Several questions for you

[Questionerofstuff]

This thread assume that you are serious about what you are saying on this forum. If not please tell me. Otherwise it is extremely worrying.

First: One argument that I have seen mentioned quite a bit here is that if something is not in the bible it is not true/unholy.

My problem with this is that all/most things after the time the bible was written are not mentioned in the bible.

Second: You say the earth is flat. Please explain how it can be circumnavigated(sailed/traveled around)

Third: This is really more a philosophical question but how do you explain evil in the world? Assuming that god is all knowing, all powerful and all good, how can evil exist? Some of it can be explained by the fact that it may be character building or something like that. Some of it can be explained by the fact that having free will means people can choose to be evil.

Why is there evil that is completely unnecessary. For instance: What if someone who is not a person who has chosen to do evil things dies a horrible, horrible, incredibly painful death and this death is not seen by anyone, for that matter not ever detected by anyone anywhere. The death is entirely meaningless and at the same time horribly horribly painful. Why does god not stop such pointless deaths/ and other unnecessary evils?


While making this post I have noticed some of the smiles available for messages on this forum and am increasingly skeptical of all of your topics being serious.

As serious as a heathen with a heart attack. Jesus is not a joke.

Not at all. We use the Internets to save repulsive sinners and it's not in the Bible. But as True Christians™, we always look to Scripture to see if the inventions of man are Godly or not. Take the fraudulent lie of evolution; it directly contradicts His Word and is therefore a crutch of the wicked homosexuals and God-haters that want to sin without consequences.

Second: You say the earth is flat. Please explain how it can be circumnavigated(sailed/traveled around)

"Circumnavigation" is a contrivance of Satan for the gullible. I have traveled to nearly every insignificant country on earth and returned home without leaving the plane of this geodisc. Have you?

We do not question God here. He speaks for Himself.

If you had bothered to use the Search Function you would have found the answers to your questions.

We're as serious as the resurrection of Christ.

First: One argument that I have seen mentioned quite a bit here is that if something is not in the bible it is not true/unholy.

Such as? Sure technology has advanced, I'll give you that. But the basics of human culture remain the same. So any form of technology can be looked at in the light of "does it promote God and a True Christian(TM) life?" if not, then yes it is unholy.

Second: You say the earth is flat. Please explain how it can be circumnavigated(sailed/traveled around)

It's a flat circle. If you had bothered to actually read the thread, you would of noticed that it is easy to circumnavigate a circle, especially when you use the north pole/star as your navigation point. It's just like drawing a circle using a compass.

Third: This is really more a philosophical question but how do you explain evil in the world? Assuming that god is all knowing, all powerful and all good, how can evil exist? Some of it can be explained by the fact that it may be character building or something like that. Some of it can be explained by the fact that having free will means people can choose to be evil.

Again, if you had ever read your Bible, you would know that God created evil.

Isaiah 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.

Amos 3:6 Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it?

Lamentations 3:38 Is it not from the mouth of the Most High That both good and ill go forth?

Why is there evil that is completely unnecessary. For instance: What if someone who is not a person who has chosen to do evil things dies a horrible, horrible, incredibly painful death and this death is not seen by anyone, for that matter not ever detected by anyone anywhere. The death is entirely meaningless and at the same time horribly horribly painful. Why does god not stop such pointless deaths/ and other unnecessary evils?

So you're saying that you know better than God?

I suggest you read Job 38-42. How do you know that evil is completely unnecessary? How do you know that a painful death is meaningless?

While making this post I have noticed some of the smiles available for messages on this forum and am increasingly skeptical of all of your topics being serious.

You're basing your view of us on our smiles? Of course we couldn't have certain smiles for sarcastic reasons, or used for some pastors message that has long been buried, no that couldn't be the reason, could it. Instead you will just decide that we're not serious rather than look at the message we bring and check to see whether or not we are Biblically accurate.

You are certainly a rude individual - you don't come here with you stupid questions on you first post. Go to the Introduction section and introduce yourself. Also read http://www.landoverbaptist.net/showthread.php?t=5610 before posting again you filthy piece of unsaved trash.

What is there not to take seriously about the Word of God? We follow the KJV1611 to the letter and if that offends you, then take your issues of weakness up with Him!

First: One argument that I have seen mentioned quite a bit here is that if something is not in the bible it is not true/unholy.

Considering the KJV1611 is THE TRUTH, our argument is valid. Are you denying the inerrant Word?

My problem with this is that all/most things after the time the bible was written are not mentioned in the bible.

MANY things that happened after the Bible was compiled have come to fruition. That is what Biblical Prophecy is all about. This PROVES God's Truth and His knowledge of ALL.

The remarkable evidence of fulfilled prophecy is just one case in point. Hundreds of Bible prophecies have been fulfilled, specifically and meticulously, often long after the prophetic writer had passed away.

For example, Daniel the prophet predicted in about 538 BC (Daniel 9:24-27) that Christ would come as the promised Savior 483 years after the Persian emperor would give the Jews authority to rebuild Jerusalem, which was then in ruins. This was clearly and definitely fulfilled, hundreds of years later. How did Daniel KNOW this if it were not for God guiding his thoughts?

There are extensive prophecies dealing with individual nations and cities and with the course of history in general, all of which have been literally fulfilled. More than 300 prophecies were fulfilled by Christ Himself at His first coming. Other prophecies deal with the spread of Christianity, as well as various false religions. People like Daniel and Isaiah (just to name two) were not soothsayers and charlatans and the proof is that the events they prophecized happened as God said they would.

Second: You say the earth is flat. Please explain how it can be circumnavigated(sailed/traveled around)

THAT has been covered time and time again. To be frank with you, I for one get sick and tired of those coming in here asking the same questions over and over, without taking the time to READ the answers that have already been given.

Third: This is really more a philosophical question but how do you explain evil in the world? Assuming that god is all knowing, all powerful and all good, how can evil exist? Some of it can be explained by the fact that it may be character building or something like that. Some of it can be explained by the fact that having free will means people can choose to be evil.

God gave us free will for a reason. Some people side with satan (AKA = EVIL) but others (like we True Christians) are always on the side of God.

Why is there evil that is completely unnecessary. For instance: What if someone who is not a person who has chosen to do evil things dies a horrible, horrible, incredibly painful death and this death is not seen by anyone, for that matter not ever detected by anyone anywhere. The death is entirely meaningless and at the same time horribly horribly painful. Why does god not stop such pointless deaths/ and other unnecessary evils?

Your hypothetical is just silly. How could someone die a painful death what has not been detected or seen by any human and you be talking about it? Perhaps as you didn't see anything happen God may well have intervened and that person actually lives. You are just none the wiser to that fact.

While making this post I have noticed some of the smiles available for messages on this forum and am increasingly skeptical of all of your topics being serious.

If you don't like some of the smilies, no one is forcing you to use them. Gee you whine about the most pedantic things.

Also, it is common courtesy around these parts to write an introduction of yourself in the INTRODUCTION FORUM. Please take yourself over and do so immediately, or are you the type to rush into someone's home and make yourself at home? If so, that is the height of rudeness.

Well, my Brothers and Sisters in Christ already answered your questions, but I just wanted to say that I have a write-up on the Epicurean dilemma in this thread that you may want to look at.
