I'm not calling God wicked, I'm calling the record that God did it. According to Jesus it is Satan who steals, kills and destroys, not God

I do address them, however not in the way you think they should be addressed. Why do I do this? because the assumed reference you use for understanding 'God's Wrath' is faulty....the which I am attempting to draw your attention to .....but it seems you are resistant to anything but your own...

I'm not avoiding it at all, that is what you are doing. I know exactly where you are coming from. The thing is, you are so sure of your position you don't bother to check out Romans 1 or even make an enquiry. That being the case, it's not possible to have any constructive conversation on the matter.

When 'Preaching the Gospel' is understood as talking at people, I for one, run. It appears every man and his dog who has a strong persuasion feel the need to justify his understanding by letting the world know of his opinion irrespective of whether those being talked at are listening or not...

Drowning the whole world was not wicked?

It appears you are unfamiliar with Pauls explanation and definition of 'God's Wrath' in Romans 1 With this ignorance one cannot help but revert to Mans definition which assumes violence is solved with violence perpetrated.

I would say you are simply denying that sword in the mouth is a metaphor and that God's wrath as defined in Romans 1 does not apply. (swords are used in hands, not mouths) Mans wrath is to use violence....he thinks this will solve the problem.....he superimposes his wrath onto God and assumes...

Patriarchy definitely wont lie down without a fight. Consider the Moslem culture today which has nurtured and maintained itself with alarming force.

God does not pressure you for anything. It is your own self image and the devil who accuses. That said, get into healthy eating and move your body....yup, push it with determination.....a thumping heart and gasping lungs on a regular basis does wonders for oxygen supply .....and self image. :)

'the woman that you gave me' was Adam's reply to God. The lack of responsibility, ie owning ones own sh.t started back in Eden. Coming clean is resisted when sin is present and blaming, it's bedfellow.

You are loved by the greatest lover in the Universe and he does not hold anything against you. It is you and others including the Devil, who keeps the accusing voices coming. We (humanity) have been saddled with disfunction of all colours and stripes by no choice of our own and God understands...

Solutions to problems associated with one's health are often simpler than we want to believe. So why don't we want to believe them? Because it will cost! Firstly there is the cost of coming out of denial and secondly there is the cost and determination to break a loved habit.....be it what...

Perhaps these words are expressing consequences as opposed to making them happen? I find it helpful to remember that the Hebrew writers attributed everything that went on to God, both good and evil. I have also learned they were in error with this understanding. I say this because Jesus...

...and what is the sword Jesus has in his mouth? ...isn't it that of truth....and what is the truth, even that which Pilate asked of Jesus?....isn't it that of kindness even towards God's enemies? Isn't fighting violence with violence the same as an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth...

Why not engage? As to this conversation years ago elsewhere, I doubt it

As I understand it, it is all the resurrected wicked after the millennium ie, the second resurrection.

Just as it says bugalugs.

Probably less confusing to just answer the question Davy :)

Why is God letting evil things happen? If choice is real consequences result. We chose/ choose poorly, we reap miserable consequences.

what is it you think I'm missing Jay?
