Re: Question Time
Since God is omniscient (that means all-knowing) and omnipotent (all-powerful), everything that happens must be His Will.Originally posted by Watashi Wa Nihongo View Post
Since all things that happen are the Will of God, because He knows they will happen and either causes or allows them to happen, they are all Acts of God.
Whether an act of commission or an act of omission is the question . . . The answer? What's the difference? God's Will has been done, regardless!
Bible boring? Nonsense!

Re: Question Time
Everything is ultimately an act of God.Originally posted by Watashi Wa Nihongo View Post
It may appear that a man or the environment started something but it is though Gods beautiful guidance we are where we are.
It may seem like the rain washed the dirt away from around a boulder and that a man pushed that boulder off a cliff but it is by Gods love that a car full of heathens was driving by and crushed by the falling boulder. Did not God make the rain? God make it possible for the man to exist and be at that spot, to leverage Gods boulder? As well as the heathens in the car, was it not obvious to God that they were never going to to repent and were going to Hell anyways?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?
Numbers 21:6 And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died.
Matthew 10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
Matthew 10:35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
Matthew 10:36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.Comment

Re: Question Time
For those of you who haven't gone up to heaven yet, I know you'll probably have heard it before but I want to know the answer:
If everything is down to God, surely he makes people bad; surely he makes atheists not believe; surely he makes people homosexual; surely if you damn homosexuals for being that way you are damning God for making them that way?Comment

Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?

God created everything, without exception. That doesn't mean He loves everything.Isaiah 45:7
I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.
People send themselves to hell. Jesus just laughs at them.
