From your view, have you ever disagreed with any of your god's decisions or actions? You know, like hell, and some things that can be considered sin. Have you ever disagreed or saw faults with anything?
Ok, sounds completely fair to me. I actually prefer when things are kept civil, it becomes difficult on here sometimes though.
I think it is part of man’s fallen nature to disagree with God’s commandments and laws, so yes I would say that I do catch myself doing that. Or I find myself behaving in a manner that is contrary to God’s decreed will. When I realize I do this though, I try my best to conform my desires and thoughts to His will. There are certain things in scripture I do not understand, there are times I feel that election seems unfair, but then I realize that my concept of fairness is completely arbitrary and I need to conform it to what God tells me is fair. Since I became a Reformed Christian (a conversion that was fueled by my discussions with atheists) though scripture does make far more sense to me and the God of the Old Testament does not seem like a completely different God from the God of the New Testament like He used to.
Thanks for the question Ace, it was a good one.
