How can a god bound by his own laws stand by and allow evil and still be good? Answer: he can't, his own laws condemn him, therefore for God to be good He must be above and beyond the laws He imposes on humanity.

@boricua796 Yep, man has a freewill alright. A freewill, to do that which is in his nature, and that is sin! Man in his unregenerate state, cannot choose to do good in the eyes of God. Without faith, it is impossible to please him. And we are slaves to sin, dead in sin before conversion. It takes God, changing ones heart, from a stony one, to a heart of flesh.

@fractalfires YOUR god twiddles his thumbs as they rape her over, and over again then finally murder her. So much for his SELF-IMPOSED OBLIGATIONS! Oh, yeah he is real moral! LOL
You said, "God is benevolent" It is NEVER benevolent to not stop a rape or murder when it is within your power to do so.
You said, "God has never allowed rape, murder etc" That is the most ridiculous statement I have ever heard. He didn't stop it did He?

@fractalfires Well you dribbled all over my page with Finney's nonsense and in all your ramblings you still missed the point. In trying to understand what God meant by "He should do right", you have taken the standard of right that He has imposed on US and imposed it on Him, and as I have already shown He fails miserably. It is never right for one in authority to allow rape, murder, etc... when it is within their power to stop it. I too believe God does right, but right is whatever God does.

@Fractalliar's open deism states Joseph/Jonah are false prophets according to Deut. 18 when their prophecies allegedly failed yet they werent executed. Fractalliars idol calf says God tries and fails miserably to saved everyone since the multitude go to hell while he sits back powerless. Not to mention fractliar's sand god is a probation officer requiring works perfection to stay saved. Fractaliars is just as ignorant and incompetant as his demi-god who didn't know where Adam was and had to ask.

@1689Baptist You do NOT know what I have or have not been doing these last 6 months. You are arguing from silence, Jeff.
You proclaimed me unsaved because of my "taking sides" with fractalfires. You behave like a typical Lordship Salvationist, when you judge my salvation by my works. Now, I have a profession of faith - I believe the Gospel and I believe ALL of God's word. I believe Christ's works are done FOR ME.
Why don't you rebuke those brothers who are commiting identity theft on YouTube?

@fractalfires You said, "A god that cuts the arms off people and commands them to swim or else be punished and then calling it justice is satanism" You God twiddles his thumbs while they are drowning when he has the power to give them arms and commands them to swim or else be punished. And you call that Justice?

@fractalfires I did answer you on the difference between habitually sinning & sinning in thought, word, and deed everyday, but you are to stupid to understand it. If I didn't answer Liz it is b/c she and Monty KNOW the difference and are just trying to stir up strife. Come to think of it that just might be what you are doing!
