That's E X A C T L Y what Jesus Christ came to do, However, He still gives us the Freewill to choose whether we want the forgiveness or if we want to pay for our sins ourselves. Unfortunately, by default, we reject salvation until the time that we admit we are a sinner, turn to Jesus Christ and accept Him, believing that He died on the cross and rose from the dead to pay for our sins. If God forced us by default to serve Him, then that would be percieved as forcing people to serve Him. I would love for everyone to be saved, even those who hate me here. I mean that. | |

| All but one of those people were born after the crucifixion of Jesus. How can they possibly be considered eyewitness accounts? The one that isn't (Seneca) is an account of Nero's treatment of early Christians, not an eyewitness account of Jesus. |

If you celebrate Christmas, you're going to Hell, Mr. Frodo. There is no evidence, neither in the Bible or outside it that the apostles themselves celebrated the birth of Yeshua, nor did He ever command the disciples to do so. Christmas, like Easter, was adopted by the early Church to attract pagan converts. And about Easter: the entire point of having the Crucifixion occur when it did was because God intended it as a PASSOVER sacrifice. A real disciple celebrates that sacrifice by taking Communion at Passover. Good Friday is nonsense. Pro-tip: Twice a year, the Jewish calendar has a week with two Sabbaths. Those weeks are the week that Passover and the Day of Atonement fall on. I'm not making it up, check Exodus. This means that the Crucifixion took place mid-week. Count three nights and three days starting Wednesday at sunset, for Judaism counts time from sunset to sunset and you get Saturday at sunset. If the resurrection occurred, it was no earlier than that. Saturday, after the weekly Sabbath had passed. Simple math destroys the concept of Good Friday. Jesus said nothing about exempting the disciples from observing the appointed feast day. In fact, the verses quoted above prove the opposite is true. He Himself, as a Jew, observed them- the original feast days as laid out in the Torah. Also: Quote:

There is ample evidence for numerous local/regional floods (since Man normally lives near water, it's perfectly reasonable) and ancient man had a very limited view on the size of the earth. Thus, myths were created. But no, there was no global flood. Sediment and fossil evidence (not to mention plain old common sense) are all we need to rebut the idea. | |

| So the people who don't know anything about Jesus Christ are going to hell by default. Nice god you've got there.
