DS> The one thing God requires is "to believe on The One He Has Sent".
Gr> Why should anybody believe that?
If you choose not to believe it, that is your CHOICE.
Gr> Does free will really exist? Can you prove it? Can you chose to
Gr> believ in islam, right here and right now? You *are* free to choose,
Gr> right?
We make the decisions in life that are solely our responsibility. Whether
t's
in regards to religion, where we live, what we do for a living, etc., we have
to live with the outcomes.
If free will didn't exist, all of us would be "robots", doing the same thing.
God didn't want robots, so He gave us the choice to accept Him or reject Him.
DS> Also, Christians are commanded to "love and pray for our enemies". Most
DS> other faiths want non-believers dead.
Gr> That doesn't mean that they do that. Hitler was a Catholic, yet he did
Gr> not love and pray for his enemies, did he?
Just because one is saved doesn't mean they lose that "sin nature". The
believers won't lose that until either death, or the Rapture of The Church.
Hitler is thought by some to be a prototype of the soon coming Antichrist...
whose regime will make the times of Hitler, Mao, Stalin, etc., pale by
comparison, in the murder of Christians and Jews, who have been constantly
blamed for the world's problems.
