Atheist…Jesus loves you.

And I Can Prove It

In Return, Prove To Me That You Are Atheist!

To Believe Or Not To Believe That Is A Choice

Believe it …Jesus loves you, although you may wonder why?  Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do.”  Why would Jesus forgive you?  Because you are being deceived.  You, atheists and the Jews’ authority in the time of Jesus have something in common, and that is ‘unbelief.’  The Jews’ authority chose not to believe that God was among them through Jesus.  You also made a choice not to believe in God, period. 

You choose not to believe in God inasmuch as Christians have chosen to believe in God, and much more, in Jesus as Lord.  To use God’s Words, the Bible, to prove God's existence is futile since you do not accept the validity of His Words through man. We are faced with belief vs. unbelief. Christians are considered as unbelievers of the non-existence of God.  Hearsay vs. hearsay!

Nobody seems to be able to prove whether God exists or not. Atheists cannot prove that God does not exist, and Christians cannot prove without the use of the Bible that Jesus is the one that God had sent to save all souls from a terrible destiny in an eternal lake of fire called hell.  Many have died believing in Jesus, and many more died not believing in Jesus. Since more have died without accepting Jesus than those who did, does the majority win the vote that God doesn’t exist?  No one came back from the dead to reveal that Jesus is or not God.


Albert Einstein had a personal view of God and evil.  There are many reasons that since God created all things,  God therefore created evil.  View Albert Einstein's retort to his physics teacher on this subject. 

So, Christians cannot use the Bible to convince atheists because they believe that man wrote the bible, which is true.  You don’t believe that the Bible is God’s inspiring words, either.  So what can I say?  What proof can I use, and what argument can I use? It all comes down to making a choice, to believe or not to believe; that is a choice. Please watch this video, "God vs. Atheism: Which is More Rational?" 

To Believe or not to Believe is a choice.

For Christians to believe in the non-existence of God is disturbing.  It is the same for an atheist to believe in the existence of God because you would then be accountable for the choice of your eternal destiny, heaven or hell. One Christian testimony of answered prayers is not sufficient to persuade an atheist. One atheist testimony of circumstantial evidence defined as pure luck is also not sufficient to persuade a Christian of God’s nonexistence. So Christians and atheists alike face a dilemma…no one can prove whether God exists or not. 

Atheists and Christians are no better off than historians.  Historians debate facts from myth, trying to put the past together. Archeology studies could be viewed as the result of acceptable speculation, not proof.  And even proof can easily be dismissed. For example, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad rejects all facts and proof that the Holocaust against Jews ever took place.  And you know, for somebody who did not go through or seen the horror of concentration camps of the Second World War, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's assumptions are considered true by many.  I could be watching a video documentation of a bloody battle scene of D-Day and conclude that it was made in Hollywood.  So you see, a choice is made to believe or not.

Humans have one huge flaw, and that is we forget.  We do not remember more than one generation at best.  Christians and atheists are no better than historians who debate the validity of documents that may help to clarify any facts from hearsay, which could be used as propaganda.  That is the case concerning the ownership of Jerusalem.  Palestinians contradict the Jewish connection to Jerusalem.  The Palestinians invent their own history and accuse Israel of liars even as it lays claim to the sole rights over the entire city.

By 1990, the Islamic spotlight on Jerusalem reached such a bizarre standoff the Palestinians denied the city's sacred and historical importance to Jews.  The Palestinian Arab establishment promoted a false claim by reconstructing history with an equal part of lies.  They had made Jewish connections to the land of Israel obsolete.

Here is an excerpt of a commentary by Daniel Pipes titled “What Jewish Ties to Jerusalem?”

“Palestinian Arabs now claim that Canaanites built Solomon's Temple, that the ancient Hebrews were Bedouin tribesmen, the Bible came from Arabia, the Jewish Temple " was in Nablus or perhaps Bethlehem," the Jewish presence in Palestine ended in 70 C.E., and today's Jews are descendants of the Khazar Turks. Yasser Arafat himself created a non-existent Canaanite king, Salem, out of thin air, speaking movingly about this fantasy Palestinian Arab "forefather." Palestinian Media Watch sums up this process: By turning Canaanites and Israelites into Arabs and the Judaism of ancient Israel into Islam, the Palestinian Authority "takes authentic Jewish history, documented by thousands of years of continuous literature, and crosses out the word 'Jewish' and replaces it with the word 'Arab'." 

