Thread: The Everloving God

This is actually the cool God...doesn't take shit from no one. You fuck with God he'll fuck you up ten fold! Now eat your curds or die!!!

People really miscontrue this whole "ever loving God thing." God is love but he is also just. If you read the OT you see that when he is dealing with the Israelites he is merciless to their enemies, at the same time though you see that he turns aside his anger towards them.
In exodus and numbers there are a handful of times where they just grimbled one to many times and God was ready to destroy them. Moses and Aaron pleaded before God for them and God turned aside his anger.
He has not changed. He is the same God. We are in a period of grace. God showed his great love for us by sending Jesus to die for us. We are now in a waiting period while the word is spread. If however you read the whole NT you will come to Revelation. Revelation is not a pretty picture and it is going to happen. If you compare the two books, the OT and the NT you will see that he is actually the same God.


By the way have you ever even read Genesis? Or are you pulling this shit off of a website?

God likes Abel&#39;s dead animals better than Cain&#39;s fruits and vegetables. Why? Well, no reason is given, but it probably has something to do with the amount of pain, blood, and gore involved. 4:3-5[/b]

here is a better look at that verse

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div>

Cain and Abel

1 Adam [1] lay with his wife Eve, and she became pregnant and gave birth to Cain. [2] She said, "With the help of the LORD I have brought forth [3] a man." 2 Later she gave birth to his brother Abel.
Now Abel kept flocks, and Cain worked the soil. 3 In the course of time Cain brought some of the fruits of the soil as an offering to the LORD . 4 But Abel brought fat portions from some of the firstborn of his flock. The LORD looked with favor on Abel and his offering, 5 but on Cain and his offering he did not look with favor. So Cain was very angry, and his face was downcast.
6 Then the LORD said to Cain, "Why are you angry? Why is your face downcast? 7 If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? But if you do not do what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires to have you, but you must master it."
8 Now Cain said to his brother Abel, "Let&#39;s go out to the field." [4] And while they were in the field, Cain attacked his brother Abel and killed him.[/b]

God didn&#39;t want fruit and vegies. Cain knew that going into it and decided against using his own animals. He used fruit instead. God did not ask for fruit so he did not accept it. Cain was then jealous that Abel had done the right thing and found God&#39;s favor, and he killed his brother for his own mistake.

I am not even going to grace the animal thing with a reply, read the bible and you will see what the animals were put here for.

Additionally, almost all of those quotes are in the Old Testament, when people were smited for being bad...

I believe that when Jesus died, God&#39;s wrath was lost.

I wouldn&#39;t say God&#39;s wrath was lost. God the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. If you wanted to put it into words you could say God&#39;s wrath has been put on hold. The events in revelation are coming.

Thats a good point dk. I wasn&#39;t thinking much at the time, but yeah thats pretty much how it is.

Yes. Its all true, the lack of any actual evidence rules out any other possibility.

Look Billy, if you want to learn about God, the bible isnt the place to be looking. More on this when I have time.

Yeah Billy let someone explain to you with human understanding a being who exists outside of time.

Dude what he is saying is that the bible is crap....don&#39;t let yourself be drawn into this.

Run Billy, it&#39;s a trap!

Where else are you suppose to learn about &#39;God&#39; other than from religious scriptures? I mean, it&#39;s not like you can see and talk to God.

DK is right. Fuck animals. They&#39;re here for us to exploit. You think the slaughtering of tons of animals is wrong! You&#39;re wrong. Every animal you slaughter brings a smile to God&#39;s face, because he gave us these animals to devour them. Those vegans are pissing God off big time...they take a moral stance, but I eat 2 steaks for every vegan out there.

Dude this is what I was talking about man. You are putting words in my mouth.............

Nah man, I&#39;m taking your side. I just don&#39;t understand why people think God should be a pussy. Why can&#39;t he crack skulls if people disobey him? I mean, supposing you created humans and they started doing shit you specifically told them not to do...wouldn&#39;t you want to kill them? And that&#39;s all God was doing! What the hell is wrong with that!? He made us, he has the right to do as he wishes...where the hell do people get off saying what&#39;s right or wrong!? He decides what&#39;s right or wrong...humans need to know their place...know their role so to speak. But God gets the last laugh....eternal damnation.
