Erm how did God claim it?

Through unreliable humans....smh

Instead of claiming it through a large crowd at a football stadium, he claims it through unreliable humans as u said

RationalDude: Good, can you explain God's actions in 2 Samuel 24 in relation to his love? He made David take a census of the Israelites and then killed scores of those Israelites for the crime of being counted. He had a change of heart after seeing the destruction (and he's supposed to be omniscient)

Actually it was satan that made David census Israel.

But God of the Bible is guilty of the rest

macof:

effect of contradiction in the holy word of God. Cant differentiate between truth or lie since both are holy inspiration and contained in the holy bible

Conflicting accounts of the same event. In the book of Samuel, it is clearly stated that God made David take the census while in Chronicles, Satan is the one that causes David to count the Israelites. God and Satan might actually be one and the same. Maybe Satan is the face that he puts on when he wants to commit evil.

Christians don't actually understand their holy book.

I can bet anything that I understand that book better than 80% of NL Christians.

The lies of christianity is just too much.
And only those who seek knowledge can find out the truth

God permits satan to tempt. The bible is a spiritual book. Your carnal fault finding mind will never understand or appreciate its truth. You can say that's an excuse in trying to win an argument, but the bible itself said its contents are spiritually discerned. Stop wallowing in ignorance and enmity with God and embrace truth.
God allows some things sometimes.
And God is upright, he is not obligated to explain himself to any man. We do this for your sake. That you might believe.
The ways of the lord are perfect.

Look who's talking.

Joshthefirst: God permits satan to tempt. The bible is a spiritual book. Your carnal fault finding mind will never understand or appreciate its truth. You can say that's an excuse in trying to win an argument, but the bible itself said its contents are spiritually discerned. Stop wallowing in ignorance and enmity with God and embrace truth.

God allows bad things happen because he is a God of balance.

No absolute holiness and goodness in the universe because God has made it that way.

But why do u then say "God is holy" God is Love, God hates sin, God hates evil When God not only allows evil but is also the creator of evil

Joshthefirst: God permits satan to tempt.

For what reason? doesn't he already know everything? what is with the temptations and tests?

The bible is a spiritual book. Your carnal fault finding mind will never understand or appreciate its truth.

Define spiritual in this context. The bible is very much physical, anybody can read and understand it.

God allows some things sometimes.
And God is upright, he is not obligated to explain himself to any man. We do this for your sake. That you might believe.

Defending God again I see. He is in fact obligated to explain himself to man or is man just his play-thing?

The ways of the lord are perfect.

What is perfection? the ways of your lord are totally imperfect.
