God is Merciful, who knows

2007-05-27 17:39:58 · answer #1 · answered by TEK.YOL.ISLAM 2 · 2 3

no
1. Allah (SWT) 'God' is only 'One', has no partner or son, and neither gives birth, nor is He born. He is eternally besought by all and has no beginning or end, and none is equal to Him (Holy Quran example)
2. He is the Merciful and the Compassionate, the Guardian and the True Guide, the Just and the Supreme Lord, the Creator and the Watchful, the First and the Last, the Knowing and the Wise, the Hearing, and the Aware, the Witness and the Glorious, the Able and ' the Powerful. (Holy Quran example).
3. He is the Loving and the Provider, the Generous and the Benevolent, the Rich and the Independent, the Forgiving and the Clement, the Patient and the Appreciative, the Unique and the Protector, the Judge and the Peace. (Holy Quran example). The question of Allah's (SWT) 'God' existence has preoccupied men's minds for many centuries. Those who believe in Allah (SWT) 'God' seem to agree that the limited finite human intelligence cannot prove the existence of the infinite boundless of Allah (SWT) 'God'. It can only illustrate or demonstrate his existence to the satisfaction of the curious human mind.
Those who deny Allah's (SWT) 'God' claim to rely on science, philosophy, or special theories of knowledge. Their arguments are sometimes inapplicable, sometimes irrelevant, always complex, and often incomprehensible. However, the developed mind will find its way to Allah (SWT) 'God'. Failure to find the way does not mean that there is no way. Denial of reality does not make it unreal.

You are responsible for every thought word and deed.
I have read that if someone is not where they should be like hell, you can pray for them to get out. I think the hardest part is forgiving yourself. You put judgment on yourself. God is a Lover, not a fighter. He will forgive you and Love you but when the book of records is opened and you messed up. You may not be able to forgive yourself because you didn't do what you were supposed to do in your life. There are consequences for behavior set up called Universal laws. God does not have to judge you because when you break a law, you suffer the consequence.

While the idea of a second chance for salvation is appealing, the Bible is clear that death is the end of all chances. Hebrews 9:27 tells us that we die, and then face judgment. So, as long as a person is alive, he has a second, third, fourth, fifth, etc. chance to accept Christ and be saved (John 3:16; Romans 10:9-10; Acts 16:31). Once a person dies, there are no more chances.

No, you have to accept Christ as the payment for you sin, before you die, because after death comes judgment, so you need to ask for forgiveness and while you are alive, otherwise it will be too late. Today is the day of salvation.

well if you are have accepted Christ's sacrifice for your sins then He has forgiven you past present and future, but we still ask forgiveness while still alive so that we can have a right relationship with God.. the idea that you can get forgiveness after death was developed by the catholic church to recieve money it was a power thing and they were wrong you cant pray people out of hell or be forgiven after death, but if you are saved and you die without asking for forgiveness you still go to heaven and have been covered by the blood of christ.

Sorry, but when you are dead, you won't be able to do anything, because you will not be conscious.
Ecclesiastes 9:5, 6
5 For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten.
6 Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished; neither have they any more a portion for ever in any thing that is done under the sun.
When you die, whatever path you have chosen is set in stone and cannot be changed. You will either be resurrected to eternal life or eternal damnation, no changing around.

It is appointed unto man once to die and then judgment.

Once you are dead there is no more need of forgiveness. If you never asked when you were alive it will be too late when you are dead.

As a Catholic, I have read excerpts of St. Faustina's diary. She saw visions of Christ and He would speak with her often. She was made a saint in 2001.

In one vision, Christ told her that He was the King of Mercy, and then showed her the vision of a soul that had just died who had not repented nor accepted Jesus as His savior while he was alive. Three times Jesus asked the soul to accept Him and three times the soul said no.

This showed that there is mercy after death, but if you've lived your life with a hardened heart, that after death and even with Jesus right before you, you will still not accept Him.

It seems hard to believe that anyone would not accept Him while looking at Him, but ask any Christian about their faith. It is very hard to accept all of His mercy and love when you know you're not worthy of perfect love.

Faith is built over time. It is best to know Jesus now. Everyday you live without Him, the harder your heart might grow.

No. God has given us a lifetime to choose Him and ask for forgiveness thru His Son, Jesus. Once you die, your body returns to dust and your soul, spirit goes immediately to heaven or hell. There is no waiting period or time period to repent. pray or be prayed for. Basically, the Bible states this without any reference to a purgatory as some religions claim. The bible says "Today is the day of Salvation". Your choices while you live determines your eternal destiny. God bless

I do not have the mind of God only the compassion which I feel he writes across the hearts of all those created for his purpose. I personally feel that someone who has the heart to question and continually seeks to please God , asking for guidance , and carries that question even in death may receive an answer from a merciful , kind and just God.
