Does God love all human beings?

Question

If God loves all humans, why is it that he allows them to suffer? Ask yourself would your parents allow you to suffer from starvation or poverty like you see of homeless children in the city where you live in?

If God loves all humans why does he not prevent humans from being harmed when he knows everything that will take place in the future? Ask yourself would your parents allow you to get on a plane if they knew ahead of time that the plane would crash and burn?

If God loves all human beings, why are babies born attached at the heads, or that some are born with disorders like autism and down syndrome? Ask yourself would your parents give birth to you so that you can experience the miracle of life as a unique child with a permanent disability?

If you parents acted like the way God acts would you say that they love you?

Please answer the question. I didn't ask for background information. The question is plain and simple.

1) Does God love all human beings? (yes/no)
2) If your parents acted like I described above, would you say they loved you? (yes/no)

Really people it's that simple.

Can anyone at least answer me one simple question??

I ask would you feel that your parents love you if they acted like God did in my examples above? Be honest now.

Really its not too complicated a question is it? All I need is a yes or a no.

XX you wrote: "If you don't want to starv then you need to work to get food. If a child starvs (or anyone) it is because of lazyness or doesn't have enough know-how. God also wants you to build faith in him."

Wow! That's as easy as it sounds isn't it. So are you saying a child who is born into poverty is lazy? A child who was left orphaned because of war or other circumstances is lazy? A child who has a mental disorder and can't possibly function without a support system lazy? What could possibly be right or just in starving someone or making someone suffer in order to make them build faith in you? But then you say God is only responsible for good things, it's free will that creates most of the bad things in your life isn't it?

Answer 1

this is an unfair question , and you know it...it cant be answered in one word. its not that simple

Answer 2

I think the best way you can answer this question for yourself is by asking another:
Do you love yourself?
God DOES love all humans, because GOD (not the marketed jealous tyrant) IS in everyone, everything.
In other words, you ARE God.
Is this blasphemy? Some would say so.
Then again, keep your mind open and consider this lesson that laser technology has taught us:
When a laser image is made of a 3-dimensional object - say, for instance, and apple, the image of the apple is 'burnt' into a plate.
When you look at this plate, you will see an apple, as though it was really there, not like a painting of an apple. It has 3-dimensional quality.
Now, let's say that the plate on which this image was burnt on is shattered into many little pieces.
You would expect to see parts of an apple on each one, wouldn't you?
Surprise! The WHOLE apple shows in each tiny fragment of the shattered laser plate.
The only difference is, the smaller the pieces get, the fuzzier the image is.
So, how about that?
This is just for starters. It gets better.
Imagine this:
There is this great BEING, independently wealthy (it owns all of the universe, manipulates any energies it wants to, when and how)
It has a constant energy, without vibrations, changes. The BEING is one of Great Joy.
In all this perfection (or, as mathematicians would say: in this system), there comes about a longing - a deviation, however small, from 'perfection'.
A process occurs in which an originally linear but 'boring' equation becomes 'unlinear', but much more entertaining - for all involved.
The mad ride begins.
From a primordial 'soup', we have cell divison, the formation of X and Y chromosomes, male and female, gravity and levity, hot and cold, and a whole myriad of contradictions that seem to all tie together in what our present consciousness calls 'a world'.
From here, beings are created. Following the primordial soup, they initially exist as 'plancton'. Some of these plancton follow the call for further development and therefore develop more complicated cell structure and organization.
Others do not. The ones who do not move on are eaten, but some remain; and thus is born a premise of this planet which SOME adhere to: mostly native cultures.
At one point, the system of evolution follows a mathematical rule.
Any irrational equation, when iterated enough times, will result in chaos (Ad lib quoting Mandelbrot).
At the same time, this same irrational equation MAY exhibit cycles of 'truism" - cycles when, even for a time, it represents itself the way it was first encountered.
Forget about rigid systems. Even forget about your parent 'owing' you anything.
Things are what things are. Two-headed babies are born. Siamese twins are born. People die at a young age. My second son died at age 13.
Yes, it was a shock THEN (17 years ago). It is not now.
Love is not like a candy dispenser.
Love is the acceptance of ALL-That-Is, and so LOVE comes round circle, right back to you.
All that needed to be created has already been created.
What to do with it is up to each individual.
If your previous concept of GOD was some of a co-dependent despot, why not let go of a GOD created in the image of man?
Let All-That-Is be all that is. Make your own choices. You can.

