if reincarnation is wrong what purpose in gods plan?

Question

does diseases such as cancer aids etc serve why do some people who are usually good souls get these terrible afflictions and others do not not suffer at all,why are these people singled out, unless it for the evolution of the soul through reincarnation it appears very unjust

Answer 1

According to the Christian religion, the plan is that

(1) First 'God' decided what sin is, some of which makes sense (killing, stealing) and some of which doesn't (masturbation, being gay). 'He' demanded strict adherence to 'his' laws, and also demanded to be worshiped and adored continuously just because 'he' is what 'he' is.

(2) Then 'God' created a place of eternal fire and endless suffering into which he could toss every soul who displeased 'him'. And instead of zapping the so-called "Satan" from the get-go, 'God' decided to let him hang around and make humans miserable and maybe even entice them to hell. You know, that would be like a mother knowing that there's a child molester in the neighborhood and turning her back while her children play in his yard.

(3) 'God' decided to send a messenger, 'his' son, knowing in advance that Jesus would be rejected by 'his' chosen people and would be killed by them (all of this is according to Christian belief). Although 'God' knew this would happen and apparently wanted it to happen, that didn't stop 'him' from getting in a snit about it, changing the rules, and deciding never to openly communicate with mankind again.

(4) 'God' next decided that everyone would have to believe that Jesus was 'his' son and died and came back from the dead -- nothing else in the human life experience would have any importance whatsoever.

(5) All that earlier business about being good and not sinning was drastically modified by 'God' -- 'he' changed ''his' mind; you could be mean and hurt people and do all kinds of terrible things and still win 'his' favor. All anyone had to do was simply believe in Jesus and that person, no matter how many lives he had destroyed, would be saved from hell and frolic happily hereafter in heaven.

(6) And now, after Jesus had come to be killed by the same people 'God' had chosen as 'his' own (all according to Christianity) morality no longer had any real importance -- since believing in Jesus is all there is -- all that's necessary to be saved. That means that no matter how good, decent, charitable, loving and moral you are, no matter how many lives you touched in positive ways, 'God' wants you to be in agony for all eternity, if you don't believe Jesus was 'his' son.

This is how Christians see 'God'.

From my point of view as a Reincarnationist, what Christians *fail* to see is that their irrational and superstitious beliefs slander and villianize the true God, who is perfection way, way beyond that counterfeit characterization of God in the bible.

Reincarnation is the Rosetta Stone that opens one's eyes to the perfection of the cosmos and God.

Answer 2

Reicarnation is just an hypothesis. It is not proven. You are only made to believe in it. It does not answer question of what happens to us when we die. The world is such a large place since human is free from direct rule of God then any affliction of man can only be by chance. This chance variation is accentuated by many factor ranging from genotype to phenotype. While a person may suffer from a severe common cold you will see others apparently untouched by the same virus. Immunity and home strenght variation in individuals can cause why some people have certain disease and why others dont have it. Reincarnation is purely non-scientific method of explaining what happens to a person after death. I believe what will happen is that God will change the present system of things and get hold of human rulership check the Book of Daniel 2:44, then Revelation chapter 21 verses 3 - 4. If you are a christian that will explain it the more. hope to hear from you again.

Answer 3

Why does it rain in some areas and then the sun shines in other areas (at the same time)? That's the way things are. It doesn't mean that one person is being punished or another person is being rewarded. Good and bad things happen to all people at various times in life. It might seem that more people have more bad luck than others, or that some have good luck and things always go their way, but it has nothing to do with God picking favourites -- although there are lots of people who will try and make others believe that they know the will of God for everybody and that they are blessed more than others.

Try to keep an open mind. Live and let live, etc., and enjoy each day for what it is.

