Christians Please Answer?

Question

READ THE FOLLOWING FACTS COMPLETELY THEN ANSWER HOW YOU BELIEVE IN YOUR RELIGION-

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

Christians don't worry about the problems that arise from making **** up.

Answer 2

I don't believe that God knows everything. I don't believe that there is a data bank of common sense in the sky or a universal constant called life. There are many consciousnesses in the universe.

Isaiah 46:10
I make known the end from the beginning, from ancient times, what is still to come. I say, 'My purpose will stand, and I will do all that I please.'

Therefore, God has perfect EQ. But that doesn't mean that he decides what others will do. There are some exceptions in the Bible and I don't know the answers for all of them, but that's why they are notable - because they are exceptions.

The English word "hell" derives from Anglo-Saxon 'helan' meaning "to cover." A lot of the fiery stuff is in the book of Revelation which I think came from the occult anyway.

Human beings are not robots. It's just that there's a lot of herd behaviour that goes on where everybody looks like they're doing about the same thing, but each is looking after their own objective, which is reaching the place of safety at the centre of the herd.

I'm sorry that this subject is upsetting you. Is it that you know of others who are aware of vast amounts of suffering and yet keep on smiling in whiteness?

Answer 3

I would not be too hang up if I were you about how many people are going to hell and whether humanity was created in futility. Serious Christians believe that God's merciful love for us is bigger than all the sins of humanity. So our situation may seems to be futile but not without hope. We are often reminded in Scripture that no one can know the mind and the riches of God and that his thoughts are way above ours. So do not be paranoid about guilt sin and hell. Just play as best you can with the cards you are dealt in life and remember the maxim that comes from the prophet Micha:

What does Yahweh ask of you? And the answer goes;
To live justly to love tenderly and to walk humbly with your God.

Answer 4

You're 100% correct--no human would do that. Let us all thank God that He isn't one of us!!!

#1- God DID create a world that was as perfect as He is. If you read the Book, it's us that screwed it all up. He had to create us with free will, otherwise our worship would be meaningless.
An example: for father's day my kids make me a card or bring me breakfast in bed. This gesture, of their own free will, is special and has deep significance to me. If, on the other hand, I lay in bed yelling for breakfast, then their actions, while obedient, are valueless because they were done under compulsion.

#2-John 1:1,3,14"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God...All things came into being by Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being...And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth."

Jesus created the world, that we then messed up.It was Jesus who created everything, and Jesus who came to redeem it. To use your own example, what parent would not sacrifice their own life that their children might live?

God does not send people to hell, we send ourselves by not turning to Jesus for redemption and forgiveness..

Answer 5

Dearie I perfectly agree with your point of view. You have put a lot of thinking into religious matters. But remember our existence is very much like a gold fish in its tiny tank. Our view is very much limited.
For instance we do not know what it means to exist/live in a world above 3 dimensions. If the fourth dimension is time we always experience it as moving from future to present and getting lost in the past. But God alone has that ability and He works things in such a way that it is the very very BEST for us. Accept it with faith.
Even when things go horribly wrong still accept it as best for you and praise God for it. He will eventually turn it into something perfect.
God in His enormity of wisdom still gives a kind of free choice for us humans. While He does have a grand scheme of things by allowing us to commit sin He gave His only begotten son Jesus as our redeemer. No other religion does that.
He has created everything in its own good time and everything will come to its own fruition in its own good time....only we will have to learn to wait for it. God bless you.

Answer 6

I noticed a man run around the floor of a pool stuffed with a non-Newtonian fluid thus God is truly, and likewise the soul is an invisible organ within the human frame that's teleported to one among 2 parallel universes, both heaven or hell once we die.

Answer 7

You certainly are putting a negative slant on it, and the Bible does not present it that way, but the answer to that is still "Yes". God did create it all knowing in advance exactly what would happen.

Answer 8

This question was already answered before, and I got bored reading, so I just read your Christians please answer this opening..

God knows everything, but he doesn't turn us into mindless robots, God gave us free will, so even if God knows Adam and Eve is gonna do wrong, God still waited, waited for them to do whats right which they failed to do, so even if He know whats gonna happen He still won't change it, because we have to change it ourselves, God has very big faith in us that's why even if he know we did bad, and saw that our future won't be good, God still waits, God might not change it but He has faith that we might somehow will, like how a father is waiting for his son to learn how to talk "When you gonna talk baby.. when you gonna talk.. come on say daddy".. sorry if you might not get it he he..

If you want a clearer answer better find it in the old questions, because someone else answered it clearly before.....

Answer 9

He is a just and mighty God. No, we wouldn't have our kids if we knew they would do that. Thats why he is better than us. In christianity, alot of it is just goin by faith. The faith that we're doing what right, that there is Heaven. I don't like to argure with atheists, but I'm not. This is all I will say. If you want to believe and change and get saved, then of course I'll talk more, just IM me. I dont argue though! Think of christianity this way, better safe than sorry. :)

Answer 10

There is no actual hell at present and it will appear after the judgment time where the sinners would be punished for continuously committing sins against God inspite of his love to His creatures on earth. That was the law imposed by God for sinners to be thrown to the lake of fire after judgment.

Are you intelligent than God ? about the punishment given to sinners?About the laws of God? Instead of praying and asking forgiveness to God, you can afford to say something which is not necessary to God Here are verses for you to read taken from Romans, Chapter 9. verses 19 to 29.

Rom 9:19 Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault? For who hath resisted his will?
Rom 9:20 Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus?
Rom 9:21 Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?
Rom 9:22 What if God, willing to shew his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction:
Rom 9:23 And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory,
Rom 9:24 Even us, whom he hath called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles?
Rom 9:25 As he saith also in Osee, I will call them my people, which were not my people; and her beloved, which was not beloved.
Rom 9:26 And it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not my people; there shall they be called the children of the living God.
Rom 9:27 Esaias also crieth concerning Israel, Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved:
Rom 9:28 For he will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness: because a short work will the Lord make upon the earth.
Rom 9:29 And as Esaias said before, Except the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed, we had been as Sodoma, and been made like unto Gomorrha.

Answer 11

True, but realise this. It is possible to reject the christian myth and the fallible bible upon which it is based without rejecting the truth revealed to us through Jesus. The christan version of our relationship to God is not the only possibility is it? Anyone who wants to know the truth about God can find it, do you really want to know?