Answer 3

If you believe in god then usually you believe in some form of life after death. If you live after you die then death is a transition not an end so death is not cruel. So what about suffering? A lot of suffering is our own doing. We have free will and some use it better then others. Some suffering is due to the world around us. From that we learn. We would have never learned to grow crops if we hadn't been hungry. We would have never built great cities if we didn't need shelter. The world teaches and we don't understand all the lessons yet but that doesn't mean they are cruel.
If we are supposed to be pets then your right god is not the best keeper we could imagine. If were supposed to become something better then we are then we need a reason to learn. Some lessons are taught with a spanking.

Edit: Sorry I didn't realize you only would accept a yes or no answer. Yes then. God love everyone.

Answer 4

God is real, and He loves you (even if you are the most naughty child in the world, or the most wicked adult). He knows all your weaknesses and struggles, and even if you go wrong (even in a big way) He still loves you. What He does not love is the wrong you have done – but He still loves you. He will never ‘turn His back’ on the person who is sorry and asks for help to be put right again – never! Even if everyone else does, and nobody else understands, He does, and He will never leave you even if you leave Him from time to time.

Regarding parents, will u say, ur parents don't love u, if they punish you for ur wrong doings???


There will be no meaning for life on this World, if there are no sufferings. In the sight of God, there is huge reward for patience.

God has done many favors upon us, and we don't realise them. For example, when u were born, u didn't know, how important it is to have the ability to see, hear, speak, walk and do all our work by ourself, but He gave u all that.

Regarding the handicapped children, God has given them dsiability in one form, but there are good at other things. It is because of them, that some inventions are done. For example, science has tried to find a way for the blind people. If there are no sufferings and if we get food without working for it, then we all will be sitting idly and the proverb says: "An idle mind is a devil's workshop". On the last Day of Judgement, God will ask forgiveness from all those people whem He made handicapped on Earth. Life on Earth is for few days, but we will forever in the Hereafter.

In His Glorious Book, God has said:

1. Blessed be He in Whose hands is Dominion; and He over all things hath Power;-

2. He Who created Death and Life, that He may try which of you is best in deed: and He is the Exalted in Might, Oft-Forgiving;- (Chapter 67)

Answer 5

God isn't a superhero, a universal fix-it-all, or a psychic. He doesn't give us instructions on little things. Anyone who steps on a plane should be smart enough to know that planes sometimes crash. As far as why some people have medical conditions, well sh*t happens. That's all it is.
Take it or leave it. God is wonderful and perfect. We could not hope to justify or even explain things that are much bigger than us. God is like that.
As far as loving everyone, God is... not willing that any should perish but all come to repentance. -2 Peter 3:9.
If you are evil, and confirm yourself in wickedness, then all bets are off. God would hate you then. There would have been a line you would have crossed.

Answer 6

No he does not love all human beings he completely hates gays bi's and lesbians and yea and also i do not believe that he even exists i myself am a pagan/Wicca if god truly was alive he wouldn't let us suffer unless there really is a god and that he just doesn't care about us and that maybe if he does exist he only created us to live on our own without his help hes probably sleeping as i am typing who knows all i know is that why would such a "benevolent" god as the "christians" call it make an amazing world and not care about any of the people suffering from depression loss of a loved one or spouse hellish life or anything else it kind of makes you think a little bit doesn't it? hope this helps. one more thing if he truly exists why does he punish people that do bad things? why doesn't he help them if he truly is a real person maybe christians were bored one day and thought "o look let's make up a fake god so everyone can worship him just for fun!" so yea, it's hard to believe in anything these days honestly.

