I thought this one was good to add for the people who think the OT is from a different God than the NT
The same divine titles given to Yahweh in the OT are applied to Jesus in the NT. "I AM" is one divine title which God uses in the OT. The Jewish prophets all tell us that Messiah/Christ is eternal, not a created being. Jesus is eternal. God said in the OT that He would descend down from heaven and dwell among His people. "For behold, the Lord is coming out of His place; He will come down from heaven and tread on the high places of the earth" Micah 1:3 "The word(Jesus)became flesh and dwelt among us" John 1:14 God clothed Himself in human flesh in the person of Christ. "God is light; and in Him there is no darkness at all" 1 John 1:5 "I am the light of the world" Jesus in John 8:12
"I tell you the truth" before Abraham was born I AM. John 8:58. Through out the gospel of John we clearly see that Jesus used this title ---- I AM. ----------- At the beginning of his many statements. --WHY? Right after Jesus stated this, the Jews picked up stones to throw at him.-- Why? The Jews answered him, "We are not going to stone you for a good work but for blasphemy, because you, a mere man, are making yourself God!" John 10:33 Here, from Jesus's own WORDS we see that JESUS, was claiming to be God. Jesus spoke these same words - I AM,- in the old Testament and used the same words - I AM, - in the new testament. Jesus was telling the Jews that this was his name, then, now, and for ever. The Jews clearly understood that Jesus was claming to be God, the same person at Mount Sinai, when he said to Moses I AM that I AM.
JESUS, WHO IS GOD, said to Moses, "I AM WHO I AM,'' this is what you are to say to the Israelites: 'I AM has sent me to you.'" That is why I told you that you will die in your sins, for unless you believe that I AM, you will die in your sins." John 8:24

Never claimed to be an atheist but call Gods imaginary, and say that those who talk about them are imbeciles. Maybe I should call you an anti-theist, but that just shows how bias you are. I am at least open minded and here to have honest conversation.
You might realize that the TPTB are Luciferian, and a lot of the conspiracy theories tie in with christian prophecies. So this place actually seems like a great place.
Just because you have never taken the time to prove the existence of a Creator doesn't mean one cannot do it with a bit of philosophy.
No where in there does it say bash each others religion with reckless abandon, nor does it say spew out hate.
This section of BTS is ... ''one of those personal things people might want to chat about.''
In other words this is a nice section for people to share personal religious events, experiences and such like.
