I met a new friend online. I wrote a twitter message about how atheists are better evangelists sometimes than Christians. i included no hashtags and didn't write it to anyone. I was surprised when ProudAtheist responded. I really didn't want to get in a duel with an atheist. I have heard all of their arguments before and I thought it would be a waste of time. I found him/her to be very polite and respectful. So when he said the gospel was following the teaching of Christ. I said that is not the gospel. So he asked,"please enlighten me." I felt such a warm affection for ProudAtheist. I felt free to explain the gospel without expecting to change his mind. If God wants to do that he can. So, in many twitter messages i explained the Roman's Road to Salvation. He thanked me and said it is meaningless for one who doesn't believe in God. And I said,"Yes, that is a Biblical truth!"
I have learned alot about atheists in my convo with ProudAtheist. I feel blessed to have met him/her. I also feel so blessed to know Jesus. I found out that true atheists don't believe people have souls. Which I think is at least being consistent. Without God, we would have no soul. We would be like computer chips of chemical reactions. I think if that were so man, would eventually be able to create computers that would love and be sad or even hate.
God follows 1 Cor. 1:18 with 1 Corinthians 1:19 "For i will destroy the wisdom of the wise, the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate."
