There is too much pain and suffering in this world that so many innocents endure to believe there is a God that loves us like a parent would.
Why does He allow it? Or, seeing as how He knows the future, He did so from the beginning. Is it some kind of sadistic thing?
Mankind rejected God in the Garden, and brought this pain and death on us. Jesus salvation is the way out. We will never understand the reasons why it works like it does. at least not outside of Heaven. The point is getting there. Once this world is destroyed, it will never be brought to remembrance again.
NO! Adam and Eve rejected God. We should NOT be punished because they were stupid! God is wrong for doing so!
Seems to me you are rejecting God. Been in anybody elses heart and mind lately to find out if they are rejecting God? Or if they only seem like they are rejecting God.
From what I've understood we're paying for Adam and Eve's sins. And that's not cool.
How about if you were to be put in prison because someone you don't know, you've never met and is in another country did something you're not guilty of?
Actually, this doesn't seem to matter to you... that we might be paying for the sins of someone else. Why not? Because you reject the way out, which is to have faith in the salvation made by Jesus Christ.
Adam and Eve accepted Jesus (though they may not have known Him by that name). So, you show that you welcome sins worse than Adam and Eve committed, because you won't accept the only way out... Jesus. You are self-condemned.
Adam and Eve accepted Jesus?
But... He was not even born ? oO
And we wouldn't need salvation if God hadn't threw humanity out of Eden..
Who do you think was walking in the Garden in the cool of the day. It was Jesus-God.
Meh? Jesus-God? Why the "-"?
And Jesus existed in the Eden then was born again on Earth after?
And God needed to get Marie pregnant? That's fucking gross! You imagine?
Hey, it's the only salvation you have. No matter what you think about it, get yourself saved, or you will wind up looking a thousand times more gross in Hell.
So it's basically blackmail?
Where the fuck is the love in a god saying "you got the choice, burn and suffer for the eternity or praise and worship me. Your choice. But I'm a generous and good will god for sure".
God doesn't need any of us. Out of love He went to a lot of trouble to save us. It isn't blackmail. It is freedom. Choose life.
In lot of trouble?
It's GOD! He's supposed to have absolute power! He can't just "have trouble" how could he??? He just has to think about something so this thing happen! Aren't you in total contradiction with the image of God of Christians?
You don't understand the greatness God is giving us.
Can God contradict God? If He could, what would it look like if absolute power were contradicting absolute power?
God is not contradicting Himself. He absolutely is using His absolute power in the things He is doing with us. God has given us absolute power with Him. We are the ones that are contradicting God, each other, and ourselves.
Why don't we see the absolute power in ourselves? Because we are at the first wisps of the beginning of it. How can we, simple human mortals, be brought into the absolute power of God? The way it is happening to those of us who accept, is the only way that it can be done.
You are not thinking clearly.
