There are alot of reasons why the world rejects Jesus Christ. It has to deal with what a person's beliefs are, religion, culture and so on. I would say that it is a hard thing to see this pleasurable world, with all its glamour and tempting temptations and leave it out to serve someone that they haven't even seen. It is so sad but it is a reality, they think that what they see every day around them is real, but what is unseen is more real that what is seen. Apparently, when they die they can take all their priced possesions and victory awards with them, but they fail to realize the biggest prize they are lossing out on is the prize of eternal life in heaven with a GOD, a living GOD that in a few seconds spoke all what they have now into being. But as the word says, all men shall bow their knees and lift their voices and proclaim that Jesus Christ is LORD when HE returns, if they want to or not. Jesus rules.
Some people reject Christianity because it truthfully doesn't appeal to them. Saying that they are sinners however, is crossing the line. some people don't "accept Jesus Christ as their lord and savior" because they honestly don't see
1) how he's a savior of theirs specifically
2) aren't even sure he existed and if he did it is unproven that he's the "son of god"
and
3) they might just be of a different faith as Buddhism, Judaism, or even Islam.
if your question is why people bash Christianity i think it's because of the ultra-radicals who "speak or act for god."
Granted, everyone has a problem- every religion can and will have radicals that take things too far. But through history Christianity, or more so, the Catholic Church has had more documented instances.
In a world where humanistic views are becoming more prevalent, people do not like being told what they need to be saved, that some of their decisions in life are sinful, and that they need forgiveness. They do not like to commit to the belief that Jesus is the only way to reach God. Because they already have these presuppositions about Christianity, it may be hard to convince them otherwise. In order to be effective in the Christian faith, you must know what other religions and philosophies believe.
If you read all the passages where Jesus speaks you will notice that he often says most humans reject the things of the Spirit, God, the Kingdom of God and righteousness. The sinful human creature does not love holiness or light. The human creature loves darkness and sin. Jesus was very direct in saying that few would chose the Kingdom of God and Him and eternal life. He came for all but not all will receive him. It is heartbreaking but we still have to obey his command to preach the Gospel to the entire world even when many will reject him. Satan has human heavily deceived while he "rules" the world but one day when Jesus returns that deception will lifted from their eyes. Everyone will have to bow to him and confess that he is the almighty God who is magnificent.
People who reject the Christian gospel do not reject morality or the rule of law. Usually they make an informed decision based on:
pork
Primarily, the Jesus Christ is the Messiah.
Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the "Mormon" church) reject the Pope because they aren't Catholic. Only Catholics follow the Pope.
A rather odd question but if he dies suddenly, in an accident for instance, then yes he could.
World Conference - Community of Christ - was created in 1830.
Jesus was falsely charged with sedition against Caesar. (Luke 23:2; John 19:12)
why not? independetly of the "church" , Christ died for all tribes, tongues, nations, peoples.; just be careful to what kinds of "doctrines" you get involved. If it is not biblical or its in the word of God, let it be cursed--------reject it.
Their is many theories and evidence proving Columbus wasn't the first person to land in the new world from the old world and so we reject Columbus day as a federal holiday.
Muslims reject the Trinity, because they cannot accept the fact that God Incarnated Himself as Jesus Christ.
Not all of the people in it. But church attendance is falling.
Verse 1: I don't possess - houses or lands, - fine clothes or jewelry, Sorrows and cares - in this old world - my lot seems to be. But I have a Christ, - who paid the price - way back on Calvary, And Christ is all, - all in all - in this world to me. Chorus: Yes, Christ is all, - He's everything to me Yes, Christ is all, - He rules the land and sea. Yes, Christ is all - without Him nothing could be. Christ is all - all in all - this world to me. Verse 2: There are some folk - who look and long - for this world's riches, There are some folk - who look for power, - po-si-tion, too. But I have a Christ - all in my life, - this makes me happy. For Christ is all, - all and all - this world to me. Verse 3: Yes, Christ is all, - means more to me - than this worlds' riches, He is my sight, - my guiding light - through pathless seas. Yes, it's mighty nice - to own a Christ - who will my friend be. Yes, Christ is all, - all and all - this world to me.
According to the book of John, Christ created the world.
