Since God (christian) is omnipotent and omniscient, he could easily stop every sin that has, is, or will be committed. Considering it is almost as bad to allow an evil act that you could prevent as to commit the act yourself, doesn't that make God himself the worst possible sinner, bearing partial responsibility for every sin, ever?

It's a contradiction in terms. Illogical and impossible. The definition of sin is an act that goes against God's will. So by definition God cannot sin because any act of His is automatically His will.
God gave us free will. He gave us free will so that there could be love in the world. How could love exist without free will?

Well, if you think about it, sin is pretty meaningless to an omniscient omnipotent being who can create, destroy and alter the universe at his whim. He *is* reality. "Sin" has no definition under those terms. Anything made can be unmade, done & undone, wrongs can be righted and rights wronged.
Even for us puny mortals, sin is a relative term. It was not long ago that people were strung up and tortured for things that today we'd consider pretty benign. To the extent that it "exists" and is meaningful to us in our spiritual lives, it's part of what shapes the context of our behavior and decisions within a social environment. If it helps us to have a more harmonious society, that's hardly a bad thing.

No. God is not a sinner. He gave us free will. True, if He wanted to, He could stop us from sinning. But He loves us too much to actually CONTROL us. Imagine being forced to love someone you didn't want to love (like atheists who refuse to believe in God). Well, God didn't want that, He wanted us to love Him by ourselves, no force involved. When you force someone to love you, it's not really love.
In short, God is not a sinner. God is love.
Hope that helped.
God bless you.

It is your choice to sin, not God's. That is a stupid question. You're trying to take away the blame from yourself and place it on God and it doesn't work that way.

He gave us ( human beings) the freedom and free will to either follow, love and serve Him...If you don't , He already knew that you weren't going to love or even believe in Him....He knows if you are going to sin and He knows if you'll ask for forgiveness...He is complecated like that

He loves you enough to give you a choice.God never forces his self on any one. He gave Adam and Eve everything ever needed in life but only one command and that was not to eat from the tree knowlege of good and evil. When Eve disobeyed being decieved by Satan then gave to Adam he disobeyed .Thats when sin came into the world but until then it was perfect.Man brought this upon himself for disobeying God,and because of one mans sin all became sinners .But the answer truley is that there is a way provided through Jesus Christ God's only Son whom he sent to die on the cross for our sins.He died and rose again on the third day and now sits at the right hand of the father ever interceeding for us.If we only believe and accept by faith the truth of the Gospel and repent and come to Jesus he will save us and cleanse us .If we confess with our mouth and truely believe in our heart what Jesus did at Calvary for you and all man kind. Jesus is the only of salvation. It sounds like you are mad at God.All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Maybe you need to examine your on heart and dont blame God for since you are questioning Gods word it maybe that God is dealing with your heart and you dont want to admit you are guilty before him who is a righteous and holy God. He does not condem you your own heart does.I feel you are in search of truth cause at one time in my life i had all these question's and I begin to cry out to the Lord and begin to read the bible and pray and one day I ask Jesus into my heart and to forgive me of my sin and guess what He did. I began a personel relationship with him and accepted by faith his truth and my life has never been the same. Yes a person will sin after recieveing salvation at time but we dont have to its a choice.and if we sin we have Jesus to call on and truely repent. God looks on your heart remember that.The bible saids out of the heart flows the issues of Life and out of the abundance of the heart a man will speak. What ever is in your heart goin to come up out of your mouth.God loves you friend rather you believe it or not, I would suggest that you go on a journey for truth and begin to read the word of God and pray and get in a bible believing church fellowship, and find you a good Pastor who will tell you truth and that loves you.A good pastor will tell you truth even if its something you might not want to hear such as correcting you,reproving you and he will do it with love because he cares.I'll be praying that you get your issues solved but first get your heart right with God.Have a blessed day.

Sure....He could bind and blind everyone thus take away free choice all together.. Opps forgot He would also have to make them all deaf.

He gives us free choice, stop asking questions, read the bible, and go to church, find out the truth for yourself
