Nikki,
You cited that The Rider said to him, "Only a fool in his heart says that there is no God."
You say that you are offeneded by that phrase, but the post says that the Rider said that to someone else, not to you and that this is a recounting of my experiance that I am telling as invited to do so by Dr. Bob. Are you saying that you ar not offended by the post that says [Jesus became our salvation to those that obey Him]? If so, could you clarify why you would be offended by the one and not the other? The post that says [Jesus became our salvation to those that obey Him] has the imperitve implication, as I see it, that people that believe in their heart that there is no God are not going to be saved, for just believing is not enough for salvation, for it is to {obey Jesus} that is connected with salvation in that post. And the "our", to me, inplies that the obeying is to be done by all to get salvation. Are you saying that the "our" does not include you, ? If so, then could you clarify who are the people that are implied to be in the (our salvation}? Could you clarify why you think that this post in question does not imply that others should also believe in Jesus to have salvation? My post never says that there is any connection to others at all, for the post is[The rider said to {Me}
that [I am {your} God and you shall have no other Gods before me.] The other post says [Jesus became OUR salvation to those that OBEY Him] and that appears to me to imply the implication that I am being accused of implyng.
In a previous post of yours, unless I am mistaken, you said that you believed in Jesus.
If you could clarify what you mean that you are offended by the biblical phrase from Psalm 14 that [the fool , in his heart says that there is no God],which has spiritual implications, not intellectual ones, yet you say that you believe in Jesus, then I could have a better understanding of what you mean by being offended, for it is my understanding that to believe in Jesus does mean that you believe in your heart that there IS a God,for he is represented as
The Son of God and thearfor in the family of God, and thearfor is God, in Christiandom as to what my understanding of Christaindom teachngs are. Are you saying that you beleive in Jesus , but you also do not believe in your heart that there is a God? If so, could you clarify that?
If you can clarify this, then I can have a better undestanding of this and be better able to communicate with you in this discussion. As of now, it is my understanding that most of Cristiandom , except for a few groups, states that God is a "trinity" and Jesus [is God according to popular Cristiandom doctrine] so that those that believe in Jesus, do believe in their heart that there is a God .
Now if you can clarify that, then I could be better able to communicate with you in this discussion. But, are you saying that you still do not believe in your heart that there is a God even though you state that you believe in Jesus?
Lou
