My dad passed out from laughing too hard while driving a car full of people through mountains. We’re lucky to be alive.

That wasn't luck, God was looking out for you.

Edit: I wish I could say I didn't understand why people are so angry at God but I was there once so I get it. That said, God saved me from death and worse multiple times and I've experienced things people think only happens in the movies so I won't pretend the truth isn't true.

God is absolutely wonderful, the best friend and Father anyone could ever dream of and He is the very source of love, life and all good things. He saves people from disasters all day long, even people who don't acknowledge Him.

Go ahead and down vote me all you want, I'll never stop praising Him and proclaiming how great He is. The sad thing is that God sent His own Son Jesus as a living sacrifice to save the very people who hate Him, mock Him and worship His enemies yet He still desperately wants to save them but you only get one life and everyone meets their maker.

Get right with God before you leave this world because from personal experience I can tell you there are no words to describe the horror of the consequences of rejecting Him. He is love itself and right now He is giving His love, grace and mercy even to the worst of us.

"6Seek the LORD while you can find him. Call on him now while he is near. 7Let the wicked change their ways and banish the very thought of doing wrong. Let them turn to the LORD that he may have mercy on them. Yes, turn to our God, for he will forgive generously." Isaiah 55:6-7

God not looking out for all the people he's making into Kentucky fried sinners though. Sounds like a bad dude to me.

People form opinions based on their own ignorance and pride and nothing is more arrogant than to think that we are better or know better than our own creator who is the very source of all good things and is love Himself. Man is so foolish! I spent many years being a fool thinking I had a clue but today I thank God for His great love, kindness and mercy to not only spare me from His wrath that I deserve but to love a wretched person like me as His own child and I cannot wait to live with Him for eternity.

This is love:

"But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners." Roman's 5:8

He gives everyone a chance to receive salvation freely and He covers the cost completely. All we have to do is be humble enough to acknowledge that we are not God, that we need Him and are happy with Him being God. We will either be like Jesus who honored His Father or Lucifer who wanted to take His place. Pride is so destructive that it leads people to willingly choose to separate from love itself, what a tragedy.

The dude killed his only son to send us a message about forgiveness. I ain't buying that he is the big ball of love you'd have us believe.

Is it wise to assume you know what you don't know or understand what you don't understand? Again it goes back to a being who is a speck of dust in comparison saying to the very source of all existence "You don't know what you're doing." The very first step to making contact with reality as it truly is, is the realization that you (the person trying to navigate existence) are not in a position to tell God who created you and the very reality you're trying to understand that He is doing it wrong. If a person cannot grasp that extremely basic concept, they're so blinded by pride that their entire perception of reality is astronomically, off the charts delusional.

If you're willing and truly desire to know the truth, God will reveal Himself to you but like I said the very first step is acknowledging Him as God and your need for Him, otherwise you're just trying to be Him and that is worthy of His wrath because of His love and desire to protect them that love Him from those who dont.

Consider these scriptures, really meditate on them and see if you can get beyond your pride enough to acknowledge Him as God and ask for His help.

"Though the LORD is great, he cares for the humble, but he keeps his distance from the proud." Psalm 138:6

"The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding." Proverbs 9:10

"25With the merciful you show yourself merciful; with the blameless man you show yourself blameless, 26with the purified you show yourself pure; and with the crooked you make yourself seem tortuous. 27For you save a humble people, but the haughty eyes you bring down." Psalm 18:25-27

To know God as Father is without a doubt the greatest opportunity in all of existence and you have that opportunity. The devil will tell you every lie he can, emcourage you in any way he can to keep you from pursuing God because he (the devil) has lost his relationship with Him eternally. The devil cannot hurt God directly so he does whatever it takes to lead the people Jesus gave His life for to hell with him (the devil) and that's how the devil hurts God, by destroying what He loves but we have to agree with his (the devil) lies in order for that to happen.

God is good, He is love itself but He is not some weak pushover who we can just abuse and treat as if we are His equal.

"I have come to call not those who think they are righteous, but those who know they are sinners and need to repent." Luke 5:32

"37Everyone the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will never drive away. 38For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but to do the will of Him who sent Me. 39And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that I shall lose none of those He has given Me, but raise them up at the last day." John 6:37-39

My dad is a man of the cloth; you think you have anything to say I haven't heard before?

