I like the idea that God doesn't give up on us. It makes sense! After all, according to His Bible, this is all His doing anyway, right? I also like the idea that we would be given as much time as we need to perfect ourselves---that is called Reincarnation----Blessings!

Everybody has 24 hours in a day, no exception to the rules. We set times to do a certain task in our lives, I believe it's a same way for God, otherwise He will be unfair. You can't do evil all of your life to other people and not reap the consequences for it, that would be unfair for the others who had to endure that wicked person's deeds. Therefore, yes, repent while still is day. God bless.

Yes God wants the best for everyone, but there are people out there that don't want what God has to offer, A home where there is no sickness. dying, free of imorality. Theives, murders, rapists, those people will not enter the gates of heaven until they repent from there ways and follow the path of Jesus Christ. Those people will enter Hell.

Well, in defense of Christians - they believe that you chose to go to hell. That you chose not to accept Jesus as your salvation, your gift. That you choose not to be with G-d. That G-d is merely giving you what you want - a life away from Him when you are sent to hell instead of heaven.
I can see where you are coming from and understand. But in the same way - we have to be responsible for our own desicions.
G-d is not just some loving, happy, forever allowing us to make mistakes against Him. G-d is also just. Something that people seem to forget. We are held accountable for our mistakes - because G-d is both just and love.
It is not about reaching ultimate perfection - but instead reaching a state where you strive daily to do G-d's will. Where you live how G-d wants you to live and develop a close and personal relationship with G-d, knowing that the Divine spark of His love rests inside you.
G-d does not give up anyone - but our wrongs do not slip through the cracks. We must be held accountable for them, and pay for them.

I wont quote the true word of God as you wish but you did ask why Christians believe as they do. Christians seek God's truth and through this receive a gift of faith and through faith they receive revelation and have a personal relationship with the real God. God is a righteous and merciful.

You know what, reading your question I don't even see a thoughtful, serious question. All I hear is pain and anger. You really don't understand God and faith at all.
God loves all of us and wants what is best for everyone. But we just throw that love back in His face by disobeying His laws, sinning, and hurting each other. Sure, God IS all powerful and He could take away all the bad things in the world and force us to be kind to each other, to obey Him, and to stop sinning. But what kind of world would that be? Free will is a wonderful gift and without it we would be nothing but puppets or robots. We wouldn't be human and the life we were living wouldn't be much of a life.

Somebody get this guy a straight jacket and a muzzle. I refuse to cast my pearls before swine. How much enjoyment you seem to get at beating up God and Christians with your anger. Well toot-a-loo, you don't really want to understand because you enjoy the hate too much. So be miserable by yourself!

What do you mean God doesn't believe in his people. The fact that God gave us free will shows that He does believe in us. God never gives up on anyone. At times He will test you but that is only to strengthen your faith in Him.
