Maybe you should save me the stress by pointing out the verses that say GOD created evil. kingxsamz: |
Re: Does God Lead One Into Temptation by Kobojunkiee: 11:59pm On Feb 13, 2022 |
cornelboy:1. Where did you get the story in bold from abeg? 2. Where in scripture are you told that man created evil? Also, you do understand that if man created evil then by implication that means God is not then the creator of ALL things? And if God is not the creator of ALL things, then He is just one of many creators(man being one of them according to you) and so He cannot hold the title of God of ALL creations nor of God over ALL. 3. God never said that is what His Law is meant for, this since there are also curses and punishments included within His Law to ensure those who transgress His Law are duly punished. |

cornelboy: Isaiah 45:7. "I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things." |

You don't know about Satan's rebellion and how Michael and his angels defeated him and his angels right? I should ask you, where you get your ideas from? Did God create the smartphone your using? Did got create the internet? Did God create robots? God initial purpose for earth was for peace to reign, eternal life etc.. but man fell, then sin and evil came to the world. Kobojunkiee: |

Kobojunkiee: Satan was created for what? He was created to be the devil? |
Re: Does God Lead One Into Temptation by Kobojunkiee: 1:57am On Feb 14, 2022 |
cornelboy:1. Where did you get this story of yours from is what I asked you. 2. Man invented those things and manufactured them, not from thin air, but using already created raw materials. A farmer does not claim He created the crops on His farm because you planted seeds. So back to my question, where in scripture are you told that man created evil? Also, you do understand that if man created evil then by implication that means God is not then the creator of ALL things? And if God is not the creator of ALL things, then He is just one of many creators(man being one of them according to you) and so He cannot hold the title of God of ALL creations nor of God over ALL. 3. I didn't ask you what you assume God's initial purpose for the earth was, so please try to pay attention. God never said that is what His Law is meant for, this since there are also curses and punishments included within His Law to ensure those who transgress His Law are duly punished. Even the law given by God to Adam included punishment for transgression which we are all familiar since we are all of us born into the curse that resulted from Adam's transgression, revealing God's Law from the beginning included a check for evil. |

Isaiah 45:7 NLT [7]I create the light and make the darkness. I send good times and bad times. I, the lord, am the one who does these things. If you read the Torah well, you would understand that God punished the Israelites whenever they go astray so that they could turn back to Him. They easily forget God and He would send bad times to them to correct them. It could be in form of famine or other nations raiding their land or outbreak of disease.... But generally when it comes to doing evil, man is the source of evil not God. I heard a news about a 14 years boy behead his girlfriend for money ritual and do you blame God for that? God gave us commandments about loving others. If everyone obeys God today, i think the evils we'll be dealing with are death, sickness and all that. Mind you, a time is coming where the world will be in abundance of peace. No death, suffering, sickness struggling, famine, pain, any form of evil... kingxsamz: |

Oh man invented those things but man didn't invent evil right? When Cain killed Abel, it was God that invented it huh? When David took Uriah's wife and killed him in battlefront, God invented it right? When God told Adam not to eat out of the treethat he will die if he did but he eventually disobeyed God and he died, God invented it right? You've forgot about man's free will to choose from good and bad? Kobojunkiee: |

cornelboy:Where in your Bible is this story of yours from? |
Re: Does God Lead One Into Temptation by Kobojunkiee: 2:49am On Feb 14, 2022 |
cornelboy:1a. Where is it written that evil was invented, or even created by man abeg? Why not answer to the claims you yourself made?. 1b. Where do you read that Cain "invented" murder? 1c. Where do you read that David "invented" such killings? 2. Are you insinuating that even though Adam was given a choice between Good (obedience) and Evil (disobedience), that by choosing disobedience Adam "invented" Evil? 3. I didn't forget this at all. I am still waiting on you to show where exactly you read in scripture that man "invented" or even "created" evil. This since Evil is that which is against God's direct commandments to man. |

Re: Does God Lead One Into Temptation by Kobojunkiee: 3:17pm On Feb 14, 2022 |
cornelboy:What? Here again are the questions I asked you? 1a. Where is it written that evil was invented, or even created by man abeg? Why not answer to the claims you yourself made?. 1b. Where do you read that Cain "invented" murder? 1c. Where do you read that David "invented" such killings? 2.

Re: Does God Lead One Into Temptation by Kobojunkiee: 4:24pm On Feb 14, 2022 |
cornelboy:Please try to read what is written in that book without injecting your outside delusions in so you can better understand what is written out for you to understand. According to scripture, God is the one and only creator of ALL things - good and evil - and He created it all by His power. His Law given to man includes blessings and curses, to reward those who do good and punish those who do Evil. Both Good and Evil are well within His Jurisdiction and controlled by Him, the one who created ALL things. That is the general narrate from both biblical and extra biblical scripture to date. |

Re: Does God Lead One Into Temptation by Kobojunkiee: 5:26pm On Feb 14, 2022 |
cornelboy:So is this the verse from where you get your idea that men "invented" or even "created" evil? |
Re: Does God Lead One Into Temptation by Dtruthspeaker: 5:59pm On Feb 14, 2022 |
kingxsamz: This is you shooting the ball out of the stadium (Out of Point). The issue is "and lead us not into temptation" and not "ordering adults to slaughter ..." kingxsamz: The rightfulness of the all knowingness of God is already irrebutably proven by the billions of people who are already living and surviving all the harmful substances eg oceans, snakes, drunkenness, over eating, excess sex, excess play, excess work etc So as I said earlier billions of people have passed the exams but pikin wey dey always fail exam na im dey always complain say "I no like exam. The exam no pure". |

Did God put the evil in their mind? Kobojunkiee: |
Re: Does God Lead One Into Temptation by Kobojunkiee: 6:16pm On Feb 14, 2022 |
cornelboy:Does God need to put Evil in the minds of anyone to begin with? Look at Adam! All God did was give him a choice between good and evil. Did God need to put evil in Adam's mind to cause Adam to chose evil? |
Re: Does God Lead One Into Temptation by cornelboy(f): 6:24pm On Feb 14, 2022 |
How did evil come to the world? God didn't give him option between good and evil, he only told him not to eat of the tree. It was the devil and man disobedience that brought evil to the earth! Kobojunkiee: |
Re: Does God Lead One Into Temptation by Kobojunkiee: 6:31pm On Feb 14, 2022 |
cornelboy:1. The same way good came into the world. 2. Really? 16 The Lord God gave him this command: “You may eat from any tree in the garden.Doesn't that read as though an if .....else ....conditional, options? Earlier you had mentioned something about "freewill" , so are you trying to tell us that instead God tried to force Adam to doing His Will then? |
Re: Does God Lead One Into Temptation by cornelboy(f): 6:35pm On Feb 14, 2022 |
Go sit down baba. 1 Timothy 4:4 [4]Since everything God created is good, we should not reject any of it but receive it with thanks. Evil came from man. Kobojunkiee: |
