Why do you keep glossing over this part?
Because it’s a long story to leading up to that point and then I few more events happened in the following weeks to even strengthen the moment of what happened.

You at least have to see the irony of you being 100% positive if your beliefs, while ridiculing others for the same thing.

So then since you disappear into nothingness when you die , your life means nothing ? Why be good , why care? I believe your life has great meaning!!! “Then he said to them all, ‘if anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up the cross daily, and follow Me.” Luke 9:23 NKJV( hope is all well with you my friend, crazy times ! God is shutting it all down , getting the attention of the whole world. Never seen a time like this. He's wanting his creation to get back to a true relationship with him . Not sports( and I love sports) addictions , lust, greed, idols, and self love. He's shown me during this time come to me . Anyone can be like the world, that's easy , it takes someone being BORN AGAIN like Jesus said in John 3:3 to be able to enter heaven . Church has nothing to do with any of this . The creator wants to come live inside his creation and change the hearts (circumcision of the heart) the world needs to repent and ask for forgiveness and return to the Lord. We all have sinned no one can claim they haven't. No one is good not one. Have we ever lied , have we ever stolen anything!!! Have we ever used his name as a cuss word . ( that's Called blashemey) have we ever looked at a women with lust? Not the act of adultry, just the thought !!! Then God sees us as a lying , thieving , blasphemous, adulteress at heart ! We definitely are not a good person. The Bible says no liar , no thief, no adulterer will enter the kingdom of heaven. Some say well I haven't killed no one . Jesus says if you have ever hated someone you have the heart of a murderer. We are all in trouble every last one of us !!!!! But 2000 years ago God became human flesh in the person Christ Jesus and died for everyone of those sins . His last words on the cross were "It is finished "!!!!! The debt has been paid. He takes all your rottenness (sin) and gives you all his righteousness ( you are made perfect in his sight) he pays the price or you do? I'll let him do it !!!?? so talk to God tell him you need him and repent , turn from your sin and trust him like you trust a parachute ??. And the minute you do this if you mean it and don't play a hippocrite , he will give you new heart and new desires and then the king of all creation will come make his home in your HEART not a building. And you then become BORN AGAIN!!! Well love ya all!!!! Call or text me anytime and seek him . Peace ??

Amen brother and congratulations on your salvation.
I had unfortunately strayed away for a while when I was going through some medical issues and lost my SO a few years back and she was in her early thirties. I was angry for a little while but I’ve been rebuilding my relationship with God. I will admit I need to do much better about getting back into the word and reading scriptures.
Things really could be so much worse (I know people hate hearing this) but I mean it. I’m blessed to have an amazing job, I’m finally in remission, my mother, brothers, sister in laws, nieces and nephews are healthy and we are a tight knit family. God has just been so good to us.
I believe 100% we as a country, will come out the other end of all this and put things back together quick. It’s been amazing seeing people spend time with their families like I’ve witnessed recently. The nuclear family needs to become a staple again. Financially I’m curious to see how the bounce back will be. I think we will see an economic boom of epic proportions in the next 10-18 months. I hope as a country America becomes more dependent on Americans instead of other countries.
Just keep you’re head up and plugging away, folks. Things are going to be ok.

Now you’re getting it! We exist for one reason. To keep the species going. That is our drive. That is our purpose.

Society benefits from a population with a moral compass. Like I said, the Bible and other religious texts are wonderful sources on moral code and how one should behave to better society.
But at the end of the day, society, and religion, are simply a thin veil for reality. We are animals. We exist to frick. We live. We die. The world moves on.

So hitlers society said it was morally good to excite Jews ! Was that good ? Who defines good you? Government? So who judged what’s good?
Posted on 4/4/20 at 1:04 pm to tankyank13
Who gave you that same authority? Who are you to judge me?
Posted on 4/4/20 at 1:07 pm to prattalumni
No ones judging you? I’m asking where does your morality come from? Cause if it comes from society history shows us we are very flawed

IMO it's not so much a plan but a purpose. The plan is the vehicle to achieve the purpose. I believe that it's someone's time to die only after they have completed their purpose. Some missions are short and some are long. God doesn't cause death, he allows it because the person has completed their purpose. The purpose could be as simple as saying something or doing something that sets the intended on their destined path. I believe God puts people in the path of others (the plan) to help them complete their purpose.
For example, a storm causes the power to go out and a man wakes up later than usual. As he walks out of his house he notices a child chasing a ball in the street. He also notices a car coming down the street. He races to the child and pushes him out of the way. The man is hit by the car and dies, but saved the child. If the power hadn't gone out the man would have already left for work and wouldn't have been there to save the child. IMO the power outage was the plan and saving the child was the purpose. It's all about perspective. Christians walk by faith because we are not all knowing.
You can ask all day long, "why do children die" and the question will never be answered for those that are left behind. It's not our purpose; It was theirs and they alone will be answered. Perhaps you should seek your answers from God himself. You don't have to believe in him to seek answers, but you do have to ask with a sincere heart. Of course, you have to be willing to hear him.

Whatever I decide.
Good is fluid.
Murder is bad, but if I went back in time and murdered hitler before he rose to power am I bad?
