God Is Not Just For Sending Prophets To Specific Part Of The World by Xmuslim: 11:03am On May 17, 2020
I challenge all the abrahamic religion to come up with a reasonable explanation as to why God never sent prophets to other continent aside Asia (specifically Jews and Arab)

If he's a just and smart God, he would have sent prophets to all nation.

I know the Muslims will claim that quran talked about it that Allah sent prophets to all nation. This is a smart way for Muhammed to win your heart. Why did God never mentioned their name and the country but he kept repeating the story of jew and Arab prophets in the quran.

The Gods of Religions have their assigned Goals in the story you tell yourselves as humans. Remember that this knowledge you have about God are stories you are told, from Holy Books. So, God is just an aspect of a story.

Yet there is another story, which seems to work better, and that story does not negate the existence God and Gods but it seems to factor in every happenings in the world using Physics Frameworks.

The fact that God is supposed to send prophets, which means send people who can predict the future (Remote Viewers) to the world is nonsense. You do not need God to use your brain creatively and activate neuro capabilities to envision the future from existing blueprints. It is just the core nature of our beings, but the White men knew this, ofcourse they have used the brain to design a great planet for us all to play in.

What I am saying is that you are not better than those who are Religious and believe in God or Gods and even Goddess, it is just that you missing the point, those things are distractions, traps which will make you achieve nothing but you have a fraction of hope in a story, you become a slave race because you read stories told by those who control you yet they do not even teach their children the story.

What is the way out?

Is that the question?

Of course an omniscience and omnipotent God (if such ever exist) should not require a prophet before communicating to the world.

However, the religious people (especially abrahamic religion) want us to believe that God sent prophets. So, the onus is on them to think twice about their god if he/she is a just God by sending prophets to specific part of the globe. Those prophets even preached different doctrine because their god could not make the teaching uniform.

Even the god of the quran use to abrogate verses. Perhaps, he initially made mistake which require corrections grin

Religions are just stories we tell ourselves as handed down by all Ancestor Gods who have crossed the event horizon, the Singularity. These Gods are ancient Humans on parallel timelines. Religions are just a programs to control the mind with cocktails of truths and lies.

To eat only the truth and vomit the lies one must activate native intelligence aka common sense and sense is not very common among humans on these part of the globe.

The Gods are wise.

I had believed stuffs which were not true, religion inclusive. But part of what I have learned in life is that you must continuously learn; so, I have since learned, unlearned and relearned.

However, initially I found it difficult to let go of ideas I once cherished (Sunni Islam). But then again, it is unwise to persist with an old idea in the face of new knowledge.

I will tell my story soon.. Why I had to leave Islam despite my love for it. Different stages I passed through before I finally left islam behind.

Any sane human being will leave Islam for the real God Muhammad tried everything to attach to, Yahweh.

Because Allah is a mere idol called Hubal, the moon and star idol

Sorry to dissappoint you but I don't believe in the God of the Bible too.


I have not seen a logical proof that would convince me that God would require human to worship him or belief certain thing (such as trinity or tawheed) before he would grant them eternal blessing.

Also, I haven't seen a reasonable explanation that God would create hell fire and promise to burn people eternally in it. This is not a justice system.

In addition, if I knew my child would grow up to be a dweller of eternal hell, I would rather refused to give birth to him because of my empathy. If God have the knowledge that some people would misbehave and end up in hell for eternity , why did he create them? Does it mean that I'm more merciful than God

I believe doing good to fellow human and animals to the best of one's ability is the wish of such supreme being. Both Bible and Qur'an fail in this aspect. They placed believe over goodness

That's where you got it wrong. Humans are created with freewill, you've been given opportunity to choose which path to follow and the punishment/reward attached to your choice.

God wouldn't force you to serve him, the choice is yours. It's either you serve God or you follow the devil.

Hell wasn't made for man, it was made for Satan and Satan has been looking for as many human that will join him in hell as possible.

Same way prison wasn't made for law abiding citizens, but only for criminals so if you choose to be criminal and you're thrown into the prison, don't blame your government for being wicked, blame yourself for being a law breaker

God never did that because the prophets sent were for a specific purpose and until you know that purpose you can't be one of his true worshipers!

After Adam and Eve chose to be independent as to distinguishing between right and wrong {Genesis 2:17, 3:6} God allowed mankind a lengthy period of time to experience the consequences of rebellion, but before then God foretold that one of his obedient creatures will undo the demage {Genesis 3:15}

So from whose lineage will the promised child be born? Since all the nations are from the same lineage of Adam and Eve they've all been infected so God had to look down from heaven to pick someone who will prove to be obedient from start to finish.

