Did God mess up?

Question

Ok the Bible says god is perfect correct. Ok perffection mean a state of completeness and flawlessness. Look it up if you question me. Ok here is my point, why did god need to create anything if he was complete. The bible teaches he created man to worship him and love him. Ok he must be lacking something if he needs love and worship. If you are complete you need nothing. He wouldn't have needed to create anything at all except just sit there and be happy. Also if he created man perfect how did man mess up. if man was created perfect he couldn't mess up it's impossible to mess up when you are perfect. Pleas give me good answers and not just saying we made a mistake and sinned again if we were perfect created perfect we couldnt have sinned

Answer 1

Woot woot! ~~*Gives Cbread a whole BATCH of fresh-baked cookies!*~~

Answer 2

Where is it written in the Bible that man was created perfect? After God made man, He said that it was "very good," but I don't ever recall reading anything about man being perfect. If he was, he would be equal to God, and that clearly wasn't the case. If you can quote a specific verse that says otherwise, I'd like to see it. Otherwise, I think you're operating on mistaken information.

That which is not perfect has the capacity to fail. Since man was not perfect, he obvious could and did decide to disobey God. The Fall was not what God wanted for man, but what an imperfect human being chose for himself.

And as anyone who drives a good car but who wants a newer model, just because you don't "need" something, that doesn't mean you might not want it. God didn't need us or our worship and love -- you are right about that. But maybe He just wanted someone whose company He valued and enjoyed.

I can't tell you the reason why God created man, but I do know that He's treated us far better than we've treated Him over the centuries.

Answer 3

Wow. That's quite a chip on your shoulder. Okay here's the thing: God did not 'mess up', and He spent all of Eternity Past, before the Big Bang, in a perfect joyful state. But God is a Person, not a machine. He had an idea, and decided to pursue it. There is nothing imperfect about that.

Is that a 'smart enough' answer for you?

Answer 4

I told you I would answer your question.THE 16 YEAR OLD GIRL!!! MATTHEW:5:48-You shall be perfect just as your FATHER in heaven is perfect.Okay yes God is perfect and will always be perfect we were made to be perfect until that guy you are serving THE DEVIL came along and ADAM & EVE were betrayed by the DEVIL much like you are being betrayed.It is so what you are saying...He isn't the one lacking he didn't have to create us but he wanted too and you are right about one thing he didn't have to create us and he didn't have to wake you up this morning now did he???WAKE UP!!! YOU really need to go to church and pray pray for understanding.WE were perfect but not anymore we can.Just to make sure you understand how man mess up--WEdisobeyed GOD by doing what the enemy told us to do...much like you are doing NOW. You sound like a FOOL and YOU are I also respect your curiosity get a Bible thats on your level (beginer)again:YOU sshall be perfect just as you father in heaven is PERFECT...smile and tune into John Hagee

Answer 5

Yes, God is perfect. He made this earth and Adam because that's what he wanted to do. And have you forgotten, he already had many Angels in Heaven that loved and adored him.You also have to remember, at one time even the devil was a good angel in Heaven. But he,devil, thought he was too good and could take over Heaven. That's when him and his following angels were killed out of Heaven and put in hell. So theres were the devil tried again to take over, with Adam and Eve. It was him that told Eve she could eat the apple.So when the devil looked like a snake and was telling Eve to eat the apple, Adam watched her do it instead of stopping her. When God gave Eve to Adam, he told him to watch over her and guide and direct her. So when Adam let Eve do that, that's where man did first sin. The devil is VERY convincing, and that is where so many people are letting him blind them from the right way of God. The devil makes many think that his ways so good, but the hardest thing is that its not and I don't even want my worst enemy to spend eternity in hell. Blessed be Always -

Answer 6

i just posted this in another question...

God was to have created man in his own image, yet god is suppose to be perfect. So why is man not perfect? A perfect being is incapable of conceiving an imperfect being or even an imperfect idea. so therefore, for all the people screaming tree of knowledge, creating something imperfect would make god aware of imperfection and therefore once imperfection is realized one, god, is then no longer perfect...

Answer 7

first of all God says his thoughts are not our thoughts,his ways are not our ways .so i think it safe to say we can not understand the infinite with a finite mind.can we judge God by mans standards?
God created man for himself.
why is this any different than the reason a man and woman desire to have children?is this a selfish or self serving desire?do we have children to fill an emptiness ?could we really just sit there and be happy?As a woman i had a desire to have my own children. to co-create a life ,and to share that life with my creation.perhaps God created man not out of an emptiness but out of a fullness and wanted to share that fullness with someone ?
no where does it teach in the bible that man was created in perfection. in fact ,God created us with free will.he could have made us mindless automatons ,but He wanted us to choose to obey him to love him in return.
we as parents expect our children to respect and love us. being older and wiser we want them to be attentive and obedient to the things we teach them.so ultimately they will have good lives.but in the end they will choose what they choose,because of free will.
peace><>

Answer 8

Man was given free will, so man messed up. God had so much love, that He wanted to share it, so He created man. He loved man so, He gave man free will. Then Jesus, came and died, so we could have eternal fellowship with God.

Answer 10

Skeptics commonly ***** that God set Adam and Eve (and us) as a lot as fail. despite the indisputable fact that, God had to furnish Adam and Eve a decision. with out free will to opt for on, Adam and Eve might want to were mere puppets. genuine love continuously calls for decision. God needed Adam and Eve to opt for on to love and trust Him. the in basic terms thanks to furnish this decision might want to were to command something that grow to be no longer allowed. If this received’t paintings in a civil courtroom, it genuinely received’t paintings on Judgment Day. inspite of an authority protection legal specialist, it would want to take a marginally inept decide to fall for the former "God made me do it" protection. we are in charge moral brokers. The "greenback" stopped at Adam. He tried responsible both God and Eve for his sin; Eve blamed the serpent. it truly is human nature to attempt, despite the indisputable fact that it doesn’t paintings with God. God Bless you.

Answer 11

God is perfect. All he has done and created was planned by him.Seems like every bad thing that happens is blamed on God. Hello???What about Satan.

All of things that have gone wrong have been our fault as we have freedom of choice.And Satan has contributed too.
