1 | Why would God do that? | Gen 2:7 | Searching333 | 89511 | ||
I have had this question in my head for years. I have asked people from time to time for the answer with on results. Maybe someone out there can help me. Why would God creat someone knowing that in the end that they where not going to make it to Heaven. Please, I am not talking about " Free Will". God knows everything, past, present,and future. Why would He do that? |

Let me answer your question with a question or two. (1) Why would a person plant a garden, knowing that there are going to be weeds in it? (2) If automobiloes could speak, would a Model A have had the right to ask Henry ford, "With all my imperfections, you know I'm going to end up in the junk yard, why have you created me? or why didn't you create me with air conditioning, an AM/FM sterio CD player and plush interior? You knew they would all be invented." "I am the potter. You are the clay." George |

Thank you George for trying to answer my question. I am not a garden or an Model A Ford. I am a human being with an eternal soul. And i have a right to know why God would create His greatest creation knowing that that person with an eternal soul was going to spend the rest of eternity in hell. If there is not an answer to this question, then so be it. But no one should say i do not have the right to ask. Thanks again | ||||||

IT IS NOT HIS WILL THAT ANYONE SHOULD PERRISH. (GNB) Jer 18:5 Then the LORD said to me, 6 "Don't I have the right to do with you people of Israel what the potter did with the clay? You are in my hands just like clay in the potter's hands. Isa 29:16 They turn everything upside down. Which is more important, the potter or the clay? Can something you have made say, "You didn't make me"? Or can it say, "You don't know what you are doing"? YOU HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO ASK. Isa 45:9 Does a clay pot dare argue with its maker, a pot that is like all the others? Does the clay ask the potter what he is doing? Does the pot complain that its maker has no skill? However, finding the answer you desire may more be a little difficult. I reciently read in a good commentary, the clossest thing I have ever seen to being a good answer to your question. The only problem is that I can't remember what topic I was researching or which commentary ity was. I think it may have been predestination that I was researching. This topic concerns me as much as yours does you. In actuality, they are one in the same. HERE IS YOUR ANSWER... Whether or not you can or will accept it is up to you. GOD KNEW BEFORE HE CREATED THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH THAT YOU AND I WOULD BE RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW, DOING JUST WHAT WE ARE DOING AT THIS VERY MOMENT. LIKEWISE HE KNEW WHAT YOUR DECISION AND MINE WOULD BE AS TO THE ACCEPTANCE OF HIS SON AND HIS WORD. DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR DECISION IS GOING TO BE? If you don't. I would suggest you figure it out. For no one can do it for you... I pray you will understand what has been given me to give you. If you don't, perhaps your time is not yet. Don't let it worry you. Continue your search. Continue to pray. Continue to ask. For our Lord has appointed a time for EVERYTHING. Even ones salvation. IT IS NOT HIS WILL THAT ANYONE SHOULD PERRISH. Praise His loving name! George |

Thank You George, that is the best response that i have gotten so far. i dont mean to come off like i am judging God. i am just asking a question like i ask when i was a little kid; who is God, who is Jesus, and why is the sky blue? i cannot judge the Creator of the universe. i am not saying that God is wrong. how could i say such a thing. i cant even build a dog house let alone the universe. i know that God did not originally create the lake of fire for man. it was created for the devil and his angels. i forget in what book in the Bible i read that in. Thanks for answer and prayer. searching333 |

Searching333, Keep on Searching. You are Gods Word proven and come to life. Ask and ye SHALL recieve, "Seek and ye SHALL FIND." I learned early in life that the only dumb question is the one that was not asked. To date, I don't get all my answers either. I often have to simply "go on faith." And, that AIN'T ALWAYS SO SIMPLE. Yet it IS so simple! I complicate my life by not accepting that simple fact... I once read that "if understanding came b4 acceptance, there would be very little that we would accept." Ponder that. Once one has accepted that fact, he has entered the doorway to wisdom and understanding. It is funny though, that if my question is a sincere one, eventually the Lord gives me the answer. Sometimes it's the next time I turn on the radio. Others it is through hard work and study, which gives me a hollow satisfaction, still it is satisfaction. I am most satisfied when He "proves" to me that He knows and provides for me. Am I silly, foolish, lazy, or just just overjoyed that He has even the slightest interest in one such as myself??? I pondered your question in the form of "pre-destination" for 30 years or more. I only reciently ran across the answer. And I wasn't even looking for it! God bless George |

Hi George, I found that verse that i feel it says that hell was not originally created for man. If you have time I would like your thoughts on it. Matt.25:41 KJV Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels. God Bless searching333 |

You are correct. "Hell was not originally created for man." So says the word. It was intended for Satan and his rebellious angelic followers. Which would you consider worse; a rebellious angel, or an individual who continues to rebell by not accepting the word of the King, (and, or) the fact that He sent his ONLY Son to pay the price for our evil deeds? We are all siners! Anyone who says he is not, is a LIAR AND THE TRUTH IS NOT IN HIM! He only decieves himself. We are saved by the GRACE of God, and that is by nothing we have in any way earned. For ALL HAVE SINED AND COME SHORT OF THR GLORY OF GOD. In this complicated environment in which we live, some simply can not comprehend the utter simplicity of salvation. What difference does it make what one believes? NONE!!!! As long as one believes in what I just stated; knows and admits in his heart that he is desirving of death and eternal damnation and confess', and asks for forgiveness; he or she "IS SAVED." However, as some would have you to think, this is not all there is to it .... Christian life is not as easy as one might hope. It was never said that it would be. It was said though that the old man would be passed away and all things would become new. "BY THE RENEWING OF THE MIND." This is not something that just happens! One must Live the Life once saved. Read Pauls letter to the Galations. Then read it a second time. It's a short book. He had preached the Gospel to them, but there were those who wanted to add to that Gospel. Find out what he said about those who wanted to add to what he had said. George |
