Zone1 Hebrews 1:8 says Jesus is God

[Donald H]

Yesterday one of the Christians told me in desperation for an answer, that the god made a special fish for Jonah to live in for three days!

And so the story is true!

It just keeps getting better with each pointed question, responded to with more clever invented answers!

What's wrong with Christians referring to 'Answers in Genesis'? They've created a site with all the best answers!

So, now you are attacking the words of God through his apostles like Paul.

Anyone who would write "submit to the governing authorities" when Nero was caesar wasn't an apostle of Jesus.

Whether of his own free will or because he was being tortured in a Roman prison Paul was promoting Mithraism, upon which each of the over 30,000 Christian denominations are based. Mithraism was the secret Babylonian MYSTERY RELIGION of the Roman government and military that became the Roman Catholic Church in 325ce.

The Church teaching people to worship Jesus, a man, as if he was an edible triune god is how Rome has used "the power of death" consequent to defying Divine Law to beguile and subjugate the nations ever since 325ce.

You pray to and worship the Antichrist, a false substitute counterfeit Jesus with all the "miracles of the lie" that scripture is to be taken literally conjured from the depths of a Roman hell and unleashed on the world in 325ce.

Now you know.

How is it that you, a dedicated "believer", , does't know the only right course to take? Where is your faith?

Seriously?

Do you give thanks and praise to God before or after you openly defy the Divine commands by worshiping a trinity that became a man, derp, or after you celebrate the death of Jesus, hmmm, and desecrate his teachings by turning to a lifeless piece of bread to worship and eat for spiritual life as if the Body of Christ, WORDS that form the Body of his teaching, can be handed out and eaten like a cheap snack food and flushed down the toilet.

Im sure that God is very impressed!

I am.

I give thanks and praise to God every second of my day. You?

 

[hobelim]

I give thanks and praise to God every second of my day. You?

My God doesn't need his ass kissed. I prove my faith every day by worshiping my God in Spirit and in truth.

It's pretty obvious from your sour disposition you don't give God thanks or praise.

Why do Jews give God thanks and praise?

Jews offer thanks and praise to God as a central part of their faith, acknowledging His goodness and acknowledging the blessings they receive. It's a way of expressing gratitude for everything from daily life to specific events like festivals and personal milestones. This practice is rooted in the belief that God is the creator and sustainer of the universe, and that all good things come from Him.

Reasons for Giving Thanks and Praise:

  Jews believe God has a relationship with them and has performed miraculous deeds, such as the exodus from Egypt, the giving of the Torah, and the constant providence in their lives.
  
  
• Blessings and Grace:
  Judaism emphasizes the importance of acknowledging God's generosity and the many blessings they receive, from food and health to the opportunity to live a meaningful life.

• Sacred Practice:
  The Torah, Talmud, and other Jewish texts highlight the importance of expressing gratitude through prayers, blessings, and specific rituals like the "Korban Todah" (sacrifice of thanks).

Yes, Jews give thanks and praise to God. It's a central part of Jewish faith and practice. Gratitude is a core value, and Jewish prayer, daily life, and traditions are filled with expressions of thanks and praise.

Saying you praise God or expressing faith or gratitude is worthless if you do not actually do what God wills. Its just a crock of shit. Flat out pretense. If you wanted to show your faith in God and gratitude you would shut your stupid mouth cover yourself with dust and ashes and repent for your brazen sins of idolatry, sorcery, and murder.

Are you done editing your post?

Why do you praise God?

Like I said, my God doesn't need his ass kissed. If you wanted to demonstrate faith in God you would do what he commands, but you only say and do the exact opposite. That's why the simple truth remains above your grasp.

You defy the Law of God religiously and descended into Gehenna, the realm of the dead, many decades ago.

You have your reward already!

So you don't give God thanks or praise? Ever?

 

[ding]

It would be considered unusual for someone who believes in God to never express gratitude or praise to God.

Here's why:

• Core Tenet of Faith: Many religions emphasize thanking and praising God as a fundamental aspect of acknowledging their belief and dependence on a higher power.
• Biblical Commands: The Bible, for example, directly instructs believers to "give thanks in all circumstances" and "always and for everything".
• Source of Blessings: Many believers attribute their blessings, both big and small, to God and see gratitude as a natural response.
• Spiritual Benefits: Expressing thanks and praise can foster a deeper connection with God, cultivate humility, and help individuals appreciate their blessings.
• Addressing Suffering: While it can be challenging, even during difficult times, some religious perspectives encourage finding ways to express thanks as a demonstration of faith and trust in God's plan.

What do you mean? Like going to church and crying out loud, "hallelujah!, Praise God! Thanks you Jesus! And then condemning the poor, drug users, homosexuals, women, immigrants, and anyone who rejects your bullshit?

No. I would rather be drawn and quartered.

Like I said I demonstrate my gratitude and praise by casting out demons, raising the dead, giving sight to the blind, healing the sick, curing the paralyzed, while treading on scorpions, immune to the poison of serpents.

No. I mean throughout the course of a day. Do you never give God thanks and praise?

In Jewish tradition, expressing gratitude and blessing God is seen as a way of acknowledging God's role in our lives and can lead to receiving blessings.

Seriously?

Have you never noticed that the history of the Jewish people reflects perfectly the long list of maledictions that Moses promised would happen if they turned aside from THE WAY he taught to follow the Law?

My God requires more than lip service.
