Even atheist like me turn to God! WHEN HES REAL! HE WILL MAKE SURE TRUMPS SECOND TERM COMES! Through all of you faithfull pedes, i cant believe i type this, but BLESS YOU ALL!
I'm agnostic and have no problems with God but is it really free will if you're allowed to do what you want but you'll burn in hell for eternity if you do? Isn't that manipulation?
It's a very good question, one of the difficult topics about the Christian faith.
There are many thoughts out there but I can give you my perspective for what it's worth. My understanding of God is that He created the world and sustains it. Every good thing we experience ultimately comes from Him. But He was not interested in a creation that would just do everything He wanted, He gave us a choice. We first chose to sin, and this separated us from Him. He is absolutely Holy and cannot tolerate sin or evil. So He sent His Son to die as an intermediary, that if we accept Him we are then justified before Him once more.
That's the groundwork. So if we don't accept Him on this earth, when we truly have a choice (won't be much of a choice when we are standing before Him in heaven), then we will be eternally separated. That eternal separation is Hell, and it's so terrible because we are completely separated from kindness and goodness and love. All that is left is despair and hatred and bitterness. I don't know how literal the flames are, but it's absolutely a horrible place regardless because it lacks Him.
I spent many years in medical school and during training doubting my faith. I just recently came back, after reading about the Shroud of Turin of all things on conservapedia lol. I did some of my own research and I am convinced.
Plenty of Christian North Korean defectors and underground Christians in North Korea. Suffering of varying degrees is universal in this world. The point is that it doesn't have to be permanent if you use the fruits of it as a grace toward your salvation.
You can't have the ups without the downs. We're going to come out of this with another Trump term,widespread corruption exposed and dealt with, and more people than ever with more pride for their country than ever. God always has a plan.
No; mankind (actually WOMEN) fucked it all up for us back in the garden of Eden.
We were given a literal paradise and all we had to do was not touch ONE FUCKING TREE, but bitch couldn't keep her damn mouth shut.
Had to go & listen to a freakin' snek of all things.
Satan didn't even disguise himself as a puppy or a kitten; a freakin' SNAKE made woman throw away paradise.
Our punishment for not heeding God's instructions at the Garden of Eden is that we were sentenced to a hard, rough life, filled with work, toil, pain and misery.
Lots of joy to be sure, but lots of pain & hassle too.
I apologize if my post offended, as that was not my intent.
I'm simply stating the biblical and historical truth that woman accepted the fruit of the forbidden tree and caused she and Adam to be cast out of the Garden of Eden and condemned to a lifetime of toil, pain, and suffering as punishment for disobeying God.
Men sure as fuck ain't perfect...not by a long shot. :-)

We have free will, some choose that to do evil, but He respects our free will.
