Then I proceeded to ask a series of questions that got me thinking...

What if He did ask us...

What if..

Every Soul on this planet elected to be here. what if we begged and pleaded to be here for this chance to prove ourselves. or rather to re prove ourselves as loyal to God?

When Lucifer fell from Heaven he did not goto Hell. He fell on Earth, and 1/3 of heaven's population fell with him. Traditional dogma identifies these fallen "angels" as Demons.

My question is what if 'we' are those fallen? In that We have been falling from heaven in every generation since Adam? What if we Begged to have our minds wiped and placed on trial here for a 'life time' to prove that we/our hearts are worthy and will choose God if given the chance?!? That we would turn and rebuke the deceptive teachings of lucifer who tricked us into following him in heaven orginally? Maybe that is why so many bad things happen here, because we live/Are a brood of Demons, who have been given one last chance to seek salvation/forgiveness of our sins... Someone of us really want that forgiveness while others want to create a hell on earth! To live in a world without God.

That is a spooky thought, but I guess it really does not change anything, other than answer the question why or how God can justify an eternity in hell for one life time of sins.. Answer: our sins are not limited to one life time.

Drich, that little exercise u just did....man has been doing since forever...what if?...why?....how? and the next thing u know we have a religion starting.....Oooooor they take an already established religion ...say "what if" ...i take this piece of scripture...and a little piece of that scripture and whalall...another denomination starting or more dogma......This is why since a young adult I have never paid any attention to this MAN MADE CLAP TRAP.

EXAMPLE:

The Mormons took this:

2 Corinthians 12:2
King James Version (KJV)
" I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth such an one caught up to the third heaven."

<<<< and a couple other pieces of scripture and worked on it and worked on it came up with this >>>>>

nice...huh....bet that's all "crazy talk"......right??? and from what I gather even us atheist's get into momon heaven where we can deny christ face to faceConfused Fall
.....after all you biblical studies and your still asking "what if"...i thought all the answers were in there.....is it not clear enough Thinking
