God had a reason for everything.... or did he?

Question

What of the concept of a "learning god"? One who maybe screwed up a few times in the Old Testament and had to get a good talking-to from various prophets along the way? I learned of this concept from a Rabbi and it just fits so well! God created us in his image -- we assume physical but why not also mental? Did he create us as imperfect beings becasue he too is that way?

Perhaps I should answer that I am not Jewish, but instead a practicing.... something else (it's irrelevent). Whether or not the Rabbi is reputible, thoughtful and an extremely educated man is not in question.

Answer 1

I think we all need to look within and learn why we are "imperfect". I think the reason we are not perfect is because we are confused by our presence in this world. We are confused by our desires, drives and experiences. We dont know who to trust. We want to trust others, but we dont know how much to trust them. By knowing yourself as deep as you possibly can, you may realize that more and more what you really want in this life, and, others want to it too. Look within, break as many boundaries and walls as you can, and encourage others to do the same.

Answer 2

Reducing GOD to humanities limitations is a favorite pass time among humans. GOD really does not care what we think of him. GOD cares for us. GOD is GOD and as such has not changed in his love for us. We change how we feel about GOD as often as we change our hair color.
I have never heard a prophet give GOD any points on humanity, like he didn't understand us and our customs. What nerve to assume God needs any pointers from HIS creations. What some rabbits explained to GOD about some rabbitness that GOD didn't understand? The trees? The fish?
Humans are the only creatures that GOD gifted with FREE WILL. In the hopes of someday having a people that understand the concepts HE made, and are following GOD willingly, not as puppets or robots.
So, I think GOD has a reason for everything. I also think that humans will never understand HIS plan. Humanity should spend more time LIVING as GOD wants, and stop thinking of GOD as a human. I am sorry - you think: "God created us in his image -- we assume physical but why not also mental?" - I mean just look at how stupid we are, without our tools, (we have great tools.) we have not grown at all. We kill, hurt each other both physically and mentally daily, mistrust each other, and you possibly think GOD is like this? Like us? I'm hope few will really think like this.

Answer 3

I undergo in innovations a passage in a e book that i've got faith became titled, "why undesirable issues ensue to stable human beings." In there became an analogy between God and the mothers and fathers of a woman who wanted to verify the thank you to ice-skate. The analogy in touch the make certain's determination. they might carry the newborn via the hands so as that the skates slightly touched the ice and be sure that the newborn does not fall and harm themself. Or, they might carry the newborn via the hand, understanding finished nicely that the newborn would fall, yet helping the lady study the thank you to skate on her very own. the lady would fall, even though it rather is to no longer say that the mothers and fathers "pushed" her. It wasn't that God began the hearth and killed the ladies, only that he's responsive to that in case you by no ability fall, you will by no ability study to come back up. i be responsive to it form of appears like an undemanding analogy for this form of tragedy, yet I nevertheless think of it applies. besides, people who have faith in god even have faith that those little ones are in a extra useful place -- so the "fall" (utilising the ice-skating analogy) could be to those around the little ones, no longer the little ones themselves. And in case you do no longer have faith in God and heaven, then the newborn's deaths have been only organic order and little need in getting your panties in a gaggle. EDIT: understand that my answer became simplified. in case you're intense approximately pursuing the concern, check out the e book.

Answer 4

mmmmmmmmmmm, not really. I believe in God who is all knowing. Reread those passages with another Rabbi - the prophets certainly talked back to God and even gave God a talking to, but that didn't change God.

Answer 5

Yes Allah as the one only God has reason for everything.Allah is the most peffect .Allah has no beginning and no ending.We are created by Allah. phisically and mentaly.We are all not perfect.We have many shortcomings.Allah blew the spirit when the baby still in a mother's womb in pregnant for 120 days.God decided the baby's destiny or fate but he/she does not know during his/her life.God created us for dedicating to Allah and obeying Allah's instructions.But satans will always tempting us.Satans have bad intentions.Satans are evil who will carry us to hell.We should learn Allah by reciting Al Qur'an including Hadith and its translation and implementing it in our daily life..

Answer 6

When you speak that way, you are indangering yourself with God this way...

Mark 3:29 But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation.

God is perfect in all ways. He has a plan for us, but it is us who can either choose to follow His plan or not. That is part of the free will he has given us.What makes us imperfect beings is sin.
But acceptance of Jesus as our savior washes and cleanses us of our sins. And we must repent of our sins every day because we sin everyday. God is very forgiving that way.
He used His son as a way for us to escape the wages of sin being death, and allowed Jesus, his son to died in place of our selves for our sins.

Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

God is not a learning God but is our creator and is all knowing. We are the ones who are learning, not God. Your rabbi should know that. You must read the bible for yourself and not just listen to what your rabbi says. If you just listen with out studying for yourself, you are setting yourself for a very bad fall. A fall away from the Lord.
2 Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

The word "rightly dividing" means to fully understand God's word. And you can only do that through your studying of God's word every day.

Answer 7

If spirit and intent of translated bible verse "All things to glorify god" is upheld then?
and it also says in the beginning was the word and then (by capitalization in times new roman font) the WORD became god. notice name TODD.

as my followers note its kind of crazy but follows scripture as all things to glorify HIM. (and times new roman font works best)

EMPEROR
GOD
GODDESS
KING
LORD
LADY
ANGEL
GENERAL
DEATH
HADES
BAT
TAP
STOP
ETC...

ALL THINGS THAT GLORIFY(SPREAD FAME) OF HIM considering reading between the lines they all pertain to a LARRY TODD S. with arm cuts appearing IIII I . And born 1968.9.I7 which is shown in 123456789 upside down when 4 appears as h upsidedown. where 7 upside down is a leg and 5 upside down is ear and 2 upidedown is a face so it reads 68 leg 9 ear I7 E face I and god is I. thus the face of god.

Thus spiritually read between the lines of those words like QUEEN=QU[iL[iLIV.

so on paper and in real life god has been revealed so no excuse for your insolence except jealousy that you ain't HIM, and based on accepted WAR ....

Answer 8

Well then god isn't omniscient, and he probably isn't omnipotent. Which, while just as valid a theory as any other, doesn't agree with popular monotheism.

Answer 9

Yes, He did.

Answer 10

It's believable
