Jesus is hard to follow because He has extremely high moral standards.
Muhammad is easy to follow because he had low moral standards and he was a Sex Award Winner (SAW) child rapist.


AntiChristian:
I don't think Jesus can't be followed without additions and subtraction to what's in the Bible.

It is not easy keeping up to everything in the bible ...... We are humans therefore, our nature comes first.
Everything in your Bible is not Jesus Christ. undecided

Yahweh got 16 virgins from war booty in Numbers 31: 40.

If someone types this about your Allah you will bring out sword and knife to kill.

We are not violent. Jesus did not teach us so.
If you have no meaningful contribution why not read comments and keep it moving?

You are neither Muslim or Christian.

You won't create a thread about what you believe or why you don't believe in anything yet you are ready to jump on threads and disrespect other people's religion?

Liberals and religion agnostics don't think this way. Look inside you and ask yourself if disrespecting other people's religion brings any fulfillment

Show us where sexual intercourse is mentioned in Numbers 31:40, otherwise you will end up in the same place where muhammad Sex Award Winner (SAW) parents currently find themselves! grin

Why being particular about virgin aka women that has never laid with men?

And the warriors had their share. What will they do with the virgins after killing the old women?

I still wonder how the virginity test was carried out.

Because many dislike fast and praying grin

But seriously, many Christians don't like fasting to grow spiritually. The fastest way to be like Jesus is to fast and pray.

Virgin in the Bible sometimes meant infants who were females, simply because it is presumed that infants cannot be sexually active.

But you have failed to answer my question: Where is sexual intercourse mentioned anywhere in Numbers 31: 40?
Or do you want to end up in the same place as Sex Award Winner's parents?

Firstly, you need to forgive yourself and do not despise the gathering of the brethren to help you erase your past gradually and study to show thyself approve, keep reading the word of God, listen to edifying Christian songs and share with brethren that can explain better and most importantly, ASK GOD TO HELP YOU ERASE YOUR PAST COMPLETELY... keep up with spirit filled brethren... The lord will help you.

The main reason is because Jesus Christ was not a Christian in his lifetime on earth, it is therefore very difficult for a lot of Christians to connect.

Jesus Christ never asked His followers to do as He did. He instead commanded them to obey His commandments so surely anyone who claims to be a Christian should already understand what he or she has been called to do. undecided

Pretty much entire generations know more about the doctrines(opinions) and traditions of their pastors mogs, than they do of Jesus Christ and what He actually taught. Their idea of what the Gospel comes from the lies fed them by men and not from experience with Jesus Christ Himself. undecided

Now you're speaking.
And I could comment on this.
So whose fault is it?
The people's fault ofcourse.
Remember the Berean Christians who when they were taught went back to search and verify that it was so.
Most people have become so lazy that they can't study the word for themselves
