Reality11: It takes more faith to be an atheist. You are going round in circles. |

solite3: Lol, how did your answer relates to what I said? Reality11: You couldn't handle it right? All am trying to do is to point out the flaws and absurdity in your belief system. Your religion and idea of God can not even pass simple scrutiny and reasoning. You don't pay to think, its free. 2 Likes |

Reality11:life is always two, everything is two and is a choice ! yes He sees every side like He sees 100 that will end up in hell even from the hell at one side and He sees the same 100 that will not end up in hell at another side but now depend on that 100 where ever they choose . if you are caught stealing what will you say! are you going to tell them that someone compel you to steal or you intentionally stole? huh is your choice you chose the evil and face the wroth of law. |

Reality11:Only a fool will try to convince you on a calculated and premeditated question, you have made your standing clear that religion is a trash, that is not a question, it is an opinion, it is a calculated attempt to rubbish religion, I will have answered you if truly or you pretend you want to know more, remember your knowledge ends where your bitterness starts. |

The air does not need you, you need the air. If you pretend otherwise you die. Secondly, if you don't know your purpose in this life then you are useless to our generation. Third, I was an atheist like you until I read goegraphy. If you remain an atheist after geography then you are simply insane. Reality11: |

profolaolu: Yeah, its a trash since the questions I raised can't be answered. , it is a calculated attempt to rubbish religion, I have doubt and am also curious to know that's why I yearned to know. So religion shouldn't be questioned? I will have answered you if truly or you pretend you want to know more, remember your knowledge ends where your bitterness starts. Lol, where is the bitterness, show me. This the third time you have been quoting me but you end up avoiding the question by bringing irrelevant points. 2 Likes |

jcross19: Are you suffering from aphasia? How does what you wrote relates to my questions? Since God is omniscient why would he send his son to die for me, why would he make efforts to save me if he already knew I'll end up in hell? Why send me to earth again, to change my mind? When he already knew that I won't change? Why all the efforts? 1 Like

I think from my best of knowledge, this omniscience of a thing as to do with God knowing the outcome of your choice or decisions you take. He gave you a choice to take and anyway you take, he knows the outcome. That is what i believe is Omniscience |

kingxsamz: What I mean is don't blow up your mind about how all knowing God is. What He really requires from us is to love and obey Him. |
Re: If God Is Omniscient, Why The Efforts? by judedwriter(m): 6:32am On Feb 17, 2020 |
Reality11: Don't get confused about how all knowing God is. This subject can cause so much confusion and cause one to doubt the character of God. God is love, yes He is all powerful and all knowing but He firstly requires our love. Obey Him with all your heart and don't doubt His love for you. |
Re: If God Is Omniscient, Why The Efforts? by luke4look: 6:57am On Feb 17, 2020 |
I see you don't believe in God. So why bother yourself with this important question. But let me presume you believe in God (a supreme being) and answer. You have free will. You can decide to kill yourself with electricity or cook yam with the same electric. So it is not God knowledge that determines who go to hell or heaven. It is your choice. God knows that all men shall end up in heaven. But if you choose to go to hell, that's your responsibility. This is what the Bible preach Reality11: |
Re: If God Is Omniscient, Why The Efforts? by luke4look: 7:04am On Feb 17, 2020 |
This is internet age dude. Go ask google about arch atheist who later turned to God. It is not his will and knowing that any should perish. If you know the condition of Nigeria and that Boko Haram can kill you and your children, why bother getting married and raising family? Reality11: |
Re: If God Is Omniscient, Why The Efforts? by Reality11: 8:27am On Feb 17, 2020 |
luke4look: How does this also answer my question? Whats my concern if atheist turn to God or Christian or Christians to atheist. Did I tell you am following the crowd? If you know the condition of Nigeria and that Boko Haram can kill you and your children, why bother getting married and raising family? when did I told you am getting married or not? Still how does this relate to the question? God is omniscient he knows I won't change, why is he making efforts to save me. Is he not omniscient? If you are omniscient and you know when you send your sibling on errand he won't go. You then send others to caution him, you threatened him, beg him. Since you are omniscient you already know it he won't heed to all this, why wasting time begging and persuading him. To change his mind?when you already know he won't change 1 Like |

solite3: I have been following this thread. But I can't help but shake my head in disappointment at your inability to answer a simple question. It shows you don't know what you're doing, and you're only following a religion because that's how your mummy and daddy brought you up. If you wanted to convert someone to your religion/belief and the person asks you these simple questions which requires straightforward answers, is this how you will fumble? Sorry to say, you're a joke and therefore should not be taken serious. If you did finish primary school, you'd know that when you're asked, what is 1+1? You'll answer '2'. 1 Like |

kingxsamz:Like I said, man is a moral agent that have the opportunity of choosing what they want, and GOD is an omnipotent and omniscient GOD who knows the beginning to the end, but GOD can change HIS mind, GOD knows Abraham will be sorrowful if HE destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, and HE gave him chances to prove a case, another one GOD knew King Hezekiah will become bad, so HE wanted to take him before that time, but Hezekiah decided to challenge GOD and GOD gave him an option of 15years more and eventually he fell, GOD knows the end from the beginning, but like a Potter, HE can change HIS mind. HE decided to annialiate Israelites but Moses beg HIM and HE change HIS mind |

Re: If God Is Omniscient, Why The Efforts? by Reality11: 10:39am On Feb 17, 2020 |
profolaolu: Jesus!!! Please no kill me with laugh How does this answer the question? Why are you deliberately avoiding the question? Am not asking you whether God gave me option or not, or how God can be merciful My question is since he is omniscient, he definitely knows how I'll end, if I'll end in hell he knows. So why is he making efforts to save me when he already know I won't heed to it? Why sending prophets, preachers giving warning etc 2 Likes |
Re: If God Is Omniscient, Why The Efforts? by Reality11: 10:43am On Feb 17, 2020 |
profolaolu: Just give the point, how would my sentiment change the fact or its validity? Answer it so that others that are following the thread can learn. |
Re: If God Is Omniscient, Why The Efforts? by kingxsamz(m): 10:45am On Feb 17, 2020 |
profolaolu: What are you saying? If he's omniscient then it means he knows the end result of every outcome. Whether one changed his mind or not, he already knew what would happen at the end. So your point is not valid. So if he already knows the result of every outcome, and therefore knows the amount of people going to hell, why bother to create them? It's like leaving a 4 year old child in the house alone and asking that child to make soup, (something which you know the child isn't capable of doing) and then you get back to realise that the child didn't make the soup, and then you punish the child for not doing what you asked him. Please if you can't give a straightforward answer without quoting any bible verse or adding irrelevant stories, please don't bother to replying. 1 Like |

kingxsamz: My problem is not about the punishment sef. My concern is why going to the extend of telling him to cook, giving him the receipt, procedures and begging him. Why all this efforts since you know he won't even do it, is the God acting based on a script? |
