Didn't Jesus teach forgiveness and then God is unforgiving to people for simply not creaming his ego?

your judging God? the pot is judging the potter?

I believe that is what God gave us free will for, isn't it?
|
|
By:
yes and you are using your free will to tell god you can do better without him.
he's gonna respect that choice. |

If he's going to destroy earth this year, while humans would, assuming there's no nuclear war, need at least another 100 or so years to completely wreck and destroy the planet, then we humans would do better than him.

Just for some cheap giggles of his.

Killing billions of innocent people in the process.

and even if he isn't directly responsible - that'd be as clear-cut a case of failure to assist people in danger as you'll ever find in a court. God will make himself incredibly guilty.

you really know your bible - not.
rapture of the church. anti christ reveals himself 3.5 years rule by satan and anti christ, after they CONFIRM a covenant. Satan executes God's tribulation saints. Kills and does what he wants in full control of his powers for two thousand years this is his time to shine. The greatest Angel is full flourish. jesus returns to clean house - wipes the earth clean of evil. Sets up a throne in Israel and rules for 1000 years over ? final judgment at year 7000. the earth has done it's job - the hard lesson has been learned by some souls. Those souls live with God for eternity in the new heaven and new earth. In higher dimensions. |

Why will the almighty God just be watching Satan's year long rule of terror, failing to properly assist if not for his own giggles and bloodlust?

Bible is just some man made scripture anyway. Don't put too much faith, don't be too pedantic about it.

I can understand Satan and Antichrist coming on a Sunday to catch God off guard while he's golfing, but by Monday noon at a very latest he should've kicked their arse. Not watch with popcorn for years to eventually send his son down again.

let me explain - Adam and Eve ate from the tree of - knowledge of Good and evil.
God let them do this as Mankind would have ended it's growth right then and there. the creation would be complete. by eating of the tree we now know were it all leads. sin leads to corruption and death. when we accept Jesus' sacrifice on the tree of life. we accept Jesus(yeshua, no j in hebrew) and grace into our souls. we are Christ's body. No one will pick sin again - the lesson is learned. some souls want to continue in their sinful ways. they are running from God. they are proud of their iniquities - they damn themselves with free will. God accepts their choice. but he can't allow immortal evil souls to roam free. they will be cast into outer darkness. You've chosen self employment. or you ignore the creator all your life. you are aware of the bible and you resort to legalism to justify your existence, when it was God that brought you forth. you prosecute God with the morals he instilled into humanity? the law started with Moses. God is not a voyeur - he is the father who sees evil being committed. he cannot intercede until his promise to Adam is over. at the end of 6000 years. He gave man full authority on Earth. Adam gave his authority to Satan. Only the church is restricting Satan. without the church, Roman brutality would be the norm. The church has the holy spirit and it restrains the full powers of Satan. The church is all believers in Christ. Satan has fielded anti christs before - Napoleon, Hitler. Dictators that try to take over the world. They've been fought back over the last two thousand years. But the next guy will succeed. He will rule all mankind. Until the clock says 6000. Then every little AC will be wiped away and God addresses the victims of those killed all through history by murderers and criminals. Will Sir Jimmy Saville get away with what he did? |

I have to say I've always been a huge fan of Lilith. Why does the first woman created by God play such a small role in Christianity?

Is it because being formed from Adam's rib is a much better justification of patriarchy than being formed on equal grounds from the same earth.

he's a bugger that Satan. If only we could trust our animalistic instincts, and not fall foul of him, we'd probably be fine.

66 books of the bible - 40 authors? a prophet is one appointed by God Himself to be His messenger and scribe. Moses wrote Genesis. Yet all books are linked and cross reference themselves.
The Holy Spirit is the helper, he reminded the apostles of everything that Jesus did. He is the author. He is part of the godhead, the trinity. The Coming of the Holy Spirit When the day of Pentecost arrived, they were all together in one place. And suddenly there came from heaven a sound like a mighty rushing wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. And divided tongues as of fire appeared to them and rested on each one of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit gave them utterance. Now there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews, devout men from every nation under heaven. And at this sound the multitude came together, and they were bewildered, because each one was hearing them speak in his own language. And they were amazed and astonished, saying, “Are not all these who are speaking Galileans? And how is it that we hear, each of us in his own native language? Parthians and Medes and Elamites and residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya belonging to Cyrene, and visitors from Rome, both Jews and proselytes, Cretans and Arabians—we hear them telling in our own tongues the mighty works of God.” And all were amazed and perplexed, saying to one another, “What does this mean?” But others mocking said, “They are filled with new wine.” Peter's Sermon at Pentecost But Peter, standing with the eleven, lifted up his voice and addressed them: “Men of Judea and all who dwell in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and give ear to my words. For these people are not drunk, as you suppose, since it is only the third hour of the day. But this is what was uttered through the prophet Joel: “‘And in the last days it shall be, God declares,that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh,and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams;even on my male servants and female servants in those days I will pour out my Spirit, and they shall prophesy. And I will show wonders in the heavens above and signs on the earth below, blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke; the sun shall be turned to darkness and the moon to blood,before the day of the Lord comes, the great and magnificent day. And it shall come to pass that everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.’ the Holy spirit is in the church members now, he is restraining satan on earth, he is God. Satan can only push others to do his bidding, he can't function at full power with God in the world. So the holy spirit has to leave. That's why the rapture is coming first. Christians go, holy spirit goes. Satan gets his way fully - he's the catalyst. those left will have to be hell bent - refining Gold by turning up the heat. |

the rib is the only bone in the body that regenerates and fully reforms if excised by a surgeon. they can take a rib out use it in grafts. It regrows.
Coincidence? yeah another one. |

Adam's blood is spilled in the soil to get him a bride?
Jesus's blood falls from a spear wound to his side by a roman spear. his blood saves sinners and we the christians are the 'bride of Christ'. both actions produce a bride. |

Wait, so if we engage in coitus with people that are not Jesus Christ it is adultery?

