Maximus85: God did not create us like robots. He gave us a free will to choose from wrong or right. Your decision is yours. Obey God or disobey him.

God gave strict warning that Adam and Eve should not go near that tree not to talk of touching it. He even told them what would happen if they this obey him. They chose to disobey him knowing well of the consequences of their action.

Fashola said we must use the pedestrian bridge, evidently its for our own good. But some people would still cross the express. If they get killed....would you blame Fashola for anything? Read Eccl 11:9. You will be judged based on your decision.

I heard someone saying he need to be purified before making heaven.

The Bible says "there will be a new heaven and a new earth in which righteousness is to dwell" if God destroys the planet as they teach you...will he destroy heaven too?

The new heaven has been since Jesus and his angel sent Satan out of heaven, a new earth will be when Satan and his demons are destroyed...only then will righteousness dwell here on earth. Why go to heaven again?

victorazy: Stvpid question. Ur simply asking why teachers set exams to their students.
OP must be a ......cuz christian cannot ask this kind of question

harde2lah:
sharrap dia....who told u a xtian can not ask such questions. I ve been tryin to ask myself this question. So dont fuckin tel us dat a xtian cannot ask. As some intelligent people ve rightly pointed out, this is beyond human understanding. Man is a rational being nd he has right to ask questions. Smtimes wen i ask my colleagues sm questions abt religion dat is bothering me, they would reply nd say "are u sure you are a xtian?" am a xtian ofcourse. I hav a lot of questions to ask God in d end time.

If Satan was once an angel (Lucifer), Who tempted angel Lucifer to sin when there was no devil or sin back then?

@johnsonjosbles:
Becareful how you chalenge God. Human in God's hand are like material in the hand of manufacturers, what ever the product obtaind/destroyed frm the material used r unchalengeable.but suficient God's grace even grantd u privledg to post this trend dnt u think? human wishdom can't answer that questn.

gratieao: God is all powerful. Yet He allows Satan to carry out his deceitful and destructive activities
The Bible pictures the whole world under the sway of an invisible devil. Where did he come from? Did God create a devil to tempt us and to lead us astray?
IS THERE a devil? Many people talk about the devil and Satan. Others scoff and say it's just superstition and imagination.

If you ask me i will say that the fault lies with the manufacturer (God)! God allegedly created humans, yet he faults us for being guided by our desires, instincts, and natural tendencies. Since he’s supposedly omniscient, God realized how we were destined to turn from the beginning. He must also have realized that his lament would fuel the urge to destroy his precious creations, only to leave himself back where he started. Even so, he creates Adam, yet hundreds of years later, he drowns nearly all the men (time of Noah), women, and children on the face of the earth because he deliberately chose not to make us to his liking the first time.

Pukkah:

Don't you think that a reasoning like this belittles the concept of 'God'?

Why should God be interested in testing the faith of anyone or the result of such a needless test? Don't forget, God is supposed to know the end from the beginning. What would it benefit God for anyone to pass or fail the faith test?

The truth is that no religion has been able to clearly and comprehensively explain, without contradictions, explain issues like Satan, Paradise, Hell, Original Sin, Forgiveness, Prayers, Predestination, etc.

The explanations are usually rooted in dogmas and are at best mere conjectures from the mortal minds of men.

obadiah777: satan is not lucifer. lucifer is a title that means the illuminated or enlightened ones. the bright and morning star. lucifer in the bible is mentioned only once in the book of isaiah the 14th chapter. now if you dedicate time to study that chapter in its entirety, lucifer is not referring to a man but an empire. the empire is BABYLON. this is future prophesy because BABYLON is USA. USA is the lucifer being spoken about in isaiah 14th chapter. so your question is invalid because when AMERICA ( LUCIFER ) started sinning, there was sin rampant all over the world. before USA, there were demonic empires like the greek, medopersian, assyrian, egyptian and ancient babylonian. all demonic empires with their own sinful doctrines and philosophies

God predestined him. But d why is what I can be sure of.

It's illogical to think that President Goodluck would predestine someone to overthrow his Govt in 2015. Nah!! This is your own personal assumptions, it's no where to be found in the bible and it's illogical. 0 Mark

No. 2: If Adam and Eve were the only humans on earth, and they gave birth to 3 sons. How did they continue to multiply? Who were their spouse?

obadiah777: oh yes i am. even if i do say so myself lol JK

to add to the guys points. this is lucifer that was being spoken about in isaiah the 14th chapter

isaiah 14 vs 4 That thou shalt take up this proverb against the king of Babylon, and say, How hath the oppressor ceased! the golden city ceased!
isaiah 14 vs 12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! BABYLON

If Lucifer is BABYLON and BABYLON is USA. Your bible quotation means USA fell down from heaven.

You really must be fun at parties.

Iceman296:
I Guess you are an Atheist Because no sane Christian would think this.

We are all Tested one way or the other, You just gotta Accept it. Even Our Lord Jesus was tempted too. Its Just a way of God Knowing our Stance in him and what we Can Choose or Sacrifice to be with him.

He is a Jealous God Remember??

caseless: When devil was about to get evicted as result of his refusal to bow to adam, he asked God for one thing i.e "power" , i mean power to woo or lure people of shaky faith, mislead people and power to enjoy followership frm man. These, God has given to him and God also told him that "u can only mislead those that allow u to". If u are trully for God, devil can never permeate ur heart.

This is another way of using human mind to describe God.

'Don't challenge God' as if God is interested in anyone's challenge.

In trying to explain God, people like you end up belittling Him.

The truth is no human mind really understands God.

obadiah777: adam is not one man. adam is a nation of people both male and female. they are called adam because they are made from the ground. adam is a description of how they are made. it is from the hebrew word adamah whch means 'from the ground'

genesis 5 vs 2 Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created.

If Adam is a nation of male and females, who was Eve? Did God make Eve from the rib of a whole nation?
