I’ve been struggling with some pretty big questions lately about life and the meaning of existence. And to be honest, these days I’m finding it hard to believe what I was taught as a child, namely that there’s an all-knowing God who’s always watching over us and listening to our prayers. As much as I’d like to accept that an intelligent, loving presence is up there, I keep wrestling with doubts, and there’s one in particular I just can’t get past: If there truly is an omnipotent being who created the universe and wants us to live by His word, then why doesn’t He just throw us a really sick fucking party?

Some will argue that’s not how God operates. “He works through the people in our lives,” they’ll say. Or, more frustratingly: “God’s ways are not for us to understand.” But those answers don’t satisfy me anymore. If God is real, wouldn’t He want us to know it? Wouldn’t He want us all to acknowledge His presence and worship Him? Well, if He’d just throw us one epic party with a couple drinks and everything, the question could be settled once and for all. We’d know that He exists, and everyone would believe in Him without a shred of doubt.

I know that people will argue that believing in God isn’t about proof—it’s about having faith. But if God flooded the earth and delivered the Israelites from slavery in Egypt, then He’s certainly not opposed to intervening in human affairs. Which just begs the question of why He hasn’t taken us all up to a sweet lake house, filled up a few coolers with brews, and just let everyone get shitfaced. After all, wouldn’t God want us to appreciate Him and be happy by playing beer pong and quarters all night long?

Don’t tell me a being who created the world in seven days can’t put on an epic house party—I’m talking one where everyone has a plastic cup in their hands, we’ve got two different kinds of Jell-O shots going, there are people hanging out on the deck, people shotgunning cans up on the roof, and maybe even some body shots going on. Why not? This is an entity that supposedly created light and formed every single feature of the universe, so as far as booze is concerned, you know the Lord Himself would probably roll up with a ton of the high-end stuff—Stoli, Crown Royal, 151, all the primo shit.

What kind of a God wouldn’t want to do that for His creations?

It simply doesn’t add up. If God were really out there somewhere, He would have had at least one totally sweet rager or maybe even a whole block party by now. Maybe He did a long time ago, but there certainly haven’t been any killer fucking fiestas in my lifetime. All I’m asking for is one little bash from the Lord Almighty. It doesn’t even need to be a big, flashy deal or anything. It could just be a nice, laid-back get-together with some good tunes, good beer, and good people. God wouldn’t even have to show up if He didn’t want to, though it’d be fucking awesome if He did.

I suppose I’m questioning this so much because, deep down, I desperately want to believe. Maybe God exists and maybe He doesn’t, but if He does, and He ever gets around to throwing a big party for the ages, I’d be the first one there with a case of MGD and my bubbler in hand. After all, if God created me in His image, then I know He’d want to party His balls off and get blitzed out of His mind.

Oh! But We are Partying, save that it is a "Strictly by Invitation only" affair!

All those who are invited are Partying Already!

No Good Parent throws a party for a wickedly behaved and disobedient child. No, not One

It is rather that such children will be de-child, rejected, dis-owned and thrown into a very Dark Dungeon, Never be be Seen Again.

Your parents never threw you a party when you disobeyed them, failed your exams and caused problems with your neighbours like an Agbero. Dey no dey throw party for Agbero.

Lukepeter:

Your Teachers are no different from you, for they Never knew God at all, Neither did they Truly Want to Know Him but pretended to. So they had to manufacture answers for you so that you yourself would not know God, FOR ANYONE WHO KNOWS GOD IS THEIR ENEMY.

So in other that they do not kill you, THEY HAVE TO REMOVE AND COVER GOD IN YOU, SO THAT YOU SHALL BE AS THEY ARE, WHICH IS TO LOVE WICKEDNESS AND EVIL BUT PRETEND NOT TO!

And they are usually successful as you can now see for yourself. Now they "love" you.

Genuinely Change to God and See how they shall Hate You and Torment. Then you would know that God is Real and Satan too is Real and All of the things in the Bible are Real and Very True.

Try Changing and See what they shall Do!

A Party of Pain, as is going on right now also Accomplishes that!

No Parent proves to the children in the house, their parentness. All the children in the house know Who their Parent is and have never asked any Parent to prove their parentness.

