believer
jesus is an englishwrd...in hebrew its yeshua..meansimmanuel..englishwsnt popular at thttym

no. yeshua means salvation, immanuel means god is with us. those are different names with different meanings.
believer
yes in mathew chapter 1..
angel of god appeared to joseph saying" she(mary) will bear a son and u shall call his name jesus for he will save his people frm sins
so here cms salvation
atheist
ok, but what about immanuel?
believer
ya but immanuelnt his worldyname..justgavng meaning that GOD came as a man and is with us
atheist
so whatever doesn't fit into what you already believe is just an allegory?
believer
ths is jusst a begining..ok let me ask u one thing??
atheist
sure.
go ahead.
believer
if i say jesusws real and hwws born 2013 yrsago..will u reject??
atheist
i would have to ask you what makes you think he was real, and who is this jesus?
believer
me and you nw living in 2013 AD
right??
after death of jesus...ths itself says it
hews real
atheist
that's right. that is the number we decided to use to count the years. (by the way it's a completely different year in the jewish calendar)
believer
ya i knw..thnjesus at tyms with disciples said he will be put to death by the jews..and same happend..if u have doubt go check that place..its somewhere near to u i think
andthn he said he will be put to death but i will rose again on the 3rd day
same happened
atheist
if your proof that he existed is that some people use his supposed death to count years than i can use the jewish calendar to disprove him...
that's not very convincing...
believer
ntcalender..im taking about his birth place and place where he has buried..its there in isaralna..
atheist
you mean like new yourk city is proof of the existance of spiderman?
believer
u taking ths as funny
hmm..
atheist
it is kinda funny
believer
birth place ..place of death is there in israel right now...
ucant reject tht
atheist
i don't need to reject such trivial things. there is also a city called new york, it's still not a proof for spiderman.
and there are woods, that doesn't mean little red riding hood is real.
believer
dnt compare jesus with tht spider thing
atheist
why not?
spiderman is a hero.
believer
jesus is a super hero
hes the king of israel
atheist
lol. we don't mind about rank here. it doesn't matter who's the better hero.
believer
hoof...hw can i make ths little woman understand..
atheist
i don't know. try harder, i guess...
believer
problem is imnt very good in english..thts y imnt able to crush u..
atheist
why would you want to crush me? i thought we were friends...
believer
hehe....yaya..friends..justjokingggg
whtstymthernw
?
atheist
17:25
believer
ohkkk..hmm...see religion is man made...
jesus is the only way to heaven..
just keep tht in mind
atheist
if religion is man made doesn't it make jesus man made?
believer
nops..never..
atheist
but isn't he a part of the religion?
believer
in his grave its written" hes not here"... only his...all other mighty men died and their body is in the grave
atheist
there were a lot of grave robbers at the time.
believer
haha..never
uknw at the end tyms of jesus....all his disciples left him..they ran..
onlyjesus
left
atheist
he left? where did he go?
believer
means he alone when jews and soilders captured him
atheist
oh, well sucks to be him.
believer
hmm....so then they put him to death..
christians were very feww..
atheist
why?
believer
they were afraid to go out becoz romans and jews were trying to punish thm all at thttym
atheist
why? what did they do?
believer
some statement jesus said wsntdigestable to jews..so they all became against himm..
so they too hate his disciples
atheist
oh, i see. he was a threat tothem.
believer
nonono..u misunderstood..
atheist
than explain it to me.
believer
so her..jesuswsburied..andjews asked roman empires to gave them many soilders to place thm outside the grave
atheist
why? he was already dead.
believer
..bcoz they ttoo heard jesus saying on the 3rd day he will rose..butjews though "sometimes his disciples will take away his body and show the world tht he is risen "
understood?
atheist
that's kind of funny. did they really think his disciples can fool people into believing his corpse is alive again?
believer
yajews thought lyktht" if disciples take his corpse and buried somewher and they may say to otheresththws taken up to heaven or smthng
atheist
oh. i see now. and why did the romans care about all of this?
believer
here is the point..
atthttyn romans were ruling the world..roman empire..
atheist
yes. why would they care about a dispute between some jews?
believer
see as they were ruling the authority to punish or to kill someone belongs to them
sojewstukjesus to them
atheist
yes. and i bet they had roman rules. didjesus break the rules?
believer
crusifixionws a roman rule
atheist
no. crusifixion was a roman punishment. not a rule.
believer
soryya...punishment
atheist
but why would they punish him? did he break a rule?
believer
jesusdidnt break any roman rule..
yaa..thts the point..
atheist
than why would the roman punish him?
believer
evenpilate (ruler) said i didnt see any offence agaistths man
atheist
so why did he punish him?
believer
becausejews around were shouting crucify him crusify him.....
atheist
why would the romans care what the jews were shouting?
believer
sohepilate pronounced sentence that jews demand be granted
atheist
why?
believer
jews brought him and said " ths man making himself christ and king"
atheist
so? was it against roman law?
believer
nojews said it was against theri law..
atheist
why would the romans care about jewish law?
believer
jerusalemws under the roman empire na..
sojews want jesus to put to death..
atheist
so, why would the romans care about jewish law?
believer
so they did their maximum bu accusing jesus in frnt of roman empire pilate
atheist
but they accused him of breaking jewish law. why would the romans care about jewish law?
believer
they have to..bcozjewish colony was governed by pilate..
so a wide conflit should be ceased na
?
slept???
atheist
i'll help you there a bit. lets say you are a judge in a country that has it's own law. a bunch of people come to you and say that a man has committed a crime. you ask them what the crime is and it turns out that by your laws this isn't a crime. the people (that has citizenship in your country) then say that they know it's not a crime by the country's laws, but they believe it is a crime and want to punish the man anyway. would you punish an innocent man because some people believe he should be punished?
believer
no...never..
atheist
so why would a roman judge punish an innocent man?
believer
yaya..thts an awesome question ...
he came to earth to die..
innocent blood killed by romans through jews for the salvation of the world
..
atheist
that is not a reason for a judge to punish a man. i'm looking for the motive of the romans...
believer
ya..theyal are a cruel motive people
atheist
so an entire country is just cruel and punishes it's citizens for no reason at all?
believer
noooo..
you making ths funny
atheist
what is the reason then?
believer
father(yahweh) wants his son to sacrifice fr the wrld
son is jesus..
it happened...
atheist
soyahweh told the romans to kill jesus?
believer
hoof..tired
jst understand ths simple thing..
atheist
ok. why don't you ask somebody else and come back to me. you can print out this conversation and talk about it with whoever you think myght have an answer.
believer
jews are the chosen people of go
d
atheist
so you say.
believer
others are gentiles..
so me you ...are gentiles
atheist
theirdefenition. yes.
so?
believer
if we belive in jesus the son of god..we will be called as sons and daughters of god
atheist
i don't believe in a god.
believer
ya...do u knw y u dontbelive in god??
atheist
i have no reason to believe in a god.
believer
coz..u have money,home job..gudfamily..happy..so no need of god is ths right??
atheist

atheist
i don't know. thatdepedns an what will it mean to live after death.
believer

atheist
i've heard people claim that.
believer
so to save frm hell jesus came to the world..but only if u believe in him you will get tht eternal lyf..otherwise you will perish
..
atheist
i don't believe in heaven nor hell.
believer
ya....becoz no one who is died came to and said tht it is real na??
atheist
that is one reason. also because i don't see any reason for it.
believer
yaa...people search fr reasons..
idntwnt u to be areligious or somethng..i just want u to know what is true...
soil pray fr you frm today
