Our Emotions/actions Vindicate God (of Guilt) by kambo(m): 11:03pm On Oct 16, 2013 |
guilt, if he had any. Assuming God existed and the criteria for him to be God were not met by Him (according to some group of know alls - atheists etc ) The accusers of God would still be shooting themselves in the foot trying to prove him ineligibile for HIS TITLE. In the Bible, the accusers of Jesus, the religious authority (self entitled) were often left dumb founded whenever they tried to wrestle with him with their wisdom. With the card carrying flaming anti-God group, the logic isnt even far fetched to throw them all into a ditch which they're blind to yet walking into. For example. I read in the papers the other day, of the rise in the rate of extra judicial killings in kwara state. Many supposedly kidnappers especially were dealt burnt alive by angry mobs. some cultists who went to have a night meeting met their demise when they were returning because the local vigilantes suspected them to be armed robbers. The misjudgement is lamentable but the motive behind the jungle justice is irreligious. The mob were probably not members of the same religious group yet they unanimously agreed , not through a process of cold calculated logicising, that certain things are evil and they spurred by anger (they didnt put up the anger or fake it) , descended on the culprits. They're anger was satiated after justice had been met. This lets us know a lot about the composition of the human being. Anger is a burning craving in human society.And if aggravated enough and they have the means man as a group will exact justice with speediness instead of waiting for some more formal logical emotionally controlled artificial process aka the "civilized way". If man,as a group, cannot extract justice cuz he is over powered, out numbered,e.g in the case of a military regime, he'll put on an outer show of submission but secretly he'll be craving for justice . like a thirsty man . in iraq, out of fear the populace were totally subdued so they put up double behaviour to save their lives. when Abacha was in power it was the same thing, smiling outwardly but weeping inwardly desiring justice. This also shows that Anger is an accelerator a fuel for spurring the quick dispensation of brutal justice which is needed to purge an evil out of its place. so anger , is good and essential like hot burning antiseptic is needed to cleanse a wound of bacteria/germs. So back to the God in the Dock stand situation, Imagine God is sorrounded by a pack of wolves , like Jesus was sorrounded by a heaving pack of pharisees, all it would take to uphold God's justice for the hot bowl of punishment He's going to pour out on those who've resisted His will, will be our history. Have you ever gotten angry before? Did you ever burn with anger for a perceived wrong? Did you ever exact speedy justice - by use of force of brawns or force of many (group of people) Did you ever feel sated and satisfied when perceived evil was punished? Did you feel you were right and justified for bursting out in anger? Then if you being human , and having so short a life span and warped perspective relative to an eternal being who saw it all and still allowed you get away with your actions, felt just in ur anger and exaction of justice, God would be even more justified . His anger has been brewing for years!!! - he's been accumulating it , and He's been pleading with the world to repent and turn away, He's warned the world about His wrath, He's warned them about the outcome and consequence of HIS WRATH, He's shown and said that He doesnt circumvent HIS OWN decrees unlike men but rather legally satisfied them, e.g He sent Jesus to die for man He didnt use his sovereignty as God to over ride things but made Jesus pay the full brutal price ,get beaten beyond recognition till his skin hung like strips of rangs from his Body, bearing the full wrath of God that should have been visited on man, proving that even God is bound by HIS spoken word!!. Then , on the dock before HIS accuser, he'll have all justification to visit with SPEEDY ANGER HIS WRATH on the stubborn hold outs who defy and continue to defy his HOLY STANDARDS!! GOD'S accuser will be dumbfounded , check mated , non plussed , mouth agape that a fly can buzz in an out, just as it was with the pharisees and Jesus' accusers in the Bible. |

If God is bound by his spoken word, biblical history has scant evidence of this. Much of his word is inspired written by MAN and often mistranslated, revised and sometimes creatively and deceptively published for the wrong reasons |
