1 | Why does God respect Satan's opinion | Job 1:8 | Finder | 233065 | ||
Could someone please teach me what is going on here?: KJV Job 1:8 And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil? I don't understand why a Holy God, Who doesn't need to ask questions about what is inside the heart of people, would ask what was inside Satan's heart regarding His servant Job. Was God trying to convince Satan that He was worthy to be served by righteous men? Did God need Satan's recognition of His worthiness? Why was Satan's opinion so important to God? And why God decided to mess up Job's life just to prove to a depraved worthless Satan, that he was a righteous man? Wasn't God's testimony good enough to ascertain the fidelity of Job's heart? Why should He or Job need the rotten opinion of Satan himself? Very concerned, Finder |

How could the Israelites melt gold and make the golden calf while Moses was talking to God if they didn’t have a furnace, neither industry in the desert to mold that gold? And how could they find a graving tool in the desert? Thank you, Max |

4 | Why Jesus changed his mind in caring for | Matt 6:26 | Finder | 221959 | ||
Are humans really more important than birds? Birds have been cared for but a huge number of people continue to be dying of hunger in this world. Why Jesus promised to take care of humans and then ended up allowing people to die without food? Thank you, Finder |

5 | Can women teach in the church | 1 Tim 2:12 | Finder | 221729 | ||
Hello, I have seen women working as pastors and conference speakers. Joyce Meyer, who has a ministry which covers two thirds of the world is one of them. Actually, I think she is excellent. But now I don't know how to understand the situation. For me, the only explanation is that God has blessed her. But how can I understand 1 Timothy 2:12? Thank you, Finder |

9 | Who does really God care about | Ps 146:9 | Finder | 213376 | ||
I would like to ask you a question about something that has dramatically shaken my faith. So far I had understood that God was the protector of the fatherless and was concerned with the hungry. But I've seen these pictures of African children, adolescents and older dying in their skin and bones by hunger litery withering. Well, after that, the only thing I could think of is that God in fact doesn't hear the cry of the oppressed and hungry and that they die mercilessly with no energy to utter any cry any longer. As a matter of fact, this is not new as you can check on the following verses where God didn’t intervene either: NAS Judges 19:25 But the men would not listen to him, so the man seized his concubine and brought her out to them. And they raped her and abused her all night until morning, then let her go at the approach of dawn. NAS Judges 19:27 When her master arose in the morning and opened the doors of the house and went out to go on his way, then behold, his concubine was lying at the doorway of the house, with her hands on the threshold. Judges 19:28-29 28 And he said to her, "Get up and let us go," but there was no answer. Then he placed her on the donkey; and the man arose and went to his home. 29 When he entered his house, he took a knife and laid hold of his concubine and cut her in twelve pieces, limb by limb, and sent her throughout the territory of Israel. My question: If God doesn't attend these, why would he hear me or you? Why pray? Thank you, |

10 | What does God owe the Devil? | Luke 4:6 | Finder | 209515 | ||
Why does God allow a total evil being like the Devil in the realm of human beings? He was GIVEN more power and dominion than us on this planet. Why does the Devil recieved such a priviledged treatment like this? Why does he have all this power and authority? Why doesn't God get rid of him at least for our sake? | ||||||
11 | Is a good conscience enough for salvatio | Rom 2:7 | Finder | 209285 | ||
Is this verse saying that regardless of the religion of the person, whoever does what is written in it will be saved? (For the complete idea maybe the preceding verse should be added:Romans 2:6-7 6 He will render to each one according to his works: 7 to those who by patience in well-doing seek for glory and honor and immortality, he will give eternal life; ). | ||||||

