Sometimes i feel we r on trade mission with God. He created us.........for an end product or gain or whatever God calls it-there is smthing He wants to acheive from us at the end of the day..but then He brought d bible......as a guide, as a criterion to meet with His end product of creating us........that is wher d problems lies... If u make heaven,,,good for u if u make hell,,,it is then u will knw that He is a loving God, n at d same time,a dangerous God! No repentance in d grave.....that God is strict, ''He no dey hear i beg if u die finish''......He won't help u......or show mercy... And i've bin asking....but He said He is a loving God......and even teaches us to love others,y has He refused to show mercy to those crying in hell.......this is wht i cannot fathom ever since! Yet some said there is no God. I refer to Him as 'dat God' those in hell now understand better: LET US LIVE RIGHT 2 MAKE HEAVEN,THAT GOD WON'T PITY US IN HELL. |

Apatheist: your response concludes that God exists and you hate him. If this conclusion is correct please answer these: WHY DO YOU HATE GOD? DO YOU ALSO HATE THE GODS OF OTHER RELIGIONS OTHER THAN THE GOD OF THE CHRISTIANS? |

Eberex: if yes, you believe God's all powerful then you believe also that God exists. if you believe God exists then please answer these questions: WHO OR WHAT IS YOUR GOD? WHICH RELIGION FUELS YOUR BELIEF IN GOD? DO YOU HATE GOD? IF YES, YOU HATE GOD,WHY DO YOU HATE GOD? |

Apatheist: Your premises sir are illogical and do not lead to valid conclusions. your premises are: premise 1 I do not believe in any god, or God, or gods, whatever premise 2 The character Yahweh in the Judeo-Christian book of myths is an Naughty Person and a hypocrite, same goes for the character Allah in the novel, Qu'ran. your premises contradict eachother! if you DO NOT BELIEVE in the existence of any God going by premise 1 then how do you BELIEVE God to be a naughty person and a hypocrite going by premise 2? please correct this? |

efficiencie:I don't know if I should laugh or cry at your stupidity. Did you not read where I called them books of myths and novels? Have you read Harry Potter? What do you think of Snape? If you think Snape was a douche does it mean that you believe Snape is real? Did you not see I used the word "character " for the gods, and "novel " for the books? See how religion brings out the stupidity in people. reread my post. 1 Like |

sambisa5: Sometimes i feel we r on trade mission with God. The truth is that God is not only a loving God, he is also a God of judgement. His love is great and his wrath is equally great. God has never hidden these two sides of him from us but we always want to see only his love side and use it to condemn his wrath. It doesn't work that way. God does not change,and if that's the case then it is obvious he did not develop wrath in him because of man. I believe these two characteristics were in him ever before creation and that is why he has always warned man from day one in the garden of eden on the danger of going against him which will result to tasting the bitter side of him. That's why he went as far as making the redemption plan for us through Jesus Christ so that we may escape this other side of him(judgement/wrath). God cannot change his nature, the best he can do is what he has done by making a way of escape for us. If anybody refuses to embrace the way of escape then the person has himself/herself to blame. If God had hidden this other side of him from us and be telling us that he is only a loving God then we could accuse him of deceit when he visits people with his wrath but here is a God who has NEVER pretended about his wrath. He has never seized to warn man on the need to avoid tasting that part of him so he has done his part. We can't understand him fully while on earth but if truly we want to be fair in viewing God then we must not be one sided about it( I.e. Viewing him only from his love angle) we must view him from both angle(love and judgement/wrath). We could say that heaven is a complete manifestation of God's loving nature while hell/lake of fire is a complete manifestation of his judgement/wrath. And of course God's nature is eternal because he is unchangeable. Its left for us to choose which side of him we want to taste/experience eternally. Someone(torchwave) gave another insight on the JUST nature of God in another thread. I may have to bring his post here so that you ll also understand that angle of God too. God bless you. 2 Likes |

efficiencie: SMH, this dude sure needs a chill pill. Don't you get it yet? Apatheist, in premises 1, was saying that he doesn't believe in any god, God or gods and in premises 2 was referring to the pattern of "God" displayed in the Bible and Qur'an (which indeed discribes nothing but a hypocritical, attention-hungry, blood-thirsty megalomaniac). |

Re: Questions That Baffle Me About God by ayoku777(m): 3:38pm On Jul 19, 2014 |
alexleo:Well said brother. God has never once hidden His full character from us, man only simply loves to cherry-pick which side of Him they want to emphasize while they ignore and play blind to the other side, or they hold unto one view of Him and try to use that side to call Him a hypocrite when He shows His other side. God is loving and longsuffering; even so the scripture also calls Him "slow to anger". What does "slow to anger" mean, if not that He can finally get angry. We must see all the parts of God, to FULLY understand any single part of Him. God is both loving and just and in between His love and justice He is also gracious to us. God is both good and severe; and in between His goodness and severity He is merciful to us. But even so, He is also just and severe. Romans 11v22 -Behold therefore the GOODNESS and SEVERITY of God: on them whiche fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness.... Its not just atheists and unbelievers alone that have this dogmatic one-sided opinion of God and Christ. Even we christians to do it too; in issues like grace versus law, God's sovereignty versus man's freewill, christian suffering versus dominion mentality. We drift to the extreme we favour and we criticize or refuse to listen to the other side which also have good biblical points than can help us know God more fully. Most times in scriptural debate, truth is found in the balance between both extremes. |
