If God is all powerful and can do anything, then why did he create a humanity that could even sin?
Then, if that creation did sin (which means HE really isn't PERFECT) why did he need to create a son with a birth where the woman wasn't touched by a dirty man? Then why did that son have to give his life for us?
Couldn't have g money upstairs just said "Okay, forgiven" and that's that? Or did the big man upstairs need some fresh blood?
So he created himself for himself so that he could sacrifice himself to himself to forgive himself.
Besides, if there was a god then Angelina Jolie would be in every movie.

The counter-argument is he thought it would be better for us, and teach us something that way... Think of it like a videogame. He starts it and he has fun tossing people into lakes of hellfire and so forth and watching them scream, all is good, and then he decides he actually wants to beat the game, and starts playing to enlighten us descretely. Now, even though he has all the cheat codes, he'd preffer to legitimately teach us, because, well, he has nothing better to do with his time apparently....
That, or he just doesn't exist, and happens to be patched together from various different halucinations, rumors, superstitions, and misunderstandings.... I'd go with the latter of the two options personally.

So He can be glorified.
Creation CHOSE to sin. God told them not to, but they did it anyway. (God is still perfect and always will be).
He didn't create a son. The son was always with the Father from forever (eternity). One God yet 3 personifications of God being able to be in 3 separate places at the same time. The Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit. The Father creates, the Son (Jesus) saves, and the Holy Spirit lives within all true believers to seal them for the day of redemption (among other things).
Jesus gave his life for us to show how much God loves his creation. And also God's wrath and anger at how offensive we sinners are in his sight. He offers us salvation through His Son Jesus Christ. How? By repenting of your sins and trusting Jesus to save you.
The big man requires some fresh blood. For without the shedding of blood there is no redemption of sins.
He didn't create himself. He always and always will exist.
Your last sentence proves what you are. Jesus says that whomsoever looks with lust commits adultery and breaks the 7th Commandment. Another sinner. Just like me.

I thought you said quick question.....here is a quick answer, we live in a fallen world. If life were perfect then you would never seek God. God sees what you see different. He does all things well even if you dont think so. The people who deny God are people that dont want to be with Him for eternity so why be surprised that not everyone is going? Hes made it easy. Believe in Jesus who is the Son of God and accept Him as your Lord and Savior who died for your sins.

You question is not serious but the answer is. God had to keep His justice in place because He is a Holy God. He could have pardoned all, but the next time His justice came into consideration man would just laugh at it. It's like the president of a college who found his son disobeying college rules. He had a choice, expell him or pardon him. He chose to expell him because the next time the problem came up, people would question his authority.

Your question should have a long answer. But God created man with freedom of choice, he didn't create robots. God came as Jesus and died (and came back to life). He atoned for us... the perfect sacrifice , only he could make. All we need to do is accept Jesus as Lord.

ha ha ha!
I have neither the time nor the inclination to go into the deep yet simple explanation, as the tone of your question reveals that perhaps you would rather mock and instigate debates over words than be willing to listen o the simple and clear truth.
Angelina Jolie? she is perhaps the most tepid of the current crop af those who act. I would have been more impressed if you has selected a more deserving actor as one that should be in more movies.

God created humanity with the choice of free will. God could make EVEYONE worship him and obey him, but chose not to so that mankind could be sorted - his children and the people he doesn't know.
God has never sinned; quite clearly a lot of people don't really understand his/her purity and power.
I hope you will soon understand this :)

Because it would be boring otherwise....
Sides, Angelina Jolie is nice, I mean, she is very nice, but don't forget Marilyn or Betty Page...If there was a God, they wouldn't age...

He may be all powerful but he's got serious drinking issues. I bet he was high on Jack D the day he created mankind.
