Thread: How was church today?

Sounds pretty fucking twisted to me.

nope he is a just God and loving God. Once Adam disobeyed God, man was separated from him by sin.
Only thru Jesus can you be with God again.

By that theory we can have 2 scenarios.

1. I could be a "saint". I could donate to charity, help out people who are sick and never commit a crime, but i don't accept jesus, so i go to hell (because as the bible teaches, you don't get into heaven on good deeds alone). Or..

2. I am a serial killer and rapist for most of my life. Then on my death bed, i ask jesus for forgiveness and i get into heaven.

Neither of those sound very "just" to me. Not to mention my last point of kids suffering with things like cancer. Also doesn't sound very "loving" to me

And I'll pick just one verse of many from the bible, which proves that god is actually quite violent

Joshua 6 verse 21 -They devoted the city to the lord and destroyed with the sword every living thing in it—men and women, young and old, cattle, sheep and donkeys.

I don't believe he is real. But if he is, I'm sure he could lift anything mate

the thief on the cross next to Jesus believed at the end and Jesus said you will be with me in paradise today. We’re all human and capable of some sick shit. ALL OF US. The thing is if you believe and ask Jesus to be your Lord and Savior it will transform you from the inside out. God’s Holy Spirit will reside in you. We can’t do some things on are on. That’s why we have his Holy Spirit in us to help us be more like Jesus. The verse you read in Joshua was about the Israelites taken the land from another people. Their promised land. They were chosen by God to keep his law. Jesus came and fulfilled the law. God in the Old Testament was about the law. God was made flesh in the New Testament and SAVED us from it.
