baby4u2:[b] Is he kind to the people in impoverished nations who are crying out to him for help and food? Is he kind to the innocent victims of crime who cry out to him with no response? Can you prove that he is kind or are you unable to think otherwise? You have also come to your own conclusion and are unwilling to acknowledge that there are things that take place that show the opposite of kindness and mercy. But, you cover that up by saying we are not meant to understand, etc. God does not give anyone the benefit of the doubt when they don't believe in Jesus or him, that person is punished by hell or death, etc. So, why should we give him so much benefit of the doubt when many of his actions are clearly not merciful or loving. if this is not how God intended things to be, he could change them, and he made a mistake somewhere which makes him fallable not infallable. I am very happy, and doubt is good. Better than following blindly when the evidence is so clear. I thank you for your response. But, it comes from a place that you know something that others don't again which is based on the bible, and I do not agree. [/b] |

@Justhappy Last word I promise, Christians dont follow blindly, Like I said you have made your conclusions already. I hope when you ask these many questions you have an open mind to receive an answer. |

pain and suffering. But let me end by going back to this specific tragedy that took place two days ago in Aurora. For all the things it leaves us confused about, one of the truths it clearly illustrates is that life is so fragile and short. These people were going to a movie! They had no clue that this might be their last moments in this world. Friends, in this sin-scarred world, we never know when death will come knocking. Often, we don’t get any warning when a heart attack strikes, or when a drunk driver crosses the centerlin |