13 | The responsibility of sinful inheritance | Is 14:12 | Finder | 186289 | ||
Hello MJH, Excuse me for the delay in answering your message. It is like a breath of fresh air to see that you have an open mind and interest in investigating and discussing the "foundations or our existence". I myself didn't get into this with what seems to me, your more cheerful way in looking for the answers. As you mentioned, there is an ache in the heart, that in my case, demands some clarity of mind, to say the least. But that is not easy. I am glad my questions seemed meaningful to you. I myself am not very satisfied with them because there are so many details and implications involved and I have not been able to organize them in an ideal form. And they are just the basic aspects or points of ´"my question". Other details involved multiply every day. But I believe that what I have posted can indicate pretty much what my major concerns are. Sure, if you are still willing to offer such a generous help I would be very glad in sending the questions to you once at a time, as you wish. And excuse me if they sound a little strange, because for each detail to be presented I feel that I should include many other details accompanying it, so that it would imply exactly what I have in my mind. I guess the one that carries the most potential to touch in the core of the problem is the following: 5 b - Is it "sympathetic" for any human being to be born with no other chance but that of being sinful, evil, from sinful parents, in a sinful and cursed world, ruled by an evil being like Satan, not having any idea about what Adam experienced in the Garden of Eden? Thank you, Finder |

14 | Possibility of finding reliable source | Is 14:12 | Finder | 186284 | ||
Dear Doc, Thank you for your suggestions. But how am I going to be able to identify which source on the Web is reliable concerning the views on Theodicy? How can absolute truth really be found on this issue? I just read one that used the law of logic to explain his views on Theodicy, and not only it sounded inconsistent and contraditory, but he didn't even substantiate the reasons why his "lógic" was "right" except for some superficial quotations that didn't hold water. I won't even quote them here because I have no interest that it comes to the view of the public. Thank you, Finder |

15 | Destiny of created beings | Is 14:12 | Finder | 186203 | ||
I have a question that I tried to ignore for a long time, but now I can't seem to think of any other thing. I am stuck with this one. I don't know how to present it very well but I will try. The best way I can think of formulating this question is asking them to you as if you were in the position of God Himself. Obviously you are not God. But I am not good with words and it seems the clearest way I can formulate this question. And I divided it by parts because I wouldn't be able to state the whole question in a single paragraph. 1 - If you had a son, would you present an opportunity for him to betray you, so that you could know what is in his heart, or you would just be concerned in providing to him convenient opportunities to strengthen his relationship with you? (God put the prohibited fruit in the Garden of Eden). 2 - Worse now. Would you allow a complete evil being like Satan, to go to this Garden and deceive your son? (Although here, Eve was deceived, not Adam). But nonetheless, offer the opportunity for him to be corrupted, and a stranger, and an enemy? Would you offer such a terrifying opportunity to your son? 3 - Would you allow Satan to be loose, tempting other angels and ruling the world, knowing that he came to steal, kill and destroy for as long as the world would last? 3 b - What right did Satan acquire to be allowed to exercise such freedom and power to proliferate evil, offence, destruction and oppression? 4 - Would you allow Satan to come to your presence? What would you owe Satan, to let him be in your presence trying to offend you and destroy your creation? 5 - Would you create beings that came from the loins of Adam that would have no option but to be naturally your enemies, born in corruption, and dead in their sinful nature? 5 b - Is it "sympathetic" for any human being to be born with no other chance but that of being sinful, evil, from sinful parents, in a sinful and cursed world, ruled by an evil being like Satan, not having any idea about what Adam experienced in the Garden of Eden? 5 c - Would it be just a question of mere DNA that human beings would be forced to be born in this fallen and miserable condition without having, each one of them, the first chance to choose from God or the fruit of the tree of Good and Evil in the Garden as Adam had? 5 d - Couldn't human beings be born as independent individuals, like angels, and have the opportunity to make their individual choices to follow God or not, instead of being forced to be born already dead spiritually, to live in a cursed world? Thank you for your attention. Finder |

20 | Educational guarantee for life and godli | Prov 22:6 | Finder | 183424 | ||
I found a very serious problem in the book of Proverbs. Solomon who wrote the book said: Proverbs 22:6 Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it. But he himself was taught by David and abandoned what he had learned. Could it be that he learned with his father to have wives and concubines and just excelled on this? Honestly I don't believe any human being is conditioned by what they are taught as kids. I have seen many change their ways no matter what kind of teaching they had as kids. The only thing I am sure continues in them is the psychological conditionments that don't leave the subconscious mind. But their actual life style are subject to all kinds of change, both for those who were raised in Christian homes and pagan homes. Now, what to do with this passage of Scriptures? Thank you, Finder |
