Explain this, humankind

Well, Iron Man was crucified for our sins.
As was James T. Kirk.

It’s so interesting to see reactions of horror triggered by a mention of kindness suddenly putting one’s own actions into perspective.

The rapture is unbiblical anyway. None of this really comes from the actual text - it’s squinting and connecting random unconnected Bible verses.
-
Why did God create a bespoke Y chromosome just for Jesus? Why couldn’t Jesus have been born female? What would that change?
-
"Miracles" are only compelling to people who already believe.
They're utterly unconvincing to anyone not indoctrinated, as proven by the fact that you don't believe in Hindu, Buddhist, Mormon, or Muslim miracle accounts.
-
Because God is male. Man was created in God's image, Jesus refers to God in heaven as Father, Jesus is a male (He was circumcised) and the Holy Spirit is also Male (as the Holy Spirit impregnated the Virgin Mary)
-
Why is God male? Does God have a Y chromosome? Does God produce sperm? Does God have testes?
Where is your textual support for the trinity?
-
In this scenario, it was with someone who doesn't believe.
And even then, if a dude performed a miracle in front of you like rising from the dead, wouldn't you believe him?
I don't believe in Hindu, Buddhist, Mormon or Muslim miracle accounts as I cannot find any compelling ones. I don't believe in Islam because it completely contradicts the Bible whilst claiming the Bible is a correct revelation from God, and I don't believe in white islam/mormonism because it hinges on one dude who was a known liar and con artist. Both of these prophets also conveniently lifted the polygamy rule. Hinduism claims Jesus is divine but just another way, while Jesus said He is the only way, and Buddhism claims Jesus was a good teacher and Bodhisvatta when Jesus Himself claimed to be God.
If you can find me compelling islamic, mormon, buddhist or hindu miracles, I'll consider it.
-
You missed the whole point.
Yours aren't compelling either, you've just been indoctrinated otherwise.
If someone "raised from the dead" in front of me I'd need stacks and stacks of evidence to validate it, not merely a narrative from two thousand years ago where the author had an agenda to convince people that the laws of nature briefly stopped in a time when everyone believed in magic.
What do you have other than stories written a generation after the purported events by four anonymous authors that contradict in major story-breaking ways?
-
There are no "story-breaking" contradictions. The contradiction here is you claiming the authors had an agenda, but then they all contradicted. Which one is it?
And what else could I have? Should I expect there to be a 2000 year old VHS tape lying about?
Or should I be reasonable about it and expect an abnormal amount of written accounts for a society where paper or writing wasn't cheap in which most notable people like kings and such have 1 or 2 accounts about them written centuries later, or archaeological evidence and writings from people who lived closer to the time and believed in the events?
-
Iron Man had the best last words of the three.

Inverse zombie. Living people eat his flesh.

Our world if Ea-nasir had sold good copper:
-
Matthew 28:19
Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
Name is singular, and He is equating the Son and the Holy Spirit to the Father who is clearly God. Jesus also claims to be God numerous times.
-
He forgives us if we come to Him
-
Might also depend - were these aliens created also in God's image? Do they have original sin?
-
We're not talking about the rapture, we're talking about the second coming.
The rapture is the unbiblical doctrine that all of the people who are saved will just disappear and the rest will be left behind.
-
Is this an actual theological position or did you just make it up
-
Apart from whether or not The Holy Spirit proceeds from the son as well as The Father, opinion doesn't differ and all Christians agree on the triune God.
