God, Death And Our Belief. by agarawu23(m): 6:26am On Sep 13, 2015

Happy Sunday everyone

We were taught to believe God is aware of anything that's happening to us but we aren't facing the 'word' when it comes to reality.

If for example a man shoot his fellow man with a gun and he died, should we blv his death is written on that particular day? Why then will the force arrest the killer if the death was from God

We can't stop using the word " he was killed by Mr A, she was killed by Mr B" why can't we say he or she was killed by God

Should we say God used them to end the life of the person they killed?

Why can't we accept that death is from God?
Do we human have power to kill?

I am just confuse angry

Nobody tried to at least understand his question and see from his own point of view but all is eager to lay idiotic answers as fast as their phone allows them to.

How does any of the answer above answer the question even in a little way, none of the people there understands the question one bit.

One problem with humans "Understand little and talk more"

I wanted to know your belief before I know how to answer your questions.
But from what you just typed I think you are a knowledge island so no need of arguing with you.
Cos you said I know nothing but the fact that I know I know nothing shows that I know something.

Yes, God is aware of all what is going on on earth but he is not responsible for our calamities. If you believe in the bible, it says " Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of
turning-James 1:17". and also " For I know the thoughts I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace and not evil, to give you an expected end-Jeremiah 29:11".

Do not try evading a question as usual. You might not be a theist but you can also contribute your own qouta without insulting others like you did in your previous post.

Ya, I understand the OP is asking veracity of Fate, Destiny and predetermination of person in the theistic sense. Theism which stands on God have different meaning to it.

God is consciousness in panpsychism. This is analogous to pantheism, just replace"god" with "consciousness," http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Panpsychism

God is Energy in Shaktism

God is substance in Spinozism.

God is Nature in Natural pantheism.

You might not agee on some stance with theist base on the word God but you wil agree with the theist that our behaviour is influenced by some factors. You embrace science a lot
science holds that the centre of human behaviour is the brain. However, the brain can be influenced by some chemical effects.

This chemical effects can reflect in consciousness (God in panpsychism), energy (God in shaktism), substance (God in Spinozism) and Nature environment (God in Naturalistic pantheism).

Serotonin is a chemical created by the human body that works as a neurotransmitter. Researches has shown that it can controll mood naturally. Also, it can be used to treat agression when applies artificially. Nitrous oxide cause person to laugh, hallucination drugs distort or create another reality. It is all projection from chemicals. Suarez comes to mind. How can a grown up man bite before the whole world. I am sure this is something he doesnt like doing but he cant help it when the chemicals in his body effect it. This showing our behaviours and actions are all chemical effects. Should we be blame or hold responsible for our action which is factor of chemical reaction that can be altered by Nature?

All our actions, whether it is virtue , vice, peace or war are determined by the biological and electromagnetic environments combined with our genetic configuration over time. What happens in your environment, what nourishment you eat, events that you experience etc they all affect the neurochemical balance of your brain.

()

we are brain puppets. Our actions are caused by chemical effects, forces like electromagnetic force, natrural environment and others.

You need to see the neuroscience of a serial killer here http://www.bestcounselingdegrees.net/serial-killer/

Lets now remover God (even without removing it, it still reflect some tangible stuff that affect ones behaviour). Who then should we hold responsible? Is it us or the chemicals and the gene?

Stop lying bros.

Is it not from the mouth of the Most High that both calamities and good things come? Lamentation 3:38

If a trumpet is blown in a city will not the people tremble? If a calamity occurs in a city has not the LORD done it? Amos 3:6

The One forming light and creating darkness, Causing well-being and creating calamity; I am the LORD who does all these. Isaiah 45:7

Re: God, Death And Our Belief. by Nobody: 10:15am On Sep 13, 2015

Its painful that most christian leaders have embedded people's brain with worldly philosophy comparing it with God's standard. James 1vs5 says if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God who gives generously without reproach. Verse 13 says let no man says i am tempted by God for God cannot be tempted by evil or he himself tempts with evil.. There is nothing like God has written someone death date down. The books in heaven is the book of life and bonk of death. No book of life span or book of people act. DONT BE DECEIVED.

You are right about all the scriptures quoted. The thought of God for us is good not evil but the wickedness of man turned it upside down that's why Proverbs 12:21 says; There shall no evil happen to the just: but the wicked shall be filled with mischief. That was what I meant when I said God is not responsible for our calamities.
Though hand join in hand, the wicked shall not be
unpunished: but the seed of the righteous shall be
delivered-Proverbs 11:21.
