chistians: why can't i question god?

Question

"i want to know gods thoughts"

yet so many think that's blasphemy, why?

Answer 1

I think when some Christians say "don't question God" what they really mean is "don't question ME." These are the same people who claim to know what God wants.

If anybody starts a sentence with, "God says...." I like to say back to them, "Now that's interesting. I was talking with God just the other day, and he told me [the exact opposite.]"

Seriously, how is anybody ever going to know which one of us is telling the truth?

Answer 2

In all honesty, I'm a christian. And I know that you can question God. So long as you speak with a pure heart. And ask the questions you really need to know the answers to. Also you have to be alert for the answers. God dosen't always answer in the way one would expect. But sometimes shows you things in the corse of life. I don't think that it is blasphemy to question God. God wants you to be close to him and to be honest with him.

I hope that this helps you find the truth you are searching for if I can be of anymore help let me know. ([e-mail]). Good luck and God bless!

Answer 3

Actually thats the only way to grow, if you don't ask you don't find the deeper answers. recently I've actually been pondering why it is that A man is unclean for only a day when he masturbates, but a woman is unclean for an additional week after her period as well as during her period.

and part of the answer just struck me, it is probably because the whole system is mean to build self control and keep from overindulging in sex and turning the wife into a sex toy (being you cant sleep sleep with a woman while she is unclean). ant this also keeps the act of lovemaking fresher longer because it cannot be a nightly event.

Answer 4

The mind will always have questions, as each answer given brings a new question. It will never get all the answers, and will never stop hungering for answers. This is normal, and it is not blasphemy.

Answer 5

Of course you can question God, what good father would not like a son or daughter asking him questions? But you must be prepared to honor the answer too. Amen

Answer 6

seek after him, if speak with love, he will show U his ways. Ignore some Christians, the lord god says seek YE first the kingdom of God and his righteousness. he also says seek and ye shall find, ask and receive, knock and the door will open. ask for his heart on the topics U have would be surprised what U will get back, always be humble....for ex.. I seeked after God why the Jews where not aloud to worship him in his temple when the men had no penises, my eyes I though they lost it in war, and I was mad at God cuss I though he was mean to them. then when I was eating dinner with my family, It fell upon me the holy spirit said, its cuss they didn't like my covenant with them, they cut it off as protest. The Jews were the only one at that time circumcised and they use to be lafted at. and they were angry at God,,, so God would not let them worship at his temple for the disgrace they did to themselves.

Answer 7

anyone who says you cant is an idiot. take a look at some of the most famous (doctors of the catholic church) st thomas aquinase, st. augustine. many hundreds more questioned and challenged God. as well as were honored for it

Answer 8

You can question him all you want, but you will never get an answer, I have been questioning him now for over 60 years, can't even get a email from him.

Answer 9

Question away. 'Christians' aren't the boss of you, are they? Since when do opinions stop you from doing what you want?

Answer 10

Do not question him, as in do not doubt him, his ways, methods, decisions....what he says goes....hes God..

If you have questions for him then ask him. He will show you an answer in some way or another if it is in his will.
