Our nature is to find excuses why we don't have to keep the commandments. Of course if you claim to be Atheist that is a great excuse to basicly do what ever feels good to you.

Follow these tenets and live like jesus or whoever or we will kill you! It seems like its time to realize your way is the wrong way and that some guy in the sky reward system is a complete and utter failure@ Mottos and phrases and scripture just seem to aggravate the other guy enough to start a fight and kill people! There has to be a better way!
How can you make a statement like this. You are a so call Atheist. You don't know what I believe. You do not know what I know. You have not seen the True Gospel work in peoples lives like I have. You do not know where you came from before this life. Why you are here, the purpose of life and where you are going after you die. I don't Believe what the Catholic or Protestant churches teach. There are save two churches only. One is the church of the lamb of God and the other is the church of the Devil. I belong to the True Church of Jesus Christ. It contains the truthes necessary to gain eternal salvation. It contains the Truthes about the Plan of Salvation. It contains the truthes that are necessary for us to be truly Happy in this life. So, excuse me but, you don't know what you are talking about. The words to the saying has a much deeper meaning that encompasses an eternal plan for man to be come like God. We are His children, because we are involved with him, we have the potential to evolve to become like him. If an Acorn falls from a giant Oak Tree and sprouts, a weed doesn't grow from that. From the Acorn a same Oak Tree will be gin to grow. That small Oak Tree has the potentail to grow into a Giant Oak tree. Because it is involved with the Giant Oak Tree it can evolve to become like it. The same thing applies to us. We are God's Children. He loves us and has provided a plane whereby we can become like Him. It is an Eternal Plan that can bring much happiness into the lives of those who choose to follow it. There is one who teaches a false plan of happiness. He is called Satan of Lucifer. He is the Great Deceiver. He would teach you that there in no God. Therefore there is no need to strive to become like him and you are lead away and become captive to him. What do you choose? Eternal Life which is the kind of life that God Lives or Eternal Damnation with Satan and his followers. Tell me of one instance ever when people are truly following the words and example of Jesus Christ that they have not been at peace. The formula for world peace is contained in the words below. Can you deny it?
How could the Father tell the world of love and tenderness?
He sent his Son, a newborn babe, with peace and holiness.
How could the Father show the world the pathway we should go?
He sent his Son to walk with men on earth that we may know.
How could the Father tell the world of sacrifice, of death?
He sent his Son to die for us and rise with living breath.
What does the Father ask of us?
What do the scriptures say?
Have faith, have hope, live like his Son,
Help others on their way.
What does he ask?
Live like his Son.
