God, in His wisdom, chose to deal with humanity in this way.



"How can God be in control when the world contains so much evil?"

"And moreover I saw under the sun the place of judgment..."

"Second, human nature naturally thinks that the way God handles things is unfair,..."

Quote:

Ecclesiastes 3:16-17 (16) And moreover I saw under the sun the place of judgment, that wickedness was there; and the place of righteousness, that iniquity was there. (17) I said in mine heart, God shall judge the righteous and the wicked: for there is a time there for every purpose and for every work. King James Version How can God be in control when the world contains so much evil? How can God be in control with the evil prospering in their sins and the righteous suffering in their obedience? Does that not seem backward from the way that we would think of God operating things? How should a Christian react to this? Certainly, Solomon was not the first to ask this question. As much as we might dislike having to deal with this, it is nonetheless a reality. In His wisdom, God chose to deal with humanity in this way, and perhaps most especially, to allow His own children to face these same circumstances. Solomon was comforted by two godly realities that we should also understand and use. First, he assures us that God will judge. The timing of His judgment is in God's capable hands. Therefore, we must remember that nobody among humanity will get away with the evil that he does. The wages of sin—death—is a reality (Romans 6:23). We cannot allow ourselves to forget that God is judging. It is a continuous process, and in many cases, we simply are not aware of present, unseen penalties that the evil person may already be paying. Second, human nature naturally thinks that the way God handles things is unfair, a judgment that is the work of the spirit of this world (Ephesians 2:2-3). However, God's perception of timing and judgment is a much broader and more specific picture regarding each person than we can see. We are not walking in others' shoes, nor are we aware of what God is planning for them to experience. Therefore, what we must know and properly utilize is the fact that, in a major way, other people are none of our business. That is God's concern, and He will take care of things in His time.

Many feel that;
This life is 'a female dog',    ....and then we die.  [i.e. that 'life is so unfair']

But what is always, always, always essentially true, is,     ...that each one of us, are free to choose,
how we respond to our own 'circumstances'.

And.....

I love God.

He is working out HIS plan.

And HE knows exactly what he is doing.

It is, a wonderful thing....

Matthew 13:26
But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.
27  So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares?
28  He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up?
29  But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them.
30  Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.


Psalms 118:19
Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will go into them, and I will praise the LORD:
20  This gate of the LORD, into which the righteous shall enter.
21  I will praise thee: for thou hast heard me, and art become my salvation.
22  The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner.
23  This is the LORD'S doing; it is marvellous in our eyes.

Do you honestly expect a cogent response to your curdled theological soup?

Love to see even a hint of evidence that gawd exists.

The intricacy and complexity of the human genome.

The existence of myriad galaxies and stars in the night sky.

The source, of our own self awareness.

The unfathomable 'natural' laws which 'surround' each one of us, and which act upon so many aspects of our everyday life.

....so many things which human beings seek understanding of, yet can only present simple suppositions, as we ponder these things around us, so far beyond our proper comprehension.

Maybe you believe my existence, and my self awareness, is not explainable ?

A chance circumstance ?

Yeah.    ....just like a winning Lottery ticket.


Dictionary;
supposition = = an assumption or hypothesis.

Incredibly incurious,

Psalms 9:10
And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.


Isaiah 26:9
With my soul have I desired thee in the night; yea, with my spirit within me will I seek thee early: for when thy judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness.

God is, yadda. He's just nothing like you think he is. Category difference, for want of a better term.  You can think only in material terms. God is in only non-material terms (trascendence).

God is a person only in the radically non-material way, if we can conceive that.  He is not an old bloke.

if God or a God does exist then its likely in a form we cant comprehend, mathematically the universe has 11 dimensions, if God exists in a fourth or further dimension we would not be able to have an understanding.

Agatha,

I don't understand   what   God 'is'.

To me, God is a spirit entity.  [to me the spirit realm is real, but i don't understand how or spatially, 'where' it exists.]

To me, God has [is capable of having] an 'intersectional' relationship with men and women.

And he does.

God, as an entity, has an ability to make himself known to us.

He is very real, and, no, he is not 'an old bloke'.



God is a spirit entity, and he has 'agents', angels, who act on his behalf.

There are also demons [spirit entities].    ....but for some reason, they [the disembodied ones] never bother me now.



