Re: Why?

You have the entire creation, A God who died for your sins, the testimony of those who witnessed Him resurrected, His word, the testimony of believers. If you haven't heard any of these, then certainly you don't want to hear. You shouldn't attribute the entire creation to god. It may have happened ...

Re: Why?

I guess I don't believe that, deep down, we haven't made a choice (there is the whole age of accountability issue, sure). God would be unjust to condemn someone to hell, it seems to me, if that person truly was undecided. I do believe God knows all about me, and that He knew all about me before I w...

Re: Why?

I can't see love, but I know it exists. God testifies about Himself through all of creation, and if you refuse to see Him in it, that is your own choice. And who said He's keeping you out? Are you dead yet? He might keep you around until you're 106, until you accept Him; who knows. But there you ar...

Re: Why?

How about dealing with the rest of his posts? To simply repeat over an d over again that God isn't fair hasn't addressed the issue. You declare that you aren't evil. Many of my posts here haven't been addressed either. Look, I can't go any further into things until I get my head around why a god wo...

Re: Resurrection

Perhaps they thought the second coming was so eminent that there was no sense in writing what noone would be around to read. DB Didn't god inspire them, though? He would've known the second coming wasn't imminent - why wouldn't he have got them writing earlier? In order to get the word out and &quo...

Re: Why?

So you're saying I'm going to be banned for have a different opinion to you? lol, that'd just go to show how close-minded you are. The emoticons are there for a reason - to express yourself. But don't worry, I'm sure I'll pay the price in hell for rolling my eyes on the internet. I hope you see the ...

Re: Why?

You can be angry at God all you want, but that just gives Him another reason to condemn you. Why would He want to be with someone for all of eternity who hates Him? I wouldn't. I don't gather you would, either. Oh for g..... but he's also keeping out people like me, who DON'T hate him, we just don'...

Re: Why?

How else can you be made aware of Hell without God telling you about it? I was referring to god. I'm not aware he exists. Yes, the bible is there, but who's to say it's the word of god? Oh, the bible says so? That doesn't make it true. Because all people are evil. LOL - evil hey? OK, we might have ...

Re: Why?

And our ability to determine what's fair and not fair must've come from god, right? So if me believing it is wrong for god to send anyone to hell over such a petty thing - like not believing a book that claims to be the word of god - means I came to that conclusion based on what I've been given. He'...

Re: Why?

This is why religion will always be around. The concept of an all-knowing and powerful god means whenever someone's faith is threatened, they can say something like "oh but how do you know that, only god does". But what I believe is that if god really wanted us to be saved, he wouldn't hav...

Re: Why?

do you consider it a THREAT when a tells their child not to play in the street or they will get hit by a car, Santa? There is no difference in what the Bible says about Hell. It is simply informing you of what happens if you "play in the street" (that is, reject God). Secondly, you can sc...

Re: Why?

Um, if you don't 'accept Jesus' or whatever you're doomed. He's supposed to forgive your sins once you do, right? So if you don't believe in christianity, you're going to hell, wherever that is. It says so on your own site: http://www.faithalone.org/gospel.html As for your second point, IT'S SIMPLE!...

Re: Why?

Actually He is. He loves everyone very much and is trying to get them to see that. You know that feeling you get when you want answers, that's Him trying to get you to find them (though I may not be the best source in the world). I think of it like this, life without God to me is pointless. Get up,...

Re: Why?

Back then they didn't live very long, and yes two years, that should be enough. If you really cared about the subject, not just blew it off and said what ever (not that I am implying you have, talking form a 15 year old stand point) then you would have had enough time to come to that conclusion. Yo...
