If God created, can he also destroy?

Question

I believe he can

Answer 1

He will destroy. Read the book of Revelation. When God returns this earth will be destroyed and will be replaced by a new heaven and new earth.

Answer 2

If God can do both then God can also be destroyed. God could also not follow written word in Bible and could decide it would be allright for Heaven and Hell to be Democracies. If destroyed it could be in battle over civil rights if God were where as written in Bible as a vengefull jealous God. If the people who campaigned in Civil Rights Movement came to Heaven and found this to be so would they not challenge this view of God. If this was so then their work would not be done. They would campaign for Civil Rights in both Heaven and Hell. They would say Civil Rights for all extend into The After Life and that what was written then when there were little or none does not apply now so should be changed. If God were not amenable Armageddon would happen right then. Civil Rights Types would require allies. So in end a combination of Raagnarok and Armageddon . Newly Ressurected Norse Gods would destroy God and themselves in a battle in a dead Solar System. It could also be a magic box containing powers of God,Gods would determine through votes which Gods Godesses were to be in control .

Answer 3

Yes he could. If you know some of the Bible Stories like Noah's Ark.....God Sent a flood to destroy the evil city. He promised though that he wouldn't do that again. But to answer your question, God is all powerful and can destroy what he made from the start.

Answer 4

I would revise the word “destroy” to something else. That is negative, and God is nothing but a positive force. Plus, there is probably a more descriptive word to describe the opposite of what he has created.

Theology tells us that God upholds all things material, the physical universe, if so then should God retire as the present upholder of all creation, there would occur immediately a universal collapse. Except for God, there would be no such thing as reality.

Did this answer your question?

Or, are you thinking in more on the lines of nature and its destructive forces or other related events - presuming that God commands the elements at his very whims or having people dangle from his fingers like puppets - one wrong move, you’re TOAST. If that is what you are asking then, yes he could, but he never does. That’s because if we are destined to know him and as we begin this journey to understand him, we find that this isn’t his nature and how he operates.

Obviously there are stories speaking of God’s anger and of his lashing out to the peoples, but these are merely stories of men who have judged to place blame of such devastations on to God or stories of men who claim that such things happen because of God’s very will. The outcome of the stories may be true but the cause of them is merely fiction.

Answer 5

Yes he can. Some faiths believe that God will destroy the world in the second coming.

Answer 6

It is written in the Bible (Galatians 6:7): "Be not deceived; God is not mocked:for whatsoever a man soweth,
that shall he also reap.
Here are some men and women
who mocked God :

John Lennon (Singer): Some years before, during his interview with an
American Magazine, he said:
"Christianity will end, it will disappear.
I do not have to argue about that. I am certain. Jesus was ok, but his subjects were too simple, Today we are more famous than Him" (1966).
Lennon, after saying that the Beatles were more famous than Jesus Christ, was shot six times.

Tancredo Neves (President of Brazil ):During the Presidential campaign, he said if he
got 500,000 votes from his party, not even God would remove him from Presidency.
Sure he got the votes, but he got sick a day before being made President, then he died.

Cazuza (Bi-sexual Brazilian composer, singer and poet):During A show in Canecio ( Rio de Janeiro ),while smoking his cigarette, he puffed out some
smoke into the air and said: "God, that's for you."

The man who built the Titanic

The result: I think you all know what happened to the Titanic .

Marilyn Monroe (Actress)She was visited by Billy Graham during apresentation of a show.

Bon Scott (Singer)
The ex-vocalist of the AC/DC. On one of his 1979 songs he sang:
"Don't stop me, I'm going down all the way, down the highway to hell". On the 19th of February 1980, Bon Scott was

Campinas (IN 2005) In Campinas , Brazil a group of friends, drunk, went to pick up a friend.....The mother accompanied her to the car and was so worried about the drunkenness of her friends and she said to the daughter holding her hand,
who was already seated in the car:

Hours later, news came by that they had been involved in a fatal accident, everyone had died,
the car could not be recognized what type of car it had been, but surprisingly, the trunk was intact.
The police said there was no way the trunk could have remained intact. To

Christine Hewitt (Jamaican Journalist and entertainer) said the Bible
(Word of God) was the worst book ever written.

Answer 7

Of course he can. Have you ever read the story of Noah and the Ark? God was angry because everyone but Noah and his family were doing exactly the opposite of what he wanted them to do. So he told Noah to build an ark and take two of every kind of animal on it. Then he flooded the entire Earth and destroyed everything but the Ark. That would be my number example.

Answer 8

yes. God is all powerfull and all present. However I do not feel that he has the need to destroy, for nothing is evr truly destroyed. Only transformed. Everything is made of energy, and energy can neither be created or destroyd. It ca however be reformed.

Answer 9

Of course. If he could only create, he would continue to create and create and create--everything must be destroyed at some point except heaven and hell

Answer 10

Amo 3:6 Is a trumpet blown in a city, and the people are not afraid? Does disaster come to a city, unless the LORD has done it?