"Moses wrote Genesis". really I suppose the biblical scholars say that Moses was not really the author of the Torah, (which morphed into the Old Testament) are wrong but you of course are right.
Zorro you're increasingly looking like the Dad attending his sons passing out parade who shouts LOOK.... they're all out of step except my Johnny. |

Moses wrote the five books of the Tanakh.
The Book of Genesis is the first book of the Hebrew Bible (the Tanakh) and the Christian Old .Tradition credits Moses as the author of Genesis, as well as Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and most of Deuteronomy,(wiki) |

i was going on my memory, looks like it did not fail me in this instance. but if i am wrong in one thing it does not negate every thing i may say it simply means i'm a fool who has mis remembered or picked up a wrong fact. i'm willing to concede i'm a sinner and a fool all day long.

there is other sources - wiki is accepted by most people as a reasonable source.
publically edited. http://creation.com/did-moses-really-write-genesis The first five books of the Bible (a.k.a., Torah Pentateuch), are called the books of Moses because he was the writer. http://www.truthnet.org/Bible-Origins/5_Old-Testament-Books/ |

the schmitah cycle of seven years - used by stocks and shares companies?
sept 1917 to sept 1918 - The Balfour Declaration, letter sent 2 Nov 1917 to Rothschild. 1924 to 25 - Jews return to Palestine, FOURTH ALIYAH (Eretz Israel). 1931 to 32 - Jews return to Palestine, FIFTH ALIYAH (Eretz Israel). 1938 to 39 - ooo - start of war, six million Jews killed. 1945 to 46 - end of war in europe and asia. 1952 to 53 - 10 Sept. Reparations Agreement between Israel and West Germany is signed. 1959 to 60 - Jews leave Cuba. Heuss is the first German pres'to visit Israel. 1966 to 67 - six day war - Jerusalem lost by Arabs, was not part of Israel you twits? 1967 jubilee year......... 1973 to 74 - Yom kippur war - couldn't they have waited to 1976? why seven years? 1980 to 81 - Russia starts to expel Jews - 1.6 million 1987 to 88 - stock market crash - 250,000 Jewish march in washington. 1994 to 95 - the oslo accords come into affect - jews/palestine. 2001 to 2002 - sept 11? twin towers and war in the middle east. 2008 to 2009 - financial crash and war progresses to Arab Spring. 2015 to 2016 - the San Hedrin is reconstituted. moon signs galore. 2017 jubilee year...... This is so typical of these sort of theories. Criteria as vague as possible. The Suez War of 1956 was way more significant in Israeli history than most of the things listed but it doesn't fit the mystical 7 year cycle so is left out and instead we have 'Heuss is the first German pres'to visit Israel.' If you are gonna pick the visit of a political figure about as important as the lord mayor of London then you can pick anything at all. |

explain why they attacked israel in september 1973? on yom kippur. why seven years? why not 6 or 8?
the twin towers? in september ? world war 2 bracketed. the year triggers a blessing or a curse, based on their group behaviour as a nation. this is surface history i scraped together myself - Jonathan Cahn wrote about it in a book. I've never read it - but It confirmed my own researches that I noticed when i looked at 2011 and 2008. the jewish religious year begins usually in September. it's infamous in that region - the black september group? |

The world starts to come to an end, on August 21st 2017
and the death of 75% of all life on earth, and zorro is taken up and away That's 6000 years since god created the world , I am not sure why or how they know that ? It has to be on a full feast day and end on a feast day, no I don't know what that is either, or even why it should matter? So that is why it has to be August 2017, oh and the 21st no, no, I'm not telling lies. |

Because they figured they were on holiday , guard down etc .... Why did they start the 6 day war in June ? If they had done it in September it would be listed here but as they didn't hey ho never mind |

By:
ah, they called it the 7day war.

adam begat seth. etc
their ages are added up - they live in real history under kings that are dated. it's been worked out. By other johnnies. the jewish year is 360 days long. it's been messed about and changed by Pope. but the year is 5777 now. and the date is the date. the schmitah is there to calibrate the seasons. God's clock is working fine. Now is the time. 2000 years since christ. he's actually late. He says in the bible he'll wait for the last of the gentiles to come in. the multiple anniversaries, the starsign in the heavens, all the other stuff going on. it's a lock. it's several billions to one. I'm declaring this for the christians that aren't prepared. they are going whether they know it or not. the whole body is leaving. poor atheists - god didn't pick you for the team. remember in the playground, you are not getting picked. God does the choosing. He knows you are full of lies, you embrace far out bs like evolution. well in a few months you'll know you are sucking it all up like a hoover. it'll be such a shock you'll continue to pay reverence to your mountain of illusions. you'll forget all the missing people and carry on regardless. they'll give a far out excuse and you'll suck it up just to prove your still right. |
