You are a real piece of work.
Well, that's just common sense (something you have a dire lack of). He loves us all, those that respond to His love, do His will out of a love back (we are the ones that GET IT), those that don't respond to His love, well, He is smart/powerful enough to cause them (through circumstances or implanted thoughts or whatever) to do things He wants them to do, in order for the things to happen that He wants to happen, that will move His Kindom in the direction He wants. The one thing He won't force them to do (for lack of a better term), is to Love Him, because that's the one thing He wants us to choose to do on our own. It's so easy...where are you falling off?

God gets to us God shows us Himself , God Loves us and we love Him back, enough to WANT to give our money, and our time and ourselves . That's the whole big enormous miraclous thing. We have a free will, yet we choose to do His will over ours.

But that doesn't work for those who don't love God!!!
The real God, does beg and plead for our very souls, I mean, let's face it, He died for us! It's not that we don't see how He could do things your way, it's just that that's not the way He does it. Sure He has mercy on who He wants to have mercy...that's all of us. For the death of Jesus to not have been for my brother, who's unsaved, but it was for me, is an abomination. That God you serve, who created people just to make them suffer for eternity, sounds more like satan. My God created and gave all people the opportunity to serve Him for eternity in heaven.Kateliz wrote:
I think you guys don't understand how God can do things this way, and because of that only see this other option of how God could work. God can do this and retain His nature. The Righteous Judge and Merciful One can at any time, retaining His nature, (even expressing it,) give mercy to some and not to others.
I'm signing off of this thread Kateliz. Have at it.