What would be gained by the Palestinians to distort history? They would gain Western media support.  So you see, if these changes in historical facts are being altered today, what is to say that the history of mankind has not been altered also?  What if the history of the origin of mankind has been distorted?  What would be its purpose?  What would be its motive? One thing is sure… its main purpose would be hiding the truth.  What would be gained from hiding the truth?  Your soul... the purpose of your existence.

Now, allow me to speculate, and you could come up with your own conclusion.

What if, yes, there was a lost tribe that kept a record of the origin of time.  What if that lost tribe had an ancient manuscript in a language that ceased to exist thousands of years ago?  What if that tribe had kept records of the lineage of all the tribe's descendants?  And what if that manuscript described a world that existed at one time and had no proof of its existence today except for myth and legend?  What if this mysterious tribe mentions a God that used to walk with man at the beginning of time. What if the tribe described this God as to be the creator of all that exists? What if that tribe is Israel, the Jews, and that the manuscript is the Torah, better known as the Five Books of Moses?  Could that be proof? 

One day in the late 19th Century, Queen Victoria of England reportedly asked her Prime Minister, Benjamin Disraeli, this question..."Mr. Prime Minister, what evidence can you give me of the existence of God?" Disraeli thought for a moment and then replied, "The Jew, your majesty."

“Thus says the Lord Who gives the sun for light by day and the fixed order of the moon and the stars for light by night; Who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar; the Lord of hosts is His name. If this fixed order departs from before Me, declares the Lord, then the children of Israel also will cease forever, from being a nation before Me." Jeremiah 31:35, 36

What if Israel is the proof that God exists? Think about it; their land has been under foreign occupation for 2,553 years, from 586 B.C.   In 1948, the United Nations established a renewed state of sovereignty for Israel.  In 1967, the Jewish army miraculously captured Jerusalem during the Six-Day War.  What if I tell you that these events came true as prophesied in the Old Testament?

Here is an excerpt of a Newsletter from Lambert Dolphin at http://www.ldolphin.org/news/newsletter-109.html

“God brought the people of Israel together at Mt. Sinai, there forming them into a nation (about 1500 BC). This was just after He delivered them from 430 years of enslavement in Egypt. The Lord God promised Israel that they would have a permanent place in history, eventually assuming leadership over all of the ~70 nations in the world. This covenant God made with Israel extends earlier unconditional promises with Israel given to Moses. These promises have never been rescinded or altered. Some students of the Bible have failed to notice that the right of the Jews to live in the land given to Abraham and to them by God is conditional. Twice the Jews have been temporarily excluded from living in their own land because of very serious disobedience. A very key sign that the "Second Exile" is ending in our time is the establishment of the state of Israel in 1948.

There remains a series of events, soon to unfold, called by the Jews "The Final Redemption," during which time Israel will undergo spiritual rebirth and her appointed Messiah will appear in person. Militarily, Israel will win a final great world war and be elevated to Chief among the nations. The terrible violence, suffering and death at the end of the age will greatly reduce he world population. During his three-year teaching time on earth, ~2000 years ago, Jesus Christ announced that He would build "His church," thus completing the second half of covenantal promises to Abraham. God promised that Abraham would be the father of all true believers, divided them into an earthly people, the nation of Israel, and a people having a heavenly called, the church, or "Bride of Christ." (The New Testament provides us with a rich history of the "church age.") Following the death and resurrection and ascension of Jesus, while Israel has scattered in exile around the world-- (their land desolate and unused), the God of Israel has seen to it that the message of God's love and redemption to the entire world was never silenced for long. The "gospel" began with Israel, but excludes no one. All signs point to the completion of the church any day now. Romans 9, 10, and 11 go over in detail the difference between Israel and the Church. Both entities have a permanent role in God's plans for mankind.”

Let us speculate further: God chose a man out of gentile nations to start a new lineage called the Children of Israel with a language called Hebrew.  For what purpose?  For two purposes: to keep documentation of His relationship with mankind and to make known His intention with mankind.  The man chosen was Abram, but his name was changed later to Abraham.  This man, Abraham, called the "father of all who believe," was born in what is Iraq about 4200 years ago.  What makes Abraham so special?  He was no better than the so-called Bob.  It could have been Bob; he could have been known as 'Bobraham.'  It could have been you.  It was God’s choice.

