What about God
« on: April 21, 2018, 07:40:43 pm »
do you believe in god? sometimes I do and sometimes I don't. I don't expect him to show up in the sky anything like that. religious will say study the bible .The old testament is full of bad stuff like how to treat your slaves.or if your child disobeys stone him or gay people should be put to death.Looked at the big bang idea where it just one minute happened but hard to understand. God could of started it all. I think its selfish to think god is working in your life... what about the woman starving in Africa who watchers her child die and can do nothing how is god working in her life.

Yes i believe in God.He has a name.Its Jehovah.It separates HIM from all the other false gods.There were no other gods before HIM or will be after Him.

He wont show up in the sky.He is a spirit.He told Moses no man can see me and live.It makes sense when you consider if he was able to make the sun how much more powerful must he look.

God didnt create slavery.Man did.He tried to regulate it in a just way.But in HIS kingdom it wont exist.

The gay life style is unnatural in Gods eyes and wont be tolerated in HIS kingdom.

God created the universe....Big Bang is nonsense.

God had nothing to do with all the misery in this world.Man disobeyed and an angel we call Satan has challeneged Jehovahs right to rule.Rebellion started in Eden and Satan also put up a challenege in book of Job that man will only serve you for selfish reasons.He doesnt really love you.God has allowed time to go off the clock to prove Satanic government and manmade rule apart from him doesnt work.You can see the results over the course of time.

Jesus was sent to earth as a man to prove the devil a liar and die as a perfect man to balance the scales of justice when A&E started the human race on the wrong path.

The bible backs all this up.These are NOT my opinions.

JW.org is a great site to get answers to questions about life,death,God etc.

Thank you

1 very good point as well.Remember after A&E sinned if he destroyed them right away the human race wouldnt exist.Jehovah knew some would love him and appreciate his rulership.He allowed A&E to have offspring.And he sent Jesus to represent HIM and die the sacrificial death.

Satan has blinded this world with false religeon.The bible refers to it as Babylon the Great in book of Revelation...the last book in bible.We are living in the last days of this Satanic world and soon God will replace it with HIS kingdom with Jesus as king.

It makes all the sense in the world to see the way this world is why would a loving god be a part of it.Jesus said my kingdom is no part of this world and friendship with this world is enmity with God.

Yet Satan blinds many with nationalism as an example.

Of course I believe in God. I also believe that Jesus came to earth and died to pay for the sins of the ones who would believe in him, including me.  :angel11: A world without God would be a pitiable thing.  :sad1:

I'm looking forward to heaven when I die.  :star: Amen and 'nuff said.

Let your kingdom come on earth as it is in heaven

He says that he “did not create [the earth] simply for nothing, but formed it to be inhabited.” (Isaiah 45:18) ... The Bible answers: “The righteous will possess the earth, and they will live forever on it.”​—Psalm 37:29 .

Yes,Jesus was first-born of ALL creation.Thats why he is referred to as a "begotten son"....directly created by His father Jehovah and used as his fathers master worker in creation.

EX:Let US make man in Gods image.Note US is plural.

God has blessed us with Free Will. So God doesn't promise us there will never be pain or disappointment. But he is there to help us through our difficulties if we put our faith in Him.

Jesus was not a creation of God. He is a part of the trinity. He always existed being with the Father. As John describes it "In the beginning there was the Word. And the Word was with God. And the Word was God".

Now I know you well enough by now to know you won't accept anything the Watchtower doesn't teach (and they deny the trinity).

And I'm sure you'll point out the term 'Trinity' isn't in the Bible, but concept is.  Jesus says "I and the Father are One." Jesus accepts worship and so forth. Calling Him a "creation" is an insult to His divinity.

Jesus proved he was mortal in not only was he born.....but he also died as a man.Jehovah IS the Alpha and Omega.......never had a beginning or will have an ending.Jesus always identified his father as God.

Col 1:15...First born of all creation.Jesus again was mortal.......he died!!!And it took his father to resurrect him to live again!!

I and the father are one in the sense they have the same justice and love etc.Just as a son and father can be the same as humans.Afterall Jesus did say his father was greater then i in the sense that HE is GOD!!Never once does Jesus claim to be God.But Jehovah through-out bible does and says there were noo other gods before HIM and he IS GOD and will NOT share that.Jesus represents his father.

As i told you before with manmade judges on earth when you stand before them you stand before God...NOT the man in the sense of he represents justice and love.If his ways are NOT the same as Gods then he doesnt represent him.Everything Jesus did represented his father thats why he said they were one.

https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/d/r1/lp-e/102000250

You said it yourself,"trinity isnt in the bible"...and it isnt!!!Take the time to read the link.Even when bible backs up the truth many are still ignorant as was shown in Jesus day when they still questioned him and eventually killed him.

As the bible explains the truth is like a double edge sword and discerns the inclination of the heart.

And might i add...what do you think Gods "begotten son"means???Shows Jesus was DIRECTLY created by Jehovah.The rest of creation Jesus ws Gods master worker.Let US create man.

Cant be any more plainer.

“If you loved me, you would rejoice that I am going my way to the Father, because the Father is greater than I am.” (John 14:28) Jesus acknowledged that he and his Father are not equals.

▪ “I am ascending to my Father and your Father and to my God and your God.” (John 20:17) Jesus did not speak of himself as God but spoke of God as a separate Person.

▪ “I have not spoken out of my own impulse, but the Father himself who sent me has given me a commandment as to what to tell and what to speak.” (John 12:49) Jesus’ teachings did not come from him; they came from the Father.

God created the universe....Big Bang is nonsense.



I'm going to offer my opinion on this, which you make take or leave, but my belief is that God created the universe and that the 'big bang" was HIS method of creation. Science and religion do not have to be the "either or" proposition that so many people try to make it.  Likewise, creation (through evolution) is still creation by God.


It is ironic to me that the Big Bang Theory was actually first proposed by a Catholic priest and was initially rejected by science as being too spiritual.
