Question for all?

Question

Okay, there are a lot of people who say the end is near and we will all suffer because we don't believe.
I am curious.


I accept that if I am wrong and He is real, I will have to pay the price. I am fine with that.
I am just baffled why people can't see that IF this God is real, He is not to be worshipped.
The Bible, from beginning to end works toward the ultimate Revelation, right?
So, even though God is said to be the one who created all, from the beginning, he was planning on coming down and taking everyone worthy to heaven while the rest are punished.
Hence, no more world.
Do you not think that resembles a game of chess?
Do you think it would be ok to worship a famous chess player then?
To me, the only difference is they are not so widely known with a book published hundreds of times over and banking on the naivet of mankind to buy.

Let me know your opinions, but please don't be mean to me...lol

Answer 2

Sorry, but I am perplexed by your questions.
The world is a stage, here there is singing and dancing.
People will not understand this!
God accepts you whether you are right or wrong.
There is an Ultimate Revelation and it can be found only in your heart.
God has to go nowhere, as you say, in coming down, God is already here! It's your job to perceive God. God already perceives you.
There is no game of chess going on here, for if you play against God, the outcome is settled before the game starts.
May I reiterate there is no game going on here!!!!!!!!
The Book that God has to offer cannot be sold or purchased here, it is beyond mans ability to pay such a price.
Fully understand that the world will be here for many eons
after you drop your body, or pass away, as it is better known to man.
All of the qualities that are in God are also within you, except one. That is the ability to create a life form out of nothing. This is the quality that God has held closely within God.
Yes, I'm a silly old fool, but doesn't everyone wish they were a silly old fool.
May all your questions be answered during your sojourn upon this temporary abode, we call earth........

Answer 3

Yes, yes.
That is why Christianity was a universalist religion, and traditionally taught that all humanity (and all creation) would be saved. Eternal torment in hell did not become an established doctrine until the Middle Ages, and even then it was not universally accepted in Europe until the 17th century. The native Churches of North Africa, the Middle East, Eastern Europe, the former Parthian Empire, India, and China still maintain (for the most part) that all humanity will be saved, and that 'hell' is, at most, a temporary purgatory meant for spiritual rehabilitation. A common expression among Orthodox theologians is that God is incapable of handing out punishment. Other ancient theologians said that to call God "just" is blaphemous.

Answer 4

I think you have asked an intelligent question and deserve a straightforward answer.

It all begins with the problem of sin. The bible says there are none without it. You have sinned, I have sinned. When we die, we do not just vanish. Our souls are immortal. But a person who is stained with sin cannot enter the presence of a holy God. What to do? That is why Jesus came and died on the cross. For all who believe, He erases their sin, through their faith in Him, with the blood He shed on Calvary.

Everything you read in the bible is true. Adam and Eve, Noah. The Exodus. Jesus being born, dying on a cross. And Revelation, yet to come. Yes, this earth will go through a horrible time, worse than anything we have ever witnessed. Only those who are saved through faith in Jesus Christ will not suffer the worst of it all.

You say if you are wrong, you are willing to suffer the consequences. Please think very, very carefully about what these consequences will entail. If you survive the tribulation period, and if you die unrepentant and refusing to believe in Jesus, your soul will be separated forever, from God, in hell.

You're going to get alot of answers to your question. I pray to God that you hear this one.

Answer 6

There seems to be a bit of naivete in your question regarding how God does things and what the plan is. If you want to become a little more informed on what future events are going to unfold, start here...

The question is, if it would be easy for you, would you take the free gift and be 100% assured of eternal salvation?

Answer 7

Do you believe that there is a life after death ?
It always confuse me why the ticket to heaven will be expired before we die.
You have to believe in God before you die and not after.

it is good enough for me if someone still remember me sometimes after I die or remember my contribution to the world.

Answer 8

Like the fellow above me said. Not all Christian believe in this type of God.

Answer 9

I don't play chess, but like to watch it on tv. Wait a minute, I was thinking of tennis.

Answer 10

God is inside all of us.We are a tiny piece of him.You don't have to worship god.Kind of like you don't have to worship your parents.He is always with you.Be still and know you are part of god.
