to say God is all love is to say that God even loves transgression and would forgive even the devil for mutilating God's creation (His love) for his own purpose. why do the most ignorant people seem to speak so boldly about God whom they do not know? What ever happened to the doctrine of retribution, that sin must be judged? don't people realize there is a day of judgement coming? that God sowed a sinless seed into this world through His son's blood, and He will reap a sinless generation?

it isn't knowing the mind of God, it is knowing what He has revealed through His Word. It is not that He expects you to be perfect, but to realize that this Jesus is the only one who ever was perfect and to acknowledge that His poverty was for our gain, that His death was so that we can have life. through the resurrection.

isn't it easier to think of God as all love and no judgment? If there will be no judgment, then no one would have to worry about sin! Ignorance is bliss, and some people choose to be ignorant in this matter most specifically since they don't want to think of the serious ramifications of what they do now will have on their eternity. Unfortunately, as many of us know, There is forgiveness for sin, through the shed blood of Jesus, and those who don't accept that and change will be left far from God for eternal damnation. Life is so short, people don't think God's word is real or relevant anymore, it's a shame because the world is going to hell in a handbasket!

There is a combination of God and karma going on, in my opinion. For example. Say you owe me 100 dollars because you broke my window. Just being human you were careless.
You don't have that money. Am I going to say, never mind, I will just pay for it myself? Do you learn not to be careless that way? I'm going to tell you, work for the money to pay for the repair.
So, you work hard scrubbing toilets for very little money to pay me back. I see you doing that. You are taking responsibility. So far you have made 50 dollars.
I am going to be a good guy here and let you off the hook. If you have *really* learned your lesson, what is the point of collecting the remaining 50 dollars?

Remember when Jesus said to Do Good unto your Enemy's. (unless their attacking you---then Defend YourSelf! ;)
There are Spirtual Laws in the Earth.
You can Operate them if you were the only one On the Earth.
We Operate them Daily.
Example:
A Person Cusses (curses) you and Operates those Laws "In The Negative"---he reaps what he has sown (curses) and gets back curses.
While he is Cussing you, you decide to do what Jesus Said---you Bless him,her and then You Reap what you have Sown, Blessings!
See how it works?
The Spiritual Laws Work all the Time.
GOD watches over them.
GOD can Show Mercy (if HE Decides too) if you Operate them in The Negative---SomeTimes!!!
SomeTimes what a Person has done cannot be Helped by GOD.
There are Reasons for this, has to do with alot of Things, but you can get Out of the Mercy of GOD.
Spiritual Laws:
Think of Gravity.
You can Slide Down a WaterSlide and have fun.
Or Accidently fall off of something and get Hurt.
Spiritual Laws! They were put Into the Earth befor we got Here.
The 10 Commandments OutLines Spiritual Laws.
The 10 Commandments were not given to US to make us Holy.
They were given to us to show US How to Operate These "Invisible" Laws FOR Blessings.
Hope this Helps.

Yeah, you are creepy. We are humans, God is smarter then that, he is not going to create human life and expect everyone to be perfect. Have you ever heard of DNA, genetics, brain waves, or even how we were raised or where we live that helps us make us who we are. Are bodies were not born perfect nor does God expect us to be perfect. Would you throw your kid in an oven and burn him if he was not perfect or not sorry for it. I cannot stand it when people try to make God out to be a cruel political figure. Life is not about politics and what is the point of living life if you have to worry about what happens to you after you die. The word sin is so overused. Humans make mistakes because that is how we learn and advance. If we never made mistakes we would just be like a robot with no emotions.

Because the majority do not know Him. Just like the politician that said John 16:3 was their favorite Bible verse- and actually meant John 3:16- but read 16:3 and you'll see the truth!

I find it funny how people know exactly the nature of god until one asks a difficult question and then they say I don't know what god thinks he works in mysterious ways beyond human understanding; which is it? And it isn't judgment that bothers the skeptic but bad judgment .

God is All-clever, He has not created devil and then felt sorry approximately that. From time immemorial, the only authentic God created with perfection the international of introduction and the international of revelation. devil isn't a effectual character exterior of guy, this is in basic terms an analogy of the decrease self in guy. If guy shall we his decrease self win over his bigger self, he might do all forms of undesirable issues. it is not devil to be to blame, yet guy might desire to take the accountability for his very own possibilities.

You mix, rather than compare, spiritual & spiritual.
Mixing "My God, my God" resulted in "forsaken",
for David in Psalms 22 and Jesus in Matthew 27.
First divide assunder soul & spirit: 1Cor 15; Heb 4:12.
Then also compare spirit-ual (law) & spirit-ual (grace).
Howbeit afterward, if law also spiritual of natural/spiritual?
It gets perverted, rather than converted. Point of 1Cor 15 !
Watch the news, and see just how perverted it can get.
The GRACE of our Lord Jesus Christ with you all. Amen.

You must have forgotten that God created Lucifer, and is all knowing, therefore created the ability for sin to enter the universe.
So according to your doctrine, God will display retribution and anger for something he create and knew would take place.
Kinda sadistic.
