Our "Free Will" and Beliefs

God is not dead 1 —— It seems that the film has exaggerated the arrogance, arrogance, ruthlessness, and other negative states of people who stand on the opposite side of Christianity, but if you really encounter people who are not compassionate, kind, and humble in life After a brief period of tolerance and respect, they will soon avoid contact, and they don't want to get to know the other party's religious beliefs at all. But I can't deny that there are some talented and wise people in this world, who can show their excellent rationality ingeniously and witty to excuse the unpleasantness in their humanity, so that we need our own "free will" to make own judgment and choice. There is also a scene in the film that made me cry. The Muslim girl was kicked out of the house by her father because of her Christian beliefs. The point of crying was not because of her firm belief in her own belief, but because of her different beliefs, which would really lead to "sin" , and these evils include war, betrayal, misunderstanding, abandonment, and everything else that hurts our "love". His father once said to him: "Daughter, I know it's not easy for you to live in their world with a scarf, a world you can see but not touch. But I ask you to do what you have to do. , all because I love you." I can't understand, because you love her, you should respect her and the belief she chooses after her own "free will" judgment, and let her find her own self-worth and self in her belief. Recognize, don't choke her and push her out of the house, no matter what faith she chooses, it doesn't matter, it's just that you said you love her, you shouldn't make up her beliefs in the name of love. free.

God's Not Dead quotes

  • Reverend Dave: [Josh is sitting in a pew in the church when the preacher walks in] Waiting for someone?

    Josh Wheaton: Yeah, you could say that. It looks like he's out at the moment.

    Reverend Dave: Well, maybe that's why he sent me.

  • Josh Wheaton: I could drop the class, run away, pretend like it never happened, which is what my girlfriend wants. I could sign the paper saying something I don't believe. Or I commit academic suicide in front of a live audience by trying to prove that God exists.

    Reverend Dave: How many people in that class?

    Josh Wheaton: Eighty maybe.

    Reverend Dave: And how may of them do you think would ever step foot in here, or any other church for matter?

    Josh Wheaton: Well, none probably.

    Reverend Dave: So, your acceptance of this challenge, if you decide to accept it, may be the only meaningful exposure to God and Jesus they'll ever have.

    Josh Wheaton: Yeah. Yeah, I suppose so.

    Reverend Dave: Check out Matthew 10:32-33.

    Josh Wheaton: What, that's it? That's all?

    Reverend Dave: Yeah.

    [gets up to leave]

    Josh Wheaton: Just a Scriptural citation?

    Reverend Dave: If you're still undecided after that one, look at Luke 12:48.

    Josh Wheaton: It can't be that simple.

    Reverend Dave: Sure it can. You're here because that still small voice inside you isn't happy with the choices everyone else wants you to make. Personally, I think it's the Holy Spirit talking to you. That's how He interacts with us if we allow him to. All you have to do is decide whether or not you're willing to listen. It's not easy, but it's simple.
