can anyone answer these questions about the christian god?

Question

-would god really send someone to hell? i mean what if there is this little kid who lives in a third world country and he doesn't know god or the ten comandments and he steals some food because he is starving. so would god really send him to hell because he never worshipped and he broke a commandment?

-if there is a god and you went to heaven, what would it be like? i have trouble figuring this one out because everyone has different opinions and you can't make a heaven that will please everyone can you?

-if god knows everything about us, then how come he doesn't do anything to prove that he is there? if he is real then he would know that i am confused about what to believe. how come he doesnt prove that he exists in some way so that we will know what to belive?

i'm having trouble with deciding what to believe because logic kind of tells me that god isn't real. if you can answer even one of these questions, that would be very helpful.

thanks :-)

Answer 1

First of all there are Gospel preachers everywhere. God is not without a witness.

Second, the Bible says that heaven is so wonderful, that the apostle Paul couldn't find words to do it justice, it wouldn't be right to try and describe it. The best this world has to offer, is street pavement in heaven.

Third, Jesus has revealed Himself in the Bible. Accept that testimony.

Answer 2

In the case of children, especially in those countries who have not heard of God, He is a just God. He will not condemn those who have not heard of him or of his word. There is also an age of accountability that is mentioned. The age is 20. It is my understanding that if a child does not know right from wrong in God's eyes, they are not condemned. It is the parent's responsibility to teach the children. If the parents rejected God, it is not the child's fault. The parents are accountable for the child until that age. Therefore the child is not condemned for the actions of the parent, but the other way around. If the people in other countries have indeed not heard, they are not condemned. The bible says, anyone who hears the word and rejects it is condemned. Not that they are condemned for not hearing it.
Heaven:
It will be a place of great Joy and harmony with God. There will be no sun because Gos' glory will be brighter than any sun can be. We will have mansions and treasure waiting for us and each have a crown that reflects our devotion to Christ. The streets will be paved with Gold and it will be beyond anything anyone could ever imagine.
God is there, you have to look around you for the proof that he provides. Every day there is something on discovery channel, history channel and so on that they analyze what the Bible says and compare it to science. science proves again and again that we were created. History proves again and again that the Bible is indeed historical record. If you need more proof, Accept Jesus and you will know He is real in your own life, it is hard to explain, but you know that you know that you know.
I know, logic is a tricky matter. I have seen a river in Taiwan that flows uphill. Logic tells me that It can't be flowing uphill, but it is, so I believe what I see with my eyes. Turns out, it is at a 3% downgrade the whole time, but I cannot convince my eyes of that, so I have to believe that it flows down instead of up, on blind faith I have to beleive what that sighn said.

Answer 3

This question get answered all the time and the answer is still NO! Read Romans.
For all who have sinned without the Law will also perish without the Law, and all who have sinned under the Law will be judged by the Law; 13 for it is not the hearers of the Law who are just before God, but the doers of the Law will be justified. 14 For when Gentiles who do not have the Law do instinctively the things of the Law, these, not having the Law, are a law to themselves, 15 in that they show the work of the Law written in their hearts, their conscience bearing witness and their thoughts alternately accusing or else defending them,

Answer 4

God doesnt send people to hell it is their choice who they choose to follow,no a child is not resposible until the age of accountability the sin lies on the parents,everyone will have the oppurtunity to follow Him and know Him/He will make sure the gospel(good news)is spread throughout the world/no one knows for sure what heaven will be like we know there will be no pain,suffering no unpleasantness of any kind believing in God you must defy logic Gods ways are higher than ours and He knows what things we have need of and will supply them/logic is of the world we must worship,have faith and trust in the spirit

Answer 5

1. Yes if you don't accept Jesus as your savior you will burn in Hell fire for eternity it doesn't matter what age you are.. No where in the bible does it tell you different no excuses.
2. The Bible doesn't tell you what it is like. It is just eternal heavenly bliss as apposed to eternal Hell fire where the worm never dies and the flame is not quenched.
3. That is faith. You have to have faith. If God showed you then you wouldn't need faith. And what would be the purpose. The Devil has to have his dew you know.
4. Of course God is real. That is just the Devil giving you doubts. God made the Devil long before he made mankind you know. They just have to have their little game. Be careful don't let the Devil jump out and bite your butt.

Answer 6

that's a great question: why are clergy (over)knowledgeable? i've got not got a stable answer. i be attentive to that many lines of Christianity (alongside with mine) placed strenuous academic standards on their clergy, and learn it to be a discovered profession. I had to income to study Hebrew and Greek. i don't assume a cognitively challenged person could bypass the oral tests. i'm not asserting the Christian institutions are real approximately this, notwithstanding that's, for beneficial, what they do. so a great way as your 2d question is going, if I claimed to be attentive to what real blessing someone could desire to assume, nicely, i could be a liar. it may additionally be blasphemy to declare to be attentive to the techniques of God. i'm hoping people could nicely be alive to the mysteries of how God works in the international and of their lives. it quite is area of my interest as a minister to inspire that. i've got had the possibility to hitch worship amenities the place cognitively challenged people performed a huge area, and you're real that they could communicate with genuine holy awareness.

Answer 7

Aesity means self-existence. Aesity explains the metaphysical nature of God as a purely self-existent being that exists in complete actuality. God is not a being that is created by another god; neither does God create himself into existence. Rather, God has always existed as an unchanging, completely actualized being.


God has his Being of himself and to himself such that he is Absolute being and the definition of existence.
Since God’s essence is his nature and God’s existence is the same as his essence it follows that God is existence.

Answer 8

God does send certain people to hell, but not everyone you could imagine.

We don't have much description of heaven in the Bible.

As for evidence issues see http://www.bcbsr.com/topics/proof.html

More generally I would say I believe because the eyewitness testimony of Jesus life, ministry and miracles recorded in the gospels is convincing to me. Read them for yourself and see if they're convincing to you.

Answer 9

God is totally fair. Those who did not have an opportunity at salvation in the flesh will have 1000 yrs. during the millennium to accept Christ.

Answer 10

No, God would not send that child to Hell. A child is not old enough to make that decision for themselves. All children go to Heaven.

Nobody knows exactly what Heaven is like, other than it's perfection. Perfection will please everyone.

God wants us to believe based on our faith. He wants to separate those that have faith from those that do not. There is proof, but it's never really going to be good enough. Someone should believe of their own accord, not based on Him coming out and showing Himself.
