Christian Groups Answer Atheists

“And the Lord's bond-servant must not be quarrelsome, but be kind to all, able to teach, patient when wronged, with gentleness correcting those who are in opposition, if perhaps God may grant them repentance leading to the knowledge of the truth, and they may come to their senses and escape from the snare of the devil, having been held captive by him to do his will.”
2 Tim. 2:24-26


The Washing Post reports that atheist bus ads in London have inspired an answering ad from three Christian groups.

The initial set of ads, reading,
“There is probably no God. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life,” prompted both outrage and amusement, and spread to several other countries.

Now, the Christian Party will put up ads on similar buses, which say,
“There is a God. BELIEVE. Don’t worry and enjoy your life.”

The Trinitarian Bible Society will also respond with ads in the next few days, posting a line from Psalm 53:1: “The fool has said in his heart, ‘There is no God.’”

Stephen Green, national director of lobbying group Christian Voice, expressed enthusiasm for the responses.
