moral system,God doesnt ask much.?

Question

Good and bad ,right and wrong is a bit broader than simple yes/no.

A lot of people are "not bad",less people are good,

good people are responsible for more bad than not bad people but good people achieve more so which system is better?

Its harder to be good and all God ever asked us to be is not bad,just avoid sin,avoid doing bad,

Do this and we will be ok,so how is it some people have such a hard time with God and blame Him for everything.

Am i wrong?

Can we win just so long as we dont conceed any goals?

Answer 1

It's not that it's impossible to be good - it's just impossible to be perfect. Being good is a choice. A constant decision. Those who believe God wants us to be perfect are in error. He knows that's not going to happen. We can be good, as good as we can be. He didn't issue "rules and regulations" to set us up for failure. But since we cannot be perfect, we basically live in sin - that is we live "outside of the Word". That's why we seek His salvation, because we know we are separated from God by sin and only He can forgive us our sins.

Which system is better? Be good, be great, be all that you can be - love the Lord and be safe, be His.

Answer 2

Actually, Most people are good, and very little bad. The problem is that the bible and god make it absolutely impossible to be good. Every thought can be a sin. Not only that but we are born with original sin! Hows that. The whole thing is geared on how bad you are and always asking forgiveness. Most people are good. So what if you thought about your neighbors wife, As long as you don't cross the line. Try NOT to think of some one else once in a while. You can't. Or lying, We all do. To get out of something we really don't want to say no to, or not hurting a friends feelings. So people are really pretty good. But god, says we are all bad.
So god makes in practical impossible for man to be good. No. Instead we are supposed to get good from god. But that's not a good god to me.

Answer 3

The "moral" question involves not just good and bad, but FLESH and SPIRIT.

Of "flesh" concerns the Father only where your attitutes and behaviors affect your own Maat (serenity) and that of others. If that which you DO in life affects the purity of spirit, then it is BAD for it will affect your Maat. When MIND is affected, so are your behaviors and your attitudes.

Restraint in the Flesh, in the EASIEST AND WEAKEST of behaviors, DISCIPLINES the spirit. When a spirit is disciplined, so is your soul and life in general will be serene.

To have NO goal, is to be COMPLACENT for you achieve NOTHING. To FEAR that which may be wrong, is also restraint from LEARNING the "difference." Once you have LEARNED right from wrong in many areas, you LEARN wisdom as to what your flesh should be disciplined in "rejecting" for the good of Maat. Good or bad is predetermined by your disciplines and the REALITIES of your success to EXIST.........

Well, I think shooting my neighbors cats when they go in my trash cans is a GOOD thing. God did say we should dominate the beasts, right?

But my neighbors have a problem with me BBQ'ing the furry little critters.

See, good and bad in god's eyes are never as clear as you think.

Answer 5

well ... concentrating on the bad or the sin is the wrong way of approaching it .. we are saved by grace not by works .. so it works in reverse imo .. first u fix ur spirit then it affects a change to ur behavior ..
