Hey Scardy,
Jesus is calling you man. Doubt no more. Your belief system is great but it wont save you. Only believe what Jesus did for you and the free gift of salvation.
Romans 10:9
9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.[/quote]
id be violating the honor thy mother commandment. my extremely jewish mother would never recover if i went jesusy. literally. it would kill her.
it would be more disrespectful to her than crapping on my dads grave.
also, keep in mind ive been programmed since birth to believe the christians are out to fuck with us, which is, well, historically true, and even now, with judaism fashionable amongst evangelicals, i still actually physically recoil and feel slightly sickened just by the word jesus. when someone says jesus, basically i hear, fucking disgusting jew.
and i think theres still a small chance the christians turn on the jews, if the tide turns, judt like everybody thonks the muslims suck. same reason id never trust a german or a german car. my mom.
so there is no way in hell its even possible for me to accept jesus. to me, he seems threatening, like a klansman robe. the odds of me beconing a trump supporter are at least 500x more likely than me accepting jesus as my savior.
even if jesus came to my house personally and did a cool miracle id be like.
sorry dude, i get it.. youre all powerful, and i loved your work in the new tedtament, big fan, , but…cmon…you get it…my moms…i cant do that to her.
jesusd’d be like, yeah. i get it, man, jews are definitely weird.
and im like, tell me about it.
and hes like, takes one to know one. and we laugh. and hes like man you have nice digs.
and im like, we bought at the bottom of the market.
and jesus is like, well, you shouldnt worry so much about money dude, its just like paper.
and im like i know i know.
and hes like, you sure you cant do the christian thing?
and im like, i try to be decent. you know me man, you made me. youd have had a better chance walking in to bin ladens mosque and talking him out of the whole allah thing over bacon n eggs.
and hes laughing, were both laughing. and hes like i know. i know everything. i get it. its not in the cards..
and im like, yeah, being a jesus guy…just cant. like muslim. couldnt do it. same difference. im so glad you get it. you totally get me
and hes like, well, no prob. im not going to rewire you just so you can relax while saying my name and not have an anxiety attack when you see a cross. see ya round.
. and he disappears in thin air.
and id be like, wow, what a chill bro. i believe . . that he is a cool dude.
but i still, even then , after the miracle and so on, would be like, what other layer to reality exists under that
and what is this jesus guys game? and why is dying such a big sacrifice? people die all day long for others. shit i forgot to ask him. jesus? i had a couple more questions.
and jesus is in heaven like, i guess hes an ok guy, but i wish he would shut up with the questions. im patient but i could not take this guy for all eternity. how does his wife stand it. shes a saint…