Only the Children of the Casted Out, Rejected and Disowned Children do so and will do so and must do so, because they are Casted Out.

The father of the prodigal son threw his the most epic parties ever. Even his brother got jealous.

Nope, it means God should literally right this moment take everybody to lake and let's party together. Not some imaginary invitation stuff that you just came up with.

Lukepeter:

.Benevolence or Grace is ONLY GIVEN TO CHILDREN WHO ARE AT HOME!

Street Urchins and Bastards Are Always Cut off from Any Benevolent and Do Have Any Connection with them, exactly as you shall never be responsible for the children under the bridge or in the dark corners of your street.

But unlike you and I, God was still Benevolent in that He has Still Established an Institution that will Screen and Cleanse and Train Bastards and Cast Outs who wish and desire to be "Legitimate children" which you and I have never done and will never do

That is still God's Benevolence at work!

Our parent use to go out in the morning and toil the soil and when the come back in the evening they always bring food, provide shelter and security; why do you think children instinctively look up to their parents?

totally agreed with you on this, so is this the best God can do in the Ownership, Control and Management of the world? If that doesn't bring God pedigree into question, then nothing else can.

Who would want such a dad.

Lukepeter:

I knew you were going to fall for it!

I bet you did not know that is what it means to be invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb! Rev 19:9!
"Blessed are they which are called (invited) unto the marriage supper of the Lamb (Party)".

And as you can see the invitation is for select persons as Rev 19:8 shows!

If you do not qualify, you shall Not Enter therein as I told you afore!

So you obviously do not qualify, hence your lack of knowledge of the Party as I told you at the first!

Myer:

You guys recognise a trap when you see one!

That Proverb is the Proof of the Benevolence of God, as per the Op's Question. That was a Successful Completion,Training and Return of A Self Casted Out Child.

The Father had not yet Casted him Out, but he, rejected and ejected himself and Cashed Out his Rights.

Do you think that this scenario will still play out if the Father had Bannished him and Casted him out? NEVER!!

Further, you did not see that when the Stupid Child Casted himself out, the Father did not stop him nor go looking for him, nor helped him in the outside he chose to go, Which is the Counter to this stupid thread.

"No Good Parent throws a party for a wickedly behaved and disobedient child. No, not One!

It is rather that such children will be de-child, rejected, dis-owned and thrown into a very Dark Dungeon, Never be be Seen Again

Thus, the Stupid son WAS VERY VERY LUCKY That His Father Had Not Yet REJECTED him and therefore, he was lucky to have taken a chance which worked in his favour, If Not Rejection was his already and it could have been upheld by his Father, with no problems as the First Son raised.

It still baffles me why people blame God for things happening in this world. The laws of the universe must take it place and that is called balance. Peace and war, love and hate, birth and death, good and evil. Even science has proven this to us in a better way for us to understand. Gravity, evaporation and condensation, atoms, etc. We believe in God because we cannot explain our very existence, so the creator is whom we refered to God even when we cannot tell whom. We are not unique or different from the rest of the creations, do not deceive yourself, we are only fulfilling our role in the universe.
We live a programmed life, that's what people call destiny. I hear people say they have freedom to do whatever they want, and then I tell them to go to any bank and sit on the MDs chair. Impossible right? That's to let you know you your freedom is limited to your destiny/program. Like Judas in the Bible, he's job was the most difficult of them all, he couldn't escape it too even if he tried.
Don't blame your creator for anything, just play your role to the end. You might be lucky to take a better role next time.

LMAO! Maybe when Jesus comes back he will turn some water to wine and we'll have that party.

That's just lazy.

When we talk about freedom, it means the things within your control, all your analogy doesn't make much sense. Of course, there is nothing stoping me from sitting on the MD's chair, but what happens after that is totally left to me. How is that impossible? Action have consequences.

If you think you are programmed then of your action is justifiable, there is a reason why you know the difference between right and wrong, I get your point but it is not black and white or some eureka moment right there.

"I Refuse to believe that God Forced my parents to love me! I thought my parents genuinely loved me even more than God, now this Dtruthspeaker is telling me that they did not love but God Who Compelled them to love me"!
