God does indeed kill people, he is the Lord and can pretty much do whatever he wants. He can send people to hell, make people sin and punish them for the sins he made the person commit. Basically he is God and he can do whatever he wants. Like I said above many people refuse to acknowledge that God can kill. It is pretty clear in the bible that God does kill people, and I want to show some examples of these. I'm not only doing this to show God does kill, I know and believe he does kill people but I only just started getting into the bible so this is for my benefit of learning the various ways of God killing people.


It is pretty obvious that God isnt always nice, in fact it is stated he is angry at the wicked people everyday.
God is a just judge, And God is angry with the wicked every day.” Psalm 7:11
This verse clearly shows, that God can be an angry God which signal's if he gets enough anger he will kill to show his message. The first thing that stands out to me is the flood that happened in Genesis(the first book of the bible).


In Genesis God became angry at the wicked and decided to create a flood that would destroy everything on earth. In Chapter 6 of Genesis, God notices that the wickedess of men was great and started to become sorry he created man. Actually here are the full verses that show what happened, and on why God became angry at this


5 Then the Lord[a] saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.6 And the Lord was sorry that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart. 7 So the Lord said, “I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth, both man and beast, creeping thing and birds of the air, for I am sorry that I have made them.” Genesis 6:5-7


If the Psalm 7:11 verse was not enough to show that God gets angry at the wicked, then the verse about Genesis 6:5-7 should. If not then you should keep reading. Basically what happens next is that God lets a man named Noah, build a ship and take two of everything. But that's not what's important right here though. God created a flood and it wiped out all the living flesh. All the animals that went with Noah survived. But if you still don't believe that God kills here are verses of what God's word says about the flood
22 All in whose nostrils was the breath of the spirit[a] of life, all that was on the dry land, died. 23 So He destroyed all living things which were on the face of the ground: both man and cattle, creeping thing and bird of the air. They were destroyed from the earth. Only Noah and those who werewith him in the ark remained alive.Genesis 7:22-23
I couldn't find an exact number on how many people God killed from the flood but Moah did live and thats why we still have life here. I still imagine God is still killing wicked people everyday. I still have three more things that should stand out to people that God does indeed kill.


There are other events that can mirror this, though not as deadly. God kills for many reasons such as to send messages out to people, or when he is angry. There are floods every year and some of them can range from minor to deadly. Some deadly floods include 1931 China flood(up 4 million people estimated to die) and 1887 Yellow River Flood(about 900,000 people killed. Those are only two examples of deadly floods, there are many more. But the key is that God is still killing people by flooding environments to send a message.


God can also make animals go after and kill people. God usually likes the vicious animals to do this like Bears or lions. In one case there was this group of of youths forty two of them actually. What these forty two youths were doing were mocking a bald man. The bald man turned around a pronounced a curse on them in the name of the lord. What happened was this
24 So he turned around and looked at them, and pronounced a curse on them in the name of the Lord. And two female bears came out of the woods and mauled forty-two of the youths.”2 Kings 2:24
basically the lord heard the curse, and God sent two bears out and well basically he killed forty two youths. There is also a case in which God used lions to kill people see 2 Kings 17:25-26 for more.


Outside of the bible there are more events of animals killing humans, mainly because God did it. In March of 2013, a lion attacked and killed a 24 year old zoo intern. In 2010, a 63 year old hiker was killed by a mountain goat. In 2010, a Bulldog killed an 18 month old baby. Yes I know most people are going to say animal attacks are not God killing. But those people deny that God kills, and if you read more into the bible you will see that God has more animal attacks killing people.




You think you are safe from being killed from blaspheming the lord? Think again because the third way God has killed, was for punishing someone who committed blasphemy. What happened in Leviticus 24, a woman's son started to curse the lord which is blaspheming. God told Moses to bring that child outside of the camp and have him be stoned to death. The kid was stoned to death in verse 23.
Then Moses spoke to the children of Israel; and they took outside the camp him who had cursed, and stoned him with stones. So the children of Israel did as the Lord commanded Moses.” Leviticus 24:23


Outside of the bible there are two other cases in Britain that I found in which people were put to death for Blasphemy. Since God kills, he put these two people to death for blasphemy. The first person I found was Edward Wightman. Edward Wightman was sentenced to death for attacking Christianity in several accusations. See his Wikipedia page(make sure its not a vandalized version of it!), for the list of the thirteen charges that were brought up to him. His death was by burning. The other person sentenced to death in Britain(which is also the last time someone got executed for blasphemy in Britain) was Thomas Aikenhead. He was sentenced to death for a variety of things like ridiculing the scriptures, and of course blasphemy. He was sentenced to death by the means of being hung.