Out of all the descendants of Adam God noticed Abraham, after seeing how faithful and loyal this man proved to be God promised him that if he continue to be this way he(God) will establish his covenant with him, that's how Abraham became a blessing to mankind because the promised child will come through his lineage. Genesis 12:1-3
Re: God Is Not Just For Sending Prophets To Specific Part Of The World by Nobody: 6:50am On May 19, 2020
The promise was passed onto Abraham's son Isaac though Abraham thougth since it's to be his son, Ishmael his first born son will inherit that promise but God told him that Ishmael can't inherit such wonderful promise because Ishmael and his descendants will become terrorists in the future and the promised child supposed to be wonderful counselor and a Prince of Peace {Isaiah 9:6} so it's impossible for such a child to establish the message of Godly peace in the midst of terrorists! Genesis 17:18-21

So forget about Arabs, the religion they're propagating (Islam) came through the descendant of Ishmael NOT Isaac that's why everywhere the religion goes today it will establish terror!

Israelites were the descendants of Isaac so Jesus came through that lineage, but Arabs who were perpetual enemies of the Israelites hate this arrangement so they will not accept whatever comes through the lineage of Jacob (Isaac's son) that's why they credulously embraced Islam that Muhammad one of their own brought. But God has nothing to do with their race regarding how the earth will be blessed so you'll notice that whenever Muslims want to quote any Prophet (before Muhammad) they had no choice than to mention names of Isaac's descendants because that's the lineage God chose.
The idea that God sent prophets to all other nations is a big fat lie, please if that is true then why are the Arabs propagating Islam by force on other nations?
They're only saying so in disgust against the chosen race but they can't eat their cake and have it, it's either they maintain that God sent prophets to all nations and keep their own amongst themselves or agree with the idea of a Chosen race which of course couldn't have been them!
Re: God Is Not Just For Sending Prophets To Specific Part Of The World by Nobody: 7:01am On May 19, 2020
The chosen race needs to know how everything began that's why God revealed everything that happened from the beginning to Moses (an Israelite) so the first five books of the Bible that explained how everything started was written by Moses!
God establish his covenant with the Israelites through his laws, no other nation had such laws back then people only have kings that makes rules based on human ideas for them.
The laws given to the Israelites was to keep them in check until the coming of the promised child that will redeem mankind.
All the prophets sent were Israelites from start to finish because they were sent to keep reminding this chosen race the huge responsibility that's placed on their shoulder.
They're to welcome the promised child, take instructions from him and go to other nations to preach and teach them what the redeemer taught for mankind to be saved.

So God never sent any prophet that's not an Israelite because prophets were sent for a specific purpose namely to correct those whose ancestors have agreed to live by God's righteous standards {Deuteronomy 27:1-26} when all other nations were governed by man-made rules and traditions which stem from the rebellious trait they all inherited from Adam! Exodus 19:5-6

Thanks for your explanation. However, kindly read the following points with open mind


1. The concept of original sin is flawed only if you can view it from a non-Christian percpective. Why would God punish me for the sin committed before I was born. That is not justice

2. Even if you are unable to accept the injustice in the original sin concept. The atonement of the sin via the killing of anyone let alone the only begotten son of God is laughable. God is omnipotent and omniscient. Why would he need a blood before forgiving a sin? This is unbelievable

The problem here is blame! blame!! blame!!!

If you think you should be held responsible for whatever you choose to do, you won't look for ways to shift blame!

God created so many creatures on this planet but he created human in his likeness meaning 'we have the ability to think of improvement' unlike other creatures that has been the same way from the start, human lifestyle has improved through technological advancement in so many ways, that's the import of being created in the likeness of the Creator.

The omnipotent omniscient omnipresence issue is a misconception!

There are things God can't do, events he don't know and there are places he can't be because he is holy (pure)!


God can't lie {Titus 1:2} can't destroy good people along with evil {Genesis 18:23} God can't try you with evil things! James 1:13

God can't stand the sight of evil deeds {Habakkuk 1:13} when the evil of Sodom and Gomorrah was getting out of hand, God sent two angels to go and verify IF THE REPORT IS TRUE {Genesis 18:20-21} so how do you think he could be present everywhere?

So to know God for real you must study his word diligently with a plain mind NOT using the perspective of credulous and misinformed religionists!

God is holy so there are many things a holy person CANNOT do due to being pure in thougth! undecided

the notion of disbelief equal to evil is blasphemous to the disbelievers. We don't believe due to lack of evidence not because we are evil. In fact, we are more good to people around us and more tolerant. And I didn't notice anywhere in my write up where I shifted blame.

