This is true. But there is also something to be said for getting to know your creator, no?

....what? I'm looking at my bible right now and those words are right there. The proceeding verse says:
This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth.
It says plainly, in verse 7 that there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
Post where you are not seeing this said.
What were the earlier posts? If I can answer it I will, it just may take a while. I'm at a convention this week and responding in between seminars and sleep.

Trinity isn't in the bible. That's....yeah
The Jews did not have a concept of a trinity either
Deuteronomy 6:4
Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:

How will we ever really know God though? People are called crazy when they speak like they've conversed with God, so it wouldn't be believed regardless. All I'm saying is whether you call yourself Christian, Muslim, Buddhist, Atheist, just be a better person.

I guess that's where we have to investigate all the so called sacred texts.
The interesting part is that most of the major ones reference, or have their genesis in the bible.

During bible study yesterday the pastor mentioned that in order to be a Christian and enter the Kingdom of Heaven, you have to spread the word and convert hearts. Is this a common belief throughout Christianity? I can get behind learning the word of God, but I don't see myself reaching out trying to convince other people, ie, my family to convert to Christianity.
No, this is not true. To get into the Kingdom of Heaven you must accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior.
But what is true is that the last thing/mission Jesus gave to us is to go and make disciples/spread the word. This is called "The Great Commission" in Christianity.
If you truly love Jesus, then you love everything he did ,everything he loves, and will obey everything he said.

Chill with the insults. Even if you don't believe a god I doubt you'd wanna live in a world where people are ignorantly criticized for their beliefs

As much as any other species that relies on gravity, oxygen, and the other species on earth, yes.
The more educated a person is, the more they realize that. We are not an alien species visiting someone else's home.
I know I sound like some ridiculous, free-loving tree hugger, and I remember when I used to hear people talk like me and I would write them off as.free-loving, ridiculous tree huggers.

It's 104 pages with the same judgmental, google scriptures rhetoric.
And spare with me the "I'd doubt you...blah blah"
THAT IS THE WORLD WE LIVE IN...want to know who IS THE MOST CRITICAL? Christians.
DurrtyRaspberry is insulting all of our intelligences with his condescending responses.

I've read about Jesus probably about as much as any Christian in here. The difference between you guys and myself is that it doesn't matter to me if Jesus existed. His story of love and compassion is one for the ages and something I will always embrace.
2 questions id really appreciate if they were answered:
1. Where is the kingdom of heaven?
2. Why is it you guys think there is so many stories that predate Christ with similairities? I'm not trying to prove or disprove anything with this question. Just genuinely curious on y'all's perspective.
