Um... Hahaha. Crazy man, God (I think, Because I don't know and don't claim to know) Is probably sad when he watches us go the wrong way and follow the wrong path, maybe angry when we do stupid things like kill each other but when you said like happy things wont be happy? The whole point of this is in the end, if your good..You will be happy.
finding John Piper more than a little scary to be honest... He teaches that God foreordained the lost to eternal wrath, and there's nothing they can do about it. The gospel, on the other hand, teaches all men to repent, and says that God loves them all, not willing that ANY should perish, that he provided all they need if they would but see the truth and turn. Redemption is available to all and accessible to all, hence the regret will be enormous when people realise they COULD have been saved.
love this preaching, winter time coming when the word will become desirable for those who despise the word of God, and a comfort for the ones engaged in the spiritual battle. love john piper, man used by God
FillTheirVoid:--it is a perfect and calculated anger. -- That`s even worse than a sudden uncalculated anger. Your god, the way you see him is just a super-human. He has nothing godly about him
It's not assumptions ... it's what has been written in the scripture.
More importantly though, is the demonstration of the character of God in Jesus Christ.
These are spiritually concepts, we're talking about a God who is invisible. You cannot put Him underneath a microscope.
God reveals Himself to us in the way in which He chooses to do so. Which is by nature, the testimony of our consciences, the scripture, and His people. God commands us to walk by faith, not sight, in this present age.
Every knee shall bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, including you my friend. You can kid yourself as much as you like, but the end is coming and our almighty God will judge each one according to his deeds. Repent while it is still today.
God's holy word says that He is coming again to judge everyone. I cant wait for that moment. If as you say, the bible is filled with lies, when I die I will lose nothing, most likely sleep forever. But, if the what the bible says is true and Christ is coming again and there is something called judgement and hell is real. I think you'll find you've got much more to lose than me, for you have heard the truth yet still refuse to believe in it. I hope our loving Father will change your heart.
I don't think so, God's tyrannical rule is not like that of a sinful man. The reason I use this word is because God is not up for re-election next month, He is God forever.
Adam was the original representative of mankind, if he sinned in the garden, you would have too.
We must bear some of the consequences of adam's sin, however, we will only be punished and held accountable for our personal choices to sin against God.
You have made the conscious, willful, and knowledgeable choice to directly violate God's clear commands.
Not only this, but even after He offers you salvation in Christ, you reject that also!
"While the Israelites were in the desert, a man was discovered gathering wood on the Sabbath day. Those who caught him at it brought him to MOSES and Aaron and the whole assembly. Then the Lord said to Moses, "This man shall be put to death; let the whole community stone him outside the camp." So the whole community led him outside the camp and stoned him to death as the Lord had commanded MOSES." Numbers 15:32-36 NAB
By your logic, the God of the bible is no God at all. Let me put it this way: if I saw my son taking drugs and it was ruining his life, would it not be loving of me to hate the drugs because of what it is doing to the one I love? How can I love the bad thing that is destroying the one I love? In order for love to exist, it must hate the things that destroy it.
God is supremely just in His wrath toward sinners. He is supremely merciful in placing His Son on the cross to redeem us, while we were yet sinners. This makes Him righteously just in reckoning his chosen righteous as he looks to the cross, and it makes known His vast love for His people.
So every man that comes after Adam and has Adams sinful nature, why did your god do this to us is he playing a cruel trick on us?
you call this love?
Oh and it wasn't Adam that did it, it is god that did this because god is the designer of his creation and he designed it so that sin passes from parent to child.
This world is not about humans at all. God has designed this world for himself, not for us. It is true that God extends his infinite love toward his children, while he also supremely enjoys his own glory. The redemptive plan of sending his Son for those who hate Him has caused those He has redeemed to bask in the riches of His grace. We are in awe of Him. And it is for this glory that the world was made the way it was.
You are correct. God did design this world, and sin entering this world did not surprise the One who is sovereign. So again, the answer to the question, "why does everyone have a sinful nature?" is that God loves us so much to send his only Son to pay the price for those who hate him! What a glorious show of affection! He did so even when we hated him! It is contrast of sin with righteousness that God's glory is made manifest to us!
Yes it would be, but helping the poor without spreading the Gospel is death. And this is the first step, if you don't look at yourself and say that God would be just in damning me, you're not a believer. Because the ultimate goal of the Gospel is one's happiness. And there can be no greater happiness than knowing that you have Jesus, a shield, to shield you from the wrath that you KNOW you deserve. And not only that but to be able to commune with the almighty, no greater happiness.
I will HAVE to correct you. John Piper is NOT rich, does NOT make a "posh" living. He has taught numerous times AGAINST that sort of teaching and teachers. Watch John Piper on the prosperity gospel.
LinkD3: To explain that in 400 bites, is asking for a miracle and I don`t believe in miracles. Tell me of you want a personal message. I warn you, it will be long.
The day is coming when all who disagree with John Piper will be punished. I have never seen a man so excited about the suffering of others.

No, it's not worse ... it is a righteous anger toward evil. God is good therefore He hates evil.
God is the one who reveals His attributes to us, He uses language which we can understand.
He is also a person ... meaning He has a consciousness and will and personality. All of His attributes and His character is perfectly Holy and good.
Jesus Christ is the perfect example of His character ... which is moral perfection. Absolute Holiness.
