Is God a Terrorist?

Question

He made Hell, where He'll throw anyone who doesn't worship Him.

Doesn't that sound like a terrorist to you?

"No innocents", except Socrates, Aristotle, Gandhi, Buddha, Confucious, Lao Tzu...

...Dalai Lama...

...six million Jews from the Holocaust...

...Hippocrates (you know, the guy who wrote the Hippocratic Oath that every doctor takes to perform medicine)...

SP I was just thinking of that. Nelson Mandela was called a "terrorist" until he became the Father of the modern Union of South Africa.

...the victims of Tianemen Square (sp?)...

...Africans who died on Christian slave ships while being transported from their homeland to Washington...

...Muslim women and children who sought refuge in Jerusalem's Holy Sepulchre when the Crusaders took Jerusalem...

Answer 1

Good thought. BTW, even if you're not innocent, it's not justified to be tortured.

Answer 2

Wow I wouldn't want to (and don't) follow a God who terrorized his children into obedience. However, I think there is room to consider that this may be a perceptual problem, based on the way humanity organized itself in ancient times? Wow! I'm really wondering if people actually think God is like this? That is really sad to me...and profound...and I am wondering how to help rescue folks from that sort of belief. Wow!!

Answer 3

First of all God did not make hell. People do no go to hell after they die, they are just death and become dust. That is what the Bible teaches. Secondly God gave everyone the freedom of choice. We chose not to worship him and we suffer the consequences of our actions. Sin is autodistructible. When we sin we chose to destroy ourselves.

And lastly in the end when God destroys all the evil in His love He will do that for 2 reasons. First because He respects their decision to rather be death than to live.

Secondly if God would have let people who sin live they would ultimately kill themselves because they don't have love, because God is love. For love is of God and everyone that loved is born of God and knoweth God. He that loved not knoweth not God for God is love.

Answer 4

yeah pretty much

religious extremism is a scary thing. Your 2nd answerer is proof. "there are no innocent people in hell" The Islamic terrorists think they're innocent too bub.

Answer 5

No God is not, I suggest you might want to go to Iraq for a while and then maybe you'll no what a terrorist is!
God gives everyone a free will. You choose where you go!

Answer 6

No. Because Jesus Christ who created everything and paid the way to salvation and gave your whole life and one chance after another.

He also warned you of the penalties of death and sin.

Sow you are with out exuses.

Answer 7

no, God is Love.

He gave us a gift....forgiveness and heaven through Christ. we have the personal choice to choose it or leave it.

there is consequence for each one. God is God, and will not go back on His plans.

Answer 8

Mabey god is the next antichrist lol

Answer 9

Satan is the terrorist. God is anti-terrorism.

Answer 10

Indeed, but it's the God on "high" in plural divided law law "heavens" you speak of, the false God of false/true Gods, the foolish God of foolish/wise Gods, the great God of great/greater Gods, this God of this/that Gods, the dead God of dead/living Gods, high and mighty Law Law, also called Majesty, and Jehovah, and Allah. Hence the exhortation to mind not high things, be not highminded, for highminded is among unholy things in 2Tim3... in which things are allegory & mystery.

Allegory clue: Moses' Law was a "great terror"-ist to all Israel: Deut 34:12; And even made Moses exceedingly fear & quake. For it's notably a fear-full (tormenting) thing to "fall" (from grace) into the (plural) "hands" of God on "high" in (plural dividead) heavens; also called wickedness in high places. For whether left (sitting in Moses's seat) or right (standing with Jesus) of the great God on high, it's "law worketh wrath"(God hath not appt'd us unto) either way of such law law, also called a "twoedged sword" which kills and destroys both ways of broad and narrow; For the narrow way thereof, which can get as narrow and sharp as a razor, notably only "leadeth" to life by "go on unto perfection"; otherwise it's life + death = a dead end for them all therein who draw back to perdition(the "no escape" destruction).

Of mystery noted over 20 times, and of the triple mystery noted in Col 2:2, "the mystery of God" is the first to solve in such allegoric mystery written aforetime for our learning, to go learn what meaneth I will have mercy and not sacrifice. Hence see-king advice freely given to "ye" do err folk is "seek ye first the kingdom of God", which is located within "you": made perfect, strengthened, stablished, and settled by the God of all grace. Hence the end to endure unto to be saved(only) by grace(only) is:

The "grace"(God) of our Lord Jesus Christ with you all. Amen.

"Above" such law law, "higher than the heavens", "far above the heavens" where Christ ascended and "appeared to God for us", is "the only true God", "the only wise God", "that God", "the living God", "the God of all comfort", "the God of all grace", "the blessed and only Potentate" of two Gods having different opinions of them. To wit, "that God" was in "Christ"(the end of the law) reconciling the world unto himself(the God of all grace), NOT imputing their trespasses unto them (NOT concluding them all in unbelief, NOT accusing and condemning them to death), and hath give us "the word" of "reconciliation"(unto that God): "grace". Hence even the conclusion of the Pauline epistle "To The Hebrews"(whose God on high both spake & spoke contradictory law law in time past & last days) is:

"Grace"(higher God) with you all. Amen.
