How amazing is God's Forgiveness? Not very.

God established the physical laws of the universe, then some moral laws. And decided that the penalty for disobedience would be death, and that he would not forgive any transgression at all.
But he didn't like the outcome. Everybody deserved to die.
So rather than just forgiving, like any decent human being could do, he decided that he really wanted someone to die, so he murdered someone who didn't deserve it, which made him happy, so now he can forgive us, and we are meant to thank him for it.

Christians like to be amazed at God's power to save us. And to be eternally grateful for saving us.

But he's only saving us from himself. Are we meant to be grateful for God just not changing his mind, but insisting instead that he gets a death sentence?

He sacrificed himself to himself to save us from himself. We are meant to view it as mercy, when what it really is is stubborn obstinance, and, rather an absolute UNwillingness to forgive. There had to be death. Coz God said so.



It is ridiculous and this video is an analogy of this amazingly rigid and bizarre rules-punishment-"mercy" mock-up.

Arrah, and sure begorrah and bejaysus, but 'tis wonderful indeed.

And may the good lawd shave your hole and grant you the wisdom to know that the difference between a woman in a bath and a nun is that the nun has her soul full of hope.

Praise be to the All Might Be Magic Man.

@shellbellbutterfly "Jesus says to not condemn (as u do)."

LMFAO did you know that Jesus said he will condemn/destroy? SO if someone says not to do something but then does it themselves........does that not make them a hypocrite? If Jesus is a hypocrite yet warned you to not be like the pharisees Luke 12:1 who were hypocrites then didnt Jesus also warn you to stay away from him since he to is a hypocrite?

@sean32laf No "delusion" or blasphemous claim of ruling anything. He is all powerful & Almighty. He wins. I love being on His team! Goodness & love is always better than wickedness & evil-& moreover, it rules! ;-) I'd love to meet u & let u SEE 4 urself. If u like being blind, opposing & condemning people, it wouldn't work anyway. That means one is walking closely with the enemy (satan/wickedness) & either likes feeding the wicked flesh, or needs to take a stand (choose) against it-that's all.

@sean32laf All Christians who truly follow Jesus have a "Holy Mission" to wake everybody up...(I was sleeping too-as a religious Carnal Christian). I couldn't feel/know Him because of my sin/disobedience & man-made religion getn in the way. I didn't understand. I got tired of it (it wasn't working) & asked Him to show me. The Bible/Jesus promises & delivers (John 14) the Holy Spirit & people DO SEE Him in me! I am only a vessel. No/little power without Him. Jesus says to not condemn (as u do).

@shellbellbutterfly perhaps you will try to sacrifice your son like Abraham and then convince yourself it was a test and you passed because the voices suddenly said no to it when you were getting ready to gut him out on an alter to "God.How far will you go for "faith"?If you even go as far as Abraham do you really still think of yourself as a SANE person?In reality your a nutter,psychotic,schizophrenic lunatic and it was faith that led you to it because you dont rely on truth

[sean32laf]

@shellbellbutterfly The next step of your delusion will be to beleive you are given a holy mission by God himself (you may already be at this step) and then further down the rabbit hole of faith you will beleive you are even Jesus himself or an Angel or some other imaginary being that claims to be like everyone else but sits themselves to be rulers , blessers, or condemners over those who dont share the delusion..... How far will you go to make imaginary things real?

@BERZERKER It's so Awesome to be me! :-D Sad & sorry for u that ur so angry & lacking peace & love. I'll pray for u too-but I will never "shut up". :-) People find joy/the Lord in my so-called "drivel". Cuz I'm telling the Truth. One can't deny His Awesomeness when it comes over & works thru a person-& they know it! Sorry ur so blind & proud. Maybe ur really against Him. I pray not-or in reality, it wud b terrible to b u, more than it already is. May God lift the veil from ur heart to SEE. }1{
