that doesn't exist.

All of humanity is guilty of committing sin against God. Which one of us is not guilty of at least one of these; evil, covetousness, malice, envy, murder, strife, deceit, maliciousness, gossip, slander, haters of God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, foolish, faithless, heartless, and ruthless. We not only do them but approve of those who do. We also know that God has decreed that those who practice such things deserve to die.
So will doing some good stuff set all this aside? Hitler employed, fed, and educated millions of Germans. Should God set aside his guilt for the Holocaust because more people benefited than were harmed? All reasonable people can see this is ridiculous.
The Lord Jesus Christ was once asked this question, “What must we do, to being doing the works of God?” Jesus answered them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he has sent.” John 6:28-29 Jesus Christ is that one as is proven by His resurrection from the dead.
Do you want to be justified before God? This is all that is required of you, come to Him as a sinner and confess you sins to Him if you do “He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” 1John 1:9 So how do you believe in Him? It is quite simple. In Romans 10:9 we are told that “if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.” Oh, the simplicity of Christ!
Paul said in 2Cor 5:20-21, “We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. For our sake He made Him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God.”
Will you be righteous before other people? Chance are no, you won’t. That is not the point. We know that all of us are going to die. When we do, is it humanity or God that will be important? Whether we believe in God or not, we are guilty and no amount of denial or rationalizing will excuse us.
There are no contradictions in the Bible. All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. Only God can fix the problem.

Hand, you have a lot of good things to say and I respect you, even though I disagree with many of the things you write here. Listen though, its hard enough dealing with others attacking God and religion without having to argue religious positions with other Christians. I love you man...keep up the good work.

All praise the Flying Spaghetti Monster. He is the TRUE LORD and God of this life and the next. He has called me to spend eternity with beer volcanos and strippers. YOU have been blinded by the Purple Oyster. This is INCONTROVERTIBLE FACT. All you need to do is call out to the holy Flying Spaghetti Monster and He will accept you in all his noodly goodness. If you do not repent, you will be cursed with an eternity of stale beer and strippers infected with STDs.

If you read His gospel with an OPEN and HONEST heart, you WILL see this is true. I KNOW this. Just as I KNOW He is the one true Lord.

a million) "sturdy to all or some?" you're able to have persevered examining Psalm one hundred forty five. bypass all the way down to twenty: "The LORD preserves all who love Him, yet each and all the depraved he will smash." So -- he's powerful to all who LOVE HIM. this would not contradict Jer. 13:14 -- in certainty, it helps IT! (that's the place you're meant to make a Homer Simpson "Doh!") The judgement given in Jer. 13:14 is defined in verse 25: "considering you have forgotten Me and depended on in falsehood." In different words, that they had stopped loving God and grew to become depraved. 2) "conflict or peace?" Exodus 15 records the track the Hebrews sang after effectively crossing the crimson Sea and seeing the Egyptians destroyed. In that sense, they observed the shielding element of their God for the 1st time and rejoiced in it. he's a God who knows the thank you to guard with conflict against His enemies, yet His justice is thoroughly righteous. there is not any excitement or excitement in this for Him. on an identical time, he's a God of love. I see no contradiction, because of the fact the characteristic you attempt to label as "unjust" is unquestionably justice personified. do no longer forget approximately, you in simple terms found out that Psalm one hundred forty five:20 says He destroys people who do no longer love Him. Pharoah and his armies easily qualified. 3) "Joseph's father?" Matthew records Joseph's family members line; Luke records Mary's family members line. in case you examine Hebrew, you may understand that's genuine. So, i assume you will in simple terms would desire to have confidence me!

Was there really a question or were you just preaching? Was there a point? Do you really think you are converting people? do you trully believe that someone will read this and say "oh my god,! I've been wrong all this time?" Now these are questions.

Harryd, I;m looking forward to it. But see,,, I'll be dead. dead is dead. there is no after life.

Actually, "Punch", the day will come when all who have rejected God will say, "Oh my God, I've been wrong all along!" That will either be on the day they die or on the day that Jesus returns, whichever occurs first. "Every knee shall bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord". There's no avoiding it, whether you like it or not.

Feel better now that you've barfed a bunch of dogma all over the board? I'm sure we're all duly impressed. BTW I reported you for the sin of preaching.

"There are no contradictions in the Bible."
