I Would Rather Burn In Hell Than Worship A Monster Called God” – Stephanie Rose / Stephanie Rose: I Would Rather Burn In Hell Than Worship A Monster Called God / 11 Signs Of A Monster Pastor (2) (3) (4)
God Is Not A Monster. by Tjayjosh(m): 5:34pm On May 26, 2015 |
On the 9th of may 2015, i saw this interesting topic on nairaland by walspring titled; Reasons why you must not go to Hell fire. I decided to read through. After all that was written and read about Hell. In the first page i saw this comment by thehomer 12:06pm on the same day. He said: "If heaven is where the monster who created hell is, maybe i'd rather go to hell. In hell, there will be thinkers like myself. There may be shouting but the shouts may be vigorous debates" Another comment by MIzMYCOLi: 11:19am on may 10. She said: "waow, that God the Op just described is scary, it must be my devil" I was cut to the heart! My impression. God is as real as that man or woman you see walking on the street. Hell is as real as the sun, moon and the stars. Over the years, Hell fire has been a very difficult concept for many to accept, including myself. People kept asking if God is so loving why will he allow people to burn in hell?. God is a God of holiness and justice as well as a God of of love. Consider this carefully. From the beginning of the history of the human race, God has expected obedience and acceptance of his word from all of his creation as absolute truth. Before God made man. 1. God created the angels. 2. God made a place of suffering-Hell. 3. God placed Hell as a price on sin if the angels sinned. 4. The angels were fully warned. 5. One-third of those angels sinned. 6. God had no choice but to do what he said he would do. 7. God made man. 8. Satan came to man and wanted to drag man to the hell where he was going. 9. Satan persuaded man to do what he had done and commit the same sin he had committed. 10. The price had already been set. 11. God had to let man go to hell, though hell was not prepared for man. (matthew 25:41) The Solution. For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life (John 3:16). God was willing to break up the God head for 33years so that man could be freed! The lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance (2 peter 3:9). Now you have one choice out of two, accept Jesus christ as your lord an saviour and go to heaven or don't accept and go to Hell. 1 Like |

@op in these games you are a learner. I can see that you just join nairaland about six months ago. Durring the early days of nairaland we have to argue back and forth with people like bigurban mazaje rossiki thedone et al trying to convince them that God is a loving God and not a monster. Using logical conclusions for they will never touch the bible with a long pole. It was a serious fight back then with no clear winner |

Tjayjosh: U aint defendin God , you are defendin satan . Only Devil will be wicked to d extent of burning his creations alive forever . Nobody begs God to create him/her , why cant he just return them to the non - existent from which he bought them ? 2 Likes |
Re: God Is Not A Monster. by Tjayjosh(m): 8:18pm On May 26, 2015 |
MizJanet:Think about the moments of peace, love, and joy in your life, isn't life worth living? Wouldn't you want to have more of it? If you know the real reason God created you. You'd never think what just said. Come closer to God he wants to have a relationship with you, in him you'll find all the answers you've be yearning for. |
Re: God Is Not A Monster. by MizJanet(f): 9:18pm On May 26, 2015 |
Tjayjosh: Who says life is not good ? Read btw d lines , my point is RATHER than burn them forever , why cant he just return them to their former non existin status ? Beside u urself invitin me to know God , do u know him ? Okay that god with 3 heads right ? 1 Like |
Re: God Is Not A Monster. by Tjayjosh(m): 10:48pm On May 26, 2015 |
MizJanet:God does not burn anybody in hell. God gave us free will. Going to heaven or hell is a choice we all have to make, there is a provision, a chance for heaven through Jesus christ, if only you'd believe. Yes i know God. If i say don't then am a lier. God does not have three heads. Let me ask you. Can water take 3 different form? Do you know humans are triune, with spirit, soul and body. Why can't God exist in distinct (not separate) but interrelated and completely unified persons: Father, son and the holy spirit. 1 Like |
Re: God Is Not A Monster. by MizJanet(f): 11:02pm On May 26, 2015 |
Tjayjosh:Who create it then ?
What about destiny ?
Choice ? What about predestination and destiny ?
Through Jesus ? Hop u know ur fellows , muslims claim they gain heaven without Jesus. Funny enough the jews that killed Jesus also preach that Abraham and isaac their forefathers ascend to heaven without Jesus even dyin How do u reconcile this ?
Distinct but not separate, are u confuse ? 1 Like 1 Share |
Re: God Is Not A Monster. by Tjayjosh(m): 2:19pm On May 27, 2015 |
MizJanet:God created hell. Hell was not created for humanity. Read (matthew 25:41) Those who spend eternity in hell, do so because they rejected God's love and his provision for salvation. Nobody is destined to go to hell, the bible says: God is not slack concerning his promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance (2 peter 3:9). The bible says that Abraham was justified by faith. God saw and accepted Abraham as a model of the kind of obedience that proves a person's true faith in God (Romans 1:5; 16:26). Abraham had made a sincere effort to live by God's laws and commands. Because of this, God blessed him. Isaac and Jacob had to follow Abraham's example of faith and obedience if they hoped to have a relationship with God and recieve his covenant promises. This is still true for believers today. |

Re: God Is Not A Monster. by Tjayjosh(m): 8:02pm On May 27, 2015 |
MizJanet:Do not harden your heart. God really loves you! Like i said Abraham was justified by faith in God. God's promises to and blessings on Abraham go beyond his physical descendants. The promises include all who accept and follow Jesus christ, who is the true "seed" of Abraham (Gal 3:14, 16). Because Abraham's faith resulted in obedience, he is the foremost example of true saving faith-the kind that pleases God and allows a person to have a relationship with him. Jesus christ is the only way to father (John 14:6) Some of the jews failed to realise this. |

