Awesome... now you understand how pig-ignorant it is to say "That would make God unjust" ... you won't be saying that.God is totally consistent, His Love is perfect, and everything fits perfectly together. It is all very simple, if you do not come up with some "doctrine", which contradicts who God is. There is nothing to "question" about God so that only leaves questioning the doctrine.
The reason we follow God and not satan is because weve been shown that He’s good, just, merciful, etc. Those qualities have meaning.Great than you agree with the OP... and will refrain yourself in future from saying the indefensibly vacuous "That would make God unjust"
.
to say that is to say: what makes God to look unjust has to be wrong, since God is not unjust, by the Bible's explanation of unjust.Awesome... now you understand how pig-ignorant it is to say "That would make God unjust" ... you won't be saying that.

Are you still capable of indefensibly vacuous statements?The reason we follow God and not satan is because weve been shown that He’s good, just, merciful, etc. Those qualities have meaning.
So you no longer wish to make such pig-ignorant statements?to say that is to say: what makes God to look unjust has to be wrong, since God is not unjust, by the Bible's explanation of unjust.
No, but you seem to be. God revealed what justice/righteousness is with the old covenant, then came down here and showed us personally what righteousness is, by who He is. So why shouldn't we know what injustice looks like to Him.Are you still capable of indefensibly vacuous statements?
You seem to have left out the option in which I was speaking. So the options should be these.The scripture encourages our critical examination of ourselves.
Does it encourage the critical examination go God Himself?
The reason I would avoid saying: "that would make God unjust" is because the problem is with what "That" is standing in for. Make the statement and then address the issues with the statement and do not jump to the conclusion: "That would make God unjust". Do you have a statement like that you are trying to make?So you no longer wish to make such pig-ignorant statements?

I never think God could be unjust... I guess that makes me a little different.The reason I would avoid saying: "that would make God unjust" is because the problem is with what "That" is standing in for.

I find it ludicrous for you to think you have the capacity to judge God...No, but you seem to be. God revealed what justice/righteousness is with the old covenant, then came down here and showed us personally what righteousness is, by who He is. So why shouldn't we know what injustice looks like to Him.
They definitely have trouble with the second part of the 3rd option.You seem to have left out the option in which I was speaking. So the options should be these.
1. The Scripture encourages our evaluation of ourselves by measuring ourselves against the word of God (the Holy Scripture).
2. The Scripture encourages our evaluation of teachers and prophets by measuring their claims against the word of God (the Holy Scripture).
3. The Scripture teaches that God is above reproach. Man is in no position to judge God or His wisdom and actions.
We have no right to judge Him, and it would do no good anyway, but He gives us the capacity to know what justice is. So if He's acting outside of that then He's already judged Himself.I find it ludicrous for you to think you have the capacity to judge God...

Do you do that by redefining "Just" away from the Biblical meaning we all agree on?I never think God could be unjust... I guess that makes me a little different.

First you say we have no right to judge Him.We have no right to judge Him, and it would do no good anyway, but He gives us the capacity to know what justice is. So if He's acting outside of that then He's already judged Himself.
Not at all... rather realising that God is a being who is perfect in all dimensions and degrees.Do you do that by redefining "Just" away from the Biblical meaning we all agree on?
That wasn’t phrased well. I mean we have the freedom to judge Him but it does no good, He’s God, we’re not. We actually have the duty to judge right from wrong though, so wrong actions should, indeed, cause us to be wary, to question.First you say we have no right to judge Him.
Than you say... He has left us with a mechanism whereby we can judge Him... "but He gives us the capacity to know what justice is... So if He's acting outside of that then He's already judged Himself"
Would you agree that because we have no right to judge Him, we ought not even think to judge Him?
.
If your doctrine is unjust than it is not from God.Not at all... rather realising that God is a being who is perfect in all dimensions and degrees.
Such a being... is incapable of imperfection.
Therefore to even think it provable that God could act unjustly, is a categoric error.