Answer 7

God does love all humans, it is the sin that he hates. God allows some bad things to happen only so that you know you will need someone at some point in your life and the one he want's you to come to is him. Trials come to build charactor with in you. To make you a better person. you asked the question "would your parents allow you to suffer from starvation or poverty" Any good parent will do there best to keep that from happening including God. He is not going to just hand everything to you and neither will a good parent. You have to work for somethings. Everything is there for you to live you just have to get it and use it. If you don't want to starv then you need to work to get food. If a child starvs (or anyone) it is because of lazyness or doesn't have enough know-how. God also wants you to build faith in him.

You keep refering to parents in comparison with God and I think that is where your loosing sight on the real issue. What seems to be comming out at me from your writings is that you don't love God. Bad things happen to people alot of the times because they don't love him. God is not going to make your life easy cuz you love him. If he gave you everything It would make him the servant to you. He wouldn't be the creator anymore, he'd be a servant. God will not let you turn him into a servant.

About the babies bring deformed, you will want to blame man for that. God has nothing to do with that. God has given us the free will to do as we please but we will answer to him for all things we do. Man is the reason for deformaties. The things we eat and drink and inject into our bodies is what causes these problems. Just look at your world right now. Mercury in vacceens causing brain damage. Toxins in the water causing deformaties, hormones in the meats and milk we drink causing sickness in us and causing our little girls to develope at a young age. Bottom line is that things like this happen because most of us don't love him, listen to him or follow him. You seriously need to re-think what your saying here.

Answer 8

Yes in line with islamic teaching God loves all creatures including all human beings.God gives them their daily livelihood for satisfying their needs.God loves birds,spiders etc.God loves human beings if human beings also remember and love God too.God has given the last holy book Al Qur'an as the life guide for all human beings.This holy book contains a warning what should be done and what should not be done by human beings if trhey want a safety life here in this world and in the life after death.It is free for human beings to select itwith a consequencies.So God had given so many examples in the holy Qur'an for the people who did not obey God's warnings..God created also satans for temtating human beings.Starvation or poverty isd the form of testing or trying from God.If the poors are keeping their lust patiently by keep trying to make a better condition God will help the poor.God decided the last destiny of each human but each human does know it.Harm condition will not be accepted by human who acts prudently but if it happened to him/her it is his/her fate decided by God we should believe it and accepted it.We can not avoid what decision have given by God to us.God has the right fot it by saing be happened something will occure to us such as plane crash landing,eart quake,storms,
floods and other natural disasters because human beings made so many destructions and bloodshed in this world.God was angry to them.

Answer 9

dont be an atheist ! i bear witness of jesus, and ive seen an angelic sort person. there are actually not under 10 human beings on R&S who additionally declare to be a witness. there are thousands of folk who declare to verify jesus, regardless of in the event that they bounce to the incorrect conclusions. interior the LDS and Jehova witness attitude, the trinity isn't real doctrine. in LDS theology and revelation on my own, God is a resurrected Immortal, basically like jesus is defined. see Gen 18, the place the Lord looks to abraham on the valley of mamre interior the nineteenth century, the mormons had an elder named parley p pratt, and he's regular for asserting God is a God of physique aspects and passions. no longer basically that ! many elders believed and taught that God has better halves in heaven. why create intercourse while not having a spouse. why create intercourse and not utilising a functioning physique./!

Answer 10

If God loves all humans, why does He allow people to waste their time asking rhetorical questions on the Yahoo! Answers site instead of actually going out and improving the human condition, as He quite explicitly asked us to do quite some time ago?

Of course, it's easy to be an armchair philosopher and ponder the existence of God over your Snapple Iced Tea, and come up with half-baked conclusions far from the comforts of reality.

Best of luck to you, O master of questions. I wish you good findings on your journey of philosophy. Next time, do try to read up on the subject first, though.

Answer 11

Yes.
Yes sometimes children suffer because their parents don't allow them candy all days. That's the way we suffer too we think we know what's best for us but our Father knows what's really the best.

God is love.
He allows evil only to draw some greater good from it.

Our destination is heaven.
