Oh wait! No it didn't.

There is more than one Jesus being taught in this world-- the mass of confusion, all can see in 33,000 different religions claiming to be Christian. One belongs to Jesus 1Cor 1:10)-- how did you find it?

Do you know what Jesus taught? You think so? The only way to find the one religion that he is with is by learning and applying all of his teachings. One doesn't have enough time in a single lifetime to search through the mass of confusion of 33,000 religions claiming to be Christian, but in reality only one is his.

A JW and a pentecostal arguing over which of their religions is the only true one. This should finally clear up the urgent existential questions of humanity.

you sure have a narrow and bitter closed mind as you toss everything about the scriptures into your Final Dump Bin of man-made religions. Your mind refuses to hear the speaker and you default into a void the writer has yet to venture. WildassUmptions because you have no discernment in this matter, but as I've read, this seems to be the only closed subject I have detected this sealed off nature in you. I suggest you reread everything keepsy has yet said, it is sure speaking a lot about the urgent existential questions of humanity and the root of it. I didn't hear one word about religion yet, and I have never read one word in scripture that told "Me" to go seek any religion. We shall keep an open mind and stick to the word of God. "And what has God asked of us but to walk peacefully with him?" Well, we ain't gonna do that!!!!!!! Scriptures prove that. So as you wish is what the scriptures taught me, hide you heads in the rocks is what the scriptures should teach you that disagree with the Father and surely disagree with je6u666 that stands with brazen feet upon some fiery furnace of affliction where you fight to bring all these curses and afflictions upon your own head. You don't think that could happen? You must be blind to your own nature of evil, as seen on TV. Greed is good, wars are good, money for more bombs is good, Monsanto Land is welcoming you as the earth shivers and shutters and you will not escape the reward of this lying promised land your kings have pursued even unto today. Your future is looking dark.

Yet Love has said: "If they would only fear me and keep my commandments."
But people learned to fear God and not do as he desires and terror is upon all the face of the earth. Today is brought to us not by the Father, but because of the "Ways of the kings."

So, did God bring this about or did men?

I find the scriptures full of wisdom that you receive as you try to discern what God desires and what men desire and do in the name of strange gods that serve mammon as recorded by their deeds written in the scriptures...and O yes, even murder as favor in the name of god.

The world needs to turn around, this reality will destroy the earth if left to its own man-made system based and supported by lies and confusion. I have read nothing keepy said that suggests he doesn't know what Jesus teaches, what Jesus was said to have done is another story based upon rumor containing magic and you should always question magic. Turn water into wine? Well, I don't believe in magic. How many barrels, how much in each barrel? Wine coolers maybe? And those that had hidden a little reserve for later, went ahead and added it back?

Christ was dead 3 days and arose and his best friends couldn't recognize him? Even Mary didn't recognize Him until he said one word: "Mary." Didn't recognize the flesh, but that voice was unmistakable when the spirit spoke her name. Who knows what really happened, and what they really saw, that others wrote about and try to explain? That gives me lots of wonder room.

The power of God went through Jesus( acts 2:22) to perform miracles--no magic.
Many false religions argue Jesus was raised in his flesh body. I point out to them, they couldn't recognize Jesus, so it was not his flesh body--not until he showed it to Thomas. He as well appeared behind a locked door--a flesh body cannot do that.
Yes man ruling man is leading to destruction--But God will step in before that occurs--in fact this system is almost done. Revelation has been passing before the worlds eyes, yet few can see it occurring. Gods kingdom is mankinds only hope.

Actually there is no argument--the teachings of Jesus are clear.

Stridently declaring that you are right and I am wrong does not a compelling argument make. Especially when you combine it with ad hominem attacks, gaslighting, gloating like an imp about the hoped-for comeuppance of people your'e supposed to love, run-on sentences and spelling errors (it's "shudder", not "shutter").

But whatever. Do carry on. Folks like you do more than ten of me ever could, to turn people away from your faith.

But of course! It is always crystal clear that the person arguing for the veracity of THEIR faith, is right.
