Is God Cruel?

[goodlife]

THE BIBLE SAYS: God said: “I take delight, not in the death of the wicked one, but in that someone wicked turns back from his way and actually keeps living.” (Ezekiel 33:11)

Well it shows that people don’t know their Bible.

[goodlife]

What do we see here,ridicule. Well you think ridicule may be deserved and well justified. A person who does not exercise foresight or who neglects good counsel may take a foolish course that makes him the object of ridicule.

Well apostle Paul warns of the more serious danger that attends an attempt to mock God, that is, the danger that comes to one who thinks that the principles of God’s administration can be treated with contempt or can successfully be evaded.

“For if anyone thinks he is something when he is nothing, he is deceiving his own mind. . . . Do not be misled: God is not one to be mocked. For whatever a man is sowing, this he will also reap; because he who is sowing with a view to his flesh will reap corruption from his flesh, but he who is sowing with a view to the spirit will reap everlasting life from the spirit.”—Ga 6:3-8.

So as none of you believe the Bible
on showing no accepting of the undeserved kindness of God and want to missing its purpose and is treating God’s instruction as contemptible.

He is deceive himself into thinking that he is safe. Nevertheless, God knows your heart and will judge you accordingly.

At the end of day the Bible was not written for nothing.

All because you don’t know your Bible.

Stuck eh, Goodlife. ;o)

Mikey, he did once say he’s Chinese. Could have just been his little joke though. :o)

[mikey4444]

Oh sorry naomi...you woke me up ! I wish GL no harm but its of some indifference to me what nationality he is to be honest. Its not worth debating with him or her or it.

[naomi24]

Mikey, I only mentioned it because you asked. Sweet dreams. ;o)

[jomifl]

Dammit Naomi, I thought I was coming over all omniscient too :o)
The starting of nearly every sentence with 'well' is a bit of a linguistic clue. just as Russians almost always say 'nyah' before speaking( not that I have met many)

He doesn't live in China as the authorities would have arrested him a long time ago for the garbage that he spews out.

The answer to the question is yes, particularly in HK, Beijing and Shanghai.

[naomi24]

DT, he said we're time wasters. Perhaps he's giving up.

[DTCwordfan]

Perhaps he was one of them that turned up at my door on a Sunday afternoon in Hong Kong.

The ex and I had had a late night followed by a heavy lunch, so an afternoon nap was in order. She was in the main bedroom and I closed the curtains in the living room. 30 minutes in and knock, knock.

I opened the door to be greeted by four (young) Chinese. "Ah, we Jeehovars witneshhis."

The ex said it was hilarious hearing my rant from the bedroom. An imperious,
"How disgraceful is this. How disgraceful indeed, the very fact that you are out canvassing on God's Sabbath, his day of rest. This is a God-fearing house, a Methodist one, and if you know about that, it's chapel twice in the day, no work, the only book the bible and toys also of a biblical nature. And curtains should be closed as behind me. Now cease immediately and return home to repent and offer your please for Mercy to him."

With this, they turned and scarpered as I closed the door - never another JW visit in the time that we were there, as we probably got some mark to warn fellow canvassers off.

I believed in a caring and compassionate God until, at a fairly young age, I read about the parasitic wasp and then saw a zebra being eaten alive. If he is kind his kindness certainly doesn't seem to extend to the animal kingdom.

[nailit]

And dont forget tigerlelly, he drowned every animal on the planet except the ones on Noahs floating zoo. Very compassionate...

[naomi24]

Goodlife, who are you accusing of lying - and why don't you stick to English?

@ goodlife

I am still waiting for your answer to my simple question. Do you kill your children if they are disobedient as advised in the Bible?

goodlife //All because you don’t know your Bible. //

As has been pointed out before, it is not our Bible but yours.

However I do agree with this:
//For if anyone thinks he is something when he is nothing, he is deceiving his own mind. //

Your religion is an ancient myth invented by people who didn't know better. You are most certainly deceived.

It must be a *** big wasp. Thanks god it's in Africa.

Not been reading enough Watchtower. In Jehovah's paradise all the lions become vegetarian.