I also want to add this about blasphemy. Blasphemy is an unforgivable sin, that brings you down to hell under no circumstances. But the reason why I am adding this is because false “teacher” Billy Graham says it is a forgivable sin, I say this because Billy Graham says this “In other words, the only sin God can't forgive is the sin of rejecting Christ. But why reject Him any longer? God's promise is for you: "Whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life" (John 3:18). Commit your life to Him today.” Billy also says this “Yes, Jesus said only one sin couldn't be forgiven, and that was "blasphemy against the Spirit" (Matthew 12:31). But what does it mean to blaspheme the Spirit? I have studied Jesus' words very carefully, and it simply means this: To deny the Holy Spirit's witness to Jesus.


What Billy Graham is doing here is twisting the bible, clearly he is wrong as the bible states that blasphemy is an unforgivable sin depending on the context.
Therefore I say to you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemyagainst the Spirit will not be forgiven men.” Matthew 12:31


Now this person who wrote to Billy Graham is indeed going to hell because he asks “I know I'm going to hell when I die because I've blasphemed the Holy Spirit.” Billy Graham lied to this person saying he studied Jesus words very closely, because in fact he didn’t. Graham is also going to to hell for lying and being a false teacher. But basically if you blasphemy the Holy Spirit then you are going to hell no matter what as its an unforgivable sin.




Complaining is a sin, and God can kill for that as well. The fourth and final way I am writing about how God has killed people, is that God can kill by burning people to death. In Numbers chapter 11 it begins with people complaining, and God heard them and it displeased them. Basically God put those people who were complaining on fire, and some of them burnt to death. Not all of them burnt to death because Moses was there to pray and have the fire be put out. The actual verse where it shows they complained and God reacted can be found in the first verse of Chapter 11 of Numbers.
Now when the people complained, it displeased the Lord; for the Lord heard it, and His anger was aroused. So the fire of the Lord burned among them, and consumed some in the outskirts of the camp.” Numbers 11:1


God can and will kill people who complain, it is a sin to complain and it is one of the reasons why he is angry at the wicked everyday. God tries to send his message to people, that complaining makes him mad by killing some people who complain like he did in Numbers chapter 11. If you don't want to get killed by complaining the best thing to do is not commit the sin by complaining and just obey God in every way you can. It will make him happy, and not mad at you like he is with the wicked everyday.


I have only written four ways God has can killed(well five if you count the lion and the bear incident). But my point here is that God does indeed kill and well many people don't want to accept that. I mean most people will think God is nice and forgiven, but God does KILL EVERYONE. If he didn't kill then we would be alive forever, but were not because we die and God kills us. If you don't believe that God kills, then you are going to go to hell because you are rejecting the word of God and as Jesus said in Matthew
But He answered and said, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.’” Matthew 4:4
The point of this article was to show God really does kill. I have found out that many people don’t believe that God kills and its a shame because of it. When people are denying the truth that God does kill, it is going to bring them down to hell because they are twisting Gods words.

since our God says that He is God of the living even about those now deceased it might be wise to check scripture on the ressurecction since no one is really dead to Him in that sense. all will be raised at the resurrection of the dead and it is appointed once for man to die. this is part of the process. this is why God is able to forgive even murder. even His only begotten son Jesus was brutally murdered. But God allowed it and raised Jesus from the dead to prove that He has the power over life and death. job13:15 job declares that even though He slay me; yet will i hope in Him

Falcon, I pray that you get over your anger at God and people because it seems to be poisoning you. God has righteous anger at sin but he's not unpredictable in that sense. Also, animals kill people because we live in a fallen world and people sometimes do stupid things. It's not God punishing people. Those instances in the Bible were rare.

God had came to spare Abraham and his descendants from judgement in which Adam and Eve had started. Abraham was willingly to give up his only begotten son from Sarah as a sacrifice for redemption. but the rest of them that careless about redeeming themselve before the Lord were on shaky grounds, because God had really has came back to judge the people but it is so hard for Him to banned the people to the Abyss. Since the time of the first sin that entered the earth, we are suppose to had been banished to the dark Abyss; but god's Mercy had been preventing that.

