A Question for Christians?

Question

You say your God knows all, so before creating Adam and Eve he knew they would sin, and in turn on Judgement Day Billions of people would be sent to hell and would get tortured for the rest of eternity.(many peaceful people are not Christians eg. 1 Billion Hindus, 600 million + Buddhists etc.)
So is your God such a entity who knows that at some point Of time would create a creation Whose many(billions) of Sons he knows in advance will suffer eternal pain.
Would he create a creation for whom he knows
one day HIS OWN SON JESUS WILL SUFFER very much.

No human father would create a ROBOT if he knew in advance that the ROBOT would torture his son.(In context to the fact GOD creating humans while knowing humans would torture his son JESUS one day)
Why Not Create A Creation Which Was As Perfect As Him (GOD)

Atleast I know that no KIND HUMAN BEING if granted the ability to create would create a creation whom he knows he would have to torture in the future.(In context to the fact GOD creating Human race while knowing in advance that many humans would be tortured in Hell).
Tell me would you give birth to your child if you know in advance that when he grows up he will be a mass murder and a danger to society and that one day you would have to kill him?
Kind Parents punish their children again and again when they make mistakes and do not allow them Free will to commit sin for his entire Life and in the end throw them into a pit of fire.

Answer 1

I couldn't have said or asked it any better then you just did. Congrats. This should be really interesting. You're absolutely right it doesn't make any sense whatsoever.

Answer 2

The Triune God cannot sin. If God had made us not to sin, then we would all be God. What would be the point? Remember even one third (1/3) of the angels sinned and were kicked out of heaven. We were created a little lower than they. I say, thank God we can be redeemed! The angels that fell cannot; and that is who hell and the lake of fire was made for; they knew the truth from the beginning. We learn the truth sometimes moment by moment >etc.....etc.....What a great opportunity to have a chance to be, so that we can be. Heaven or Hell which end is the lake that burns with fire. Just think if you never were, then you could never be; so now that we are and have a choice > Who will you choose. I choose Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior, and shall be eternally thank to God for His master plan. (LOVE)

Answer 3

Some good points here. But I think you're being an atheist (in the sense of "sexist" or "racist") in applying this doctrine to all Christians. Falsely discriminating against the religious, employing stereotypes, etc.
___The doctrine comes from Jesus' statements that the only way was through Him. But this can be interpreted as saying only through following his example OR AN EXAMPLE LIKE IT, meaning "in the same or a similar manner." Admittedly, a lot of Christians would dispute this interpretation, but religion-bashing has been around for centuries, and church-bashing is at the core of the modern tradition. So, cut them a little slack. If one of the dominant intellectual fads of the age were bashing some belief you held, you'd get defensive too, and cling to whatever certitudes there were within that belief all the more desperately. So lighten up.
___And remember, for all the exaggerated body counts ascribed to the Spanish Inquisition (millions, though the actual number was a little over a thousand), the body count for secular ideologies runs well into the tens of millions. If you just uncritically swallow the conventional criticisms of religion whole, you're not thinking critically, but just hopping onto the newest model of a 600-year-old bandwagon. It may be a bandwagon of the intellectual elites, but as the centuries go by, its claim to be at the forefront of critical thinking becomes ever more absurd.
___So don't be sucked into traditional conventional thinking just because it's a bit more current that the conventional thinking of an earlier tradition. If you want to get out in front of the curve, you have to transcend modern conventions as well.

Answer 4

This is a story with witnesses. Two men left their country to travel and visit another country for business. When they arrived their destination and had a rest; they toured around for marketing and buying goods. On their survey down the streets - searching the best goods; they came across a big and a huge crowd - a mass of people like watching a game in old play grounds without stairs. Some standing; others on chairs and some sitting.

They were curious and inquiring about what is going on in this place and wanted to know; they were also like toursists to collect and see new things and customs. They asked a man about what is going on in this place. He told them - it was a religious ceremony.

They decided to see what kind of ceremony was this! Yes! a cow was tied in the middle and people were around it to ask blesses and giving it prayers. they wondered. A source of milk and meat was in worship!

Immediately something happened. A huge ox drove its way through the crowd; people in perplixity and bewilderment opened a way terrified and scared. it was running down to the middle heading to towards the cow. The people started screeching and crying; falling over each other side ways.

