Dear Megan, the Bible says that God creates evil.He doesn't has to create evil. He just creates it.


God is merciful, to those who kneel to Him. He has chosen that way. He created the world, He owns it, so He does as He pleases.


His choice is to make unbelievers and then make them suffer. Odd choice, but we owe Him our lives, so we got to do everything we can to please Him.


I have always wondered what happens in Heaven, if you do something that displeases the Lord. Will He cast you to Hell? Or is like a one time test, once you are in you never get out? My guess is just hypothetical, because we are so few that go into Heaven that obviously we know what pleases and displeases the Lord.
I always imagine myself going to talk with the ancestors, talking about how much we dislike the Jebusites and how much we like Jacob and how we hate Esau. And I imagine God smiling pleased by our conversations.


Of course, there is a reason why you and me cannot be gods. For example, I will chose to make people disappear instead of an eternity of suffering. An eternity is a lot of time, an people there in Hell maybe never heard about you, because you choose not to send a missionnaire there.
Or maybe they wore mixed fabric one day and forgot to repent. Or they sold their birthright because they were hungry.
Keeping them suffering a bazillion years is not enough, let's keep them for the eternity! Sounds harsh.
Then I remember God created the cows and gave us dominion over them so we can have barbeques, and smile, and thank, and pray without ceasing!


1 Thessalonians 4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the TRUMP of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first.

I think you have a fundamental misunderstanding of just how powerful Jesus is. If He wants to prevent someone from exercising their Free Will, like say the Pharaoh of old (Exodus 9:12), then He does so and no one can stop Him and it's perfectly perfect and good because He is Perfect and Good. If He wants to make reality such that we simultaneously have Free Will and have no Free Will, then that is reality because no one can stop Him and no one can change His Rules. In fact, the disciple John records just such a reality when Christ explains Salvation and our participation in such a Divine Event. We choose it, and yet Christ chooses for us (John 3:16;John 15:16). This is only because Jesus is so powerful and no one can stop Him.

So my advice is to stop worrying about irrelevant things like Free Will and start worrying about your impending Eternal Damnation.

Glory!

I know that is is a simple sport to mislead a Catholic, but you should take a little more care - you should realise how gullible they are. Jesus's simple Truth - a parable like the cursing of the Fig Tree for example, is far more appropriate.

I hope this helps…

Let me explain my thought. A person prays to God for help for two basic reasons - either because of being hurt by another human being, or due to some natural disaster/disease. The latter are beautiful acts of God who just wants to see people suffering loosing their possessions, families, and apparently He has a real thing for little children suffering and dying from cancer. So you'd be basically praying to God for Him to change His mind, and therefore make Him acknowledge that He was somehow wrong when He smote your house with a hurricane. Not a very smart thing.


However, if you are praying because you are being hurt by another human being, God -- according to your own definition of free will -- cannot interfere because He would be interfering with your tormentor's free will. Hence, God cannot reply to a prayer of a raped child. He cannot reply to a prayer of a beaten and starving slave. He cannot reply to a prayer of a tortured political prisoner. He cannot reply to a prayer of any innocent person suffering any sort of persecution - because that would be infringing on the free will of the people doing the persecution.


So basically, if the free will is so important, then prayer is meaningless.

Thank you for your lecture, Pastor Bathfire. It's always so humbling to read words of a person whose passionate faith cannot be changed by some pesky secular evidence.

I think it depends on who you ask does prayer have meaning? It can... depending on who. I found prayer to be uneffective I'd much rather take action.


Bad things happen to people all time...it's just a fact of life. It's the complex state of being human. We're not animals I believe God when he created life merely told the animals be what you are created to be except cats.


Did I mentioned I think cats are the best gift from God? They seem to do as they please...and all have different personalities. All of them are special in every way. I think good personally crafts each one then breaks the mold when he's done. They're just special.


I think he does the same for dogs...but only personality as they are man's best friend...


Sorry I just love animals.

This post contains and links to scientific evidence which is in discordance with the Biblical account of the creation of the world in six days. It relies on science rather than on faith. Reader discretion advised.

Miss Megan, it seems to me that you are one step from becoming atheist, or at least agnostic. You acknowledge, in some your other posts, that the Bible might not necessarily be the Word of God. I think you acknowledge, even though you have not stated it openly, that as humans we have no way of knowing which, if any, religion of the world is the correct view of God. Now you acknowledge that prayer is not effectual, which basically renders a divinity useless.


If all of the above is true, then why do you keep mentioning God at all? You seem to believe that He created the world and then left or got bored or maybe even died. The latter would seem plausible if we humans were truly made in His image, because dying is something that happens to all humans. Except for Utnapishtim, but Pastor Bathfire already covered that story as being a mere distortion of the Biblical Flood, even though historically the Babilonian version is much older than the Biblical one.


Quote:

This is very interesting. Do you think He knew exactly how the evolution was going to proceed, or did He let it loose like He did with human history? Because we do share a common ancestor with cats. This is it:



Source - a research summary in Nature magazine; link to the original Science article abstract; no full text of the latter article available, unless your library has a subscription.


Wasn't it cute? It was eating insects and it lived shortly after the mass extinction which wiped out most of the dinosaurs.

Quote:
Did I mentioned I think cats are the best gift from God?
Which ones?


This is the cat family tree; here is a link to a larger/more readable version. Original article in Nature where this picture appeared - again, you'll have to log in through your library.