Well, I respect your belief. But I know you will not hold this belief if you didn't see them in the bible.

However, apart from holy scripture such as bible, we all have internal self that tend to think of what characteristics God could have. Part of it is that God must be extremely powerful and nothing should be impossible for him to do. He should be able to format our mind and reinstall new way of thinking in it. We unbeliever actually have higher expectations of God than the believer because we are not limited to scripture.

I think the believer's view of God is that of a object/being that is incapable of certain things. We unbeliever do not agree with this

(1) This is where i will commend and look at you once again with high esteem Sir!
Of course most people will say God is unjust to have allowed the wrong doing of Adam and Eve affect generations yet unborn.
But take a look at it from another angle, there are millions species of creatures on this planet before God decided to make just one the overseer of all (humans) whatever man chose to do will surely affect all those creatures because he is to rule (control) them, for man to rebel against his maker means lack of gratitude and don't forget that 50% of the species of creatures can wipe man out if it comes to survival of the fittest but the intelligence God gave man has made these creatures remain in their domain otherwise man will sent them into extinct due to the wisdom from this same God.
So it's the consequences of our first parents that brought us to this stage and do you know that up till now 99.9% of mankind are still rebellious despite all the information God passed through his word (Bible)? undecided

(2) God purposely created us to be intelligent, the idea of formatting our brains is tantamount to God's inability to create one of the creatures on the planet in his own likeness!
Note that the book said God formed us out of the dust of the ground and at death we return to dust, well if man thinks God is a liar i think they should undo that by preserving themselves longer than what he said in his word or sustain the dead body and keep it as fresh as it is at death or try living in another planet after all we all knew that the writers of the book we're humans like us and they never had the opportunity of traveling to space to know what's happening there! undecided

As long as there are believers on this planet God's ability to create obedient humans has been proven beyond reasonable doubt, it's the disobedient once that needs to have a rethink! Deuteronomy 32:5
Now is the time to believe in God because the greatest evidence is here now!
Re: God Is Not Just For Sending Prophets To Specific Part Of The World by Nobody: 2:29pm On May 19, 2020
Forget all what the book says about Creation / Adam and Eve / Noah / Abraham / Moses / Israelites Prophets or Jesus of Nazareth.

God promised to give the people living in our own time the greatest evidence ever!

God said a time will come on this planet that the rebellion in Eden will escalate to the point when people will continue to rebel against constituted authorities and forming their own government, so instead of thinking of how to unite mankind will continue to divide due to Racism and Politics.

But at that same time you and i will notice a global group that's preaching and teaching how people from all nations can unite as one big and happy family of peace loving worshipers! 2:2-4

Well that's the greatest miracle ever than any recorded in the Bible! According to the book, most eyewitnesses of the miracles in Bible times never changed their mind rather they were planning to kill those that God used as his Witnesses to prove his Godship! John 8:40

So God is not bothered about unbelievers, his main concern now is the believers, as long as his purposes are undergoing fulfilment God is focused on the activities of his WITNESSES globally! Isaiah 43:10-12 compare to Hebrew 12:1

Today Jehovah's Witnesses have form that global family! Do you know that this Sunday i shed tears of joy when i posted on our Facebook group chat asking why none of our brothers and sisters is from Islamic countries, then one brother responded that in his country our brothers and sisters are preaching and teaching underG because it's an Islamic countries in the east, immediately he translated the daily text that JWs do consider everyday in his own mother tongue, then he said "don't worry my brother, Jehovah is doing his work!"

So unbelievers are to blame because God is a spirit that no man can see unless if he chooses to pass an important information to mankind, once the info has been passed and there are those working on the info, God is no more interested in those who aren't ready to come along, of course they will live their lives and expire but his gift of everlasting life is not for them! John 3:16-19

Thanks!

I respect your belief sir, and we can always agree to our disagreement. I do not find the concept of original sin logically sound enough to believe nor do I think it is proper for God to use the blood of his own son as a sacrifice for our sin.

The most important thing is for us to have peace on this planet. In as much as your belief does not endanger any other human, you should not be condemned, but don't condem others that hold contrary opinion /belief. May we all live in peace

It's the book that condemns unbelievers, to God both the believer and the unbeliever are equal in God's sight, so he is the one who will judge by exterminting those whose existence brings him no praise! Luke 19:27

Believers are just to continue as examplars in the midst of others, we are to be God's Witnesses proving with our way of life that what seems impossible with humans is possible with God! Matthew 19:26

As for the blood sacrifice, God is not a bully, he doesn't stand above his own rules.

