Before you start making an assumption, please read through the entire thing before you attack me for questioning God's plan or what not. I was already punished (name changed from 'Whyhate' to 'I hate' and now considered a 12-year old hatemonger) because someone assumed I was telling God what to do. I'm asking this in curiosity and I am wanting to hear your opinions in this matter since I can't really start a thread anywhere else.
I have no intention of starting a debate. This is merely my curiosity to you and I am hoping you'll try to give your opinions in a calmly matter. I am obviously uneducated when it comes to the bible, so please provide me any textual evidence that you have. I'm only curious about YOUR thoughts. If I somehow offended you, I apologize.
I know that God has reminded us that his his thoughts are not ours. ‘For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,’ says the LORD. ‘For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts’” (Isaiah 55:8-9). But that doesn't mean I can't wonder, right? That's the reason he gave me a brain to think. Unless you have textual evidence that we are not allowed to use it . . .
It's been stated in the Bible that God is all-knowing and all powerful, so why does he not take the time to eliminate the Devil to help his children get to him safely if he loved us?
*Satan is an obstacle we must overcome
But why? If he loved us so much why does he make us go through the intense pain of getting to Him? Maybe it's because that's the reason. To make us go through the pain so that we know that we need Him. But why do that? Is he afraid of something? For what purpose does it serve to have outside, corrupt influence sneaking up on us to drag us down to the pit of hell and 'suffer' for eternity because Satan managed to slip us off the road to Him?
*God is waiting for the perfect time for Satan's 'defeat'
Why wait? What is he trying to prove? Or is that questioning God's plan?
*We don't know God's plan
If that's all your mind thinks, then please do not bother taking the precious time that you have by giving me your opinion with that.
