Evangelical nut jobs say God will not be mocked.?
But people mock him all the time. Even I am guilty of it. The problem Evangelicals have is they are so blinded by belief they fail to see what is real.
I went to a christian school for 10 years was a good christian for most of my life. The number one reason I left the church was because I could not stand the Evangelical message toward their neighbors and friends. It seems they have it all backwards for them its about money greed and selfish salvation. They do things to promote their religion not the message it’s supposed to teach. They take fantasy and try and turn it into science and it is sad to think these people will never understand how wonderful the world is because they are so blinded by a book telling them that none of this world matters because it will end someday and unless they are on the side of god they will be punished.
The real question I have is, does anyone else feel bad for the people?
Matthew 12:36 (New International Version)
36But I tell you that men will have to give account on the day of judgment for every careless word they have spoken
Yes, I do feel bad for these people, particularly their offspring who are introduced to this madness at such a young age.
No, I don’t feel bad for Evangelical Christians. Not even a little. They’re arrogant, obnoxious and hypocritical in the extreme. They disgust me.
I don’t feel bad for them. They have the same resources for information available to them as I do. If they choose to be willfully ignorant, then that’s their call.
God is not mocked what so ever a man sows he reaps. You can mock me and you may mock the followers of Christ. We are human and we do err. But mocking God is a great offense. You are on dangerous grounds. God is also merciful , long-suffering and loving. You should be glad.
Yes there are a lot of self serving ministers of the gospel. Making Gods house a house of merchandise. Woe unto them says the Bible. They will get their reward. I feel bad for the gullible people that do not read the word of God for themselves and they follow after man instead of God. I feel bad, instead of people standing for God they stand for everything else. God is not the one you should be upset with, you should be upset with so called Christians. Those that say one thing and do another. The Word warns that in the last days many shall fall, following after seducing spirits and doctrines of devils. You wonder what has become of the world ? We are in the last days and Satan is trying to devour as many as he can and the people have been warned and they still remain in there sin. They think they have plenty of time, but time is at hand ! Repent or you shall like wise perish !
they’re brainwashed
That’s all irrelevant.
The question is – are you a Christian? – a person who believes that Jesus Christ is the one and only true living God, that he resurrected from the dead, and is therefore alive today (Romans 10:9) and was born of a virgin (indicating his sinless nature). Such a person has the indwelling Holy Spirit [Romans 8:9;].
I feel bad for people who waste vast amounts of time on things they don’t believe in.
It’s easy to mock “God”! All theist nonsense “scripture” suggests that he is a miserable, misogynistic, malicious old git!
Talking snakes and donkeys, giant floating zoos, walking on water – how on earth can any sane, rational person place any credence on this old bollocks?
Someone is forgetting to take their medication on a regular basis!
You have two separate issues in your question. The first concerning God being mocked. It is the bible that says it, not evangelical nut jobs. If you continue reading, the next verse says “for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.” Here is a verse which explains why God allows Himself to be mocked.
2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.
The other issue is that of the perversion of Christianity by some. We have been warned that such things would happen. The fact that some pervert Christianity does not give the rest of us an excuse to not search for the truth.
2 Peter 2:1-3
But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them—bringing swift destruction on themselves. Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth into disrepute. In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.
I feel very sad for many of them.