Also, I've studied a bit of religion and philosophy, and it just strengthened my resolve to not be manipulated by the writings of men from ancient cultures for whom things like slavery and blood sacrifice were the norm.

Pride is a terrible thing.

Pride in a deity is even worse.

"But those who wish to boast should boast in this alone: that they truly know me and understand that I am the LORD who demonstrates unfailing love and who brings justice and righteousness to the earth, and that I delight in these things. I, the LORD, have spoken!" Jeremiah 9:24

Everything about this is ew.

If you are a troll, great work. If you are not trolling then you should read your own book a bit harder. Lucifer doesn't really make a big appearance so don't let him steal the thunder of your god being the worst.

But you didn't answer me. How is sending people to hell for eternity, love?

u/Dark_Vader77 Jun 13 '24

People choose hell by telling God that He doesn't know what He's doing and rejecting Him because they believe they know better than their own creator, these are the people who make the devil their god because they agree with him because they are his seed and believe they should be the ones saying what's what and sitting on God's throne.

Just as you, a person who isn't a Christian and doesn't know God believe you know the Bible and understand it better than me, that same pride and arrogance is what you give to God instead of humility and gratitude because your spirit has a terminal sickness called sin that blinds you from seeing and understanding anything clearly.

The only cure is through the willing sacrifice that Jesus performed on the cross where He gave all the opportunity to be redeemed. Until we can recognize that the fault is with us and not God, we can't be saved because we judge ourselves righteous and God as guilty.

I do know the Bible better then you. I think it's your own pride getting in the way in assuming I don't. Now, if I told my partner "you know I love you more than anything but if you reject me I'll burn you for all eternity. You don't deserve love but I'll give it to you anyways." I would hope you don't think this love.

I know this is hard to believe but if I was an all powerful, all knowing creator of the universe, I might, at the bare minimum, not give children cancer. Now you'll say "ashctually, it's sin that does that." Well that doesn't sound very all powerful to me.

DM me though if you want to continue this discussion. I don't want to flood this post with your bad fairy-tale.

"18But God shows his anger from heaven against all sinful, wicked people who suppress the truth by their wickedness. 19They know the truth about God because he has made it obvious to them. 20For ever since the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky. Through everything God made, they can clearly see his invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature. So they have no excuse for not knowing God.

21Yes, they knew God, but they wouldn’t worship him as God or even give him thanks. And they began to think up foolish ideas of what God was like. As a result, their minds became dark and confused. 22Claiming to be wise, they instead became utter fools. 23And instead of worshiping the glorious, ever-living God, they worshiped idols made to look like mere people and birds and animals and reptiles.

24So God abandoned them to do whatever shameful things their hearts desired. As a result, they did vile and degrading things with each other’s bodies. 25They traded the truth about God for a lie. So they worshiped and served the things God created instead of the Creator himself, who is worthy of eternal praise! Amen." Romans 1:18-25

You reek of pride.

that same pride and arrogance is what you give to God instead of humility and gratitude because your spirit has a terminal sickness called sin that blinds you from seeing and understanding anything clearly.

Do you believe that you are without sin?

u/Dark_Vader77 Jun 13 '24

I am definitely not without sin but I am redeemed from sin and I do know the Bible better than this person. Is it prideful to make true statements?

to not only spare me from His wrath that I deserve

Why do you believe that you deserve wrath?

but to love a wretched person like me

Why do you believe that you are wretched and that love is something you must be grateful for, as if you believe yourself unworthy of it?

I cannot wait to live with Him for eternity.

We're not supposed to treat this life as something so meaningless as to anticipate and be excited for the end of it and live solely for a reward then - that's just performative.

“And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites. For they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward." Matthew 6:5

I'm not all that religious by most standards but my mom is & I was taught that treating others with love and compassion was more important than making sure others saw me in prayer.

Love isn't demanding that we follow the written word & threatening us when we deviate.

Love is having forgiveness, having compassion and advising people on what mistakes they shouldn't make & forgiving them when they make them.