Re: God Is Not A Monster. by Tjayjosh(m): 11:11pm On May 27, 2015 |
MizJanet:In (John 8:56-58). Jesus said: "Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day, and he saw it and was glad." Then the jews said to him, "You are not yet fifty years old, and have You seen Abraham?" 58. Jesus said to them, "Most assurdly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM." |
Re: God Is Not A Monster. by MizJanet(f): 8:02am On May 28, 2015 |
Tjayjosh:" to see my day" ! Lol , he didnt see it Another bible contradiction ? Abraham see Jesus day MEANWHILE abraham has died many years ago
I think ur bible versions are crazy, original greek doesnt diferentiate btw capital and small letters like thay hav done above. Is this hw dey deceive u guys with ur edited bible versions . |
Re: God Is Not A Monster. by Tjayjosh(m): 9:09am On May 28, 2015 |
MizJanet:No matter what i say to you, you'd never believe. You have a carnal mind. "Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be. (Romans 8:7). |
Re: God Is Not A Monster. by MizJanet(f): 9:24am On May 28, 2015 |
Tjayjosh:Ur own bible hav been exposin ur lies, There is nothin carnal here . Carnal means " relatin to the physical, expecially regardin sexual appetite" , none of those discussin on this thread says anythin about focusin d mind on carnal desires . In other words, u lost d case . |
Re: God Is Not A Monster. by Tjayjosh(m): 9:52am On May 28, 2015 |
MizJanet:I was never competing, i was only trying correct an impression. It clearly shows that you have made up your mind even before our discussion. I can only pray for you to repent while there is still time. |
Re: God Is Not A Monster. by sonmvayina(m): 12:44pm On May 28, 2015 |
most people where just thought the wrong version of God.....i dont blame them, they just refused to find out the truth for them selves..the idea of heaven and hell was to keep people in check..and make humans governable..God never made those place for humans to live, now or later..this earth is for us and when out time comes we exit the stage...our perogative should be for us to live on our own terms. not anybody forcing us out.... |
Re: God Is Not A Monster. by Tjayjosh(m): 4:01pm On May 29, 2015 |
@tartar9. What is the point of the whole thing you just wrote? |
Re: God Is Not A Monster. by thehomer: 7:24am On May 30, 2015 |
Tjayjosh: If God is as real as all the things you mentioned and we can see those things you mentioned, why can't we see your God? Why is he hiding? Tjayjosh: Hell is not justice by any reasonable standard. Tjayjosh: Those angels saw and met God. God knew even before he created humans that most of them would end up in hell. God doesn't have to torture humans forever. Tjayjosh: That is not a solution because all sorts of questions can be and have been raised about Jesus and the New Testament gospels. God lost nothing. 33 years is nothing to an eternal being. If you think 33 years is significant how about the 2000 years after? Like I said, your God knows most people would be going to hell so the line about everyone coming to repentance is just noise. Accepting Jesus doesn't mean you'll go to heaven. In fact, most Christians will be going to hell too. Thanks for your offer. I'll take my chances. |
Re: God Is Not A Monster. by MizJanet(f): 7:51am On May 30, 2015 |
thehomer No intelligent person can belive in that crap called ' hell' . acceptin Jesus doesnt mean you 'll go to heaven . Dont mind them , which jesus ar they even accepting ? Lol they see it as just a license to sin everyday. Let me explain : they will tell u that those who belive in jesus cannot sin , what comes to your mind ? Yeah, you start think they ar saints , are they ? No . what they meant is that once they belive, they can sin without any guilt , no mater how much they sin it wont be counted lol , a license to sin |

thehomer:You asked. Why can't we see God? Why is he hiding? In Job 13:24, job pleads before God in light of the crisis he was in and suggests that God had distanced himself from him. In isaiah 45:15, isaiah observes that God hide himself from his people at times because of their sin. 3 REASONS FOR GOD'S HIDDENNESS. 1. Hidden for our protection. Perhaps God hides because of how his presence would affect us. We know that if a man sees God fully, he will surely die (Exodus 33:18-20) and we also see example, like that of isaiah of those who stand in the presence of God and are utterly "ruine" by his holy and glorious presence. 2. HIDDEN FOR THE SAKE OF RELATIONSHIP. God may hide because he wants a particular kind of relationship with us. What would be the effects of experiencing the fullness of God's presence in our daily live? Would we still have free will? God hides because he wants us to obey him out of our love for him, not because we are pressured into it or because He's standing over our shoulder ensuring everything we do is perfect. His hiding could be his way of giving us more freedom to choose to obey him. 3. HIDDEN SO WE MIGHT SEEK HIM. Moreover, let's remember that God is a personal being who loves us. Rather than being constantly overwhelmed by his presence, maybe God wants to give us the opportunity to really long for and seek after him. Someone once said that God doesn't always put his cookies on the lower shelf. What he meant by that was that God sometimes puts the sweetest things in life, like being in his presence, at a higher reach to make sure that those who find him really want him. Of course, scripture teaches us that no one seeks after God if left to themselves (Romans 3:11), but because God sought us he gave us the ability to affectionately seek after him. IF HELL IS JUSTIFIABLE PUNISHMENT? Like i said before: Hell was never ever made for man. Hell was made for the angels. God gave us his commandments. He he also gave us freewill like the angels. You a have choice. If you go to hell, it is because you choose to. Why do you get punished if you commit a crime in a society today? In some countries if you are caught on account of corruption, the penalty is death. And let me tell you this. We are alive today because of that 33yrs christ stayed on earth. Because of that you have a chance of spending eternity with God. |
