God is rich in mercy and ready to forgive our sin if we accept it and confess to Him with faith in Jesus alone. God will wipe away our old sinful nature and grant us a new life through the holy spirit. God bless you

and i honestly laughed when it was a billy grahm vid. But now i know forever more that he was and is a Saint

Very interesting point. 'any normal person would tell God to go to hell' Abraham met God. He was a God fearing man who understood what God was capable of and also how pure God is. He also would have seen the intelligence of God. If God was all knowing and if God is to be the only one who can judge then who is Abraham to say that it is wrong for him to sacrifice his son. God is righteous and fair, the way you have twisted this to fit your own agenda is wrong, and essentially disrespectful. But I also wanted to ask, what is your faith?

Predestination- The very notion that an omniscient God who knows everything including the thoughts and motives, noble and ulterior, of every human being that has ever, or will ever be born means that everything must be predestined by him. He knows before you are born everything that will happen to you and whether you will be a fit person to live in his fantasy land in the sky after your death. If he can look into the future what is the purpose of a judgment at some later stage, why would he judge us if he knows everything beforehand, is it so the godly can gloat over being smarter than the rest of us because they passed some test? If the punishment for not following his multitude of rules is that we suffer being burned forever then why not consign us to that destination immediately upon our demise, why the judgment process? In fact, if this all knowing presence knows the outcome of our fate before we are born then why permit us to be born at all? He only wants the pure of heart to live in his Heaven, that seems to be his ultimate goal, so instead of allowing us to live a life of temptation and sin (which offends him) why doesn't he look into the future of each of his creations and select the good from the bad before they complete their lives of sin, which he must already know about if he is truly omniscient? This is just one small area of question about the personality of this so called God, there are thousands of other parts of his attitude towards humankind which should be examined in detail. If he created us just so he could allow us to be tortured for eternity then he is sadly deficient in the sense of justice that he has supposedly imprinted on the minds of most human beings.

​​​@@Lili-BenoventYou see, when God wanted to make man, he said "let us make man in our image, after our likeness." That statement tells us that it is God desire that we be made just like him. Being just like God means we behave just like He behaves, think like He thinks, talk like He talks, sees things just the way He sees them and so on. Now God created Adam and Eve, the word "to create" comes from the Hebrew word "Bara" meaning to bring into existence what wasn't in existence before. God's will was to "make" man become like God. The word "to make" comes from the Hebrew word "asher". Now to create can happen in a day (Gen 1:27) but to make a thing, takes a process. Take for instance you want to make a blender, creating a blender into its shape and structure is one aspect but making it to grind food items, serving it's main purpose is another and that is a process, which doesn't happen in a day or two. So God created man, yes, but His was to "make" man just like Himself and that takes a process. God created Adam and Eve and kept them in the garden with a desire to keep working on them until they become just like Him. See, it was never the desire of God that man be they way they are today. God has always wanted to "make" us just like himself. God told man to have dominion over the earth, meaning God desired everything good for us to enjoy. Now God gave us a choice and Adam chose to disobey knowing that God instructed him to not eat of the fruit that comes from the tree of knowledge of good and evil because if they do, they will surely die. Yet Adam knowing only God (cause the bible said that Adam spoke and talked with God in the cool of the evening) decided to do something God told him not to do knowing that the consequences is "You will surely die." What is more scarier that doing something you know will surely kill you? And that's the problem with many of us Christians, we complain a lot saying that God is this and that, believing that God doesn't love us and desires nothing good for us yet that is SUCH A LIE! God has planned everything out for us already, everything good and perfect ONLY IF WE CAN JUST OBEY HIM. If you think God is at fault then who do you think is right, the devil? Who deceives and manipulates? Whose sole desire is to make the life of man a living hell? Now Christ has come and died for us, and the moment we accept Him and live in Christ, following His principles, everything God has so desired comes to fulfillment. Every blessing, favour and even being like God, all are found in Jesus Christ. This is why Jesus is not "a way" but "the only way". The only way into what God has so desired for man, which is "TO BE EXACTLY LIKE HIM AS HE HAD DESIRED FROM THE VERY BEGINNING OF CREATION." I really do pray you change your mindset and let go of everything, whether occurrences or events that makes you look at God like it's His fault and all. Listen, everything you desire, you can find them all in God through Christ Jesus. But you see, you will have to obey Him first. I will live you with this scripture - John 15:7 [7]If you live in Me [abide vitally united to Me] and My words remain in you and continue to live in your hearts, ask whatever you will, and it shall be done for you. GOD TRULY LOVES US AND HAS PLANNED THE BEST FOR US BUT ONLY IN CHRIST JESUS WHEN WE BELIEVE AND FOLLOW HIS PRINCIPLES (BE OBEDIENT), WHICH ARE FOUND IN HIS WORD. (Now the consequences of not obeying Him are all the evil that you see befalling mankind on this earth.) See Joshua 1:8 [8]This Book of the Law shall not depart out of your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, that you may observe and do according to all that is written in it. For then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall deal wisely and have good success. See Psalms 1:1-3 [1]BLESSED (HAPPY, fortunate, prosperous, and enviable) is the man who walks and lives not in the counsel of the ungodly [following their advice, their plans and purposes], nor stands [submissive and inactive] in the path where sinners walk, nor sits down [to relax and rest] where the scornful [and the mockers] gather. [2]But his delight and desire are in the law of the Lord, and on His law (the precepts, the instructions, the teachings of God) he habitually meditates (ponders and studies) by day and by night. [Rom. 13:8-10; Gal. 3:1-29; II Tim. 3:16.] [3]And he shall be like a tree firmly planted [and tended] by the streams of water, ready to bring forth its fruit in its season; its leaf also shall not fade or wither; and everything he does shall prosper [and come to maturity]. [Jer. 17:7, 8.] See Romans 8:1-2 [1]THEREFORE, [there is] now no condemnation (no adjudging guilty of wrong) for those who are in Christ Jesus, who live [and] walk not after the dictates of the flesh, but after the dictates of the Spirit. [John 3:18.] [2]For the law of the Spirit of life [which is] in Christ Jesus [the law of our new being] has freed me from the law of sin and of death. GOD LOVES YOU AND I HOPE YOU WILL ALLOW HIM TO SHOW YOU JUST HOW MUCH AND HOW DEEP!!!

GOD’S CRIMES - Lili You tell them all about your Lord, they laugh behind your back You know you’re destined for Paradise but what of those you love? They’ll writhe in pain in the bowels of Hell, whilst you watch from above Will you feel their agony and anguish as they suffer, or will you join the pack? The pack of those who lose their love when Jesus makes his claim Where is the love in Paradise, your conscience is to blame? - Or will you lose your conscience in the golden glory of your Lord Or will you begin to doubt, the infallibility of his mind? As you see your loved ones tortured, for striving just to live He breaks the vessels made in love with evil wrath so blind As years roll by in Eternity perhaps you’ll forget God’s crimes But deep down within your heart you’ll remember better times. - For anything would be better than a Tyrant hard and cruel Who watches every moment, every thought his tenants think And if they lapse for just a blink they’re driven to his throne Made to beg forgiveness, made to grovel on the brink The brink of the fiery flames of Hell, destiny for those who can’t atone But why atone when family waits? Better Hell than Heaven shown. - They talk of some strict testing but we should test this evil God His jealous mind craves control, control and unfettered hate He talks of love but it’s not love when he burns imperfect souls And not just once, for Eternity, reveling in their pain, This holy reprobate If you believe this strange God exists, it’s time to review your goals. @@miraclenathanielnwankwo2903
