6 | Are you prepared for the truth? | Rom 7:7 | calmira | 168836 | ||
Speaking for myself, John, I do accept his teachings fully and try not place ideas of right or wrong on the "truth". I want to separate the "accepting" and "understanding" concept of my original question; I accept many things that I do not understand and hope to seek the knowledge to help me understand the things that I accept AND don't understand throught prayer and the seeking of answers from those, who through the same process, have come to attain greater knowledge of our Lord. Thank you for your posts. In Christ. Carlos |

11 | IF God KNEW, why make it so? | Rom 7:7 | calmira | 168809 | ||
Thank you for your response. It does give more insight than the others, as no-one was really answering the question. By the way, I am not asserting that we were not made perfect; I believe we were, but had a difficult time reconciling how sin fit into the equation. I am posing the question as a point of reference for discussion. It's odd that you assume I won't find a satisfactory answer: Your answer is very satisfactory and... if you look below, Mark's answer really shed new light on what I was asking and made things much clearer for me. Your response seems to have a condescending overtone..I apologize if that is not the case. As a believer I want to equip myself with sufficient knowledge in order that I may give an answer when asked (as I have) about this issue by non-believers. This has been my intent in asking these questions. again, thank you for your very insightful response. In Christ, Carlos |

12 | IF God KNEW, why make it so? | Rom 7:7 | calmira | 168808 | ||
Thank you Brother. Ephesians 2:4-7 is one the most powerful verse I know. Thank you for your insight. This seems to make a bit more sense for me know. God Bless. carlos |

13 | Knowing sin before the "law"? | Rom 7:7 | calmira | 168807 | ||
You are assuming I don't believe - this isn't the case. I simply want to NOT be ignorant and learn more about God and his Word and this is a question that non-believers have brought up to me various times. I would love to give a response that has a semblence of sense, i.e.,...be prepared to give an answer. (I really like that quote from Job, thank you). | ||||||
14 | Knowing sin before the "law"? | Rom 7:7 | calmira | 168780 | ||
I know that we are not "under the law". And, I understand that the law was given in order that we might know sin. Should not, "knowing" sin have come first and therefore the law not needed? | ||||||
15 | why create us as sinful creatures? | Rom 7:7 | calmira | 168778 | ||
This is very good commentary. I understand this and I accept it;however, it doesn't seem to address the "knowing" we would sin question. | ||||||
16 | IF God KNEW, why make it so? | Rom 7:7 | calmira | 168770 | ||
This doesn't seem to make sence. If we were created "perfect", this would suggest the ability to reject sin altogether. Thus, how can a *perfect* creature then willfully sin? My question is bigger than this: IF God KNEW we were going to fail, why make it so? This is what confuses me. | ||||||
17 | why create us as sinful creatures? | Rom 7:7 | calmira | 168769 | ||
I am not sure where "humility" falls into my question. I am looking to *understand* in order that i may give an informed answer when asked. If, like you said,"His plan included the salvation of sinful people, so that He would be praised for His mercy", this suggests that we were created "sinful" or with a sinful nature from the beggining. I don't seem to comprehend this concept very well and, so far, no clear consice answer has risen. | ||||||
18 | why create us as sinful creatures? | Rom 7:7 | calmira | 168762 | ||
Yes. I have heard this before. BUT, knowing we could not keep it, why start off with something that is already flawed? I am not sure i am presenting this very well. I am simply confused. Why would God chose to create us as sinful in the first place? I know we are, I just don't understand why. | ||||||
19 | Why was the "law" necessary? | Not Specified | calmira | 168758 | ||
Why was the "law" ever given if God knew that we could not keep it? I have a difficult time understanding this concept. | ||||||
