We’re not talking about black horses @Hibernate. And we’re not talking about what claiming God is “pride, lust ANYTHING he invented but we do not say”.
We’re talking about what God said about himself, in his own words. He said “I the lord your God, who’s name is Jealous” as one of the Ten Commandments way before John. He did not say, “who’s name is Love”.
@Hibernate “It’s hard for anyone to explain what’s Love [ God ] to you since you twist anything we use as arguments.”
I quoted scripture. I played by your rules. My comments are untwisting the twisted logic that some use to equate an action with a personage.
@Hibernate “Do you believe in God ?”
Who’s God?
@Hibernate “Do you have a REAL and personal relation with Jesus ?”
Not the one that you think you know.
@Hibernate “Do you think He died for your particular sins so you can be saved ?”
Saved from what? God either chose me or he didn’t, right? So by your standards, I’m in or out regardless of my perceived sin or what Jesus did? It’s God’s choice remember? Why would I need saving if God already made the choice?
@Hibernate “Do you repent each day from your sins ?”
My busy schedule only allows me to repent on the weekends. I wouldn’t get any work done otherwise. “Sorry kids, I can’t go to the ball game now. I’ve got some repenting to do! Have fun without me!”
@Hibernate “Do you believe grace is enough ?”
If I did, then why should I be concerned with repentance or God’s choice? Obviously grace isn’t enough if I must still repent for my sins and take whatever choice God dishes out for me.
@Hibernate “If you answered YES then I do not need to explain why God is love.”
With all this acceptance, faith, repentance, and beating myself with sack cloth, where is the love exactly?
@Hibernate “Atheist are born from God if one accepts the creation theory if not he came from monkeys by evolution.”
I’m really confused now. Are you telling me that accepting “the creation theory” is the final determination of whether a human was “born from God” or “came from monkeys by evolution”?

What is the fate of the Atheist, who enjoys the company of multiple loose young women, drinks, smokes, experiments with homosexuality from time to time, rejects the Christian concept of Jesus and God, but contributes most of his time and money to help those in need?
@Hibernate “If you answered NO then God did not choose you as His follower.”
Then what is my fate?
So why should anyone bother troubling themselves with all the requirements laid forth? What difference would it make to God’s choice for me? Certainly you aren’t suggesting that God can change his mind? If that’s so, then God could be Love on one day, and Jealousy the next.

Best answer ever @lawkes. I’m sure we know you from somewhere.
