Is God Fair? by Grouppoint(m): 10:51am On Oct 05, 2006 |
I seek the Lord and as we all know, he is unsearchable: Here are just a few questions a good Christian who really seeks God should ponder: Why would God state in the bible that Pharaoh was created just for destruction so that His glory on the earth will be revealed? Doesn't that mean that Pharaoh had no choice from his birth and therefore his free-will could not help him in this instance. And God says to Moses, “I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.” So then it does not depend on the man who wills or the man who runs, but on God who has mercy. ” (Romans 9:14-16, NASB95) Why are some people healed by faith and others are not, even though it appears they applied the same faith? Does this not subject the person who is not healed to a lack of belief in the word of God, which incidentally, as we are told, does not return void. Why did God say: The older will serve the younger.” Just as it is written, “Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.””(Romans 9:9-13, NASB95) Again, “The Lord said to Moses, “When you go back to Egypt see that you perform before Pharaoh all the wonders which I have put in your power; but I will harden his heart so that he will not let the people go. ” (Exodus 4:21, NASB95) 1 Like |

Sister, I would not call that a very illminating answer to my question. I believe the Lord expects us to reason before we conclude. Now, in the light of the pointers in the scripture that I highlighted, why would you conclude that the Lord was fair? |

Grouppoint: God is not unsearchable. We are no longer limited by the incompetence of the Old Testament Saints. Why would God state in the bible that Pharaoh was created just for destruction so that His glory on the earth will be revealed? Doesn't that mean that Pharaoh had no choice from his birth and therefore his free-will could not help him in this instance. Are you FUNCTIONALLY-ILLITERATE, that you do not know that GOD VISITS THE INIQUITY OF THOSE WHO HATE HIM TO THE THIRD AND FOURTH GENERATION? Maybe you also skipped the part of The Book that talks about HOW MOSES GOT HIS NAME? And God says to Moses, “I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.” So then it does not depend on the man who wills or the man who runs, but on God who has mercy. ” (Romans 9:14-16, NASB95) ONLY FOOLS BUILD THEIR DOCTRINES ON PAUL- THE MAN WHO LEARNED TO SIN FROM THE BIBLE COMMANDMENT NOT TO. It depends on the man who wills, and the man who runs: PAUL LIED ABOUT YAHSHUA MANIFESTING TO HIM, while he HATED HIM. Why are some people healed by faith and others are not, even though it appears they applied the same faith? Does this not subject the person who is not healed to a lack of belief in the word of God, which incidentally, as we are told, does not return void. There are four Spiritual Energy Categories: UNJUST, FILTHY, RIGHTEOUS, and HOLY. The FAILURES are UNRIGHTEOUS. Why did God say: The older will serve the younger.” Just as it is written, “Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.””(Romans 9:9-13, NASB95) HOW THE (*BLEEP!*) SHOULD I KNOW? Okay. So I know. YACOB kept some KEY COMMANDMENTS of God, therefore GOD LOVED HIM, while ESAU BROKE some KEY COMMANDMENTS of God, wherefore God HATED him. Again, “The Lord said to Moses, “When you go back to Egypt see that you perform before Pharaoh all the wonders which I have put in your power; but I will harden his heart so that he will not let the people go. ” (Exodus 4:21, NASB95) "YOU EXPECT THAT THIS WILL MAKE ME TALK?" BRAINLESS HYPOCRITES sympathize with the WICKED PHARAOH and EGYPTIAN PEOPLE, who had been KILLING ISRAELITE MALE CHILDREN, ON SIGHT, for FORTY YEARS- because they were "TOO NUMEROUS." YAHWEH GOD WANTED to punish EGYPT, and send a MESSAGE to ANY IDIOTS who DARED to TRY that again! |

He absolutely is fair. He doesn't love "me" more thsn He loves "you". He loves everyone on this planet equally. He is not partial. He is impartial. Although we don't understand it yet, He judges righteously & one day we will see that. His character will be vindicated. Now is this sin ravaged world that we live in fair? No...it isn't. Death, disease, poverty, natural disasters....not fair. Sin causes death...to all in one way or another....and we all have or will be touched by it. However, we have a God who is loving, merciful, kind and long-suffering towards ALL...whether we choose to acknowledge it or not. |
