How To Convince An Atheist Family Member To Believe In God by tonyx4x44(m): 11:24am On Nov 21, 2016
This is ridiculously easy.

Take your family member out to an open field when the sky is clear.

Say, “Dear God, if you want this person to believe, cast a bolt of lightning here!”

If a lightning strike happens, you'll likely get a believer.

If not, God has indicated that he, she, it, or they don't care about this issue. If so, neither should you.

And the Op just made a fun of God. Just thank God that God is not wicked if not, the lightening would have struck your phone.

God cares about everyone oh, if you think God is dead, give Him just one day and ask him to show himself.

this same one?


In Genesis 7:21-23, God drowns the entire population of the earth: men, women, children, fetuses, and perhaps unicorns. Only a single family survives. In Matthew 24:37-42, gentle Jesus approves of this genocide and plans to repeat it when he returns.


In Exodus 12:29, God the baby-killer slaughters all Egyptian firstborn children and cattle because their king was stubborn.

In Numbers 16:41-49, the Israelites complain that God is killing too many of them. So, God sends a plague that kills 14,000 more of them.

In Joshua 6:20-21, God helps the Israelites destroy Jericho, killing “men and women, young and old, cattle, sheep and donkeys.” In Deuteronomy 2:32-35, God has the Israelites kill everyone in Heshbon, including children. In Deuteronomy 3:3-7, God has the Israelites do the same to the people of Bashan. In Numbers 31:7-18, the Israelites kill all the Midianites except for the virgins, whom they take as spoils of war. In 1 Samuel 15:1-9, God tells the Israelites to kill all the Amalekites – men, women, children, infants, and their cattle – for something the Amalekites’ ancestors had done 400 years earlier.

In Genesis 19:24, God kills everyone in Sodom and Gomorrah with fire from the sky. Then God kills Lot’s wife for looking back at her burning home.

In 2 Kings 2:23-24, some kids tease the prophet Elisha, and God sends bears to dismember them.

In Judges 21:1-23, a tribe of Israelites misses roll call, so the other Israelites kill them all except for the virgins, which they take for themselves. Still not happy, they hide in vineyards and pounce on dancing women from Shiloh to take them for themselves.

In Judges 11:30-39, Jephthah burns his daughter alive as a sacrificial offering for God’s favor in killing the Ammonites.

In Judges 14:11-19, Samson loses a bet for 30 sets of clothes. The spirit of God comes upon him and he kills 30 men to steal their clothes and pay off the debt.

In Deuteronomy 13:6-10, God commands that you must kill your wife, children, brother, and friend if they worship other gods.


In Genesis 38:9-10, God kills a man for refusing to impregnate his brother’s widow.

I could go on...

N.B: I assumed you are a Christian, because a Muslim would probably be more violent.

Hehehehehehehehehe now I get it. I know your line of thought. Well God doesn't exist, He really exists. But sha the freedom of worship is still a law in Nigeria. I pray you find peace in whatsoever you choose to do. I don't do religions, I am a seeker of the truth.

John 8:32
and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”

John 14:6
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

All I seek is the truth (Jesus) Nothing else.

If you find the truth in your Atheism ride on Bro.

May God give you an understanding of HIMSELF.

So the absence of a lightning to strike your family member is enough to confirm God doesnt care about him.

Wow, you are so intelligent.

Before you attempt to rate another's intelligence, you should learn how to read.

Go back read the original post and correct yourself.

Or you could give your child some real scientific facts about the serious end results of atheism as reported below;

New information from a 22-year old study at a German University[/b] has many psychiatrists and psychologists throughout the world wondering if atheism/ deism, agnosticsm is a sign or warning of a more serious mental illness already present or in the process of developing. Atheists or people who are very strident about their atheism are heavily prone to mental illness:

“There were 17,809 people in the study. It was a very large model as far as psychological experiments go.” This came as quite a shock to us as we studied patient after patient.”

The results of this study have unnerved even the most stoic scientists, physicians and researchers.

If that was bogus to your educated mind, then the facts below must be insane to you.

Doctors are searching for a gene [/b]that might cause a correlation between serious mental illness and what they are calling “overt atheism.”

[b]Emmanuel TV is a golden opportunity for Deists/atheists/agnostics world wide to study freely in private and examine the evidence. They will make progress if they put aside their racism. God is revealing Himself mightily through a black man. Examine the evidence not the man's color !

Brave new Scientist are known to make use of Emmanuel TV as the golden opportunity to study and examine the evidence.
These insane men who founded atheism/deism/agnosticm and they unfortunately also have the greatest influence on modern Psychology and Psychiatry, Charles Darwin, Sigmund Freud, Thomas Henry Huxley and Nietzsche, Issac Newton, Albert Einstein and more.
