Am I understand you Christians correctly?

Question

Your God is so loving and just, that if I don't believe in him I'll suffer throughout eternity if I don't believe in him?

I think I got it now. Thank you for all the wisdom you share.

Forced love is called rape? So what's it called if you make someone suffer if they do not love you? Fair, just and compassionate?

Answer 1

With all evidence pointing against contemporary Christianity, often to the point of impossibilities. Quite twisted how brainwashed people can become.

Answer 2

There have been times in my life when I wonder if there is any intelligent life out there. Why would anyone be concerned with any eternity with a God they do not believe in? It is everyone's right to believe in what they want, it is not their right to ridicule other's beliefs. We need to be tolerent of one another and understand that we all are different. If you do not have any faith in God or do not believe he exists; why care about whether you will spend any time in heaven or hell? Why not just go on about your life as you are? Maybe it is because you are not so sure of your beliefs and want to hedge your bets. I see it all the time, people want the good things from faith, but do not want to make the changes in order to make it happen. Sorry, you can't have it both ways. As a christian I am confronted with this all the time. I like to explain it like a trust fund from God. His love is guaranteed to us all. We have to make a choice and live that choice in order to get that trust fund. If a person left you a large inheritance and all you had to do was change into a good person in order to get it; I can be pretty sure that you would do just that thing. What is the difference. Make a choice, live with it and shut up whining about how unfair it is that the God you do not believe in is not the God you will spend eternity with. You can't have it both ways. SORRY!!!!!!!!

Answer 3

It is true that our God is so loving and just. And this is shown in his simple act of kindness in that the same way that he lets the sun rise and the rain fall for the benefit of those who serve Him, he does the same for those who do not and will not serve him. Despite the conditions of this world He has not taken us and set us apart from those who have made the choice not to serve him, but has allowed his followers the opportunity to continue to try to help any honest-hearted ones that may not know the truth about Him the chance to learn.
And whether or not you suffer should be more so looked at as either the fact that you could be reaping what you have sown. B/c we as imperfect humans have the tendency to bring things on ourselves. Also we have unforeseen occurences that befall us. We know that our God does not try us with evil, nor can He be tried with evil.

Answer 4

2 clarifying factors: a million. Christian Scientists make a compulsory enormous distinction between "techniques" and "techniques"... the former indicating human techniques, subject to confusion... and the latter indicating an all-understanding and all-loving God. that's techniques, or God, that heals. 2. accurate right here statement from Alfred Farlow, a colleague of Mary Baker Eddy's, might want to help to make clean issues: "The statement, "there is not any be counted," status on my own and self reliant of any qualification, looks to intend that each and every thing that we see,---the total introduction,--is non-existent, even as actually Christan technology teaches that one and all issues, from the least to the most excellent, are authentic, although no longer what they look to the common experience of those who have not yet realized to grow to be attentive to them as God made them and as they extremely are. after we are properly recommended as to what God's introduction is we may be able to comprehend what it isn't. we are unable to make the right enormous distinction between fact and mistake till we first comprehend fact."

Answer 5

It's very simple actually, If a man holds out his hands to you and in his left hand is $100,000. In his right hand is an angry venomous snake. If you are given the "Choice" to pick any hand you want, would it be this mans fault if you chose the venomous snake and it bit you and you died?
God offers us eternal riches and blessings, all you have to do is accept His free gift. If you choose to reject Him and make yourself god of your own life, He is gracious enough to let you make that decision. It is "Your" choice. Pick Glory and Riches in heaven with God Almighty or pick pain and agony and abandonment in hell. God does not make this choice for you, He lets you decide your own destiny. Your choice, God will not force His Blessings upon you.
God Bless You....Peace.

Answer 6

Let me know when the American Atheist Association opens up a sleep shelter or a free food center...or anything else that isn't selfish and self-indulgent. We don't care for your "wisdom" either. Nor am i at least interested in your personal salvation;that's not up to me.

Answer 7

Hey. He gave you just as good a chance as anyone else. It's what YOU do with it that matters.

Forced love is called rape.

Answer 8

No. The idea that God torments people eternally is not a Biblical teaching. The actual "punishment" for a lack of faith in God is a loss of the opportunity for everlasting life. But those that are destroyed at Armageddon are simply dead, in a sleep-like state, nothing more.

Answer 9

the biggest superstition in this world is that what happens after when you die: because there is lack of understanding most of us haven't got a clue, so many many religions exploit that lack of knowledge and in its place they put superstition
and try to force it through fear

there is nor eternal hell or an eternal heaven, hell is inside your mind if you are angry, sad, hatred, guilty conscious and ill confident you're already in hell, gratitude, love, comfort, respect and happiness is what heaven is like. so bring down the hell and heaven to the ground where we all have our personal experience on each and create the one you want to live. there is no need to be superstitions anymore.

so don't believe in any god but believe in yourself.

Answer 10

You missed alot of valid points in there, which I am sure have been spelled out for you already, so no need for me to repeat them if you aren't going to listen the first 40 times.

Answer 11

Yes, you understand correctly...but, you maybe might consider too, that if God is God...and is reality...then just by his nature is is also "just"...in that sense, even God is limited...His justice is pure...sounds weird but think about it a bit.
