When should an omnipotent, omniscient, benevolent Being be expected to do anything god-like? Here's our take on the subject.

Praise Jebus, die anyway. What caliber would Jebus use?

@sexyeur That is EXACTLY why I believe in science, not some goofy supernatural magical guy who makes people give away everything for him, and has made his followers kill tons of men, women and children.

AND THAT IS WHY YOU SHOULD TOO.

[LeeviON]

@sexyeur Those both are from the bible. Again, how do you know the bible is true?? It is written 2000 years ago, in a society where diseases were the work of the devil, hurricanes meant that god was angry, earth was flat and the center of everything and stars were but holes in the giant curtain we call sky.

Since then some of the greatest minds ever existed have brought earth into a whole new era of medicine, technology, information and man.....

@sexyeur What are you talking about, I never even mentioned power or love. Read my damn question, why do you keep giving me this random crap.

@LeeviON "How do you know the Bible is true?"

Prophecy. Yeshua HaMashiach (Jesus Christ) quoted it. Shaul (The Apostle Paul). Christians who died keeping His faith. And like Pascal: "I prefer to believe those writers who get their throats cut for what they write." These are a few of the reasons why I honestly believe. Amen.

@TouchMyHandHoles "How do you know that you're worshiping the correct God?"

Because I remember His words: "Remember the words I spoke to you: 'No servant is greater than his master.' If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also...'"—John 15:20

"Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows."—Gal.6:7

"Would it turn out well if he examined you? Could you deceive him as you might deceive men?"—Job 13:9

Jesus answered. "No one is good--except God alone."—Mark 10:18

@sexyeur Where is your proof? (The Bible is not proof, only a book made by humans). Even if there is something out there it DEFF. is not a white beared man in the sky. Deff. not anything we believe in now. Your religon is wrong, goodbye.

@civwarfan "You believe in Satan?"

yet even angels, although they are stronger and more powerful, do not bring slanderous accusations against such beings in the presence of the Lord. [2 Peter 2:11 NIV]

@civwarfan "You believe in Satan?"

Even the archangel Michael, when he argued with the devil and fought over the body of Moses, did not..bring a slanderous accusation against him. Instead, he said, "May the Lord rebuke you!" Yet these men speak abusively against whatever they do not understand; and what things they do understand by instinct, like unreasoning animals—these are the very things that destroy them. [Jude 1:9-10 ISV]

@iLoveEatingPie I have answered. You asked of 'power,' and I have more correctly qualified 'power' in terms of His love, even as Scriptures say only three things last, the *greatest* of which *is* love. Nothing else matters. So love *is* All-Powerful. Again, I tell you the truth: His love *never* fails; and that, again (forever settle this in your mind) IS true Power. God is love, and since love never fails—He is All-Powerful. But you dimly think love is weak, so it couldn't mean 'power' to you.