Numbers 1:53The Levites, however, are to set up their tents around the tabernacle of the covenant law so that my wrath will not fall on the Israelite community. The Levites are to be responsible for the care of the tabernacle of the covenant law.”

Job 1:12The Lord said to Satan, “Very well, then, everything he has is in your power, but on the man himself do not lay a finger.” Then Satan went out from the presence of the Lord.

Isaiah 54:16“See, it is I who created the blacksmith who fans the coals into flame and forges a weapon fit for its work. And it is I who have created the destroyer to wreak havoc;


Exodus 12:23When the Lord goes through the land to strike down the Egyptians, he will see the blood on the top and sides of the doorframe and will pass over that doorway, and he will not permit the destroyer to enter your houses and strike you down.

2 Samuel
15 So the Lord sent a plague on Israel from that morning until the end of the time designated, and seventy thousand of the people from Dan to Beersheba died. 16 When the angel stretched out his hand to destroy Jerusalem, the Lord relented concerning the disaster and said to the angel who was afflicting the people, “Enough! Withdraw your hand.” The angel of the Lord was then at the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite.

Jeremiah 6:26
Put on sackcloth, my people, and roll in ashes; mourn with bitter wailing as for an only son, for suddenly the destroyer will come upon us.

Jeremiah 15:3
“I will send four kinds of destroyers against them,” declares the Lord, “the sword to kill and the dogs to drag away and the birds and the wild animals to devour and destroy.

Revelation 9:11
They had as king over them the angel of the Abyss, whose name in Hebrew is Abaddon and in Greek is Apollyon (that is, Destroyer).

Job 19:25
I know that my redeemer lives, and that in the end he will stand on the earth.

God has never killed people. God has always loved the people He created and wanted life for them, and life abundant. It is sin that kills people, and it is sin that creates a world where there isn't abundance.

It is true that the worst sin is being against God, and the Holy Spirit is of God, but judging our brothers and judging GOD!! even is right up there as a top sin. You had better watch your thoughts, Falcon.

People who take on the judging role for others and don't sit back and let God do the judging are in real danger, it says so in Matthews as God tells us about the outlines of prayer. God says if you don't forgive others He can't forgive you.

Perhaps credit should be given where credit is due. God executes justice but satan is the murderer.

John 10:10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.


John 8:44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

With all due respect, who designed those parameters?

It was God who decided 'My spirit will not contend with the mortal man always, so his days on Earth shall be 120 years'

So it would seem that God himself is not confined, but he designed the parameters that led to our confinement, even if mankind did undertake the action that would be the causality for those rules to be put into effect.

I do not judge i speak the truth, so how about this? God wanted to destroy(kill) everyone on earth. Here is the passage
"5 Then the Lord[b] saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.6 And the Lord was sorry that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart. 7 So the Lord said, “I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth, both man and beast, creeping thing and birds of the air, for I am sorry that I have made them.” 8 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord."

Even if this is literal and not a moral parable, notice 'EVERY intent of the thoughts of man's heart was ONLY evil CONTINUALLY'. They'd have killed each other anyway if that was the case. Probably in a worse manner than floods.

There is nothing existing that our Father did not call into being. He gives us breath, we are brought into this age. He takes away His breath and we are taken away.

Perhaps the father of others kills. My Father gives all, and when He returns He will destroy the destroyers, Rev.

The sin in the garden of Eden is what caused this. Mans decision to disobey.
Our actions have consequences. This was a consequence. To blame God for sin, death,etc when we had a choice isn't right is it?

The sin in the garden of Eden is what caused this. Mans decision to disobey.
Our actions have consequences. This was a consequence. To blame God for sin, death,etc when we had a choice isn't right is it?
And who was it who made the confines of the Earth and presided over the creation of its limitations? It was fully within God's power to remake us perfectly obedient to all of his desires, yet, as the all knowing creator of the Earth, he made us able to succumb to sin, in the knowledge that we WOULD succumb to sin. The question is why?

I form the light and create darkness, I bring prosperity and create disaster; I, the God, do all these things.

In other words you believe in predestination.
