@Holy__Bible1 "It is good to grasp the one and not let go of the other. Whoever fears God will avoid all extremes."
Ecclesiastes 7:18

Do not neglect personal devotions, and for the church, choose one that suits you. The Scriptures say, 'Do not stop gathering together.（
Hebrews 10:25）

I haven't forgotten about this reply, I just wanted to wait until I was in the proper headspace to address it, and address it as well as I could.

The truth is, I was a self-proclaimed agnostic for a long time. And when I first thought somewhat seriously about God again, I was a major skeptic who wanted actual proof of His existence. I was always a "facts matter most" type of person, and one of the biggest reasons I always had an issue with Christianity was because it all seemed like a big storybook to me. How could all these miracles actually have happened? And how am I supposed to blindly trust what people say happened in this old book when it all had allegedly happened so long ago?

But that's when I started really digging into it for myself, because I just felt a need to. Plus, I do love history, many of you know I went to school for that as well, so it was all of importance and genuine interest to me.

You will find many Christians that argue that you don't need to "prove" anything, you can just have faith and faith alone. And while that is true, I believe it is possible to prove it happened historically. And I am certainly not the only Christian who believes this. You should not shy away from asking questions, after all, how else do you seek the truth?

Firstly, it is not a disputable fact at all that Jesus of Nazareth was a real person, virtually all historians, including non-Christians, agree on this based on early sources (Josephus, Tacitus, Suetonius, Pliny the Younger, Lucian of Samosata, and more).

So the real question becomes: Did Jesus die and rise again? This is the central question to focus on. Because if you can prove this never happened, that is how you destroy the argument for Christianity.

There are documents, lots of them. There are over 5,800 Greek manuscripts of the New Testament that can be compared and verified, far more than for any other ancient text. Compare it to Homer's Iliad, which has about 1,800 manuscripts. If you stacked the documents of the average classical work you'd get around 4 feet, but if you did it with all the New Testament manuscripts you'd get over a mile high.

And I want to stress that there are real, tangible documents that exist to this day. This was only 2000 years ago. Don't get me wrong, that is a long time ago, but when I realized this, it made me see it a bit differently: 2,000 years sounds like forever, but it’s really only about 50 to 67 lifetimes, figuring people lived around 30 to 40 years on average, passing down accounts and beliefs to their children. That is fascinating to me. And the honest truth is, it really wasn't until the most recent years that the concept of any God at all was "silly" to this many people, like it is today. Historically, this was never the norm.

And on these very real, physical manuscripts, they wrote things down. They recorded things back then, paper and pen existed. Records existed. The sources get as close as 20-30 years (or even closer) to Jesus's life and resurrection. For example, Paul's letters (like 1 Thessalonians) were written around 50 AD, just about 20 years after Jesus's death around 30-33 AD, and the Gospels followed within the next few decades.

Jesus definitely died on the cross. He was brutally tortured in many ways, with whips made of leather strips embedded with bone/metal/stone fragments, designed to tear into the skin and muscle, ripping flesh and causing severe bleeding and trauma. This alone often left people near death from blood loss. Large iron nails were driven through his wrists and feet. A crown of thorns shoved on top of His head. And finally, a Roman soldier thrust a spear into Jesus’ side, as recorded in John 19:34, producing “blood and water,” a detail consistent with medical analysis suggesting fluid from a ruptured pericardial sac or pleural effusion, confirming he was already dead. Jesus undeniably died.

Over 500 eyewitnesses claimed they saw Jesus after He was crucified. Many of the eyewitnesses still alive during the time Paul wrote this. They also wrote that women found the empty tomb, but in those days women were not considered reliable witnesses in court or society, so if they were lying to try and make a believable story, why use women? It would make no sense.

You have to understand that Jesus' followers also died brutal deaths proclaiming all of this as true.

It was common to allow those being persecuted an opportunity to recant in order to avoid suffering. The enemies of Christianity had reason to offer an opportunity to recant, since recantations would be valuable to them. If any of the apostles had recanted, as modern skeptics sometimes suggest as a possibility, the non-Christians who received the recantation or heard about it would have had an incentive to make that recantation known.