If a person comes to LOVE God, through coming to understand His character [and through seeking to please Him], through reading scripture [God's WORD],
God's spirit will 'come' to him or her, to guide and to protect that person [to some extent].

And God's spirit, every day, will teach that person how to choose.

God is also able to 'convey'/direct his protection over us, as a consequence of how we choose.  !!


If you want to experience such encounters [such an influence] in your personal life, i would encourage anyone, to read the Book of Psalms and the Book of Proverbs.   [i prefer the KJV]
....in doing this, you are looking to see, if the words which you are reading [if the 'spirit' in those words] appeal to your own psyche.

If you HATE lawlessness, and if you LOVE the righteousness of God, the spirit of God will begin to reveal Himself to you ['intersectionally'].


.


Yadda said somewhere.....

Quote:

Reading scripture is a form of spiritual invocation [i believe]. And imo, the words and thoughts expressed within scripture, express [to me] the mind of our God. And, reading those words and thoughts, exposes me to that spirit, which i [choose, and] want to be influenced by. i.e. The spirit of God. It is that simple.

John 14:18
I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.
19  Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also.
20  At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.
21  He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
22  Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world?
23  Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.


Revelation 3:19
As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.
20  Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.

Yadda talks about God endlessly, barely puts his morals into practice.

Psalms 1:1
Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
2  But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.
3  And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
4  The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.
5  Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
6  For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

Blessed is who ?

           Liars ?

           Oath breakers ?

           Covenant breakers ?

No.


Psalms 28:3
Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, which speak peace to their neighbours, but mischief is in their hearts.
4  Give them according to their deeds, and according to the wickedness of their endeavours: give them after the work of their hands; render to them their desert.


Psalms 15:1
LORD, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill?
2  He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart.
3  He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour.
4  In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but he honoureth them that fear the LORD. He that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not.
5  He that putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh reward against the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never be moved.

Psalms 83:1
Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God.
2  For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head.
3  They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones.
4  They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.
5  For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee:
6  The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes;
7  Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre;

Man’s Christian Love For Humanity Shattered By Trip To The Airport

CHICAGO, IL — The world around a local man seemed to grow even colder and dimmer as he expressed feeling that his Christian love for humanity had been shattered after he took a trip to the airport.

Traveler Ryan Kanter said he felt good about the world and mankind in general just prior to leaving the house for his trip to Florida. Upon arriving at O'Hare Airport, every shred of hope he had felt vanished within moments, leaving him despondent about the state of human society.

"May God's wrath rain down upon every one of you," Kanter was heard muttering as he made his way through the terminal. "What a wretched world this is. Look at the human refuse littered around me. Where am I? How have we fallen so far? We used to be a real country. Dear Lord, have mercy upon us. Oh, sweet Moses, here's the TSA checkpoint."

Kanter then proceeded to endure the horrifying ordeal of airport security. "I… I can't describe the things that I saw there," he later recounted. "Bodies stacked on top of bodies. Diseases. Violence. Exposed toes everywhere. Why would a loving God allow things like this to exist? Why? WHY?!"

Witnesses reported last seeing Kanter visibly seething with hatred toward all of mankind after finding his place in a middle seat between two morbidly obese passengers.

KJV
"When wisdom entereth into thine heart, and knowledge is pleasant unto thy soul;
Discretion shall preserve thee, understanding shall keep thee:
To deliver thee from the way of the evil man, from the man that speaketh froward things;
Who leave the paths of uprightness, to walk in the ways of darkness;
Who rejoice to do evil, and delight in the frowardness of the wicked"


KJV
"There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death."

I will delight myself in thy statutes: I will not forget thy word."

🪡 Why tear down someone’s faith in God? If Christianity isn’t for you, that’s your choice, jog on.

Free Will, God gave us free will to choose our own path. Mocking faith might feel bold now, but choices echo in eternity. 

Society’s Decline, Look around—crime, division, and despair grow as we drift from Christian values. Coincidence? The correlation is hard to ignore. 

Faith Under Fire: During COVID, churches were closed while bars and Mosques stayed open, Politicians flouted their own rules, signalling faith was “non-essential.” Yet Christians kept believing, but quietly. 

Proof is Everywhere: Skeptics want evidence? You can’t measure love, yet it’s real. See the beauty of creation, the lives changed by faith. Open your eyes. 