You may wonder why God wouldn’t just show himself to me.  And if He does, who then would believe you?  Look at the example of the Apostle Paul; he persecuted Christians, Jesus appeared to him, and the Jewish authorities did not believe him and tried to kill him.  This is how Paul describes himself, “although I was formerly a blasphemer, a persecutor, and an insolent man; but I obtained mercy because I did it ignorantly in unbelief,” 1 Timothy 1:13. Sound familiar?

Can you imagine Jesus appearing to you having a conversation with you? Would your friends’ atheists believe you?  Would you believe a friend who testified that Jesus spoke to him?  Let then Jesus show himself to a whole group of people.  Why not prove his power?  My answer is he already did so, and a few believed.  You see, it is one thing to believe in the existence of God; it is another to accept him.

The Torah and Old Testament are a transcript of testimonies of God's appearance and demonstration of His presence among us.  The Old Testament holds God's testimonies to man, woman, and nations.  It holds testimonies of acceptance or rejection of God.

Even today, you hear of someone who had rejected his or her father for whatever reason.  Some declared that their father does not exist in their life anymore because of past abuse.  Unfortunately, many view God as of the same nature as their physical father.  Some blame God for taking away someone they loved.  Some blame God for the abuse they experience and blame God for not intervening, therefore not only rejecting God but denying His existence.  Many are those who say, if there is a God, why does he allow all the suffering?  It is not God that is evil but us.  If God would intervene (in many cases, He does), to whose standard of morality would He use?  Bob’s, John’s, Mary’s, or yours?

Sins cause suffering.  We are all guilty of sins and of hurting someone.  We all have harmed someone, if not physically or emotionally.  Some more than others.  The abuser and the abused need healing.  Moreover, until we cease to blame God and others and do not accept that we, too, are guilty of disobedience, we will be separated from God forever. 

We are condemned to bear our suffering for eternity with Satan, who has deceived the whole world.  Satan took advantage of your misfortune and resentments to turn you against God.  What would be gained from hiding the truth?  YOU. Satan doesn’t want to be alone in hell, and he wants you.  He doesn’t want you to believe.  Please read, “To become a Christian, that is easy, First & Final Stepl.”

That is why Jesus intervenes in your life.  He decided on His own to pay for the penalty of our disobedience.  “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life” (John 3:16).  That is the simplicity of the gospel, to believe.  Believe in the One that God had sent, and that is Jesus (John 5:24).  The Old Testament mentions and prophesies about Jesus.

For a detailed description of prophetic events, read the following commentary by Jack Kelley titled "Prophecies Of The Lord’s Death And Resurrection" at  http://gracethrufaith.com. 

“He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God,” John 3:18.  

Like it or not, ‘Satan owns you’.  You are already condemned.  That is the reason Jesus died: to deliver you from Satan.  Jesus wants to own you back.

“He who believes in the Son has everlasting life, and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him” (John 3:36).  The wrath of God, meaning in our day and age is “God hard love.”  He lets you choose your destiny; that is how much He respects and loves you. To know more about "God's hard love," please listen to the following sermon with Andy Faller from Calvary Fellowship Ottawa. 

Many more believed because of His own word,” (John 4:41).  Your destiny is now in your hand.  Make the choice not only to believe in the existence of a God but to accept Jesus as the One that God had sent to save you from an awful destiny.

I invite you to believe and to accept Jesus.  He loves you, and He wants to share His inheritance with you.  It’s about you.  No one can make that decision for you… Choose life.

If you are not convinced yet, and you are more of an intellectual, please listen to this YouTube presentation: We Are All Called To Defend The Faith - Pastor Eric Douma.

You now have been witness to the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Do you believe you are a sinner?  Do you believe you are hopelessly lost without a saviour?  Do you believe God sent His Son to die for your sins? Do you accept His death as payment in full for your sins?  If you answer yes to these questions…tell it to Jesus… ask for His forgiveness, and God will send His Holy Spirit… a seal for eternity.  You are now a son of God.  Son of God is a title given to all men and women believers.

Mystery In The Trinity Revealed In A Molecule Of Water (H²O)

Whoever desires, let him take the water of life freely,

Revelation 22:17

Water was the first element mentioned in the book of Genesis.  Earth initiated as a blob of water, Gen 1:2.  The surrounding was void, dark and deep.  Imagine, there was nothing, empty space, dark, and void of physical matter.  Then there is water, a huge mass of water.  There is no mention of when it was created.  It just was.  

