God Hates Nothing | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 26268975 Slovakia 12/16/2012 09:20 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Okay OP, that's your prerogative. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 27531391 But that's not bible teaching. Do a word study on "hate". There are plenty of things that God hates. Just sayin'. If you believe in a world of duality, than both God and His creation are capable of expressing both love and hatred. .. The only time i would ever study 'Hate' is to learn how not too... Which i already dont! :D Infinite Love is the Only Truth! Why? What are you afraid of? Discovering something that doesn't mesh with your world view? The word "hate" appears in the bible and God is described as hating various things. This is a world of duality. Light and dark. Joy and sorrow. Peace and war. and yes, LOVE AND HATE. The Bible? You talking about the book of duality? How could God Hate, when he is the source light. Are you telling us that the source of pureness, has hate in it? Holiness before God is neither good nor evil. WAKE UP. |

People hate, the devil hates, not God. God loves all no matter what, now go and repent your sins, and ask for forgiveness, how dare you, for saying God Hates. Shame on you! It's your prerogative to form your own image of God's attributes in your mind. Anyone is free to do this, even to start their own religion describing what they believe are Gods' attributes. But the bible gives many examples of God HATING. I'd quote the verses but you're probably really not interested in knowing. And peoples' eyes tend to glaze over when they see bible verses. Sorry if that doesn't jive with your worldview. The Bible? You rather believe in the bible than the pureness in your heart. Belief comes from within, and not from some paper. Sure the bible has some truth to it, but it also has lies in it also. God Hates, that friggin cracks me up, and you believe that shit? |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 15534724 Canada 12/16/2012 09:33 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | If 'God' hates evil, why does the bible say that he creates it? I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things (Isaiah 45:7) Evil did not exist until satan turned against God. We were created with free will, that includes the angels. God created satan and all the angels, but it was not God's desire that they turn against him and become evil. Yeah but he could wipe them out in a single foul swoop If they even exist. Cant recognise good without having evil We are all spiritual beings and make choices to what we want to experience which includes being hateful and evil and when we have experienced it we will eventually return to the source our Creator. Our real inner being wants to feel love and oneness with all and our Creator eventually. so live in the now and know. |

The authors of the Bible were all sane, but you are crazy. The Bible writers were witnesses to the life of Christ, and faithfully recorded what they heard and saw. Correction. Most of the New Testament writers never met or saw Jesus in their lives. They lived many years after Jesus left the Earth. They wouldn’t have known Jesus of Nazareth if they walked into him on the street. But... The Bible writers were great believers and great historians. They took the stories which hadbeen passed down to them and to their friends by others— elders—from elder to elder, until finally a written record was made. And not everything of the Bible authors was included in the final document. Already “churches” had sprung up around the teachings of Jesus—and, as happens whenever and wherever people gather in groups around a powerful idea, there were certain individuals within these churches, or enclaves, who determined what parts of the Jesus Story were going to be told—and how. This process of selecting and editing continued throughout the gathering, writing, and publishing of the gospels, and the Bible. Even several centuries after the original scriptures were committed to writing, a High Council of the Church determined yet one more time which doctrines and truths were to be included in the then-official Bible—and which would be “unhealthy” or “premature” to reveal to the masses. And there have been other holy scriptures as well—each placed in writing in moments of inspiration by otherwise ordinary men, none of whom were any more crazy than you. Are you suggesting—you’re not suggesting, are you—that these writings might one day become “holy scriptures”? My child, everything in life is holy. By that measure, yes, these are holy writings. But I will not quibble with you over words, because I know what you mean. No, I do not suggest that this manuscript will one day become holy scripture. At least, not for several hundred years, or until the language becomes outmoded. You see, the problem is that the language here is too colloquial, too conversational, too contemporary. People assume that if God were to talk directly with you, God would not sound like the fella next door. There should be some unifying, if not to say deifying, structure to the language. Some dignity. Some sense of Godliness. As I said earlier, that’s part of the problem. People have a sense of God as “showing up” in only one form. Anything which violates that form is seen as blasphemy. |

They took the stories which hadbeen passed down to them and to their friends by others— elders—from elder to elder, until finally a written record was made. And not everything of the Bible authors was included in the final document. Already “churches” had sprung up around the teachings of Jesus—and, as happens whenever and wherever people gather in groups around a powerful idea, there were certain individuals within these churches, or enclaves, who determined what parts of the Jesus Story were going to be told—and how. This process of selecting and editing continued throughout the gathering, writing, and publishing of the gospels, and the Bible. Even several centuries after the original scriptures were committed to writing, a High Council of the Church determined yet one more time which doctrines and truths were to be included in the then-official Bible—and which would be “unhealthy” or “premature” to reveal to the masses. And there have been other holy scriptures as well—each placed in writing in moments of inspiration by otherwise ordinary men, none of whom were any more crazy than you. Are you suggesting—you’re not suggesting, are you—that these writings might one day become “holy scriptures”? My child, everything in life is holy. By that measure, yes, these are holy writings. But I will not quibble with you over words, because I know what you mean. No, I do not suggest that this manuscript will one day become holy scripture. At least, not for several hundred years, or until the language becomes outmoded. You see, the problem is that the language here is too colloquial, too conversational, too contemporary. People assume that if God were to talk directly with you, God would not sound like the fella next door. There should be some unifying, if not to say deifying, structure to the language. Some dignity. Some sense of Godliness. As I said earlier, that’s part of the problem. People have a sense of God as “showing up” in only one form. Anything which violates that form is seen as blasphemy. Fine, but this doesn't prove or disprove whether God hates. Even if we choose to disbelieve the bible for all of the reasons you and others have posted in the thread, doesn't prove that God is all love, all the time. Outside of the light lies a shadow, inside of the light is pure light, where darkness doesn't exist. If you do not get that, maybe you just don't wanna believe. God doesn't hate, period! |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 30114138 United States 12/17/2012 01:21 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Between the Second Council of Constantinople and the Council of Nicaea more than 100 books were burned or rejected and considered heresy that didn't fit the political agenda This is true too as only 66 of the hundreds of books made it into the 'official' bible - lets see what God says about it. Excerpted from page 39 of "Conversations with God" · an uncommon dialogue · book 1 Neale Donald Walsch 1992 -1994 [link to www.humanitysteam.ru] I am glad you came. I have always been here to help you. I am here now. You don’t have to find the answers on your own. You never had to. Yet it seems so.. .presumptuous. . .to simply sit down and dialogue with You this way—much less to imagine that You—God—are responding—I mean, this is crazy. I see. The authors of the Bible were all sane, but you are crazy. The Bible writers were witnesses to the life of Christ, and faithfully recorded what they heard and saw. Correction. Most of the New Testament writers never met or saw Jesus in their lives. They lived many years after Jesus left the Earth. They wouldn’t have known Jesus of Nazareth if they walked into him on the street. But... The Bible writers were great believers and great historians.

THEN HE IS NOT GOD!!! PROOF... HATE IS IMPERFECT, UNCLEAR AND INACCURATE... "THE TRUTH" IS ABSOLUTE, PERFECT AND CLEAR... "THE TRUTH" IS GOD... AND GOD IS LOVE!!! |
