but why did God kill


Think for a second.

From God’s perspective, what does the end of one’s life on Earth mean?

So serial killers who say God told them to kill aren’t really sinning then?

Since God told them to and all.

Do you really think being silly should be your weapon of choice?

So you won’t answer the question? Got it. Because you know it’s hypocrisy.

There are some NDE accounts of experiences of Hell. Howard Storm is an example. If they are accurate, then you do not want to end up in Hell.

The New Testament has two commandment 's . Love your neighbor, forgive him when he screws up.


Jesus was asked which of the commandments was most important and he stated the 1st commandment far beyond all the others.

Mathew
quote:

37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

For Believers this ^^^ makes perfect sense, because if you love the Lord thy God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength you will naturally try to please the Lord by walking in the Light.

Why did a man destroy the ants in the anthill? The concept of life and death is undoubtedly very different to a God that creates life and understands what follows death compared to our ant level view. We are stuck in life for now and have an incomplete and one sided understanding of life and death. However we are commanded ourselves not to commit murder and to love thy neighbor. Faith for the rest until all is revealed.

I think this is important because God is the perfection of pure light. Light and dark cannot exist together. They must be separate. Our lives of light or dark are contained in our souls. The more light in our lives the closer to the joy of God after life. Of course, that is assuming faith.

This is just false and definitely not from God. God is very clear that once you are in Hell...you are there for good and there is no coming back

I noticed that too. I personally do not believe the Storm made up or embellished his experience. Also the fruit of the experience was good as he converted from agnostic to becoming a minister. So some possibilities would be:

1. He had not actually entered hell but was on a journey to hell and proclaimed faith before entering or before complete death. Storm was revived.
2. Is it possible that faith proclaimed after death results in salvation? If I understand correctly, the bible states faith in Christ is necessary for salvation but it never states when. So is it possible to accept Christ after death? Then there is the rich man asking for water but did not receive it but did he ever claim faith?
3. ????

If that's your take then I'm guessing the pills you're pushing aren't the kind that require 8 years of post-secondary education.