The Spirit of God hovered over the face of the waters.  No Big Bang, no mass explosion, no expansion of the universe, no gas, no particles that took trillions of years to come together to create the earth, the sun, the moon and the stars.  There was no volcano, no poisonous gas, no wild electrical storm to form the earth and eventually all living things…just water. (Image source:Paul Gitto)

What a contrast between The Big Bang Theory and the description of God’s creation.  The Word created all things.  It was said then it was done, (John 1:1-5).  All things were created in six days.  Why six days?  That is symbolic.  It is part of revealing God’s plan to whoever seeks God.

In Simplicity in the Gospel, my main goal is to explain God’s Word as simply as possible by taking Jesus by His Word.  In reading the Bible I focus on reasoning not through the eyes of the world but by accepting His words literally.  I use an analogy to clarify a difficult subject matter, compared to Jesus who hides understanding.  Jesus used symbols, parables, and metaphors.  Why is that?  The answer is that Jesus reveals only to those who love Him and seek Him, (Matt 13:11, 1 Cor 2:9).  Therefore, if you seek the truth and understanding He will reveal it to you, and that is a promise.  If you are secular in your reasoning, you will have difficulties to understand.  Love God and seek Him.  Ask Him to open the eyes of your heart.  Jesus loves you, do you?  Then tell Him.  He loves to hear from you.

In nowhere space, (empty and void) water was about.  On the first day, light came about.  This is not the sun or moon.  It is light from nowhere appearing. That same light will also be revealed at Jesus return, Zechariah 14:7  (Image source)

On the second day, the water was separated in two creating the firmament.  A blob of water is surrounded by a boundary like a huge transparent shield.    (Image Source)

On the third day,  land appeared.  Lands covered the water in some areas and in other areas, water was collected as seas.  Grass, herbs of all kinds and trees of all kinds came about.  Mist waters nourished the land, (Gen 2:6).

On the fourth day, the stars, the sun and the moon were created.  What a contrast compared with the Big Bang theory where many argue that it first came about.   Some argue that it is impossible since the universe is expanding and that the speed of light proves that by the time the light reaches Earth millions of years have passed. They concluded that the universe is billions of years old. The error in that theory is that God created the stars, the sun and the moon with the law of physics all in one day within the waters.

“When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place, what is mankind that you are mindful of them, human beings that you care for them?” (Psalm 8:3-4).

"The heavens expose the glory of God.   The skies announce what his hands have made. Each new day tells more of the story, and each night reveals more and more about God’s power.  You cannot hear them say anything. They don’t make any sound we can hear. But their message goes throughout the world. Their teaching reaches the ends of the earth. The sun’s tent is set up in the heavens." (Psalm 19:1-4 (ERV))

Goodsalt.com

On the fifth day, all living creatures in the seas and in the air came about.  On the sixth day, all living creatures on the lands came about, including a man and a woman.

How great our God is.  Believe it; all things were created for one purpose.  It was created for us.  It is created as a habitat to teach us, to train us, to prepare us for a greater purpose, and to become part of God’s family.  This earth is our teaching ground, our university.  Have you learned something yet?  Do you understand why Jesus commands us to seek first the kingdom of God and its righteousness?  That is the great mystery of man’s existence reveals.  Now you know. Simple isn’t!  

Let us go back to the mystery of the Trinity revealed in a molecule of water. The  Earth and all things upon it came out of water, (2 Peter 3:5).  What is so special about water?  The mass of water consists of many particles of water.  A particle of water easily combines with another particle of water. 

What is so special about water?  Life without water dies.  Without water, there is no life.  All life, whether plants, animal, birds, and fish, are composed of water.  All life mostly consists of 55% to 78% water.

Water plays an important part in the Bible.  Water is all about God, and God is all about water. Water describes the basic but important character of God, the Sustainer.  As water sustains all living things, God sustains all things, spiritual dimension and physical. God created the spiritual word to sustain spiritual life as angels, and God created the physical world to sustain man and all other creatures. 

Let us examine one of the many symbols that water represents. As we study its significance it will help to reveal the mystery of/in the Trinity. (Image source:bible.ca)

 "As the deer pants for the water brooks, so pants my soul for You, O God", Psalm 42:1.

Jesus answered and said to her, “If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, ‘Give Me a drink,’ you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water,” John 4:10.

As I mentioned earlier, life without water dies.; So is our soul without God. Our soul is a living spiritual immortal being. In as much as a living physical organism needs water to sustain life so does our soul. God created our soul therefore it belongs to God, (Eze 18:4, Mat 10:28). We need God to sustain our soul, (Mat 16:26). Since Adam’s disobedience, and our sins, God ceases to nourish our souls. Since the grass withered without water so is our soul withered without God. Depression, loneliness and empty feeling in our heart are signs that our soul thirsts for God.  So many people turn to entertainment, illicit sex and alcoholism to fill the void.      

