swhiss: Satan once challenged Gods Sovereignty, that God is nt a good ruler, and he does nt want the best for we humans, and if given de chance wld turn all humans from God. That was like a huge blow to him. Hw wld God respond?...shld he kill satan? Sure he has the power to do so, but as a wise God nd who also knew that all other angels were as well watching to see his reaction to dat taunt, allowed situation to answer dat challenge, he let satan to influence humans, we all knw the story of job hw God allowed de devil to test him and hw he(job) maintained his integrity and put satan to shame [job 1:6-12].you are correct! |

Busieman: Bro I am not the right person to ask those questions. I don't know who God is neither do I know Jesus. I'm Just a young man who lives his life in peace. BTW your brother in Christ wants us to ask him questions Pastors couldn't answer |

If a man shuld go through life without stress and difficulty then he will over look the existence of God. It is called Gods permisive will when God gives the devil power some men and it is Gods perfect will that man be the head n not the tail, above and not beneath. There is no succsses without difficulty or barrier. So God uses the difficulty to give us success if and only if we overcome them. Study the life of job then you will know Gods plan. |

This is another confusion from the minds of human beings. Have you seen someone who has denied God because he didn't go through any stress or difficulty? If you have not, then why are you so sure that not having stress would turn men against God? |

donklint86: you are correct! donklint86: you are correct! No, he was not. What would you say God was trying to accomplish by proving Himself to the other angels? Was it now a matter of pride? Or was He simply on a less-than-controllable ego trip? Let's be honest with ourselves: the fact that Satan rebelled against God proves that God's finished work was defective and imperfect. It similarly proves that misdemeanours and inadequacies in supposed moral fortrightness pre-existed that fabled bite that Eve took on the apple. This and several other points of equal magnitude are clearly indicative of the supposition that God is neither omni-scient nor omni-potent. |