God is Close: You don’t need a church to find God—He’s in you, he’s in everyone. Talk to Him anytime, anywhere. 

HUNTSVILLE, AL — Local man Brad Sharp had his faith in God shaken to its core after his prayer for a real, functioning lightsaber went unanswered.

"How could a good, loving, all-powerful God not give me a lightsaber?" sighed Sharp, staring at the sky. "Where are you, God? Are you even listening?"

According to sources, Sharp prayed for God to grant him a lightsaber not once, but three times. Yet, Sharp was met with nothing but silence from the Lord, prompting something of an existential crisis.

"It's tough to reconcile belief in an omnipotent, beneficent God with not getting a lightsaber," said Sharp's friend Kevin Darneau. "Especially if you specifically asked for one. He's taking it pretty hard, and it's causing him to question a lot of his beliefs. He really wanted that lightsaber."

At publishing time, Sharp's faith in God had again been tested as he failed to bench press five hundred pounds despite wearing a Philippians 4:13 bracelet.

I'm still waiting for my Malvern Star bicycle from Santa from way back in the early 70's.

Advice to all men, from God's Word......

CHOOSE,     .....DEATH, OR LIFE.

Matthew 19:17
[Jesus said].....if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.
18  He saith unto him, Which?
Jesus said,
Thou shalt do no murder,
Thou shalt not commit adultery,
Thou shalt not steal,
Thou shalt not bear false witness,
19  Honour thy father and thy mother: and,
Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.


John 14:15
[Jesus said].....If ye love me, keep my commandments.


EVEN MORE......

KJV
"....all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them:
for this is the law and the prophets."


AND.....
"....the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God:
for they are foolishness unto him:"

------ >

IN THIS FOLLOWING VERSE, GOD COMPLAINS,
THAT NO ONE WILL 'HEAR' THE WARNINGS......
HE GIVES TO MEN.

GOD COMPLAINS, THAT MEN  >> HAVE NO 'DELIGHT', <<  IN HIS CHASTENING.

KJV
"To whom shall I speak, and give warning, that they may hear?
behold, their ear is uncircumcised, and they cannot hearken:
behold, the word of the LORD is unto them a reproach;
they have no delight in it."

Get hold of a KJV bible.

How sweet are thy words unto my taste! yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth!
104  Through thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every false way.
105  Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.

As Judaism has reversed in on itself, so will Mohommedism.
With this, Christianity is crumbling from Europe back to the Middle-East like a Shard back to its Dark Crystal where all three will finally become no more as they cancel each other out.

'Life' is real.

Individual self awareness [and residing within our universe], is real.

Evil.......and good [virtue], are real,   ....and 'live' in the hearts of men.

AND CONTRAWISE.....
Jesus makes it clear to all men,
how they are able to embrace death,   .....if that is their choice.

Spit,   ....in God's face.

Not drivel. FACT.
Your Christianity will come to an end and along with the other two, will end up on a museum shelf as relics. No longer an influence of belief and mass followings.

The flaw in why they fail is because, for starters, they are feminine religions that carry the Fall of the male (into Beta) to his effort to Rise again. Three Monotheisms that are a right of passage from Youth, through Adulthood, to Old Age.
Of course, 99% of all Moslems, Christians and Jews fail to comprehend this because they entrap themselves in their one facet of the three, rather than perceive the three as a whole.
Thus, Moslem, Christian & Jew - in fear of converting in conjunction  with the rite of passage between all three as they age. Never fully experience it's true gift. To be as young as a Jew, as adult as a Christian and as old as a Moslem.
The fear of conversion between the three is what causes the violence and failure. Like a boy trapped in boyhood forever, etc.
The failure to live the full process is why people of those three Monotheisms are considered 'madness' and mentally stupid.

That's the truth and the irony of it all. Your failure to transcend through each of them during your life, because you 'believe' with absolutism, in sticking to just one. Such over-devotion (based on the fear of change) is what robs you and your life of the true experience that it offers and the rewards that come with it.

The moment you embraced the path of the fallen man (who served the superior female), you could only dream of eating from the tree of life that us superior men do, because you thought you were smart in eating from the tree of knowledge, failing to be GODS LIKE US AND LIVE FOREVER. Which we do in reality and it's a reality that you fallen Jews, Christians & Moslems can only dream about as a heaven, paradise, etc.
This is why you secular monitheists die numerously in violent ways for your fixed unchanging secular beliefs throughout history. A cause to die for your imprisoning singular faiths, while 'we' don't - such is the real heaven and paradise. We ride your failure, like a surfer on a wave, no matter how gnarly it gets.

