the poison of christianity

-Removed-

So in other words not just that moment but also into the future.

-Removed-

So Jesus could be saying that being raised on the cross is the culmination of his time on earth, then on judgment day all people will literally be summoned to him.

The dead view him as poisonous. He is the aroma of death.

It could also mean the discipkes would go out into the world letting all men know of Jesus.

-Removed-

In a world of people, he saved a few that he bumped into. Everyone else will go to hell. You don't see how weak and pathetic the jesus story is. The poison, dive, is that good people who don't buy into ancient myths are shunned by true believers. You are a hateful bunch pretending to be good.

Towards the end of the video Matt explains the poison very clearly. He is completely correct about this.

The reason that I am a Christian is because God's Holy spirit sealed me for the day of redemption before the foundations of this world through Jesus. And that glorifies God.

Your parents sir both had God given freewill. If your father had arbitrarily chosen 'not' to go out on the evening he was to meet your mother (perhaps to watch a movie instead) you, as a consequence, wouldn't have been born or ever existed. Bearing this in mind, how was the Holy spirit aware that you would even exist, before the foundations of this world, in order to seal you for redemption?

To believes no free will and God decreed everything. As some interpret Romans nine.

or a God saw all of mankind all at once and those that accepted him with free will he gave the Holy Spirit to them.

How do you know God didn't put it on people's hearts to make love certain times to have certain children. Because people are knit together by God in their mothers womb and God puts people in office at such times as these like Donald Trump for example. Someone who should not have won the presidency but God made it happen period end of story.

What is Jesus' response when a follower asks if he can bury his father first?

Let the dead bury the dead follow me. I do not see how that applies,

In a world of people He saved a few He bumped into, but through the Spirit of God the rest
can bump into Him.
