Ok, so we screwed up. We'll it was going to happen so what's the point of this whole cosmic experiment. Something to do with a forbidden fruit whatever that means. So one dude takes a bite out of an apple and here we sit with a planet of billions that are raping the planet. Then it'll end like a game of chess and I guess God will start a new game.
Perhaps this isn't the first time that He had to start over. Maybe Man screws it up every time. At least this time he gave us a way to not suffer the torment that He tells us about in Revelation. Want to spend eternity in Heaven or in Hell? Accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior. It's simple, but it's hard for most to do because the world has let Satan lead them instead of Jesus.
Well I suppose we all need something in life, some are just more attainable than others
So, what are you waiting for? Attain Jesus! It's a heart issue not a head issue. The hardest road traveled is the distance from your head to your heart!!
What a load of rubbish,if god is so good and special why does he allow such worldwide suffering,as for his message it was written by a man not god.
"We" chose "To Suffer" from the very beginning. God told us "Don't do that", But we did it any way, even though he told us that we would suffer if we did it. We're like a bunch of spoiled little Brats. "Don't tell ME what I can and cannot do!!!!!" If we would have just listened. I fear it's too late now, unless we as Christians set the world on fire for Jesus. As long as there are unbelievers in the world, my job is not finished. The Bible IS the infallible Word Of God. 2 timothy 3-16, all scripture is given by "Inspiration" of God. He told Man what to write.
I have attended many churches, from conservative baptist to evangelical, where it has been preached that without hearing and placing faith in the name of Jesus, no one will gain eternal salvation. Please give me the book(s) and verse(s) that show that everyone will hear. I will not be drawn into a personal discussion of my motives to deflect the subject.
Come now, be very careful where you tread, your crutch is full of woodworm.
I Don't walk with a crutch. I walk with Jesus. Before I started walking with him, I DID have a crutch full of woodworms, but I no longer need it. All I need is Jesus.
If a God created the whole universe he really screwed up in this neighborhood. :roll:
No, We screwed up His neighborhood. It started out as the Garden of Eden, then man and woman said that they could do it better. Now look where we are. Not only did we not want His Garden of Eden, Which by the way "Was Perfect", now we say as a society that we don't want God in Anything that we do. Not in schools, not in government, not in our homes, not in our neighborhoods, Not in Anything. God said "OK!?? But I still love you so much that I'm giving you a way to make it right with me again". Want to know what that is? Psssst, Come closer - His name is JESUS. Want to know more? Read, and Most of all, UNDERSTAND the BIBLE. Your own self centered beliefs aren't enough to get you into Heaven!! I Am Praying for All you Non-Believers. We as Believers try to tell you about Gods' Love and all you do is turn our words around to mean what you want them to say. Does Not Satan do exactly the same thing? The Bible say that as Christians will be persecuted! Is that not what is happening here? I Feel Persecuted!!!! For being a Christian.!! I consider it all joy to be Persecuted for the Name of Jesus. I Am Happy to be a Christian!!!! Romans 8;38,39. (Please look it up) God Loves you whether You believe in Him or not!!!
The only writing that GOD is known to have written with his own hand, are the 15 commandments, and Mel Brooks dropped a whole tablet of them and lost 5. Everything else we have regarding the BIBLE, was written and edited numerous times over the course of human history by religious leaders and with differing slant injected or social control dictated by the translator. Before the written word, it was passed down as oral history.
We can't even get a bill to go from the Senate to the Congress without enormous modifications and riders and possible rejection. And then there's the old saying "History is written be the triumphant" so who's to say what is truth or fiction?
Throughout the course of history, everything that was beyond the immediate control of humans, has always been assumed to be controlled by a GOD or numerous GODS and omnipotent beings until science has given us the knowledge to comprehend it.

Check It Out Folks! - Romans 1;18-23---- You Are Without excuse! OH, and check out 2 Timothy 3;16. "All scripture is given by "Inspiration" of God". It does not say that God wrote it, it says that he told man what to write.
