How will a Christian explain this (see below)?

They didn't bomb the church. The church may have suffered damage, but the The Israeli military told AFP that its fighter jets had hit a command and control centre involved in launching rockets and mortars towards Israel. “As a result of the IDF \[Israeli army\] strike, a wall of a church in the area was damaged,” it said, adding “we are aware of reports on casualties. The incident is under review.” Witnesses said the attack damaged the facade of the church and caused an adjacent building to collapse, adding that many injured people were evacuated to hospital. No man should have been hiding in that church. When someone started launching rockets at Israel close by every man should have went to stop them. Why are men hiding inside a church when there is a fight going on is the question. It's a known tactic for the terrorist forces to hide among civilians.

When people ask why Christians pray "in Jesus' name," it's a really good and honest question. Here's the straight answer from the Bible: Jesus Himself taught His followers to pray in His name. "And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it." (John 14:13-14) Why "in Jesus’ name"? Jesus is the only way to the Father The Bible teaches that sin has separated us from God. Jesus is the bridge. He said:"I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." (John 14:6)Praying in His name is acknowledging that we don’t have a right to approach God on our own - we come through what Jesus has done for us. He is our Mediator There is one God and one mediator between God and people - Jesus Christ (1 Timothy 2:5). When we pray in His name, we’re coming to God based on Jesus’ perfect life, His death that paid for our sins, and His resurrection. It’s about relationship and authority Praying in Jesus’ name isn’t a magic phrase you tack on at the end. It means: Praying with His approval Praying according to His character and will Trusting in His authority and power It’s like having a family name. Because we are adopted into God’s family through Jesus, we now have the right to come to God as Father and ask in the name of the Son. It glorifies God Jesus said the reason we pray in His name is so the Father is glorified through the Son. It keeps the focus on what Jesus has done, not on how good we are. Simple way to think about it: Imagine you broke the law and needed help. You can’t just walk into the judge’s chambers. But the judge’s own son (who paid your fine) says, “Come with me - you can come in my name.” That’s the idea.

I never got into religion, never spoke to me. Morality is the easiest way to behave like you're a religious person yet preserve your Sunday mornings. Not sure how you separate the cultural identity of a religion from the dogma. The pedo thing turned a lot of people off on catholics, which in hindsight was likely a mossad exposure operation to damage Christianity. This kinda tainted Catholicism. The protestant side looks like a chaotic mess that has been highly infiltrated by more than just Israel. The baptists are the weirdest of all. Then the Scofield bible. The the darker reaches of elites in the Prodestant church, like Masonic shit. Among the flavors of Christianity, Catholicism seems the "best" one I guess. Charlie Kirk was rumored to be in the process of conversion. By giving it up, you put the morality on your shoulders, you are the guide.

That is a good start....go from thinking to implementing. There is no truth in Christianity...all lies. That is one of the many many problems of that pattern of worship. A better pattern awaits you. Peace.

The English Language is not necessarily designed to tell the truth...yes? If one writes a book, any book, and they make great claims in that book, then they must provide great evidence that what they claim is indeed 'true'. The Bible has not done this. The Bible is a cautionary tale, and one to be taken seriously enough that others have used it to start great wars and murder millions. Right now on this site, we have posters threatening violence against other users for criticizing God. That religious peoples use their God to incite violence and murder others, is not new....but it is telling of the people that believe in such a God. If you have evidence that God created the heaves and the earth, you would be the first....so please feel free to share it if you can. Peace.

braven: If you have evidence that God created the heaves and the earth, you would be the first....so please feel free to share it if you can. The evidence is to understand how we accept other things have a creator(s), for example the Internet etc. By opposites things are known, dichotomy (i.e. Creator and creation). The First, its origin, its source, its pioneers etc. Or don't you believe the Internet has a creator(s)?

*Or don't you believe the Internet has a creator(s)?* No one has to 'believe' such a thing as the Internet....it exists. That you used this, to prove your point, is pointless. That 'something' created the heavens and the earth, is no proof that an Almighty, all knowing God created them. *The evidence is to understand how we accept other things have a creator(s), for example the Internet etc.* What evidence of God? The Internet exists, we are using it right now to communicate. The Internet does not require a belief system for it to exist. We may have faith in the Internet....all good...hope it keeps working. However, belief is not required when evidence is apparent. Peace.

Christianity never stopped folks from using it to excuse their evil Islam never stopped humanity from crumbling Paganism existed, never stopped nothing The moment the people allow faith to separate from positions of power the clock begins because religious will gladly trade in the cloth when their aims become hindered by such.

Using the actions of the men who abandon humanity to attack God's teaching to us is a poor washed up tired strawman of an argument
