For the Lord's followers only please...?

Question

Why do people that do not believe in God have to be so rude about it? When someone asks me if I believe I say yes, because I have a feeling that I cannot describe. I think to myself that I would hurt God's feelings if I said he was not real. If I feel like I can hurt someone, shouldn't that be proof enough? Does that not mean that I feel him and know when I have hurt him?

Answer 1

Do you feel you hurt Zeus' feelings when you say you don't believe in him?  Just curious.  Most atheists just believe in one less god than most Christians.

Answer 2

What you feel is the presence of God's Holy Spirit in you. You are doing right by going by that feeling and knowing that God is real and is in you. Blessings.

Answer 3

I think your assertion that the all powerful lord could succumb to something so trivial and human-like as "having His feelings hurt" is blasphemy.

Trust me. You have no capability whatsoever to hurt or offend God. He is more powerful and more superior to us than you can ever imagine.

Answer 4

Lily, your question of why  those who don't believe in God have to be so rude, can be answered in two simple words---Fear and Hatred. They fear the unknown, the fear the fact that they can't explain away the God of Christianity by the logic and science that they hold so dear. They fear Christians because, no matter how hard they try, they cannot break our spirit, our faith and our hope.  Because they fear us, they hate us. They hate the fact that they can't break our spirit. They hate us because the world hates Jesus Christ. They hate us because we belong to Jesus Christ. Christianity is an anvil that has worn out the hammers of the infidels for 2000 years and there's no end in sight for them and they fear and hate us for it.

  Lily, take heart, the unbelievers are all show and no go. We have what they want but they don't have the intestinal fortitude to take that one simple step to freedom.

Answer 5

Don't worry about what anyone else thinks.

God Loves you. Awesome God Loves us all.

God is Love, Love is God.

Trust Love.

Peace, love, calm and positivity to all.

Answer 6

But...

what about the flying pink unicorn.

Please don't hurt her feelings. :(

Plus, I love how you just completely say how atheists aren't allowed to post on a public space.

Shame on you.

Answer 7

It's called SIN. They will not own up to it. If you are a sinner than you need Christ. If you say that you are "good" thats a joke. They are good compared to WHOSE standards?

Answer 8

God is love.  If one loves one can be disappointed.  Jesus stood looking over Jerusalem and wept that they; had rejected him, forsaking their opportunity.  When Mary and Martha show such lack of faith at the tomb of Lazarus Jesus wept, for HE expectded better from those who had walked with him.  All of this is for our learning.  Every thing that was written and commanded is for our learning, our growth and our good.  God does not need anything, HE cannot be added to or anything taken away but HE loves us, that is why the scriptures state HE chastises us even as a father his children, but for our good.

Answer 9

Don't worry about it.  If you have proof that satisfies you then that's all that matters.  You have to believe what's right for your life not someone elses.

Answer 10

May God Bless You!

Our bible tells us that if we are ashamed of Jesus his father in Heaven will be ashamed of us.

Don't let anyone on here upset you. I know that is hard to do. I myself use to be here every day answering questions and spreading God's word, as I am supposed to.  It was so depressing reading day after day all the horrible things people said about my Lord & Savior; For that reason I stopped coming around so much.  I had to take time to see what God felt was best for me to do about coming here, since I did enjoy it.   I always hoped I would say something to "let the light bulb go off" for the non-believer.

If you are fairly new to here (I didn't see how long you had been here) concentrate on building a STRONG Christian network of Bud's!

After seeking God and really praying  about it. what I do now is see what questions are asked from the people in my network and answer those ONLY. I do not care of read what anyone else says who is a non-believer. I will scheme the first sentence of the answer and from that point I know rather it is something I will care to read; if it isn't I give ti a thumbs down and that takes care of it, out of sight out of mind, and if it is good, I read the rest and thumbs up it is! (IF I look at any of the other answers at all)

YES, God is real and you have a personal relationship with him. Cherish that, Hold on to it for all its worth because it is a very precious thing, and if you don't take care of it, you'll lose it. A realtionship with God takes work, just like a relationship with a mortal human. With God, I have to have quiet time, devotion time and just sit and wait on him to take to my heart. Stillness & in the bible, HIS WORD he instructs us is where we find him. That is why we are to the scritures hidden close in our heart :o)

May you always continue to feel Gods Love and walk with him in your presence!  For with God You can do all things and with man you can do none.

God Bless :)

Answer 11

Do not let what other people think/say get to you. I have found that unfortunately, the R&S section is where the rudest, cruelest people hang. Something about the idea of God being real, that really ticks people off and makes them obnoxious. It's to be expected. We are hated becaue He is hated.

Answer 12

I know, isn't it mean :(?  

But wait until they have to take it up with him!

Answer 13

Because ... why many people deny God is because they don't get what they want and because of that they blame God. Trust me, many people deny God because of selfish reasons, it's always selfish reasons.

Try and convert em, or ignore em! If they start getting racially abusive, sue em for hate crime!

Don't let your faith fall because of peer pressure or whatever, be tough.

Through God, even mountains will be crumbled at your feet.

God did mention:

Always forgive, never hold vengeance.

Never wish harm, for it is the Lord who has the right to avenge.

Preach the Good Word, it's your duty as a true Christian.

Answer 14

To Shadus: She asked for the Lord's followers only!  Can you not comprehend?

People who do not believe in God tend to be rude because at the core they have anger issues with Him.  Oh, they'll probably deny it, but how else can you explain the animosity?  

Also, atheists/agnostics spend an inordinate amount of time talking about God, whom they supposedly do not believe in.  Interesting, isn't it?!
