Why would a god INSIST that I believe in his existence to get into heaven or be a good person? Surely all he is bothered about is that we pursue a good life with morals? I do anyway! It's just a man made guilt trip isn't it?Why would he be upset if I didn't follow him? 'upset' is a human emotion, god isn't human? Or his 'wrath' Human emotion again!

"he says so in the bible "
Must be true then...The bible was written by men. You must be joking!

If we were made in his image, how can you say he doesnt have emotions?
Just because the bible says that does not mean it is true, I cannot believe you base your whole life on believing that one book is accurate, a book which was evidentally designed to make people believe in one thing! As if it wouldn't contain any propaganda or falsehoods.Come on.Wake up.

You throw away the thought of God like a candy wrapper, only wanting the good stuff inside.
Humans are so focused on the tangible and invisible that most will never even get a hint of understanding as to what God 'wants'.
Living a righteous life? No. That's not the correct answer. Try again.

all our life is based on oxygen.hold your breath for a period of time u are dead.we are based on something we dont see with our naked eye yet we believe we are breathing it every day.
bible is the word of GOD it gives life to those who follow it.we should all base ourselves on it.Bible is GOD word to us.to know What are his plans.How we should live.How we fell and how to get back to him.GOD isnt upset or is a angry GOD.The bible says his anger lasts for a moment.
But nope he isnt angry.www.fathersloveletter.com listen to it it will clarify your views probably.
read Psalm 103.
GOD took the first step in saying.I dont hate you i love you.That is why he sent his son.
John 3:16 says GOD loves the world not some group of people or some rich people.He loves everyone.The wicked and good alike.his love is same for a poor guy who is alone and a rich man with plenty.But to entry heaven we must meet its requirement..JESUS is our requirement to enter into heaven.If we dont have him we aint allowed into heaven.Simple as that.He already created a way if man cant accept a free gift what can GOD do.Its always there but a person by denying the gift is saying i deny GOD.so if someone deny GOD how can u blame GOD.
read John 3:16 .GOD sent his son JESUS so when we believe in JESUS we have eternal life.JESUS lived a sinless life and gave up his life as a sacrifice so we can be sin free. Ask JESUS to come into your heart and forgive ur sins and
cleanse ur past with his blood.
With a simple prayer like above u can be saved.JESUS loves u and wants u to be saved..

No Jesus' message was we failed at being good and the answer is to accept the atonement. It is the reason he said no man comes to the Father but through the Son. Those who have accepted the atonement are by faith changed and made new.

Isnt love an emtion?? so your god dosent love you ?
God loves you , he has emotions he says so in the bible , he can be loving , angry and he even goes to say he is jealous if you worship other gods. God is who he is , his ways are not our ways. Who are we to question the creator.
