so god makes you, and you are born cause of your mom right? okay and you will go to hell for committing a sin right? but just by being born you are already guilty of the original sin even though you had nothing to do with it. and the only way to save yourself is to believe in god, follow the commandments, not sin and accept Jesus christ. so technically arent we being set up so that we have to follow his rules?

God makes you for his own pleasure. He wants you to do everything right and according to His plan. He wants to use you to make this world a better place and let people around you know the true meaning of love. However, he gives you a choice to either accept his way or go your own way. He does so because he doesn't want you to follow him because you have to, rather that you choose to. Sadly, we have a tendency to be independent of God and think we can handle everything ourselves. In doing so, we often screw up. When we do, we think God "set us up" and it's always God's fault.
The 10 commandments are laws that show us how we are lacking. There is no way that we can be perfect, following all God's rules and not sin. God knows that, that's why He send his own beloved son to earth and die for us in the Cross. Jesus pays for each and every sin in the past, present and future that we commit with his blood. If we would only believe that Jesus died for us and resurrect on the third day, our sins are covered. We will only go to hell if we reject God and forbid the Holy Spirit.to work in us.
May God Bless You.

Well, I guess you could look at it that way tho that's pretty cynically. God created us. Not following Christ back to God will make us miss out on the best of life, both in this life and the next. Sure we didn't ask to be born. But we were born, so we might as well make the best of it. God's way is the best. There are absolutes in life. Everyone cannot make up his own rules. People are not reliable and society could not exist if everyone did what was right in his own eyes because most people would only care about what works best for themselves.
Hell is the natural result of a path we follow that is contrary to God's natural laws. We don't know what is ahead in life so that is why we Christians trust the Bible to guide our lives.

That BS is all about Control. Some people need and others don't. .. Its ok to believe in it. Just don't get carried away. (Strap a bomb to yourself and scream god before you kill other people)
You gotta understand that in life the most important thing to do is be nice to each other and be understanding. People don't understand that when someone has a bad day. They have to vent and sometimes they will do this on the road or maybe even in a department store. They don't realize they are venting on a person they don't even know. They just have to release the steam. So if you can understand that and not get mad back at the person. You taking a bigger step then most people.
You should read history of the biggest religions. Most of them have some kind of Holy war. Hello? Do you think god would want you to kill another human being on this planet? NO, and when someone says god told me that he wants us to attack the "Whatever" He is using you to gain control for his own personal agenda. You see it happen in Iraq with that Al shadar guy
Just be nice to people, help out whenever you can. Even if that means getting the paper for your elderly neighbor. Or helping out at a Soup kitchen.

it is not substantial how a lot of human beings stay in a property for the council tax till there is purely one man or woman. As a pupil you do not could pay so if it have been you and one buddy who's working interior the placement there may well be a 25% decrease fee available. regrettably there are 2 workers on your accomodation so afraid you're out of success because of the fact the valuables nonetheless demands finished council tax to be paid. Council tax incorporates 2 areas, the valuables and the inhabitants. so so which you could ask your flatmates to divided the council tax into the two areas and you pay a third of the valuables yet not one of the inhabitants and that they then pay a third each and every of the valuables and 0.5 each and every of the inhabitants. best to take a seat down and talk the difficulty frivolously particularly than crying foul. They maybe prepared to alter rents in case you attitude the difficulty in a peaceful reasoned way.

I'm not sure what "original sin" you're talking about. Being born is not a sin. God creates us as a gift; we are all His children, and just like we have to Obey Thy Mother and Father, we are therefore obeying God, our Father. Life now is an in-between stage between being created by God and being reunited with Him again in the end; but only the worthy are given that privelage.

Original Sin is False.
We are not Born with Original Sin, we are Born with Messed Up Spirits.
Adam Messed his Spirit Up and Passed it Down to the Rest of US.
It comes through the Males, that is why Jesus Couldn't have an Earthly Father.
You have to get that Messed Up Spirit "Recreated" (Born-Again, Saved).
Jesus is The Only One Who can Recreate it for you.
You have a FreeWill.
You Have to Give Jesus Permission to Save (Recreate) you (a Spirit, living in a Body).
And Yes, you (all of you--I have already been Recreated, Saved) are being Set Up by GOD.
For Salvation.
HopeFully all of you will say "Yes" to Jesus.

This life will only set up your eternity and it is all your own choice. Sure God sent His Son to die for our sins so all who come to Him may have eternal life but not everyone wants to follow Christ but prefer to follow the devil even if it is unknowingly

The simple answer to that is God wants us to worship him and to build a growing relationship with him. The issue is that he made us to have free will, we have the choice to serve him or not. It is our choices that make the difference. If we choose not to believe in him we only hurt ourselves. If we Chose to serve him we can find peace and joy in our own lives that can be found no other way. Where we are being set up is by His fallen arch angel Lucifer (aka Satan) who would rather us be deceived and not believe in God.

You aren't being "set up". That's just how it all works for everyone, like it or not. If it were a situation where it applied to some but not others, maybe one could say that it was a set up. A set up implies something out of character or out of the ordinary that wouldn't apply normally to most people.
