God was not smart enough to come up with a plan for everyones salvation that was going to work. Is this logic?

Question

I mean how likely is it, that God was not smart enough to come up with a plan for everyone’s salvation that was going to work 100% of the time?

Would this not be the first thing that a loving God would do? As for the free will thing, wouldn't infinite love provide enough chances that every one made it home safely?

Flip flop. If The Bible clearly says, God is not willing that any man should perish but that all would come to the knowledge of Him.

Are you suggesting that the creation can over ride the will of the creator?

Answer 1

If you read the Bible you will think that He is not smart. But, if you listen to your heart and if you will try to look around you, you will find out that we don't need salvation. How can it be if the creator and the created are one. Who would need saving? There is only One God and there is no way we will miss Her. We will all go back to Him.

Another word for salvation is self-realization, realizing our own divinity within.

Answer 2

No, it doesn't make any logic. god is more smart than everything. He created all, so how could be he didn't smart enough!
Why we will go to the paradise unless we did everything we can and know to find our salvation ,that is the value of being a live. Find your salvation way and you should bear its impediments because it will not be covered with flowers. God knows what we will do and how but he don't choose our deeds he give us the freedom to do what we want and that's why we will be responsible about our deeds.

I think God was extremely smart.Love is not everything. It's an option and a choice one was given. How one uses it is up to each individual and there conscience.
The Lord may have been our maker, why would you logically blame the man for all our mistakes.
He may have made us in his own image. He did not expect us to follow in his footsteps in all good things. The brain we have is unpredictable we make choices be it good or bad we are not without sin.

I think you will find, in life we blame others for our mistakes, why??? that's life.
We are on this earth for a limited time, When where how and what we do with that time is really up to you.
Love well there is a lot of it, but we humans abuse it in many forms. Infinite Love, no that is something that many of us humans have lost in the midst of something else.

Tell me what do you think is Infinite Love???

Greetings Friend,

I could not agree with you more. And, for those who are Christian would you not have to believe that Jesus did enough for us to be saved? If there is something, anything, that we have to do to get saved, then Jesus died in vain. The Christian message is powerful, maybe too powerful. What we do has nothing to do with salvation. Salvation is God's unmerited grace. Was not Jesus resurrection enough to show us that his death was sufficient to save us all? No ifs, ands, or but. Jesus either paid the price or he didn't. He didn't pay the price if... He did pay the price but... He paid the price, period. Our morality has nothing to do with our salvation. Our righteousness is filthy rags. We cannot save ourselves. To go further, you don't even have to believe in Jesus. My belief or disbelief has nothing to do with whether or not Jesus died in truth or not. Again, morality is not the same as salvation. So, live in peace my friends. God does have a plan and it does include you. God's love is enough.

sending love,

It is written in the Bible..that this won't make you lose salvation.
If you think well, actually we work all the time. When learning about the lord in Sundays, we still go to work :).
And even if you don't go to curch in the holly day, we can still do God's work. So..if you think of God all that time and try to make a good change in others' life then you have the salvation.
We have to see others' intrest, to love :).
This is what we are teached.
Blessings!

Answer 6

Maybe, within the framework of the question that is, God is infinitely patient. Only we, as finite beings, perceive that some do not make it because they pass out of our knowledge in a fallen state. Just as some people write off an evildoer as unredeemable, while others maintain faith in them and help to rehabilitate them, perhaps providing a spark which brings them to better understanding. Perhaps our timeline is not long enough.

Answer 7

MANY enter the gates which lead to the destruction of Comfort from on high. FEW have access to the Comforter while living in this world, satan's kingdom.

The one thing, which the MANY have in common, is their power OVER God's desire for their eternal salvation. They ALL consider the supreme sacrifice of Jesus, the Lord, as if a gamble which he made upon man's FREE will.

Romans 9:21, "Hath not the potter power OVER the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?" I've been told that this was only done in OT times, but look at verse 24, "EVEN US, whom he hath called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles".

People confuse the discipline of our Father, upon His disobedient children, with wrath toward the evil one, satan.
Romans 8:3, "For what the law COULD NOT DO, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, CONDEMNED SIN in the flesh". Notice that the sin was condemned, not the flesh. Sin does have an end, and who is the author of sin? Satan of course.

Answer 8

Nothing could ride over our lord, There is still a war going on between good and bad, We just have to believe and when that day comes GOD with ascend all the good people into heaven. That's all there is to it.

Answer 9

God was smart enough to come up with a plan for everyones salvation, but not all man is smart enough to follow the plan.

Answer 10

That'd be like a master architect building a shoddy building that he knows is going to end up burning down (by his own design), then creating only one exit, with many variations of maps made of copies of copies of directions given orally to some guy who died years ago posted on one wall. Then, that architect locked the world's population inside that death trap. That does not just sound illogical. It sounds sadistically, insanely, cruel.
