Why is God given credit for the good in his creation but not the bad, after all he created it all?

Question

So why the blame is not placed on the creator instead of the creation, remember he created Satan also and Jesus and sin and the law of sin, but without giving the creation a full understanding of either, you see earth because you live here and heb left heaven and hell to the imagination

It’s not like that, he created all the bad and good things that happen when he created his creation, so I am saying he deserves credit for all the bad he created that is perfect to his creation

it's your ow...
I think you really don’t understand the question, and he we are to do his will, that surly we have given up our will

Your right man has not evolved in his mind, as far as humanity, and the name old the game is I have the gold and I make the rules, people are still starving as they did when Jesus walked the earth, so man is incapable of changing as a whole, because they are afraid of loosing their crumbs

Answer 1

I think they should have a best question catagory on here and i think your question should win.

Answer 2

That kind of thinking you're using is the exact kind of thinking your father Satan used when he tried to build a rebellion against God.

SPOILER: The end of it - Satan lost. Satan and his fellow fallen angels being far superior to mankind in power and losing to God can tell you how far humanity would get. Nowhere.

Man loves (as Satan directs sinful man) to blame God for his own woes. This is the same spirit of Cain who asked God, "Am I my brother's keeper?" in order to throw off any responsibility for his own actions.

MANKIND has made the hell of man's cruelty to man and that includes diseases as well as brutality. Religion even can not be blamed as atheistic minded people murder just like anyone else.

Does it somehow take the guilt off you for not helping the suffering in the world? One man can only do so much - but if humanity would find complete unity to be responsible for each other - suffering and misery would be almost unheard of, or at best not even a 1000th of what it is now.

Answer 3

Are you really that stupid??? He is given credit, just not in a very visible way. Take the creation of the earth. As He created the light, the stars, the moon, the planet itself, the animals, after everything He created He said it was good. But when He created man, He did NOT say this. That is because He knew we were gonna fail, and in this knowing He took credit for it by not acknowledging us as good.

Answer 4

Ironically, I see God as often blamed for all the BAD ("Why did you let this happen? Why is there so much evil in the world? Why did those people die on 911? Why isn't my face prettier? Why isn't it easier for me to lose weight? Why don't I have a girlfriend, I'm a nice guy!")...

In my experience, he usually is NOT credited with all the good. People usually just complain about what he didn't do.

Anyway, I know you've probably thought about "free will" before. Basically, God had the choice between the "perfect world" and the possibility of chaos, and he decided to risk the latter by giving us the ability to choose.

Why?

Because of love.

If we don't have free will, we can't choose to love him; his love means nothing. We're just robots. You probably have experienced this relationships yourself. You can't be made to "love" someone, you have to choose it or it's not really love.

So God risked a perfectly efficient, coldly beautiful world so that he might gain something better -- a loving relationship with people.

Some will destroy beauty, out of ignorance or malice. Some will choose to preserve and nurture it, out of love.

I prefer to see God as "good" because of what he risked to have a real relationship with us, rather than calling him "bad" for not eradicating the possibility of evil by removing free will from all of us and making us slaves.

Answer 5

Personally i feel it's because people only see what they want to see, if they admit that the world is a bad place then how can anyone see the love.............

I feel that there are only bad things because people allow most of it, and people who follow religions want to stop all the bad things, hence why they see beauty.

If PEOPLE treated the world better then it would be a beautiful place.

Also i think by not telling us the meaning of life was in a way giving us free will, if we we rent allowed to chose our lives then there would be any good and bad, and hence no law of sin.....

That's what i think anyway!

Answer 6

God has nothing to do with us on earth. You have to make your decisions and try to do the best you can. The after life is where the decisions are made by him. When you hear people say it's Gods will, that's not correct. God gave man free will and it is what man/woman does with that free will that decides where they will be. God doesn't want pain or suffering from us, but we put it upon ourselfs and that's when people curse or loose faith.
I could tell you more if you wish.

Answer 7

First, the bible talks of how heaven and hell are. Open the pages and read. As far as good and bad. Read again. Nowhere in the bible does it say, after he created man, that he saw it was good. Nowhere. Nope, not once. We have something called "freedom of choice" maybe you need to be a little more educated before you ask such elemntary questions.

Answer 8

you're right God did create all and he allows "bad" things to happen just as he allows good to occur. people just don't like to think that a loving god would do such a thing..but in the same way as parents allow children to go through tough times in order to learn and grow, so too does our Father in Heaven.

As for leaving heaven and hell to the imagination, given that they are spiritual realms or theological concepts rather than actual places, where else could they be??? humans do not, i think, have the intellect to grasp the concept of infinity so therefore cannot truly grasp heaven and hell. God exists outside of time, and so "forever" is not a concept that applies to Him.

Some things are not "black and white" or totally finite - for them to be so leaves no room for faith and a belief in God and His works, His plan and His Will require us to act in faith.

We out our faith in all sorts of things, so why not in Him. Only He has all the answers :) may His peace be upon you and God Bless. :)

Answer 9

God created a world for us to live in and survive..but also the ability to create our own evils. If there was never any bad...how would you recongnize the good. Be thankful for living not complaining about things you can not control...If you can change it..then do so.

Answer 10

The answer is that He does take credit for it all. "I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil" (KJV). Isaiah 45:7. People don't accept this because it is a hard truth to accept. But, it is clear that God takes responsibility for everything that happens.

Answer 11

Because it is our own actions that cause the bad to happen. Someone can create a child and give it all the teachings of how to be a good person, and the child is still misbehaving. It is just part of us to do that.
