You wrote: "God created lucifer that become an opposser of Him. This person satan tempted man and fell. Is this look like we are a victim here, being created is not our request, but if you are been created you have the chance of being tormented in hell if you dont follow God's commandments." A couple of points to clarify: 1. No one MADE Adam and Eve sin. Nor are we victims when we sin. We sin because we want to sin. 2. If the way to stay out of hell is by following God's commandments, then we are all going to hell (Romans 3:23). You wrote: " It is God created everything, nobody requested Him to do all this things. If He did not created the man no one will suffer now or after life." You are correct that no one asked God to create them (a logical impossibility, in any case). God is the sovereign ruler of all things and does what He wills. "But our God is in the heavens; He does whatever He pleases." --Psalm 115:3 "Whatever the LORD pleases, He does, In heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps." --Psalm 135:6 'You will say to me then, "Why does He still find fault? For who resists His will?" On the contrary, who are you, O man, who answers back to God? The thing molded will not say to the molder, "Why did you make me like this," will it? Or does not the potter have a right over the clay, to make from the same lump one vessel for honorable use and another for common use? What if God, although willing to demonstrate His wrath and to make His power known, endured with much patience vessels of wrath prepared for destruction? And He did so to make known the riches of His glory upon vessels of mercy, which He prepared beforehand for glory, even us, whom He also called, not from among Jews only, but also from among Gentiles.' --Romans 9:19-24 You wrote: "So what is my sin, He created me but I did not requested Him to create me. Why do I have to suffer, it is not my idea to be created." Again, it does not make sense to say, "I didn't ask to be created." If you were able to ask such a thing, that would mean that you already existed. Secondly, what makes you think that God, the Creator, needs your permission (part of the creation) to do anything? As for your sin, it is the same as mine, and you mentioned it already. We rebel against the sovereign King of the universe, not doing what He tells us to do and doing what He tells us not to do. That is the definition of sin, and its wages are death (Romans 6:23). The good news is that the God who judges us guilty is also the God who was pleased to send His Son Jesus Christ to live the perfect life that we do not live, to pay the penalty of the sin of all those who trust in Him by means of His death on the Cross, and to rise again to demonstrate that that penalty is paid and that all Christians, like Christ himself, will be raised to newness of life. So God is not just the author of life; He is the author of salvation as well. --Joe! |

A couple of points to clarify: 1. No one MADE Adam and Eve sin. Nor are we victims when we sin. We sin because we want to sin. They can sin because they are been created if not they cannot so again no one will suffer here and in hell 2. If the way to stay out of hell is by following God's commandments, then we are all going to hell (Romans 3:23). That is why i find that I am a victim, being born is not man choice, but if the man born he already a victim of battle of God and satan. "But our God is in the heavens; He does whatever He pleases." --Psalm 115:3 It is likely that God pleases with the outcome of His creation? Too many die in wars, sickness shortage of food is He very happy of what the world today? "Whatever the LORD pleases, He does, In heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps." --Psalm 135:6 He pleases with the suffering here and there, killing rape, extortion and other form of evil that we have now all over the world? The good news is that the God who judges us guilty is also the God who was pleased to send His Son Jesus Christ to live the perfect life that we do not live, to pay the penalty of the sin of all those who trust in Him by means of His death on the Cross, and to rise again to demonstrate that that penalty is paid and that all Christians, like Christ himself, will be raised to newness of life. God did this because he created man, I think it His responsibilities to save His creation and besides it is all His ideas to create. I hope I can really get answers for this, these are questions in my mind always while reading the bible. Thank you for your help |

Confusing: I will try to address some of your questions. quote ." No one MADE Adam and Eve sin. Nor are we victims when we sin. We sin because we want to sin." They can sin because they are been created if not they cannot so again no one will suffer here and in hell" ---------------------------------------- Answer I agree that sin came into the world by disobedience by Adam and Eve. "Wherefore as by one man sin entered the world, and death by sin; and so death was passed upon all men, for all have sinned" Romans 5:12 ------------------------------------- quote 2. If the way to stay out of hell is by following God's commandments, then we are all going to hell (Romans 3:23). That is why i find that I am a victim, being born is not man choice, but if the man born he already a victim of battle of God and satan. " ---------------------------------------- Answer You are right on the first point. According to Romans 3 there is absolutely nothing which we can do to save ourselves "because all have sinned and have come short of the glory of God" Rom. 3:23 We cannot help how we were born. However, we are not victoms, we are sinners by birth, sinners by practice and sinners by choice. Romans 3:10-18 If it were not for the grace of God we would continue in this journey away from him. However, in his love toward us he strives with us by his Spirit drawing us to Christ. ----------------------------------------- quote: "But our God is in the heavens; He does whatever He pleases." --Psalm 115:3 It is likely that God pleases with the outcome of His creation? Too many die in wars, sickness shortage of food is He very happy of what the world today? "Whatever the LORD pleases, He does, In heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps." --Psalm 135:6 He pleases with the suffering here and there, killing rape, extortion and other form of evil that we have now all over the world? -------------------------------- Answer: You are right that God does as he pleases as your verses show. He is Sovereign, he is our creator, he does not owes anything. Yet in his grace and love he has provided a way through Christ that we can be redeemed. God has no pleasure in the death of the wicked, he tells us "Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?" In other words he is pleading with sinners to turn from their wicked ways and live. It is sinners who commit sins, God is not the author of the terrible things which happen on this earth. It is people who turn from God and committ such deeds and mankind reaps the consequences of their deeds. "The way of the transgressor is hard" (Proverbs 13:15) Think of the Lord Jesus in his day as he stood weeping as he looked over the city and lamented that "they had missed their time of visition" --------------------------------------- quote: The good news is that the God who judges us guilty is also the God who was pleased to send His Son Jesus Christ to live the perfect life that we do not live, to pay the penalty of the sin of all those who trust in Him by means of His death on the Cross, and to rise again to demonstrate that that penalty is paid and that all Christians, like Christ himself, will be raised to newness of life. God did this because he created man, I think it His responsibilities to save His creation and besides it is all His ideas to create. -------------------------------------------- Answer: It is wonderful that God saw this world in its fallen condition even before the world was made and made a way of redemption through the sacrifice of his Son. God did not owe us anything, this is an important point. We had no claims on God. As humans we made a choice. However, this high lights the grace of God toward us, that even when we were unloveable, enemies because of wicked works, God in his love and mercey sent his Son into this world to save sinners. He loved us not because he owed us, but simply because he loved us. Peace in his Name Robert |
