If God is all the bible says he "is," why did he keep chosing murderers to be his prophets or kings on

Question

earth?

Answer 1

That is the point. He showed man as he really was.A no good sinner,thief, robber and murderer. Any good fairytale would make man out to be the "GoodGuy" but God doesn't lie.David murdered for sex and to save his reputation.Paul had people arrested and put to death.Abraham was a liar and adulterer....on and on. But what these guys had in common was the realized their faults and their dependency on God to straighten up their lives and grew(It took Jacob getting his hip knocked out of socket by the pre-incarnate Jesus to know this)to allow God to guide their lives. None of these guys were unpunished just read about David's family and the split in Abraham's etc.That is what God wants. He wants REAL MEN not a bunch of "namby pamby" smiling ,1/2 gay wimps.
I would have to say everyone of those guys ,with the exception of Jesus (being sinless) and Daniel as well as Joseph(Jacobs son) were a bunch of rough tough sinning guys who learned to reign in their "Spirit" for God.Like tamed wild horses,they were still strong and full of energy just under control.

Answer 2

God chooses who He wants, and who He doesn't want. Someone who is not a murderer is still a sinner. So the 'elect' are elected by God.

6 just as David also describes the blessedness of the man to whom God imputes righteousness apart from works:
7 “ Blessed are those whose lawless deeds are forgiven,
And whose sins are covered;
8 Blessed is the man to whom the LORD shall not impute sin.”
( Romans 4 )

And by saying so, I just admitted that God does not have love for everyone, neither are all people God's children, as so many mistakenly believe.

Answer 3

God would not supply us unfastened will. If element are already destined to happen, as an occasion predictions of doom interior the destiny in accordance the bible.. the place is the unfastened will? there is none,.. additionally what on the topic of the mentally unwell? What does god say approximately that? technological expertise has shown that without a wholesome functioning techniques, one isn't waiting to make clean and judgment of right and incorrect judgements? because of the fact that God is acquainted with all and created all, he knows of those human beings born with the psychological stressful situations to think of for themselves. faith is an exceedingly clever thank you to regulate the loads of human beings, faith is artificial. The very people who wrote the bible have not got faith their very own lies.

Answer 4

Why try to make one sin greater than another? All people are sinners(have broken God's Laws). So all those chosen to be be prophets and kings were sinners....

with One exception. And so only He can be our eternal prophet, king and savior. The Bible is ALL about Him as the only exception.

Answer 5

Due to original sin, everyone on earth at the time was a hopelessly corrupt sinner.

God simply made the best use of what he had to work with.

All life is sacred. What has given you the right to murder a fly or an ant, or any other number of living creations?

Answer 8
