Why did god make us and then after disobeying him, continued to let us exist. It doesnt make sense to me. At church they always say thank god for letting you live and breath but shouldnt we tell god no thanks since we are born in to such a sinful evil world?

He's letting you live now, for the bad people.
In the end, he's going to see who truly believes and follows him.
So even if we sin now, as long as we ask for forgiveness, not do it again, and inform others and obey him, you will not be gone.

By the way, it was people who made it bad, not God. Hurricanes, global warming, wars, all made by people. We're lucky God still loves us unconditionally, would you love yourself after all these sins?

It always amuses me when people say that this is "such a sinful evil world". In comparison to what other worlds, exactly? The only other ones we know of, with no life on them? Well, yeah, I suppose, but how boring is that?

There is no doubt that unbelief is of two types: One is unbelief out of obstinacy and stubbornness, which is called the unbelief of repudiation; and the other is unbelief out of ignorance and unawareness of the truth. With regard to the former, definitive rational and narrational proofs indicate that a person who deliberately and knowingly shows obstinacy towards the truth and endeavours to reject, it deserves punishment. But with regard to the latter, it must be said that if the ignorance and unawareness do not spring from negligence, they shall be forgiven and overlooked by God.

To explain this point, it is necessary to speak a bit about submission and obstinacy. The Qur’ān says:


يَوْمَ لاٌ يَنْفَعُ مٌالٌ وَ لاٌ بَنُونَ إِلاَّ مَنْ أَتَـى اللٌّهَ بِقَلْبٍ سَلِيمٍ

“The day when neither wealth nor children will avail, except him who comes to God with a sound heart.”[44]

God created a perfect world, but he also gave Adam (and the rest of us) free will. It was because of Adam's disobedience that we are born into a sinful world, but because Jesus died on the cross to pay for our sins we have the option to seperate ousrelves from the world, take up our crosses, and follow Him. We have the ability to do so, but we have to be the ones to make the choice. God has provided the path to Heaven, but we must follow it. Because of the above mentioned free will that God has given us there will always be those who choose a life of sin, but it is just that; a choice.

Once we are created we can never not exist. Our spirits are immortal and we are here to learn to love God and love each other under harsh conditions. There is a lot of good that goes on in this world that doesn't ever make the news.

Because mercy is God's greatest attribute.

His mercy is so incomprehensible that He will raise us up to a higher plane (after our repentance of course) than if we never sinned.


Theologians tell us that God will bring a far greater order out of the world than if Adam had never sinned.

Jesus' redeeming sacrifice was much more than sufficient to take care of sin.


Although sin is always forbidden, if sin does occur, God always brings a greater good out of the situation than if the sin never was committed.

That is the meaning of the passage: "where sin abounds, grace abounds all the more." (Rom 5:20).

God gave me life and although it has not been easy i am sure there must be some reason for it. The world is a good place it is people who do bad things to each other that is wrong just listen to the news.

for a very simple reason....
God loves YOU and me.
He wants us to spend eternity with Him.
so rather than destroy us, which He easily could have, He created a plan for our eternal salvation:
John 3: The Words of Jesus Christ (God in the flesh)
3. "Verily, I say unto thee, except a man be born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God."
4. Nicodemus saith unto Him, "How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?"
5. Jesus answered, "Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter the Kingdom of God."
6. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
7. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again."
16. "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17. For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.
18. He that believeth on Him is not condemned; but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God."

Because he gave us "Free Will" and we freely chose to be this way, but don't forget, he occasionally took care of 'evil sinners'... Noah and the Ark, Soddom & Gommorah, and I wouldn't doubt it if he was about to regulate again. Keep asking questions though, because NO ONE (person or religion) has all the answers.

After a child disobeys, you do just strike him dead? No you love him and you try to help out and teach him right from wrong . And when he does wrong you discipline.
