christians, why do you sit and eat with the unbelievers?!


Question: Christians, why do you sit and eat with the unbelievers?
the only people you should eat with are the people of the books, but all the others you don't have to.

So why eat with them who are unclean?

Answers:

Jesus ate with unbelievers.



We are following Jesus' example. Mt 9:11 When the Pharisees saw this, they asked his disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and ‘sinners’?”
12 On hearing this, Jesus said, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.
13 But go and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice.’ For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”

If you are Catholic, this also proves me right when I keep telling everyone that the Roman Catholic leaders are like the Pharisees. See you ask the same question to christians as the Pharisees asked Jesus in MT 9:11

bible



WE ARE TO GO INTO THE WORLD AND COMPEL MEN TO COME UNTO CHRIST, I WILL FEED AND EAT WITH THE UNBELIEVERS ANYTIME, JESUS HATES A PROUD SPIRIT BUT THE HUMBLE HE WILL EXALT
JESUS DIED FOR SINNERS, I WAS AN UNBELIEVER AT ONE TIME, THANKS GOD A BELIEVER ATE WITH ME TO SHOW ME THE WAY



Wait, wait, WAIT.

Doesn't your religion teach love for all, regardless of their beliefs? That's what I've certainly had rammed down my throat on and off for the past 20 years.

This is the problem for me. Hypocrisy.



i have many none Christian friends.... but i don't preach to them because their not interested.. i also have Christian friends too (ones that i can relate too).. your not supose to hate or judge anyone.. no matter who it is..



The only unclean things are out from the mouth of a person (emphasis added)

bible



because we are to be as much like Jesus as we can. He ate with the unclean. How can we spread the gospel if we only sit with ppl who believe what we do.



The Christians I know eat with me because they're not stuck-up & snobby believers like you.

Atheist.



I don't discriminate against atheists because I believe Jesus wants me to treat everyone with equal respect.



How am I unclean when I take showers?

Its called tolerance. Learn it.



Bible doesn't say that. What they say is don't let your closest friends be unbelievers.



Because Jesus Christ, author and perfecter of my (the Christian) faith, did the exact same thing.



Obviously you totally do not understand the bible.....>



I ask my wife that but she still insists on sitting with me.



Because there is hope for them that they will find faith and maby i can help them find it



How can they hear without a preacher.



Maybe because Jesus did.

Mark 2:13-17



At one time, we were ALL unbelievers!



i am married to an unsure person. I still love him.



I don't want to eat with you anyways, bud.



I have friends of all faiths. You are a close-minded fool.
