    Is it okay to blame God for stuff that is his fault?

    Another question. That's all you've got?

    Is it okay to blame God for stuff that is his fault?

    Yep, there you go. Your interpretation of the above text is, "we fight not against flesh and blood, but against flesh and blood." And you don't see it.

    Is it okay to blame God for stuff that is his fault?

    That's a lie. I quoted several passages quoting Jesus and Paul. They both spoke of, and Jesus spoke directly to, Satan and demons. If that's not evidence enough for you then very deep and entrenched your deception is.

    Is it okay to blame God for stuff that is his fault?

    A late friend of mine, a neighbour, got to deeply involved in ancient religious and customary practices of her indigenous people. I visited one night and she tried to attack me but for her husband grappling with her on the floor to hold her back. She then spoke to me with a male voice with such...

    Is it okay to blame God for stuff that is his fault?

    I also could ask numerous questions, as could most people, regarding a plethora of topics and accuse you of being dumb or ignorant because you don't have all the answers. But the Bible doesn't tell us everything. Many questions remain unanswered that God in his wisdom has left deliberately...

    Is it okay to blame God for stuff that is his fault?

    Your language lesson on similes is impressive. Over the top however and utterly unnecessary. I know what a simile is. But thanks anyway. Thing is this. The text in question, Luke 10:18, likening Satan's fall to lightening, is exactly that. The simile applies to his speed of descent, not to Satan...

    Is it okay to blame God for stuff that is his fault?

    Two separate and distinct beings. You deny one, and you cannot discern outside your own thought paradigm. Accept the word of God as truth, and the situation explains itself. You don't go to the extreme of claiming Balaam's donkey was anything other than a donkey, because no other creature off...

    Is it okay to blame God for stuff that is his fault?

    They aren't enforcing doctrine... Yet. But the impetus at the moment is heading quickly in that direction. The Charlie Kirk assassination will only flame the fire. And the Republican party was during on free speech and constitutional rights. Now they've cancelled Jimmy Kimmel because they were...

    Why is ISLAM : Dedicated to destroying Israel?

    Why is ISLAM : Dedicated to destroying Israel? Because they are being manipulated, like many other nations, in doing Satan's bidding, although Satan doesn't a toss about Israel or any other nation. It's just convenient to have a centuries old feud to work with. . But the scenario you describe...

    Is it okay to blame God for stuff that is his fault?

    Next question. You said, Actually, it does say exactly that. “And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven. ” Luke 10:18 KJV https://www.unfeignedbible.app/Luke.10.18 You claim Satan is non personal, but rather an idea or ideology or concept that opposes God's people...

    Is it okay to blame God for stuff that is his fault?

    @Hiddenthings I'm going to tackle this one question at a time. You said, First question. Where did the sin, opposition, and human power under judgement come from in the context of Genesis 1 and 2.

    Is it okay to blame God for stuff that is his fault?

    @GodsGrace I think you will find this informative. Five Good reasons why there is suffering. First reason part 1, the other 4 part 2.

    Is it okay to blame God for stuff that is his fault?

    That's exactly how I meant it. Bad things happening to good people is merely a symptom of that. Bad people surviving and influencing society far longer that we believe they ought to be. The expectation that God should act the moment we see evil and inflict vengeance on our behalf or someone...

    Is it okay to blame God for stuff that is his fault?

    I read through my post again and discovered a couple of errors giving an impression the opposite to what I intended. Blame Google, or fat fingers, not God.hlo

    Is it okay to blame God for stuff that is his fault?

    And Jesus said, an enemy has done this.

    Is it okay to blame God for stuff that is his fault?

    Absolutely I stand by my reading of that text. Let us see it in context shall we... “17 And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name. 18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven. 19 Behold, I give unto you...

    Is it okay to blame God for stuff that is his fault?

    Indeed they do. But rattling off a screed of Bible texts for many is simply sensory overload. They just switch off. The symbolic women are also symbolic, but of real women? No. Two churches, one true, faithful, and pure, the other unfaithful through association with government, and apostate...

    Is it okay to blame God for stuff that is his fault?

    @GodsGrace There's a further aspect to this. The church was designed to reflect Christ. Agreed? Not only in the NT, but throughout all history. God had His champions, yet at some time or other, they fell short of God's ideal, but never has God veered away from His ultimate purpose. To have a...

    Is it okay to blame God for stuff that is his fault?

    @ I'm not here to argue with you. My name is brakelite. When I post it's to make you think. I will defend what I believe from scripture when I feel the need, and if I think it would make a difference. If you choose however to ignore reason and malign personal testimony, then there's nothing...