But most of the apostles were martyred, and none recanted. Peter was crucified upside down, James was beheaded, Andrew was crucified on an X-shaped cross, and others faced similar gruesome deaths. Why would all of these people die brutal deaths for a lie? Even a skeptic like Paul, who hunted and murdered Christians, completely changed and became a leader in the church after seeing the risen Jesus.

Mass hypnosis isn't possible on this scale, it would be a miracle itself if that were to somehow happen.

People don't knowingly die brutal deaths for a lie.

The truth is there is a lot of evidence, but I am unsure if all the evidence in the world is enough for people who already have their mind made up and their heart hardened. You have to be willing to look at the evidence with an open mind and heart. And if you do, I truly believe God will present Himself to you amidst it all, and you will feel the truth as He changes your very heart inside you, and fills you with the Holy Spirit. You will become a different person.

Jesus is VERY REAL and ALIVE and He is coming back. He is GOD and you can choose to research for yourself and accept the truth, or you can wait and face His judgment. But this isn't a cult, and I am not misguided, quite the opposite.

@PixelBibleBytes Thanks for sharing. I believe in the journey of your change of heart.
May God bless you.

Let the wicked forsake their ways and the unrighteous their thoughts.
Let them turn to the Lord, and he will have mercy on them,
and to our God, for he will freely pardon.
（Isaiah 55:7）

[Haruhi Aisaka❤️‍🔥 @HaruhiAisaka]

When it comes to your specific question about why God allows animals to commit immoral acts, the TRDL answer is because they are animals and are not created in “His image”. Animals act solely by instinct. By contrast, humans are created in the image of God and thus are given the ability of moral and rational reasoning. If a bear kills a person, we wouldn’t consider it a “moral failing” of the bear because bears can’t morally reason but instead act on instinct. But if a human murders another, then we would consider it a moral failure becuase humans ought to know from right and wrong.

Now asking, “why did God create a world where animals “sin”as opposed to a world where animals don’t” is a question I don’t have an answer to. God allowed the world to become this way and we simply have to accept that. It goes into the same category as “if God real, why bad thing?”

@Gino99305922 @PattieRose20 @SmokeyTaylor99 @RealJamesWoods There is no salvation outside Jesus.
Ephesians 5:24 "Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything."
Jesus is righteous; How about the church? What is worthy of Jesus relies not on titles but on holiness and righteousness.

@oliverburdick You sure？They are the Sons of Ishmael. The angel really talk with them and bless them.

The angel added, “I will increase your descendants so much that they will be too numerous to count.”（Genesis 16)

I only know that God blesses whomever He chooses to bless. For Abraham.

@Starry_Sand_ 愿天主的恩慈与怜悯常与你同在。
以色列民在旷野漂泊数十年才抵达天主的应许之地。我们这在外邦寄居的民身上所受的苦楚和冤屈，天主也实在看见了。
他正呼召你摆脱原来的地方。把一切交托给他吧。愿你平安。

@Starry_Sand_ 天主雅威曾对以色列人如此说，

“我是雅威，我曾向亚巴郎、依撒格、雅各伯显现为‘全能的天主’，至于我的名‘雅威’，他们未曾知道。
以色列民因埃及人的奴役所发的哀号，我实在听见了，我纪念我的约。”

“我是天主雅威，曾带你们出走埃及地，离开为奴家，我也折断你们所负的重轭，好叫你们挺身而走。”

@KaguyaFlandre 14 有些权势〔只是〕为着不希望人〈得救〉而为人带来〈好处〉，好使人能够容忍他们的存在。因为人一旦〈得救〉，就〈不会再〉献上祭物了。 动物不再被献给诸权势；因为他们就是用来献祭。它们乃是活活的被献上，但当被献上的时候，它们就死了。 当人被献给〔真〕神的时候，他是死的，而他却得着了生命

[Morris Hala Jakvta⚔️ @Gerulfing]

@KaguyaFlandre 13 掌权者想要欺哄人，因为他们看见人与其神有亲人般的关系。他们把善的名字赐给不善的，以致他们可以借着这些名字欺哄他，并且将他们和不善的捆绑在一起；再者，他们使他们从所谓「不善」的转向他们认为是「善」的，还好像是帮了他们一个忙似的。因为他们希望能得着自由的人，使他永远成为自己的奴仆
