Fully agree. Its not an easy topic. I could actually argue against myself on this one... But I would at least appreciate knowing and a demonstration od acknowledgement that they heard the arguement.

Gismys, have you read the very first post in this thread? I wrote it back in 2011. Isa 45:7 isn't the only verse that suggests God created evil.

Angelina is a Christian who is strong in the faith. I may not always agree with her but I have no doubt of her love.

Well that's interesting. Compare that to the reference I quoted. It seems the Jewish place more emphasis on getting it right in this life. Jesus came preaching heaven and hell and told us to set our affection on things above. Heaven is above both hell and earth, so to speak. It seems to me...

Thats not exactly what verse 28 says... At least not according to the KJV. Perhaps another version says it a bit differently. Saying John the Bapyist is was not a Christian. .. I don't kbow about that. He leaped for joy while in his mother's womb when he heard the news. His ministry pointed...

Here is something I pulled off the web on the Jewish concept of the afterlife. I've included the reference. I looked at one other source and found it to be pretty much the same. I'll comment later, but I am looking forward to what others think. Judaism 101: Olam Ha-Ba: The Afterlife...

Ugh! Bygrace we have got to stop meeting like this after I get off work of my second job! I am wondering out loud without researching... What was/is the Jews concept of the afterlife? Do they believe in heaven? I did a word search and the first 20 appearances can be tken to mean the sky and...

Good. I accept your apology. Now then, if you have something to say, then do so.

Well then we aren't going to have a dialogue. Perrero, i am not going to answer a bunch of questions that don't seem to have relevance and are clearly meant for entrapment. If you have something to say, then say it. If it interrsts me, I will respond.

Wow. A six year old thread has been brought back from the dead!

Yet he did... Several times. I gave you plenty examples. And whom is God talking about when Peter said God is not willing that any should perish? He's talking about Christians. Gentle nudging? Ok. Did God intervene and change their will? Yes, he did. Not so... God was the first to harfen...

Do you believe that God has the ability to fix it, and will?

The Lord's will be done... But in the end I'd like to see the animals live like they were ordained to live without human filth screwing up their lives. That includes humans.

Having not read the 3 pages of responses, and not having a solid Biblical answer known to me, I offer only my musings: God really has it good. He doesn't seem to have much stress or worries. He got to declare the end from the beginning. He councils with himself so I don't really think anyone...

How so? Could you explain that to me? Are we not members of his body? Of his flesh and bone? Are we not instructed to ask not of my will, but thy will? The flesh wants free will. The spirit wants his will. Maybe you are right... Maybe the true person does want free will. But I don't think...

Those are pretty strong words and you have not backed up anything with scripture. No need... I have been around this block many times before. I couldve written that whole oost for you myself. The thing is if we really do have free will, then God will never intervene. Once he does he breaks...

And here you are too.

Why does 7 represent represent complete? And when was Harod called "great"? Jesus was called greater than Solomon and Jonah. Mechesidek was called great. Diana was even called great. I don't remember the Bible calling Harod "great".
