Should be remembered that God would rather have Spiritual Beings (humans and angels) have free-will with the possibility of evil than to have no free-will and no evil.(October 6, 2017 at 2:03 pm)snowtracks Wrote: What determines one's eternity is acceptance or rejections of the offer of Salvation. God's nature doesn't allow for torment, the anguish in Hell (after Judgement) is self-imposed. Everyone see evidence of God's works of creation so that's not the issue, the issue is sin; the new creation will be a sin-free, but the really good part is that those who choose salvation will have free will without the possibility of sinning.
Why didn't god make this, creation sin free? The omniscient god knew Adam and Eve would eat the magic apple before he even created them, and the omnipresent god stood there and watched them do it, why? And why did god put the serpent in the garden, he knew exactly what the little shit was going to tell them. God set them up, they were framed. Even the O J Simpson jury would find him guilty.
My bold.
Atheist Credo: A universe by chance that also just happened to admit the observer by chance.
