I asked if He did what would you have to say?
A few of you made an effort by posting some really simple questions (the answers to which are found in the bible.) to which I pointed out the answers.
... And what did I get in return? Nothing.
Think about it you asked a question I provided a biblically based answer. Meaning you have God's thoughts on what you asked. Your responses? To ignore it and move on to a game you think you can win.
Wtf is wrong with this picture? You whine and ask why won't God hear you when You ask... Then when God's word is provided for the questions you have asked, you ignore it... So in that silence you all have your answers. God does not 'answer your questions/hear your prayers' because when the door is opened even for a little bit you ignored Him. He gave you 'x' and you did nothing with it. So according to the parables of Christ what little you were given can be taken away and given to someone else.
Aside from loving God with all of out being we are told we are to be faithful to what we have been given. If God gives you x you are responsible for x. To use x.
To be honest I read your "what would you say?" as a rhetorical question which is why I merely responded with "I'd have a lot of questions."
Whilst the above is true - and I would do - I haven't actually formulated those questions directly in my mind as I tend not to prepare for things I regard as seriously unlikely.
On the other hand - shouldn't God know my questions anyway - possibly better than I do? He could start by answering them before they have been asked. I'd be happy to sit and listen for awhile.
