Then you didn't read the link I sent. The Judeo-Christian values were defined at a time when Hellenistic philosophy was the dominant viewpoint of that part of the world. These people did not live in complete isolation of what was around them. There is a significant influence of Hellenistic philosophy on Christianity. Even the idea of the Trinity itself is probably no more than an imitation of the Greek mystery cults that were flourishing at the time of Jesus.

Please point to these influences. So when Jesus stated:

And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand. My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father’s hand. I and My Father are one.” (John 10:28-30 NKJV)

He was influenced by Hellenistic philosophy?

Or when John wrote:

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. (John 1:1-3 NKJV)

He too was influenced by Hellenistic philosophy?

Did Hellenistic Greeks believe that the universe had a beginning? I think you know the answer.

so how does God help u believers, u read to pass your exams same as i do, u work to eat same as i do, u fall sick same as i do and u will one day die same as i will?

At least you admit you gonna die,same as everybody but while he will be going to Heaven,where will you be-not judging you but am lending credence to what is said in the Bible. What shall it profit a man to gain the whole world but lose his soul..if you like get all the money in this world but without God,you are empty..all those things are mere nothing after all, you can only eat and shiit it out but In heaven,you can live for ever,no death, no sickness, it's all Happiness-i teyu...it's all qonna be sweet in heaven...all what is in earth can not be compare with the One Jesus said 'He is going to prepare for us"

If mohammed turns out to be right, you will end in hell just like him

rationalmind:

If mohammed turns out to be right, you will end in hell just like him

What did Mohammed really preach, if he preached being good,then i agree with him,if he preach otherwise, then i don't agree with him, If Mohammed says we should kill for God while Jesus Christ said Love your enemy' if someone slaps you,turn the other chin' then use your common sense which God install in us to know which religion is good,but Religion can't save you,
- what am i saying is, no religion can save us,not even my christianity,Hinduism, nor Islam, The real deal is what is your relationship with God? Are you doing what is righteous? Do you understand me now, never you allow what some christians are doing or Muslims, whether they are killing people or not is not your concern, you should be concern with where will you after death...be reminded that all those people who killed with guns shall surely die, so don't be moved bu what you see,the world is soaring wicked, reason is everybody wants money.wants to outsmart each other....But we are happy that there is God who sees all this,no wonder He is called the Merciful God-He already knows that, And that's why he sent his Son through which who die righteous dead can be smiling in Heaven.. You get my drift now

Oh!!, What a wonderful God I serve. He is so merciful, very generous when it comes to forgiving provided it's from the heart.

Rather than you shaking my faith in God, you have solidified it.

So, Thanks!

But my dear, God is sooooooooooooo Merciful-You can imagine the insult, these atheist have been pouring out on God but yet He doesn't kill them- that shows God is awesome.

1) iF YOU READ MY REPLY TO NATIVE BOY, you would see that it is you christians/muslims shoving your religion down people's throats and you expect them not to complain? Churches blasting loudspeakers, government using taxpayer money sponsor churches and pilgrimages...

2) Go to a science website and read about evolution. Why is it that you christians always mistake belief in evolution for atheism? Does the thought of humans evolving scare you and your religion?

exactly... religion is simply a ploy of man to search for God, to connect with him..
but, Christ has reconnect us back to God.. so, Christianity is out of religion.. it is now a way of getting to God through Christ by doing what he did.. a christlike behaviour..

In Abuja, An Atheist brought an ex parte application against the Christmas Holiday declared by the government The case was brought before Justice Akpos. . He hired Barrister Rukevwe Akpokiniovo to file an action on grounds of discrimination in favour Christians and Muslims concerning observation of their Holy Days. The argument was that it was unfair that atheists had no such recognised days. According to him,'The Christians have Christmas, Easter and Others. The Muslims have Eid-el-kabir, Eid-el-fitri and Others. But my client and other Atheists have no such holidays. Justice Akpos said to the Counsel, 'Applicant and other Atheists have their own day. It is just that Applicant is woefully ignorant.
The Lawyer said,'My Lord,we are unaware of any special observance or holiday for Atheists. After listening to the powerful submission of Applicant's Counsel , the Judge dismissed the case. According to Justice Akpos,'The Calendar says April 1st
every year is April Fools' day. Psalm 14 verse 1 says, The fool says in his heart, there is no God. It is the opinion of this court that, if your client says there is no God, then he is a fool. Therefore, April 1st is his day

You are actually the same with God. Both of you are Jokes. Read this

2kings 2:23-24

23 And he went up from thence unto Bethel: and as he was going up by the way, there came forth little children out of the city, and mocked him, and said unto him, Go up, thou bald head; go up, thou bald head.
24 And he turned back, and looked on them, and cursed them in the name of theLord. And there came forth two she bears out of the wood, and tare forty and two children of them.

You must be happy reading those verses. Arent you?

God has always been free of blame.

As the saying goes "As you lay your bed,so you will lie on it* You sow evil- you shall reap same- You sow good- same shall you reap
- You believe in God and Believe In his Son- you shall be save
- If you don't believe in Him-then everlasting torment awaits such persons-
But above all, God loves all of us and that's why he said "Come to me ye that are heavy-laden" It is not his will some of us should suffer in hell or suffer on earth, that's why He created Heaven and earth, so that He will finally see us in Heaven enjoying, Hell was made for satan for disobeying God not for men but since satan said no,he can't suffer and burn in hell fire alone,that he must carry people along with him" and so it is imperative that Jesus Christ have to come and die for us,our sins that you as a sinner should be save through Him alone" It is as simple as ABC. Hell fire is a place where you will look for where to die but you won't see dead- i don't wish any of the atheist visit such place, It is not somthing you wanna feel- if you don'y believe what i am telling you, light a match on a stove-then put your fingers and tell me how it feels, Hell fire will be more than that..i am telling you....you will carry yourself knack for ground,shoot yourself(where will you even see gun sef inside hell) but dead will not come'
the thing is, Now you have heard that there is God who created everything, Humbly accept Him into your life-It is Not Hard ohhh, just do this and live a good and worthy life and make Heaven,it is as easy as this...
*Am done arguing with you oh,am tired* saunters off*
