Part 4 Does God Lie or Can He Be Involved with Deception

A look at whether god can lie or be involved with deception.

An Honest Search for the Truth - Part 4 Does God Lie or Can He Be Involved with Deception

This video is the fourth of a series that will address inconsistencies & contradictions in the Bible that we studied and researched on our way out of organized religion. The videos will be derived from a document containing that body of research which was written to answer the many inquiries we knew we would have after our deconversion was made public. Being 3rd generation Christians, the flavor of which holds that the Bible is inerrant, divinely inspired, and literally interpreted, the extrication of ourselves from organized religion was not without exit wounds.

Our hope is that this video series will help those Christians who have questions or may be "riding the fence" to allow rational discourse with regard to their religious beliefs. And that possibly, they can remove the thought constraints installed by their respective religous beliefs.

All multimedia displayed is done so with fair use intended, for entirely non-profit, educational purposes. If you are the rightful owner of any material within the video and would like me to remove it, please contact me via my YouTube channel.

God cannot lie which means you cannot understand truth.God sent a lying spirit but directly is not involved because that spirit was a liar

[holysinecure]

@polopowers1 Why would an all-knowing god, who knew the spirit was a liar, send it to affect the decisions of a man?

Better yet, if god sent a lying spirit, how can it be said that he was not involved with deception?

I can't say enough how much this series opened my eyes. I am so excited for my new outlook on life. This is the greatest thing I have ever had the pleasure of seeing.

[holysinecure]

@smoothintentions Thank you for watching. We hope to be producing again as time allows.

Hold the phone...god can't lie?

If god can't lie, then some higher power is preventing him from doing so. Which means, he's not all-powerful.

Either that, or he's lying when he says he can't lie.

So, either god can't be trusted, or he isn't god.

Nice choice.

Contd- I don't argue Against God in the same way I don't argue with someone who thinks the Moon is made of cheese.

[paramattic70]

The existence of God is not even a worthy argument. As a child I was raised Christian. I became an Atheist when I actually read the Bible. I didn't have to spend all my energy defending it and justifying it's cruelty. I was able to read it without being told that god is love or forcing myself to agree. There is no way of justifying, metaphorically or contextually smashing a baby against a rock(psalms 137). Arguing is a pure waste of time. Just the same I wouldn't argue with someone who thought

Christians defend this monster. They even justified him sending lying spirits.

There's nothing wrong with fairy stories...as long as people don't claim they're THE INSPIRED WORD OF GOD.

No kidding. It's the fact that people BELIEVE this bullshit, rather than take them as mythology, that is the WHOLE PROBLEM.

There is NOTHING good in the bible, save the 8 paragraphs I mentioned before and a few lines of fairly nice poetry. The rest is execrable. Torture porn and little else.

@vdizhoor

A mythological dickhead. No kidding.

Who the fuck cares who wrote it or why? Maybe people are masochists. No kidding.

The difference between the bible and Greek mythology is that NO ONE CLAIMS GREEK MYTHS ARE THE INSPIRED WORD OF GOD.

No kidding, if you can't tell the difference in the context of our modern world, then you're hopeless.

@middlekk

What do you mean "Just so" fable? Also, what's wrong with fairy tales? Or science fiction? Do you see value only in things that actually happened? Do you like Wizard of Oz? Is there any truth to it? Do you hate Star Wars, because its unreal too?

I think your beef is probably not with fiction but with the religious institutions, dogmas, creationist brainwashing, etc. I wonder if we had this conversation when Jehovah joined Zeus, would you find anything good in the Bible?
