Judging God

[other one]

Ah, but you don't understand, that's the worst pain you can inflect on a man....... and it's not pride that would be hurt, but that his woman disapproved...

Better he get wounded by me for disapproving of his lust of other women than to stand before God with this sin.

Don't you think?

there are better ways of dealing with it than voilence....

I don't approve of oggling anyone, but any kind of physical violence in a marriage is dangerous.

Sam, it's an expression. I've never been able to bring myself to hit anyone.

Oh, I guess I've known too many violent women in my life. I have a couple of aunts that would be common pracitce.

I'm sorry, Sam. I had no idea my exaggeration would be a sore spot to anyone.

Heh - there are times I would hit my brother in play and hurt my hand worse than I hurt him (if I hurt him at all)!

I have noticed that atheists bring judgement against God based on there personal morals.

God is not loving because he did x, y,z God is not good because, x, y, z. These are all statements based on a moral view point that their idea of God does not line up with.

So my question is where do atheists get the moral code to judge God by?

You know Isa. when We all stand before The Lord ... I am getting ready now because I believe it is not as we think formed from this place but how it is formed by those who have

already done so in His Word

Gen 18:1-5 Abraham

Ex 3:1-6 Moses

Deut 4:7-10 Israel

Isa 6:1-7 Isaiah

Lk 2:9-10 Shepherds

Act 3:3-9 Saul

Rev 22:6-15 John

Whether before God or those who have come directly from the presence of God so that His glory was upon them- the reaction is fear and instant obedience...

May we hear the quietness of this voice in these last days! Love Steven

The only way to judge God is by his own standards.

Ex 32:9-14

And the Lord said unto Moses, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked people: Now therefore let me alone, that my wrath may wax hot against them, and that I may consume them: and I will make of thee a great nation.And Moses besought the Lord his God, and said, Lord, why doth thy wrath wax hot against thy people, which thou hast brought forth out of the land of Egypt with great power, and with a mighty hand? Wherefore should the Egyptians speak, and say, For mischief did he bring them out, to slay them in the mountains, and to consume them from the face of the earth? Turn from thy fierce wrath, and repent of this evil against thy people. Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, thy servants, to whom thou swarest by thine own self, and saidst unto them, I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have spoken of will I give unto your seed, and they shall inherit it for ever. And the Lord repented of the evil which he thought to do unto his people.

That is not entirely accurate. There were civil laws that only applied to the nation of Israel under certain commandments. Not all of God's commandments were meant for all people for all time. Otherwise you should be required to adhere to the dietary commandments and keep the Seventh day Sabbath and a host of other commandments I don't think you would care to observe.

God is the same yesterday, today and tommorow.

I don't think I would like to live in a world where rebellious children and adulterers are stoned to death. If I would, I would move to Iran. If this is what Christianity proposes (who will throw the first stone, anyway?), then NO, thanks.And I am not aware that murders stop in countries where the death penalty is in place. Here in Sweden we have no such acts of punishement but we enjoy a pretty safe and happy life (at least we did before the Muslims came).You should come to visit and a have a look

If these things had been enforced for all of this time, it wouldn't matter to you because no one would know the difference.

(sigh) Please read post #12 where I deal with the issue and ignore post #17.

What an asinine thing to say! Maybe people should ignore what you post. My position is just as valid as yours. So k..............................

Well, I would say there is something seriously wrong when a woman encourages a man towards lust ("Lots of good looking blond girls.") and then supports her husband in his looking at other women that way.

I was just joking. I cannot believe you took me seriously...

There are some things I am sensitive to - same as how OtherOne was sensitive to my comment about slapping.
