To God be the Glory

My school's favourite song :)

To God be the glory, great things He has done;
So loved He the world that He gave us His Son,
Who yielded His life an atonement for sin,
And opened the life gate that all may go in.

Refrain

Praise the Lord, praise the Lord,
Let the earth hear His voice!
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord,
Let the people rejoice!
O come to the Father, through Jesus the Son,
And give Him the glory, great things He has done.

O perfect redemption, the purchase of blood,
To every believer the promise of God;
The vilest offender who truly believes,
That moment from Jesus a pardon receives.

Refrain

Great things He has taught us, great things He has done,
And great our rejoicing through Jesus the Son;
But purer, and higher, and greater will be
Our wonder, our transport, when Jesus we see.

@jaffacec You gave good answers to him he couldn't come up with a logical reply to that. If he thinks we all came from nothing then specs and apes with no guidance and thinks thats the truth then to think we came from intelligent design is nonsense then thats him using the free will God have him to believe in other things than the truth.

God loves you and has a wonderful and exciting plan for your life. But if you are like me, you have sinned. Sin separates us from God, His Love and His plan. Worse than that your sin earns you eternal death in the lake of fire. BUT Jesus came to plead guilty to your sin crimes and when your death penalty was announced. HE paid it. HE died for your sins. Now HE offers you a legal pardon and eternal life. Are you smart enough to accept it or will you die for your own sins and go to... Your choice

@jaffacec What nonsense !!

[jaffacec]

@tallliza yes, he created lucifer a very powerfull angel but lucifer became jelous of God and wanted to be like him and as a result rebelled against him, just as Adam and Eve, Adam and Eve had free will by God so they could choose and they therefore were responsible, he didn't force them to rebell, God however wants no one to perish and has provided a way back to him eventhough naturally we are his enemies and deserve nothing but judgement, if you refuse the only way back then what can be done?

[tallliza]

@jaffacec : So, he created satan, before adam and eve ? He allows satan to tempt mankind, knowing very well that they are going to succomb to the temptation.... the whole human race were represented in Adam and Eve ... And that is justification to punish all the generations to come ? That`s INSANITY, SADISM, that`s not justice.

[jaffacec]

@tallliza he gave Adam and Eve free will to be able to choose to stay obedient and live in paradise or sin and he clearly stated the consequences of going against him, he didn't tempt them and he cannot as he never wants somone to sin, that was satan, the whole human race were represented in Adam and Eve as we all come from them, he wants no one to perish in hell and wants all to repent and turn to Christ for forgiveness, your eternal destiny depends on your decision regarding this

[tallliza]

@jaffacec What silly nonsense. Your god is a sadistic maniac. . He knew that adam and eve were going to give-in to temptation. Yet, he tempted them, and then for their sin, he punishes all the generations to come.

[jaffacec]

@tallliza you don't seem to understand that this is a fallen world, sin has brought with it death and destruction, before the fall the world and man was perfect and there was no death or any disaters, the world you see today is the result of man's decision to rebell against God, God cannot accept any sin and all those with their sin still on them will be sent to hell for eternity however God wants none to perish and has put his son in the place of all those who repent and trust in him
