Mynd_44:lol.i can understand the difficulty in accepting that everythin people have been taught their entire life is just a myth created by some romans that lived thousands of years.it just seems incredulous to accept that their entire belief system isnt as unique as they thought it was.almost every sect,race,tribe and culture overn the past millions of years has created its own deity.each claiming to be the one true way and warning adherrents to stay away from all others.even scientology claims to be the one true way to whatever it is the way leads to. |

Gombs: Why would a God have 'plans' if he's timeless? Aren't plans for those who have a concept of past and future? |
Re: "Why Does God Allow Us To Gothrough Trials And Tribulations?" by Gombs(m): 4:31pm On Sep 15, 2013 |
aManFromMars: plan (pl n) n. 1. To formulate a scheme or program for the accomplishment, enactment, or attainment of: plan a campaign. 2. To have as a specific aim or purpose; intend: They plan to buy a house. 3. To draw or make a graphic representation of. v.intr. To make plans. [French, alteration (influenced by plan, flat surface) of plant , ground plan, map, from planter , to plant, from Latin plant re, fromplanta, sole of the foot; see plat- in Indo-European roots.] Its common for any thing sensible to have the above bold if they wanna achieve a desired goal, no? Meanwhile, planning is for the future, not the past. The above definition didn't have anything to do with time/timing...but purpose. Same with you, when you plan, its atimes irrespective to timing but has everything to do with achieving a purpose/desired goal |

Until we come to realize that God is not anthropomorphic, these sort of questions will not stop. |

But in d first place Why does God need to test ur faith as the all knowing one? There had better been other explanations than "He just wants to test ur faith". That's so lame During the period of the Black Death in europe, questions like this dealt 'the church' a heavy blow because people refused to be fed with 'he just wants to test ur faith'. |