Me?
Well I've transitioned between two already. The Religion of Water (Australia) and the Religion of Fire (Zoroastrianism) with now soon a transcendence into the Religion of Earth (S.America) to finally the Religion of Air (N.America... place of Aviation).
My reward? Well, it seems to provide me with an understanding and awareness of the big picture, more than you Yadda - locked in your 'christianity ONLY' little world.
How's it feel to live a life of unchanging? Do you feel like a primitive Abo that never changed over 40,000 years?
I know more about Religion than you, my primitive friend... locked in that prison cell of just one monotheism only with dedicated absolutism... like a man who never really understood his childhood (Judaism) or will do so in his old age (Mohommedism).

Despite all your (Moslem, Christian, Jewish) rage, you are still only rats caught in a cage.

Drivel on that primitive beta man.  ;)

Don't get me wrong my friend Yadda. I do like you.
But you pour your entire Soul and perception of reality into just one Book. It's just a book and a book that in conjunction with two other books can only be 'fully' understood.
You are like Sauron who poured his life's essence into one Ring.
You pour yours into just one book... and it's not even of your own personal creation. I say this as a writer myself.

Ever see those people who wrap their entire lives and souls around other objects? Be they a music band or record, a stone or wooden totem, an animal (to be like them like Norse Wolf berserkers), in a pyramid, a car, etc. It's just a book Yadda and I can tell you, it doesn't even present you with the full story.

The insanity of human history under the influence of those three Monotheisms has been nothing short of disgraceful. All three have been responsible for more death, than anything else in the world.
Your God is Death.

Gaea (Fire, Earth, Water, Air) is LIFE immortal.

"Thus, Moslem, Christian & Jew - in fear of converting......

The fear of conversion between the three is what causes the violence and failure.

Like a boy trapped in boyhood forever, etc."

"Such over-devotion (based on the fear of change) is what robs you and your life of the true experience that it offers and the rewards that come with it."

"Your God is Death."

"Gaea (Fire, Earth, Water, Air) is LIFE immortal."



There is no eternal Gaea.

There is, what is, truth,   ....and there is NOT, what is falsehood.

There is light,   ......and there is darkness.

There is within us [until the 1st death].....choice.

Deuteronomy 8:2
And thou shalt remember all the way which the LORD thy God led thee these forty years
in the wilderness,
to humble thee,
and to prove thee,
to know what was in thine heart,
whether thou wouldest keep his commandments, or no.


Isaiah 5:20
Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil;
that put darkness for light, and light for darkness;
that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!


Deuteronomy 30:19
I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death,
blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:
20  That thou mayest love the LORD thy God, and that thou mayest obey his voice,
and that thou mayest cleave unto him:
for he is thy life, and the length of thy days: that thou mayest dwell in the land which the LORD sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.


Malachi 3:15
And now we call the proud happy;
yea, they that work wickedness are set up;
yea, they that tempt God are even delivered.
16  Then they that feared the LORD spake often one to another: and the LORD hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon his name.
17  And they shall be mine, saith the LORD of hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son that serveth him.
18  Then shall ye return, and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serveth God and him that serveth him not.



Redemption.
......for those who turn.
......for those who seek Him.   .....by their own choosing.

Surely you're not just a mindless parroting photocopier machine too scared to test his own faith within himself to show that he fully understands the bible and can transform scripture in his own thoughts and writing on its behalf?
C'mon Yadda. Give it a go.

Show me how Christian you really are? Are you a player on the field, or just a fan in the grandstand?

Are you a Protestant follower in it for the money like an Amway scheme or a Clergy creating Divorce to root more than one woman?
Are you a Catholic follower with more children than you can feed, or a Clergy in it for the gold and money?
Are you an Orthodox follower, few and far between without money and sex or a Clergy who gets the best of both?
Or are you a Pagan follower of all that created Monotheism with money and hippy sex or the Burning Man holy who gets none?
...all four points of the Cross: there is no escape.

...just like the four points of Monotheism: The Jew, the Moslem, the Christian and their Pagan creator.

;)

Come now Yadda, what say you?