“I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me, you can do nothing.  If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned,” John 15:5-6.  The branches need sap (a watery solution that circulates through a plant's vascular system) to be healthy to produce fruits. Jesus is the vine.  





Jesus is the One who asked the Father to send the Holy Spirit to spiritually sustain us. (Lamentations 1:16, John 14:16,26).  Notice that the Holy Spirit also plays an important role to sustaining us, just like water.  But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His, Romans 8:9.  The Holy Spirit nourishes us by helping us to understand God’s words, help us to remember His teaching, help us to pray to the Father, and many more.  “However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come.  He will glorify Me, for He will take of what is Mine and declare it to you.  All things that the Father has are Mine. Therefore I said that He will take of Mine and declare it to you,” (John 16:13-15).

The Holy Spirit was affixed as part of our soul.  He is integrated with our soul. He does not possess the body as demons do but rather incorporate His presence into our soul. Isn’t it wonderful? We are now united with God the Father as Jesus is.  “I pray for them. I do not pray for the world but for those whom You have given Me, for they are Yours.  And all Mine are Yours, and Yours are Mine, and I am glorified in them.  Now I am no longer in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to You. Holy Father, keep through Your name those whom You have given Me, that they may be one as We are,” John 17:9-11

Jesus also prayed for all believers to be one with God the Father.  “I do not pray for these alone, but also for those who will believe in Me through their word; that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me. And the glory which You gave Me I have given them, that they may be one just as We are one:  I in them, and You in Me; that they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may know that You have sent Me, and have loved them as You have loved Me.  (Image source)

“Father, I desire that they also whom You gave Me may be with Me where I am, that they may behold My glory which You have given Me; for You loved Me before the foundation of the world.  O righteous Father! The world has not known You, but I have known You; and these have known that You sent Me.  And I have declared to them Your name, and will declare it, that the love with which You loved Me may be in them, and I in them,” John 17:20-26.

“that the world may believe that You sent Me.”  There is an event called the ‘rapture’ where Jesus will return for His bride, the church. These are those whom the Spirit dwells in. They will be taken away, and disappear in tin air, leaving behind only their clothes.  It will be a testimony to all nations that Jesus spoke the truth.

God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are One.  They represent a particle of water, H²O.  The chemical formula for water is H²O, and this composition explains the mystery of the Trinity. It tells you that there are 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom. That means there are 3 atoms in all.  Interesting isn’t it. The Father symbolizes oxygen, the Son and the Holy Spirit symbolize hydrogen, and therefore a molecule of water symbolizes the Trinity. Again, this is an analogy.

God created the spiritual dimension for angels. God created the earth, the sun, the moon, and the stars for us.  He is the Creator; hence, He is beyond the physical and the spiritual. To be seen in both worlds, He made Himself known as 'The Word' in the spiritual world and as 'Jesus' in the physical world, John 1:1-14. The Holy Spirit is God's presence in all dimensions. He sustains all things, the source of power, a helper, and the Will of God visible in both the spiritual world and physical world, (Acts 13:36, Romans 8:27, Romans 12:2).

So the reason why the Trinity forms a unit of One is because the Father (oxygen) has a strong tendency to attract.  Our souls are invited to be part of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit (hydrogen), (John 3:5.) I am reminding you that this is an analogy.  It is God the Father who keeps us united together.  That is why Jesus asks the Father to bring us to be one with them. He went on to say, “This is why I told you that no one can come to me unless the Father has enabled them,” (John 6:65). “I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of my hand,” (John 10:28). We are bonded for eternity to God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.  The Holy Spirit already dwells with those who believe. We are yet to see the spiritual transformation at Jesus's return.

In conclusion

God created us.  We are immortal souls. We have been incorporated into a physical body within the physical creation to make a decision and to learn to grow in righteousness, to become more like Jesus.  Although it is God the Father that makes the calls, He gave us free will to choose.  The choice is to be at one with Him for eternity or separate from Him for eternity in the darkness of hell and will forever be alienated from God. God's desire is for no one to perish.  

“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life,” John 3:16.  

  

And the Spirit and the Bride say, “Come!”

And let him who hears say, “Come!”

And let him who thirsts come.

Whoever desires, let him take the water of life freely,

Revelation 22:17

Amen
