Your analogy only repersented 1/2 of what is being discussed. If that is all you understand fine, but do not take offence when it is corrected to include the whole biblical account.
Quote:But you don't have what I want drich.....what I want in this story (I playing the role of satan) is control over your Heart and your mind. What you own is of little concern unless it can be used to help control or direct you.
Quote:Your god sounds slightly less unique and immenently less powerful all of a sudden.Good. Now maybe start building a biblicaly consistant picture of God and finish tearing down the one you have been carring around with you. (The one you have found to be untrue.)
Quote:You may be, I'm not.Then you have lived a life without sin? For everytime you sin you eat another 'apple.' Remember Adam's sin was not physicaly eating an apple it was disobeying God. Which is exactly what you do each and everytime you sin.
Quote:Godman gets fatigued...meh, not worth the time. If your godman could see through it how tempting could it have been.I can see through it now, and even so with this ablity to see what God would expect me to endure, (Death on the cross and maybe even more) and what satan offered, it is still a temptation one that I do not know I would be able to resist.
Quote:Sure, I don't ask people what they pay for some gift they give me, but you don't have to ask in this case - you've been told-, and if someone told me that they paid in scapegoating, I'd refuse the "gift". Love, no, there's no love there, if someone is offering me that.Then that is between you and God to reconsile. Because i can not make you see love where love abounds. Maybe God has harden your heart to love till you humble yourself and ask to see it.
