Up to this point we are in agreement. But then you start on your "bad" God message.
But why create the people that would sin in the first place?
God created Adam and Eve. Then he told them to be fruitful and multiply. God created...we procreate. God is not up in Heaven churning out people to torment.
This implies some people are born to be tormented for eternity and some are created for heaven.
Have you ever watched a movie more than once? Before you even put it in you know how it will end. So now⦠Can I blame you for the sad ending? Time is not one dimensional to God as it is to us. He can see it all at a single glance. It is all out there. He can see our actions before we take them. He knows who will come when called and who will not. He does not call the ones he knows will not come.
This implies some people are born to be tormented for eternity and some are created for heaven.
God does not write the story of your life. He knows all and he interacts with us and our world... but much of what you are... is by your own free will. I am so tried of people denying God, living a life of evil and sin, then complaining because God is just.
But God loves everyone.
So, why let some self-torment?
God does love everyone! He would not turn away any of his children. But he has given us free will. So we must choose to be with God.
For what is love... if it is forced?
Luke 11:9 "So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 10For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.
11"Which of you fathers, if your son asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead? 12Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion? 13If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!"