Answer 4

Let me rephrase your question into 2 parts:
1. Does suffering make our life and God's plan meainingless?
2. Why do bad things happen to good people?
1.Any religion that believes in the afterlife and a merciful God who sometimes intervenes in this life also has the idea that suffering is eliminated for some. And what about the idea that people will avoid present responsiblities? Doesnt reincarnation give them a good excuse to do nothing?
Secondly, you ask the classic question "Why do bad things happen to good people"?

Answer 5

It's like this...if they tore every 'P' word outta the dictionary. Stopped putting on our keyboards, quit teaching the 1st graders how to write it, and frowned on anyone saying the word 'purpose' (or any other word with a 'p' in it). Then we would have people who would swear there is no such thing as 'p'. But some of us, would remember the truth!
So take my little analogy, thank King James & the Vatican, and know that they can't fool all of us!
Blessed Be....

Answer 6

evolution does not exist. the opposite does. de-evolution is the process where a perfect being placed in a perfect setting begins to deteriorate. cancer and aids are a part of the system breaking down. no one is singled out. cancer and aids serve no purpose what so ever, except for a sign that we may be going in the wrong direction.

Answer 7

Job was a good man who never sinned and terrible things happened to him. Ecclastics says time and unforseen events affect us all. We are given this things to make us strong and better christians. More compassionate. How could something you don't remember help you?
Those who are good and kind and meek. Will live forever on this earth in a beautiful paradise where there is no more war or suffering. Jesus said: The meek will inherit the earth

Answer 8

It doesn't seem like God wanted us to judge the world, or him, until we had lived a full life, died, and been resurrected. People are impatient with life. Reincarnation, and Resurrection are not the same, but are similar, in that they look for a way out of this world...alive...good luck with that plan thing...in the meantime, try to enjoy the world, and talk to God.

Answer 9

evolution of the soul doesn't have to be reincarnation , the soul could live eternally in spirit , progresses , learning and growing
this is my beliefs you see , that the soul/spirit is eternal and does go on until one day reaching the god source
in spirit there are many things to do , jobs to take , things to learn and even to help this world with science
i do feel however that a few souls may reincarnate if it is part of their growth in spirit but i don't feel this is many compared to the ones who continue in spirit world and i always feel that spirit would be free to choose this and not assigned to it or made to

'in case you purely opt for on the inspiration of what makes you experience sturdy' Aaaand it truly is the issue. you're assuming that we can not see any form of more effective sturdy for humanity only because we do not think in God - that we can not see some thing previous ourselves and our own egocentric desires. some theists fairly favor to end and imagine about how offensive it truly is - a lot more effective offensive than us declaring there is not any information of God. what's the point of having a route (faith) in case you comprehend on your heart that it is in preserving with a lie, and may want to't replace that? EDIT: "Why do you %. the more effective sturdy for humanity? Evolution would not care about humanity. isn't it only that the idea-about worrying for humanity makes you experience sturdy?" And once lower back, you're assuming - that we 'worship' evolution - that it is our 'purpose'. i did not even element out evolution. Evolution might want to no longer care about humanity, yet that does no longer recommend human beings won't be able to care about humanity. reality is, we are self-conscious and may want to upward push above the want for our genes to self-reflect - we are able to EMPATHY. only because we do not comprehend WHY we exist or WHY we are conscious does no longer recommend we do not have any purpose - it might want to be to stumble on out more effective about why we are right here. to attempt to stumble on comprehend-how, instead of pretending we already have it. (And if this makes you experience sturdy alongside the way, the position's the harm in that? It does no longer recommend it fairly is the only reason. you won't be able to tell me that no man or woman will develop into christian by using boastful experience of self-righteousness. there is an aspect of inner most delight in each and every thing that anybody does, and also you aren't any exception only because you believe in god.) And once lower back, none of this has some thing to do with no matter if there's a god. EDIT 2: "if you're searching for out why we are right here, then you really aren't from now on an atheist. there is not any why interior the atheist worldview." BOLLOCKS. you've only shown your actual colors i imagine, and that i do not see the point in discussing any more effective with you.
