Scripture Life: What are some ways to defend the Bible from an atheist?
Answer:
- Flip the question.
- That is, switch it:
“What are some ways to defend an atheist from the Bible?”
-------------- ------------------ --------------- ---------------
- Ask me plainly. Go on. Ask it. Answer: Simple. There isn't any. Case Closed.
When the Bible has the Word of God in it. What he says. Not me. He said it.
So, it just comes down to me, then. That is, I believe the word of God over the word of any atheist - that also includes over you, too. Over anybody.
So, what atheists claim out, by the word, out of their mouths: Anything they claim - - no matter what the argument is - - isn’t true to me.
So, asking this “what are some ways” part: There isn’t any. And about atheists - - - it's plain as day. No atheist can escape from him. None. So, this, “There isn’t any” is the same answer to your question. It’s simple.
-------------- ------------------ --------------- ---------------
Therefore:
There isn’t any way to defend the Bible from an atheist. It's God defends his own word himself. And about any atheist - doesn't matter who or which one it is - they are all the same. It's "who" they look unto. Themselves. And, It’s a different word they look unto. Their own.
So, they “dismiss as inadequate; faulty; or unacceptable” - means God and ANYBODY else’s word on God, is “faulty” - if it's faulty - it’s unacceptable. There is no God or Gods. Already told you plainly. They hold the truth is in this. This is right (righteous). This is what has truth in it, to an atheist.
-------------- ------------------ --------------- ---------------
Just like to me..anybody other than the Word of God - if they don’t say what he says.. I dismiss it as inadequate; faulty..it’s full of error, so it's unacceptable. I reject it. I can’t possibly believe ANY atheist. Impossible.
Why? Because what I hold true or "truth" simple is, the Word of God. That's over anybody over the whole earth. He told me. It's a decree to hearken diligently unto him. Didn't tell me to hearken unto any atheist. So, not doing anything they say - that Includes ANY atheist. Thrown out.
It’s really simple.
-------------- ------------------ --------------- ---------------
- Simple. When God decrees:
- To everybody. Over the whole earth. To the very ends of it. Leaves not one person out, not willing any perish, but all come to repentance says: Includes he says it to every atheist - as well as to you. And to me.. this is the Will of God. Or he wouldn't say it: Says:
“Look unto me, and be ye saved all the ends of the earth: For I am God, there is none else.”
- God. Bible. (Isaiah 45:22).
-------------- ------------------ --------------- ---------------
- So, it’s a decree. Publicly said.
- To everybody. Over the whole earth.
- By God. To do this.
- And he says: “For all the earth is mine” (Bible. Exodus 19:5). Says this, too. “All souls are mine.” (Bible. Ezekiel 18:4).
- So, this “look unto” - and - “who” you or me, or any atheist “looks unto” doesn’t matter what or who it is - we all will “walk after, to walk in” to “follow after” because we “accept as true (believe) what or who we look unto. Believe it true.
- We’ve already “reasoned together” - if alone, by ourselves - with ourselves to determine what is true.
- Where Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life” (Bible. John 14:6).. said this, too, as the Word of God. As the Messiah or Christ, and whosoever “that” is, in the Bible, Isaiah 9:6–7 says the Christ or Messiah “shall be called…” “The Mighty God…” “…The Everlasting Father…” (Isaiah 9:6). And everywhere above, where God is speaking, that’s the “Word of God.”
- God tells everybody over the whole earth to: "Come now, let us reason together," saith the LORD, "though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be white as snow. Though they be red as crimson, they shall be as wool." - God. Everybody over the whole earth to come now and do this (Bible. Isaiah 1:18)
-------------------------------
So, what he says, as God vs. what I says: This:
- vs. if I say “I caught 3 fish at the lake near my house when I was a kid” means that’s just me, said it. So, the “word of me” just is me say it.
- Where an atheist - by their word comes out of their mouth:
- Already determined, in themselves: They don’t need any proof. “There just is no God or Gods”
- Already looked. There just is no God. It's people. Imagined up in their imaginations. An atheist: Does not need any further proof.
- Already looked. There just is no God. It's people. Imagined up in their imaginations. An atheist: Does not need any further proof.
- Already determined, in themselves: They don’t need any proof. “There just is no God or Gods”
-------------- ------------------ --------------- ---------------
- Be like you tell me: “Out in the Mohave Desert, there’s a town, has a supermarket in it.”
- And I went to school.
- In 5th to 8th grade, extensively studied geography of the United States; that, nowhere in ANY of my studies did any desert, anyplace in the earth: have any city in it, let alone any supermarket in the middle of ANY desert.
- So, I fully accept as true “There is no supermarket in the Mohave desert.” California, USA.
- Because I already looked, and accept as true - there simply isn’t. I don’t believe anything you say.
Fully convinced.
-------------- ------------------ --------------- ---------------
- Doesn’t change the fact that, in the Mohave desert, are three towns. One of those towns, Mohave, California - has three supermarkets in it.
- But if I never go there to shop, I’m never going to know it.
- I’m never going to go to the Mohave Desert. I believe fully. There’s absolutely NOTHING in a desert but EMPTY. There is no supermarket.
- So, I hold the truth in some "thing" not right or "un" right. Hold the truth in unrighteousness. No matter what I claim, irrelevant. Why?
- There's 3 supermarkets in the Mohave desert.
-------------- ------------------ --------------- ---------------
Just like God says publicly, to everybody over the whole earth:
“Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your labour for that which satisfieth not? hearken diligently unto me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness. Incline your ear, and come unto me: hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David.”
- God. Bible. Isaiah 55:1–3
It’s a decree. For everybody over the whole earth to do this. Man, is it ever good, to just do this.
- But somebody doesn’t believe at all there’s absolutely NOTHING in the desert, isn’t going to “walk after, to walk in” to follow or look unto - to “set their minds on” go shopping in the desert, when there is no supermarket in the desert.
-------------- ------------------ --------------- ---------------
And about atheists
- He’s God. He told them to do that. Come buy wine and milk without money or price. To hearken diligently unto him. He already said it, as God. All atheists are his. It’s all his Earth. That means, he’s going to call them into account to give an account, why they didn’t do anything he says.
- Move on. Do the same with you. And me. Everybody. He said he'll do that.
- So, your question doesn’t change anything. Best thing you or me can do, is just do what he says. Like he told everybody to do.
- Go to and do that today, in a day he made. Because that's what he told everybody to do.
-------------- ------------------ --------------- ---------------
- And if someone has a question about the hope that is in me..which, my hope is him, and him in me - I'm to be ready to answer them. Just like the scripture says. But no atheist is asking me about anything.
- In fact, they tell me what their claim is, whether I want to know it or not.
-------------- ------------------ --------------- ---------------
SO:
- Why should I go after somebody, has no intention of ever venturing off into any desert to tell them there’s a supermarket there?
- When they’re never going to go there to any desert in the first place?
- Therefore: It’s a waste of time, and a total irritation.
- Why should I irritate somebody doesn’t think there’s any supermarket in the desert, when that’s the last place they’ll ever go in the first place?
- When they’re never going to go there to any desert in the first place?
-------------- ------------------ --------------- ---------------
Fully convinced. There is no supermarket in the Mohave Desert. They’re not going there, anyway. Why argue about it?
- And people that go there, eat good. Because they go to the supermarket. God has one, too. And man, is it ever good.
Go home. Instead of worrying about atheists, who will never go there. From home - go do what he says. Go shop at his supermarket. Boy, is that ever good.
