GC Did that. No god showed up.
How do you know you did that, God will be convicting you of your sin before you can do what I posted. The scriptures show us the Father will first call you through conviction by the Holy Spirit and until you are called you will not have the contrite heart you need to receive His message.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

I know that because I was raised as a christian. God was a no show. There is not much more I could do. Your god simply couldn't be bothered to show up.

You have to want to receive him..and you can't properly want to receive him until he makes you so. He won't make you so until you want to receive him....however.
They've kept this up for thousands of years.......
Then and only then.... if you crack that nut somehow, will you be able to consult the spirits, like GC.

I've never seen God turn down someone who He has called and all will be called. You need to examine what went on during those past years and try an find out why you believe He didn't call.

How do you explain millions of believers dying even though they and everyone around them prayed to survive?

Everyone dies son, sin is the ultimate reason. God never promised we would live forever until we enter the next life.

So no matter how much a true believer prays not to die, God would kill them anyway if He wants to. Christianity claims that God has a perfect plan for anyone, then why are so many Christians praying to God for things?

Of course he didn't. Your God doesn't exist.

Funny how I've never seen 'sin' listed as an actual cause of death. One would think that if it was killing people it'd be detectable.
