Gods order to warn the wicked. [Spirituality & Religion]

“Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the people of Israel; so hear the word I speak and give them warning from me. 18[b] When I say to a wicked person, ‘You will surely die,’ and you do not warn them or speak out to dissuade them from their evil ways in order to save their life, that wicked person will die for[b] their sin, and I will hold you accountable for their blood. [/b]19 But if you do warn the wicked person and they do not turn from their wickedness or from their evil ways, they will die for their sin; but you will have saved yourself.

20 “Again, when a righteous person turns from their righteousness and does evil, and I put a stumbling block before them, they will die. Since you did not warn them, they will die for their sin. The righteous things that person did will not be remembered, and I will hold you accountable for their blood. 21 But if you do warn the righteous person not to sin and they do not sin, they will surely live because they took warning, and you will have saved yourself.” Ezekiel 3

What exactly does following Jesus mean ?
As an Atheist, I don’t believe in god. Nor do I believe Jesus actually existed. He’s merely an avatar for the religion. However, I still live by the basic principles of life. I am capable of doing right and wrong , based on my own principles and judgement. I have things I am proud of, and things I regret. How does belief in Jesus change this in any positive way ?

@Carazaa He's obviously wrong then, I've got on fine without him, just like most people.

@Lynda70 He is helping you because many pray for you!

You can believe that if you like but I know it's rubbish. For a start, your god doesn't exist in reality and according to your bible it doesn't help anyone who doesn't believe in it. Another thing, I wouldn't want it in my life anyway and you've said it doesn't interfere where it's not wanted.

If any god is helping me, it's Odin.

That is great and we should listen.

Sadly people do not want to be warned.

@DocSavage We are very selfish and we have to train our kids to be loving.

@Carazaa
You can do that without telling them that they are unworthy to begin with.

@DocSavage I tell the truth, we are unworthy of God because we are sinners. But Jesus bought us back to God.

Anyone can quote Bible scriptures all day long. But if your heart is not right then you are wasting your time on here. 😌

@Zonuss Exactly!
