I hope that bible **** is not true, really. People and I, deserve to get punished, you should not be able to get away with things, what if you killed someone, you can just be forgiven? And most people commit sins regularly and don't regret them, and just keep doing them without learning from them. I want to be punished for what I did wrong. It is not just or right for someone to get off so easy. I hope God is not so forgiving and that He really teaches us a lesson and sends us to hell. The way the human race is is so offensive. I don't think anyone, not even Him woudl be happy with what we are doing to ourselves and His world that He created for us.

FYI, I am NOT Christian, god no, I have no religion, I just believe in that someone made us and might watch my back, whether it be called God or Buddhi. That's all, and hell is here on earth already, I actually don't believe in heaven or hell, I believe when we die, we will just snap back into darkness as if we never existed.

My first instinct was to report this but I didn't. After reading my impression is that you are terribly bitter! I don't understand why God puts up with us either - I see the wickedness that goes on around us, and I see how people have lost their moral compass and don't care - indeed, it seems they rejoice in their sinful lifestyles and then yell at me for "judging" when I tell them God's way.
But people don't get off entirely free - there are consequences for breaking God's law. STDs, diseases, addictions, emotional turmoil - these are all consequences for the sinful things we do, and some of them are utterly devastating. People aren't getting off free at all - sometimes it just takes a while for the consequences to catch up to them.
At the same time, though, aren't you glad that we have the chance to be forgiven of all those sins we commit? Because we *all* do them. We all lie, we all disobey and lust and covet. We are all sinners - including you. God's mercy and forgiveness are extended to you as well. You're right, God is NOT happy with the way we are living our lives in sin....but because He loves us so deeply He has made a way that we can be delivered from all those sins.
You seem to have some burden of guilt and anger on your shoulders. I think it speaks volumes about your character that you want to bear the consequences for your actions - that's rare in this day where people won't even take responsibility for what they do! But please, try to see past your feelings for a few minutes. Even if you were punished for your sins, that still wouldn't be enough to pay that debt before God. You could spend your life punishing yourself and it still wouldn't take your sins away. Only Jesus can do that for you. That's one wonderful thing about God - He knows exactly what you've done and just how sinful you are and yet He wants to help you anyways! He loves you, and you really need His help.
I hope this helped you in some way.

it is likely certainly one of the questions that one and all started my thinking in that there actual isn't a God as we depict it. Jesus isn't a man or woman, he's a illustration of the sunlight. And the bible is actual written with code that confirms this. as an example, you realize the story of while Jesus turns 'water into wine'? It became describing the recommendations-set of the sunlight 'Jesus' taking the water from the floor and raining it down onto the flora, which a number of have been grapes.. this made the grapes advance and arranged to be grew to become into wine. Jesus is a tale that has been duplicated for the duration of background, beginning interior the Egyptian age, look up 'Horus' and you will see. faith is not any greater beneficial than a company, they do no longer pay tax and that they use worry to transform human beings to have self assurance their fairy thoughts. the in simple terms top end I come to is that there is not any 'god' except you compliment the sunlight-which you will desire to for without it we does not be right here. Astrology is a greater tangible theory because it works on the universe and the relevance of our planets place. apart from i could ask what genuine Christians would desire to declare on the dinosaurs? and how many human beings have been raped, incarcerated or murdered interior the call of God? And if this international is enjoyed plenty via God, why is there plenty conflict, famine, corruption, inequality? Do you think of he/she could be pleased together with his/her introduction? a great guy stated, God would desire to be a guy, as a results of fact a woman does not cut back to rubble like this! One final be conscious, I see there are a number of references to the watchtower. anybody who seeks the certainty shouldn't placed all their eggs into one basket. you will desire to look on the argument from each and every perspective and be subjective. otherwise we would nevertheless have self assurance the international is flat and santa claus is genuine. (Sorry little ones)

Ok, I understand what your saying, so...
The gift of salvation is free to anyone who will accept it, but not everyone who says they accept it does.
To accept this gift of salvation means that you are truly sorry and repentant of your sins and that, while you cannot ever live a perfect life, without any sin, since we are humans, that we will try our hardest to live for God, the way he wants us to live.
If we have truly accepted the gift of salvation, we will live our lives as best we can, the way our God says to live. If we just give lipservice to God and say we have accepted him, but haven't really in our hearts, there will be no change. Often this happens because the person does not want to submit their lives to the rules that their God set up for them (problems with authority?), this is one of the reasons people are atheists, or agnostics.
I hope that helps, I know it's hard to see such open forgiveness, but the whole thing about God is, that he is beyond our understanding, because he created us and we are limited while he is unlimited.
Feel free to email,
Jess

There's a big difference between God forgiving us our sins and paying for what we do here on earth. Just being forgiven doesnt mean the consequences are forgotten. What God forgives and what society forgives are two very different things.

Jeffrey Dahmer repented at the last minute supposedly so he's going to heaven. Gandhi and the Dalai Lama on the other hand are going straight to Hell for being non-believers. Nice huh?

what do you expect Him to lead a revolution and install Himself as your dictator so He can kill without going to jail?
cause perhaps you haven't given God, the right to kill or punish?
The Masters have a Master in heaven. what this could mean reading the word heaven closely...?
GOD=
G+O+D=
7+15+4=
26=
2+6=
8=
H
thus God=H
so read the peices within the word heaven(or roots of the word) and heaven shows:
heaven=
God e a \v/ /eri (sealed together)
so if the \v/=IV I sealed together, it equals
IIII I sealed together.
so
\v/ /eri (sealed together)=
IIII I /eri (sealed together)
ie a /eri (seald together) like IIII I.
thus i can be no other then the God of Heaven.
further proofs of God's identity on My 360 blog:
so is their really any incentive for God of Heaven to set up His kingdom on earth. Or do existing rulers have that all locked up? personally i like the country i live in, so not really interested in changing it too much, except legally through voting proceedures, of course.
so does worldly words proove Israel is not the kingdom of Heaven like the movie stated?
unless of course, my part-german roots means we could take it over? not that i would want the dry arid land.

What I find bewildering about Christian dogma is the heaven and hell concept. Where do NORMAL human beings go? Most humans have both good and bad in them. Very few of us are angelic. Where are we sent? LOL

The terrifying part is that deep down everyone knows God and Jesus are just mechanisms for rationalization. Most people like living on the banks of De Nile.
The only entities we have to answer to are ourselves and others. It's daunting --- humans having to take responsibility for humans.

God forgives us, yes, but for everything we do there is a concequence, whether good or bad. True repentece is asking God to forgive you, AND ( lots of ppl don't see that and) turning away from your sin. God forgave David for his sin of killing and commiting adultry, yet he lost his baby as the concequence. There will always be a conter reaction to everything you do. I'm so thankful that God forgave me even though I have done nothing to deserve it. It's amazing that God knew what I'd do yet, he died for me anyhow. He loved me even though He knew I'd let him down. He's so awesome.

Forgiveness does not eliminate punishment....although it may mitigate it.
And forgiveness is only granted to those who sincerely ask for it and strive to improve themselves in the wake of a sin.
