when comes to God doing things why do they always question the power? blessed of those whom believe not seen than those that have seen yet not believe still.

cause god can do things that we can't and thats why many people have a hard time in believing in God. just because we humans cant do some stuff doesnt mean that god cant do it too.
we humans have a limit when it comes to power and thinking but god does not have that limit, and because 'we' have limits so we think that god has limits too.... but it's wrong, theres no limit for god.

"They" question because "they" have things like thoughts...which kind of messes up the "faith" thing. The only reason anyone has ever given me to believe in God or Gods power is the ever-present threat of hellfire. Since I have gotten no evidence of God, hell, heaven, or any of the other wild claims of the Bible, I have no reason to believe any claims made about them.
And BTW: I have read your Bible back and forward severak times. I'm still not convinced. How can I be by the myths of a culture long dead?

Personally, it boils down to an old philosophical paradox.
God tells us 3 things,
1. He is omnipotent
2. He is omniscient
3. He is omnibenevolent.
As all three, suffering could not exist, as he would know about it, and be able to stop it. If he is lacking one of those things, suffering exists.
Now, to add to the old part, he states he is the only god, yet there are many other faiths. How is this explained?
Nephilim.
So, by demonizing other's faiths, YHVH is showing a total lack of omnibenevolence.
Remeber when Jacob wrestled YHVH, and didn't instantly win? No omnipotence.
The fall? An all-knowing God would have known better.
To me it's simple, to you, maybe not.

GOD gives everyone free will. He cant make anyone believe, Its up to the individual person. But they will believe when they stand before judgment after death. And i wouldn't want to be them. Ive never questioned Gods power.

I don't question His power as I too believe, but if other's choose to believe what they want that is thier choice. It's called freedom, and I am happy to live in a country that gives me this right. Thank you.

I think we question the power of God because we cannot understand it. We can only compare it to what we know- which is very limited. The power of God is almighty and that is a concept we don´t understand.

Why would the all powerful Ruler of the cosmos choose to appear as an infant as many seers have told? I believe it is to put as little fear into people as possible. Is that cool, or what?

Because they try to imagine how much power the God has. And everyone fails...

Why do you NOT question God's power? "Blessed are those that think for themselves for they shall inherit cheesy nachos!"-1st Yogurtians , chapter 18.

There is no god. There isn't a shred of hard evidence that supports the existence of god. He was just made up.