And I would argue, that not all cats are so friendly towards humans... there are early hominid skulls with holes matching the teeth of saber toothed tigers, you know. Here is a link to a National Geographic article about various cat species and other predators eating our early ancestors.


Now, of course, if you were to believe in God, and in the Holy Bible as the Word of God, you could reject everything I cited here as a heresy which does not conform to the six days creation as outlined in Genesis.


But if you doubt that the Bible is the Word, then you have no excuse to reject the evidence of evolution, which definitively excludes the possibility of animal species as we know them today being created by God.

Except for Utnapishtim, but Pastor Bathfire already covered that story as being a mere distortion of the Biblical Flood, even though historically the Babilonian version is much older than the Biblical one.


This is very interesting. Do you think He knew exactly how the evolution was going to proceed, or did He let it loose like He did with human history? Because we do share a common ancestor with cats. This is it:



Source - a research summary in Nature magazine; link to the original Science article abstract; no full text of the latter article available, unless your library has a subscription.


Wasn't it cute? It was eating insects and it lived shortly after the mass extinction which wiped out most of the dinosaurs.

Which ones?


This is the cat family tree; here is a link to a larger/more readable version. Original article in Nature where this picture appeared - again, you'll have to log in through your library.


And I would argue, that not all cats are so friendly towards humans... there are early hominid skulls with holes matching the teeth of saber toothed tigers, you know. Here is a link to a National Geographic article about various cat species and other predators eating our early ancestors.


Now, of course, if you were to believe in God, and in the Holy Bible as the Word of God, you could reject everything I cited here as a heresy which does not conform to the six days creation as outlined in Genesis.


But if you doubt that the Bible is the Word, then you have no excuse to reject the evidence of evolution, which definitively excludes the possibility of animal species as we know them today being created by God.
I believe God created evolution just because he can and merely left it to it's own devices; I also believe heexists and watches what we do with the freewill he gave us. I do doubt the bible as being the ultimate word of God because again so many authors and cultures and such a span of time that It's mostly just questionable. It really reinforces the idea when we have countless examples in history of people using the bible as justification to sastify earthly desires.


It makes me question did God really command this or are we putting words into God's mouth?


As for prayer through experience I find it ineffectual.

Among Bible Students, this is known as “The Heresy of The Cornflakes.”

A man once asked “Why are all the little bits at the bottom of the cornflakes box?” and the atheist answered
“It is because all sizes of cornflakes are randomly put in the box in the factory and they are shaken about in their journey to your home. The smaller ones fall by gravity to the bottom through the holes between the larger ones.”

You will see that this denies any Godly involvement in the settling of cornflakes, and if we accept such a heresy, then we will end with questioning what He does all day, let alone asking why there is a need for God!

From this follows the slippery path to The Gates of Hell in which the weak and gullible are persuaded by atheists that as “nothing exists without a reason, there seems to be no reason for God and thus there is no reason for God to exist”! Outrageous!

But this is precisely what you have done!

How would it be possible to put any words into God’s mouth? We don’t know what He is going to say or do next – this would mean that all prophecies were so much garbage and like “horoscopes”.

God does not listen to the prayers of sinners (John:9:31). He does not listen to you; you are a sinner; therefore God exists.

(Of course, there is still debate as to whether this means that if you are a sinner and you pray for forgiveness, God will not hear you. To be on the safe side, simply don’t sin.

I hope this helps.)

Hello Miss Megan. You know, you can respond to bits of quoted text, just remember to wrap text in quote command either by highlighting the quoted bit and clicking on that little text icon next to the little picture icon, or by manually writing [quote] at the beginning of each quoted text and [/quote] at the end of it.

This is interesting. So what you are saying now is that God merely created the first prokaryote 3.7 billion years ago and then He let it go, and let life evolve however it wanted, with all of the dumb evolutionary dead ends ranging from the hybrid eels and other weird extinct species to the very unintelligent design of human body.


That statement stands in clear contradiction to what you said earlier, quote:

So which one is it? Did God simply create the first living organism and allowed the mechanisms of evolution to act, or did He create different species separately as they appear today?


If your current position, cited previously, is what you really believe, then you render God practically useless - someone who has no control over what's going on in the world. If your previous position, as cited above, is what you really believe, then you should discard evolution and join the anti-science Bible thumpers such as this lovely church. I do recommend the Landover church in this regard as they are the church which treats the Bible more seriously than any other Christian denomination - and you should treat Bible seriously if you are taking the Christian creationist perspective that God created all animal species.

That's a very creepy idea of God you have there. Please explain, in your opinion, why does He only watch and not interfere? Does He not interfere because He actually enjoys watching humans inflicting pain on other humans, or because He's powerless and cannot interfere? If the former is correct then He is disgusting and not worthy of our worship. If the latter is correct than He's useless and worshiping Him is useless.

Well, here's your problem: religions in general and Christianity/the Bible specifically are the only evidence we have that God exists. If you reject the Bible, or any other sacred text of any other religion, as a reliable proof of God's existence, then you are left without any evidence for His existence whatsoever - since science explains the origin of universe and the origin of life without any supernatural intervention.

Have we encountered same sex couples dancing at Homeschoolers Proms? That is a topic that should be discussed on detail here.

What security measures can be taken? What fines or penalties can be levied?