The huge ox reached the cow and mated with it giving a quick shot like a bullet. The cow tied at one leg couldnot defend to ease the hit of the ox as naturally cattle do; but it fell over head and was crushed. It was damaged and broken.

Their was a confusion and again the people yelled and screemed; saying help! help and kill the ox; give a hand to your master - the cow!

The visitors were witnessing and watched what happened. They said we were shocked and understood that the cermony was null and void - a wrong god was in worship.

They ran away afraid of Gods' curse! The Almighty, the sustainer that gave life to everybody and the brains to know the right from the wrong. It was a wrong belief and a wrong ceremony!

Answer 5

God has punished humans - you act like he created us and ditched us like a deadbeat dad or something. Parents do punish their children, but can only do so after the kid has done something wrong...they can't punish the kid for a situation that hasn't occurred yet. Hence, free will.
Jesus' sacrifice wasn't even necessary until AFTER Adam and Eve had sinned against God. Prophesies of Jesus or the messiah didn't occur until AFTER the sin in the Garden of Eden. Nowhere in the bible does it say that Adam and Eve were punished with eternal torment. It says their punishment was death. Death itself was payment enough for their sins. Eternal damnation was/is not something biblical - it's a doctrine of man created long ago as a scare tactic.

Answer 6

Why is it that people always have to look at the negative when trying to discredit God and never mention the positive? God is nothing but good, its us humans who bring all the negative into this world. You see theres this big thing called free will which is the biggest gift God gave to us. If he made a perfect world where everyone would go to heaven, then that would almost be a pointless creation in itself to now wouldnt it be. Then God would know everyone would go to heaven so he didnt even have to create earth he could just send all straight up to heaven. But with free will he is allowing us to make our own decisions. WE choose whether we want to go to heaven or hell. WE choose whether we commit evil sins like murder. Those who persecuted Jesus chose to do so. It has nothing to do with God. And in his love he sent his only son b/c he was the only perfect human to be the perfect lamb in sacrifice for our sins. So yes, God is omnicient, he knows all, but there is no specific path for free will, we determine it! and i have to say i love when non-christians basically attack christians and say 'you say your God.....' ok as much as you dont believe in God and want respect for your belief, why cant all the people who dont believe give respect to those who do. In this way people can talk about their beliefs in a normal civilized way without being attacked.

Answer 7

Wow. Heaven is real, Hell is real. If it weren't so Jesus would not have preached more on Hell than He did on Heaven.

God created man for fellowship with Him. We screwed up and broke that bond we had with Him. He realized our need to connect with Him so He sent His son to pay the penalty for that mess up. And through Him, meaning Jesus, we can once again have a relationship with God.

Now believe what you want people but when all is said and done when our short lives are ending, are you comfortable with the fact believing there is nothing else?

"Choose this Day whom you will serve...As for me and my house we will serve the Lord."

Answer 8

Your own argument betrays you. God would not create someone just to torture them for eternity. You have bought into a lie that has been presented as the truth for the sole purpose of misrepresenting the character of God. The bible clearly states that the wicked will be as if they never were.

Answer 9

God did make a hell , Did you grow up loving your parents because your parents made you love them ? No you loved them hopefully cause they loved you first , thats why we love God, Because he First loved us.
God doesnt want robots to automatically love Him . So He gives us free will . To choose Him . Would you want to pay someone to love you ? Nooo nooone wants that , neither does God . God Doesnt desire anyone goes to Hell , People send themselves there . The Bible says God is Longsuffering for us not willing that ANY SHOULD perish ...
The Bible also says that God doesnt have plesure in the death of the wicked .
Meaning he doesnt want ppl to go there .
God gave us Jesus to accept him as the payment for our sin .
Sin has to be paid for , either you pay the debt yourself .Or you find someone else to pay it for you .
He paid a debt he didnt owe , cause we owed a debt we couldnt pay

Answer 10

Since God is Almighty and Eternal and Wise I don't feel the need at all to question things I may not fully understand in this dimension of existence. He is not on trial we are.

Answer 11

You wrote so much stuff I lost track of the question.

Am not Christian but I know for a fact that Christians support a non common sense belief in God.

They need to clean their act.
