God is omnipotent and allpowerful from what people have told me. If he is omnipotent then would he knows that a person is going to hell before they are even created. So why did he put them on earth?

God is omnipotent though, he already knows if your going to hell. Omnipotent means he can do anything and knows everything in the past, present, and futrue. Free will has nothing to do with it. He already knows.

I never said we were God puppets, I said he knows even before we were born if we were destined to hell.

Interesting question!.I'm not Christian though but i have religion.. anyway i've been asking the same question and no one ever give satisfying answer. I'm just kind of thinking myself that.. you are right that God is powerful and everything, God knows more than we've ever known or thought.. i think the reason why God put us on the earth then some go to hell or most, i don't know is because God created us with brain to think clearly, heart to feel when it's right and wrong and religion to guide us to keep in the right way.. so it's all ourselves that can decide either we want to be good or bad, we have to sides of evil and angel.. that's the incredible thing about being human because we can always choose.. which one we wanna be.. evil or angel.. or more likely to which one.. coz we have brain to think and we have heart to feel either is right or wrong(again!).. It's just the bright of world and technology often make us forget what's the basic thing of being human should be.. i don't know, you tell me!.. add detail: All what we know about God, world, religion and everything is based on holy bible or whatever.. so He wrote that to us so we know, and he also wrote what will gonna happen if we don't follow the rules.. so God only keep God's words either we go to hell or heaven.. and it's all up to us even though God can do everything, my question is.. why God put us in hell if god loves us no matter what? just because we don't listen to god? we are just human being, we are not perfect and what's hell do to God? does it give god satisfaction by putting us to hell? that's what i don't get it.

First of all, hell was not created for us. It was created for the devil and his demons.
When he created earth, Adam and Eve everything was alright. They had eternal souls etc but all the things that happened in Eden's Garden were allowed by God. Through Jesus Christ a person gains eternal life so since he knew that through Adam's sin everyone would go to hell, then he gives us Jesus because He loves us.

God never put anybody on the earth to go to hell. If you go to hell it is because you have rejected the fact that the Lord Jesus Christ died for your sins. He made away for all people to be saved. Don't blame God because people go to hell but the blame on who's fault it is. 1 Timothy 2: 4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.

The standard answer, which i'm sure you'll get often, is that God allows free will, even when he knows the outcome.
I believe it is becasue the creator has some purpose that is beyond human understanding that is served by everything, including the hell-bound.

If you are asking a serious question, look at the Abraham and Issac. When Abraham was to offer Issac as a sacrifice, God allowed Abraham to go up to the the point of dropping the knife on his only son (Issac) to kill him before God stopped him. Abraham could have changed his mind at any time.
Now look at Christ, when Christ was baptized, God announced it to the world, "this is Jesus my beloved son in whom I am well pleased." God did not tell the world this when Jesus was born but when Jesus obeyed God. Jesus being in the flesh could have not obeyed God.

He put everyone on here with a free will to chose Him or not to chose Him. It's our choice. If God were only to put those that would love Him here, it would make us more like puppets don't you think? God made it so that we could go to heaven, we would all escape hell if we chose to love Him. It's your choice where you go when you die.

i do not trust your strolling remote from God, yet you surely are not progressing both. i know too that i'm an analogous way. it truly is sturdy to bypass to church in spite of the reality that, for fellowship with others, yet in case you experience you may't bypass, then the proper you may want to do is pray. besides you received't bypass to Hell for no longer going to church (it truly is definitely dogma from Catholics.) do no longer ignore that there is not any sin that can not be forgiven (except for the denial of Holy Spirit it is largely no longer starting to be a believer.) So it type of feels to me that your fantastically a lot saved, in spite of the reality that i might want to point interpreting the Bible sometime. properly, shop faith, and God bless.

Because they made the right choice in the pre-existence and didn't follow Satin and the 1/3 of the host of Heaven who rebelled.

God allows us to make our own descions we are not puppets at the end of strings doing only what we a forced to do. He wants and hopes we will chose to believe in and love Him and live in eternal paradise with Him. I hope you chose to live with Him not in hell.

Believers and unbelievers are both here to demonstrate God's love to creatures above, below, and on the earth. It also justifies Gods decree to satan to leave His domain. We do not understand all things yet. - Good question, though.
