If this is your first time checking out a debate, here are some quick tips to help get you started:
Arguments with the highest score are displayed first.
Argument replies (both in favor and in opposition) are displayed below the original argument.
To follow along, you may find it helpful to show and hide the replies displayed below each argument.
To vote for an argument, use these icons:
You have the power to cast exactly one vote (either up or down) for each argument.
Once you vote, the icon will become grayed out and the argument's score will change.
Yes, you can change your vote.
Debate scores, side scores and tag scores are automatically calculated by an algorithm that primarily takes argument scores into account.
All scores are updated in real-time.

If you would like to address an existing argument, use the Support and Dispute link within that argument to create a new reply.
Of course Jesus is the only God, their can only be one God who created all things, including things which are not God but may fraudulently be called God or god.

Sorry, I don't believe in God anymore. I was raised as an Anglican back in the UK, but since I gathered me wits as a young lad and learned that religion was practically total shite, I became an agnostic. Sure, there might be some sort of God, who knows? Nobody here that's for bloody sure, but if there is a God I for sure hope it isn't somebody as lame and passive as Yeshua, or as mean and homicidal as his Pappy. I'd prefer me a God like one of them Greek chaps, like a Bacchus, maybe, since I love me wine and ale. An' there better be some football matches and pubs in Heaven or else I opt for that other place down South o' there.
You're on your way to Hell and there will be nothing good there to indicate that God loves you as good things here do show. You deny God gives all good things while you enjoy the things God gives you, you want a reality void of God's goodness and if God were not reluctant to give you the reality you want you would be burning in Hell now.
To say you prefer Hell over Heaven is the stupidest thing a person can say and it proves only one thing...that you are a proud and brave fool who loves his sin more than life.
Yeshua (Jesus) is the God for all people .... however, all people are not for Jesus
Jesus: Enter through the narrow gate .. for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction .. and there are many who enter through it .. for the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life .. and there are few who find it
I'd recommend that you seek God's mercy so you don't have to pay for your sin in Hell forever, but you are a fool and will go your own way against God and end up in Hell where sin belongs.
If you wake up in Hell, you will remember that you were warned and you will remember that you were told of God's offer of pardon through the atoning blood of His Son who He gave for you as the propitiation for your sins so you can be reconciled with God and have eternal life in Jesus Christ.
If you really think it's impossible for you to be on your way to Hell, why should it bother you when I say you are on your way to Hell?
No, it doesn't bother me in the sense of unnerving me.
But it's redundant for you to keep saying by now - you should perhaps do that occasionally - and rather boring, especially in the arguments it is basically all you say.
If you wake up in Hell like by all appearances and according to your own words you soon will, you will remember every time you were warned and you will remember that you refused to seek God's mercy and you will then beg for God's mercy and you will not find it, it will be too late as you chose to seal your dying forever having rejected God the Savior who died for you to save you from Hell. The One you are rejecting now will reject you in death as you reject Him who died for you and you will be held forever in the fire of Hell where your evil cannot spread again among those who love God.
If you feel threatened it is because you are guilty and deserve punishment which you are trying to avoid and not owning up to. You're a motor mouthed idiot. Apparently the only answer for you is to wake up in Hell unable to get out of the fire, roasting like a motor mouth marshmallow cursing God saying it's not fair.
If you are a human being, which sometimes I doubt and think that in you I'm talking to a devil, God wants you to have eternal life in reality, you cannot earn a "Don't burn in Hell" card by being religious. You can never make God owe you a pass to avoid punishment for your sin. You are so motor mouthed that you can't be content with your own big mouth and you have to try to put words in my mouth.
You are dying in reality and if you wont repent and believe on the Lord Jesus Christ you will be dying in reality forever in the lake of fire. You sure are an annoying idiot.
God took on the form of a man, Jesus Christ, and died in my place for my sins, He is risen from the dead offering forgiveness to all who repent of their sin and ask God for mercy based on the fact that He paid for their sins with His own blood and they believe Christ is risen from the dead willing and able to forgive all sinners who believe on Him. I believed on Him, confessed my sin, and received Jesus as my Savior, He lives in my now by His Holy Spirit making me a child of God born of His Spirit........I have received God's forgiveness of my sins, I have received the Savior, my sins are all paid for and I'm going to heaven. If you think you don't need to be saved or don't want to be saved and you think I'm going to be in Hell with you, the memory of your evil desire in such an attitude will haunt you in the fire of Hell.
You're about as dumb as a rock. You make up things I never said and then declare I said them, then you argue against your imaginary ideas which exist nowhere but in your own mind. You think your so smart but you prove you are a blooming idiot over and over and over again.
I know God loves me so much that He came down from Heaven in human form and died for my sins, and rose from the dead bodily so that by believing on Him and seeking God's mercy for my sins, I am forgiven by God as I have received Jesus Christ as my Savior. To a person who is on their way to Hell and will not repent of their sins, what I am saying is foolishness. I believe God, you can say whatever you want. You're on your way to Hell.
From Isaiah 53: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him. 3He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not. 4Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. 5But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. 6All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all. 7He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth. 8He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken.
The prophecies foretold of how He would be treated and crucified, the prophets foresaw the Roman Empire and the method of punishment and execution used.
It's just the way things were, Jesus knew what He had to do in giving Himself over to crucifixion. He did it for us, the innocent one took our place......he suffered in everything we can suffer, He showed his empathy and compassion for us by accepting human suffering.......so He knows by experience every problem we face. He went through if for us, showing He can take us through it into eternal life.
He knew before anything was created what it was going to cost Him to save His people from their sins. I suppose this is why God the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost was content through eternity past to enjoy Himself as God with nobody or nothing else around Him. He knew when He created beings with powers of reason and creativity like His own that some of them would turn against Him and He would have to imprison them and die for their sins to justify forgiving them.
As Moses lifted up a serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of Man be lifted up.
The Old Testament is Jesus Christ concealed, the New Testament is Jesus Christ revealed.
There is also a prophecy "not one of His bones is broken".
And, "they have pierced my hands and my feet".
Crucifixion was the method of execution in the Roman Empire. The Jews were subjects of the Roman Empire when the Messiah came. It's all prophesied and Jesus fulfilled the prophecies. It had to be that way because that's the way it is, and we are to be thankful for what He did, for how He keeps His word, and how He keeps us safe from eternal condemnation.