His standard says life for life {Exodus 21:23} Adam was a perfect human (who can never get sick grow old or die) but he chose to die by eating of the forbidden fruit that will kill him and by doing so he infected all his unborn generations with oldage sickness and death {Romans 5:12} so to redeem Adam's descendants a perfect life must replace the one Adam lost. Psalms 49:7-9

Adam fathered all human through reproduction but Jesus who sacrificed his life to redeem us will become the father of all obedient descendants of Adam {1Corinthians 15:45} and because he will never have to die again he became our everlasting father! Isaiah 9:6

It's the book that condemns unbelievers, to God both the believer and the unbeliever are equal in God's sight, so he is the one who will judge by exterminting those whose existence brings him no praise! Luke 19:27

Believers are just to continue as examplars in the midst of others, we are to be God's Witnesses proving with our way of life that what seems impossible with humans is possible with God! Matthew 19:26

As for the blood sacrifice, God is not a bully, he doesn't stand above his own rules.

sir, with all due respect, the concept does not make sense to me. God should be above all these drama. Religion appears to be man made

Of course there is nothing that will make sense to all mankind, apart from what is common to all other creatures which is food, sleep and mating.
We can never agree on the same concept that's why the book itself says ~

Faith is NOT a possession all people 2Thessalonians 3:2

Those who have faith will form one family globally due to having the same line of thought {John 17:20-23 compare to 1Corinthians 1:10; Romans 1:17} while unbelievers will never come to terms on anything apart from what is common to all creatures. To a true believer if you're not part of our group you're an atheist, don't be surprised that billions are claiming they believe in God but i'm telling you now that there is just less than 9 Million believers, so apart from this group all others are ATHEISTS!

Because the word BELIEVE connotes TRUST and where there is trust there must be unity in line of thougth, which evidently will yield positivity like LOVE, JOY and PEACE in the midst of those who truthfully have trust (believe) in their midst.



However thanks for your time! smiley

The Gods of Religions have their assigned Goals in the story you tell yourselves as humans. Remember that this knowledge you have about God are stories you are told, from Holy Books. So, God is just an aspect of a story.

Yet there is another story, which seems to work better, and that story does not negate the existence God and Gods but it seems to factor in every happenings in the world using Physics Frameworks.

The fact that God is supposed to send prophets, which means send people who can predict the future (Remote Viewers) to the world is nonsense. You do not need God to use your brain creatively and activate neuro capabilities to envision the future from existing blueprints. It is just the core nature of our beings, but the White men knew this, ofcourse they have used the brain to design a great planet for us all to play in.

What I am saying is that you are not better than those who are Religious and believe in God or Gods and even Goddess, it is just that you missing the point, those things are distractions, traps which will make you achieve nothing but you have a fraction of hope in a story, you become a slave race because you read stories told by those who control you yet they do not even teach their children the story.

What is the way out?

Is that the question?

This is a nice write up. A great perspective on life and religion.

When you say you, i assume you refer to people who don't share the same level of knowledge of things like you right?

The promise was passed onto Abraham's son Isaac though Abraham thougth since it's to be his son, Ishmael his first born son will inherit that promise but God told him that Ishmael can't inherit such wonderful promise because Ishmael and his descendants will become terrorists in the future and the promised child supposed to be wonderful counselor and a Prince of Peace {Isaiah 9:6} so it's impossible for such a child to establish the message of Godly peace in the midst of terrorists! Genesis 17:18-21

So forget about Arabs, the religion they're propagating (Islam) came through the descendant of Ishmael NOT Isaac that's why everywhere the religion goes today it will establish terror!

Israelites were the descendants of Isaac so Jesus came through that lineage, but Arabs who were perpetual enemies of the Israelites hate this arrangement so they will not accept whatever comes through the lineage of Jacob (Isaac's son) that's why they credulously embraced Islam that Muhammad one of their own brought. But God has nothing to do with their race regarding how the earth will be blessed so you'll notice that whenever Muslims want to quote any Prophet (before Muhammad) they had no choice than to mention names of Isaac's descendants because that's the lineage God chose.
The idea that God sent prophets to all other nations is a big fat lie, please if that is true then why are the Arabs propagating Islam by force on other nations?
They're only saying so in disgust against the chosen race but they can't eat their cake and have it, it's either they maintain that God sent prophets to all nations and keep their own amongst themselves or agree with the idea of a Chosen race which of course couldn't have been them!

Already here with your anti Ishmael tirades Mr Witness. The tread challenged all Abraham related Faith and here you are going on about the Lies from the Kingdom Halls.
