting it in a sub-forum that more accurately recognizes its seriousness.

nobody has answered the question, they have said "christians believe it to be impossible"

 

ok

 

so why call yourself a follower of christ? how can you claim to follow the teachings of a man when you blatantly say that the things he said to do are impossible?

 

nobody will answer this and you people keep getting upset and calling me a troll when all im doing is trying to discuss a religious topic on a religion forum

They did answer. You just called them blasphemers. Either way, you can continue that discussion in that topic. It doesn't require 2.

the guy said that jesus did not say to be perfect, which is a lie and blasphemy. this is why i called him a blasphemer

 

 

again, avoiding the question

 

nobody has answered the question of "why call yourself a follower of christ when you dont believe you can possibly do what christ commanded?"

 

someone out there must have some sort of reasoning. it seems logically retarded to me, but it is so prevalent in christianity to defy christ and i want to hear the reasonings

if christians believe the creator god of the bible is all powerful then they believe that he created the laws of physics and time and that he is able to break or bend them in any way imaginable

 

trying to fit the god of the bible into our understanding of modern science discounts the supposed power of god

Yes ... why follow someone who sets such high standards !?

 

Couldn't you all be like , "Come on ... Jesus ... dude, really ... you got too much confidence in us. Seriously, mate, just a heads up: if you keep putting the bar so high, we won't believe you're the son of God anymore! "

im not sure what youre trying to say by that

 

nobody can change the commands of jesus christ

 

one either believes the words of christ are to be followed or they believe the words of christ are not to be followed

if one claims that it is impossible to follow the words of jesus, are they not the latter?

Yes, but it's quite irrelevant.

 

Are you not aware that christianity is not defined as those who follow the litteral word of Jesus?

if youre saying the definition of christianity is one who believes jesus was the messiah then by that definition someone who worships satan and sacrifises virgins to carnal desire every full moon is a christian

 

by that definition, satan himself is a christian

 

and i realize that christians do not follow christ,this is why i am addressing this issue

 

you wont find a christian who says we should not obey the words of christ, no, not until you actually present them with the words of christ, then they cower and say, ~o well he didnt really mean it

A religion based on the life and teachings of Jesus. Most forms of Christianity hold that Jesus is the son of God and is the second person of the Trinity, through whom humans may attain redemption from sin.

so christianity is a farce and satan is a christian?

 

 

k

 

by your logic absolutely anyone can call themselves christians while sinning their asses off in the most debaucherous ways

 

no, i think your intrepetation of the definition of christianity is wrong

 

christians are followers of christ by definition

those who claim to be christian, in reality, do not follow christ

 

why would jesus say "you are to be perfect as your heavenly father is perfect" yet not actually mean it? this is not a parable

LOL ... in conclusion

  • Acoording to Lou Zephyr's interpretation of the definition of chrisitianity

    the 2.4 billion people who claim to be christian, are in fact not christians.

  • Acoording to my interpretation of the definition of chrisitianity,

    they are (supposing aren't lying of course)

And yet, Lou considers his interpretation to be more accurate.

I mean, you can have an opinion that people aren't following christianity the way you think it should be followed, but why you'd think that's anything to do with you is beyond me. If you're right they'll go to hell and if you're not they'll be fine, either way it's between them and god so why do you care?

You want an answer? Jesus forgives us of our sins. We sin by not being perfect. Anything else you need to know? I believe this is enough of an answer

And he said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned"

-- Mark 16

They are plenty of contradictions and you'll be going nuts thinking about it, another one would be how many people worship idols (Eg, many saints, Virgin Mary, Jesus...etc) even when God Specifically stated that idol worship is not allowed and that only he is worth of being worshipped.

True, though some will justify is by pointing out that for them praying to someone is not the same as woreshipping them,

not all christians pray to Mary to begin with.

 

Plus, Lou is arguing that christians should follow the literal word of Jesus - that the other pieces are irrelevant.

and if you believe, you will keep his word

if you do not believe then you will keep sinning

 

you do not have endless get out of jail free cards

baptism is to symbolize your turning away, your repentance of sin

 

if you sin, you were not ready for baptism as you did not believe in the word of god

 

those who continue sinning are condemned because of their disbelief, read the rest of the book

 

 

yes derpeh, idolotry is another thing self proclaimed christians refuse to let go of

 

meanwhile jesus doesnt even know them
