I agree and the interesting thing is that the Bible very much allows for a person to question God. It's not a sin. Even Jesus in his agony questioned God with the phrase 'Elai-Elai lama sabacthani'. Job questioned God and prophets like Jeremiah and ELijah also had their questions for God. The interesting thing is God answers questions. He replied Job and for aloll his questions. Asking questions of God & the Bible is a great way of enriching your Christian experience because by doing so you find out more about God & His Word. |

Jesu questioning God? 2) Job accepted his suffering |

Enigma: Moses in particular was always questioning or "arguing" with God --------- yet he was bestowed with such great honour as to be at The Transfiguration.The thread is 'Why are people so afraid TO question' not 'Does GOD allow it'? People are afraid to question Yahweh/God cos only on rare situations and after extreme persecution/trial does He show up to give answers, yes, very similar to a dictator.. From Moses to Jonah, Gideon to Job, the Bible is littered with characters who went through Nazi-like torture at the hands of God for their belief in Him... |
