I Have a Question.......(about GOD) | |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 17622989  United States06/29/2012 03:51 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | God is a God of love..... Quoting: Anonymous Coward 18818021 The devil is described as a "roaring lion seeking to devour someone"..... The devil....is an immortal spirit being who has been around since the begining of mankind. he was there at the birth of Adam and Eve....therefore he would know us better than we know ourselves. He has had tremendous experience in "decieving" mankind... I can imagine nothing more frightening. If God is a GOD of LOVE.... Why would he judge US for falling Victim to a being like that? it literally would be like taking a bunny...and throwing it into a cage with starving lions. Would a GOD of LOVE do that? And then judge us for our failing? It would be like me playing chess agains my 6 ur old son.....then punishing him for loosing. Op A couple of things you do not understand: We were created at the same time as the 'devil'. We are all the same age. And VERY FEW of us are innocent victims in this earth age. We all have the ability to reject Satan at any time. - Not at all like a bunny. We fail because we choose too. Satan has NO power over us at all. |

My children get a harder test. Peace and love family! |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 18818021 my father did this exact same thing with me. It was good memories....however, would you punish your child if he looses? No, and God won't punish you if you don't choose his way...you simply won't be part of his family, and you'll be erased in the end... erased? that dosent sound pleasant! Perhaps....recycled.....? On judgement day if you don't choose God's way after your many lifetimes and chances, you will be tossed in the lake of fire and destroyed...those that choose his perfect way will become God's family...why do you think He created all of this? It's so he could reproduce himself...to experience himself... and burn and kill some pieces of himself? If He lived HERE right now.....how would man act? He lived here all along....would Hitler have killed so many people? Would there have been ANY world wars? Every man, woman, and child deserves another chance at a life WITH him. They would ALL have acted differently. In this day however, we have MILLIONs of different viewpoints, ans MILLIONs of churches. MILLIONs of confused people. This alone makes ALL of us deserving. |

The meditation is helping tremendously, and the signals are getting louder. i just tell it like it is told to me. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 17820757 United States06/29/2012 04:05 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I think it's because the idea of God has been used by many different cultures to instill fear and control over the masses. The essence of God or whatever you want to define it as is something completely different. Find your own answers and use your own reason. The fact that you question the validity of the damnation argument shows that you are on the right track. Keep learning and exploring your own questions and you will find your own answers. Quoting: shame_spiral beautiful.....right on the money. The BIBLE mentions these things........ Therefore.....Is the BIBLE wrong??? Where in the Bible? |

| Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 18818021 United States06/29/2012 04:13 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | however... There was once a big oak tree in a forest. The oak was mighty and proud. He stood tall and his roots went deep. One day a storm blew in and knocked the tree down into the river below. As the giant Oak tree floated dying down the river, He noticed a tiny sapling who had survived the storm. he asked the sapling..."How did you survive when I, a Mighty Oak, did not?" The sapling replied...."I bend". One must be willing to wait on the outcome of events unfolding before you before you conclusivly decide on your course. You must be willing to bend. But only when the time comes. |

It is ALL his will......good bad right wrong....its ALL experience.:) NO judgement. That is NOT love. LIFE IS. Knowledge IS!! Gain knowledge and experience....BOTH good and bad. Accept them and one day you WILL report them back. Then you will do it again. Like (and I know this sounds funny) a big game of world of warcraft. One one account you have 5 characrters. one is a wizard. one a warrior. one a knight (or whatever) etc etc. YOU own the account....but each is you. You gather experience for the pleasure of the account holder. |
