In other words you believe in predestination.
If you want to put it that way. If God is all knowing and is all powerful, then logic dictates that he had to have known what would happen in Eden and allowed it to be so. If he allowed it, then it was his choice to allow it and so it was part of his plan.

Knowing what will happen and allowing it due to free moral agency is totally different than creating humanity with no other choice than to sin.

I know some things my son will do before he does it. Why? Because I KNOW him better than anyone else. I created him. He is part of me. And bless his heart he acts like me too! I also know what the consequences will be. If he disobeys the consequences will be punishment. If he obeys his consequences are a reward. I've predetermined some things, but his decision to react is entirely up to him.

But you aren't God, so you have no actual control over what your son does. Any control you have is a result of complex emotional responses and the illusion of you being in charge of your son. In theory, he can do whatever he likes unless you physically stop him with your superior strength and size. If your son was about to run into the fire or jump off a cliff and die, would you physically stop him? If so, then your analysis of the similarities between your mother-son relationship and God's relationship with Adam and Eve is invalid because you would show a method of force that God didn't show to Adam and Eve.

If God knew what will happen, and allowed it to happen, and created man with the ability for it to happen, and instated the laws that dictated everything that would happen and the consequences of every action, then God created us into a situation that could never have happened any differently, because he knew it EXACTLY how it would happen before it did yet didn't do anything to change it.

Imagine oyu knew your son in entirety, and had complete control of all his surroundings and how he was actually made, down to every detail. Then imagine him sentencing himself to death through sins, and you allowing it and actually creating the parameters for it with all the knowledge and power you have.

Question is why? God must have seen something in Adam and Eve worth keeping. Why didn't he just abolish them and destroy them and save himself, and them, all the hassle and turmoil?

Why not change them? Why not tweak the design? Why not forgive and give a second chance?

Questions that nobody seems to have answers to.

God knew that Adam would fall but because God loved Adam with a love that only He could have God determined that He would become the sin satisfaction for Adams sin so that He might demonstrate His perfect love for His creation, Adam. How little of Gods love for us do we really perceive? How much of God's wrath upon sin do we really perceive?

You're right. I would sacrifice my own life and willingly die to save my child.
Self sacrifice. It's a humble thing. Bible gives a pretty nifty story about that ya know.
I'd say more but I have to go to work. I'd like to continue this later on if possible. I like talking to you.

Speculating on why God does something, without studying Scripture, and help by the Holy Spirit is dangerous and fruitless. We may not even be able to comprehend it even if He explained it to us in our fleshly body and mind.

Like a person standing on a tall building watching a parade, that can see the beginning and the end of the parade at the same time, UNLIKE the person on the sidewalk that can only see what is currently in front of them, so the Lord can see OUR beginning and end. Maybe a life is taken because God knows a worse fate may befall that person if he lives on, and the loss of his MORTAL, FLESHLY is actually God showing mercy.

Job is a book that really must be studied in these regards. The bottom line is that we DON'T have enough information or even intelligence to understand God's motives. It is far better to simply trust in Him and his word, which is all about the lengths he goes to to save us by offering His ONLY son Jesus as payment of our debt. I pray in His name you would accept His gift.

You said 'speculating on why god does something, without studying scripture and help by the Holy Spirit is dangerous and fruitless'. And my answer was that I have studied the bible. THen you explained why God may or may not take a life (using a speculation without scripture).

Then you said 'It is far better to simply trust in Him and his word, which is all about the lengths he goes to to save us by offering His ONLY son Jesus as payment of our debt. I pray in His name you would accept His gift' as if I somehow haven't 'accepted his gift'.

I see it pretty much the same as you and I've wondered that, too.

My thought is He created the Angels without sin and 1/3 of them departed from Him.

Maybe He created us with sin so that we would depart from that and come to Him.

You know, wanting to taste of that which is not familiar...

That's just my philosophy and not biblical so take it with a grain of salt...

No I see what you're saying. I think this too. We need to know injustice and pain and hurt and the products of selfishness in order to properly understand why we shouldn't do it and what the effects of it are.

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.
Actually going by Biblical numbers alone God kills about 2.5 million people and satan just kills 10 people.

Only way to feel the pain of someone else is that you must of been in that situation before in order to relate or understand that person's pain; and which you'll be able to know how to give comfort to that person and which that is called showing love to your neighbor in truth but not a phoney love like the ones that pretending that they care and understand. God want us to show true love to one another and Him. and the only way is to walk in that someone(s) footsteps.


This verse is saying to love Him so deeply within, basically to love Him truthfully.
John 4:24
God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth.”

Hosea 1
2 When the Lord began to speak through Hosea, the Lord said to him, “Go, marry a promiscuouswoman and have children with her, for like an adulterous wife this land is guilty of unfaithfulness to the Lord.” 3 So he married Gomer daughter of Diblaim, and she conceived and bore him a son.

Hosea 3
The Lord said to me, “Go, show your love to your wife again, though she is loved by another man and is an adulteress. Love her as the Lord loves the Israelites, though they turn to other gods and love the sacred raisin cakes.”

He had Hosea to marry a harlot so that Hosea can feel His pain and able to explain to the people the way God would have explained it to the people with feelings.

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 written...
James 1:13-15
13. Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:
14. But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.
15. Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.

God does not tempt people to sin rather He implements His permissive will, because of the free moral agency of mankind, whereby He allows them to choose to reveal their sinfulness out of their evil hearts but can use that opportunity to accomplish His sovereign will e.g. the hardening of Pharaoh's heart and Judas' betrayal of Jesus. This is why they assume responsibility for their actions.

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.
.........is he serious? that's not the god I know

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.
To make one able is not the same as to make one sin. Man's sin was man's fault. From man's sin came death. From God's grace comes reconciliation and life.

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."
Genesis 6:5-8
Before the flood men were so out of control that no one could life in peace in the world, they were men who were dead in their sins. The only hope for the world at that time was to start over and hope that men could be brought to some understanding of what life was all about and how to live it. You make it sound as if the God who created us didn't care a thing about His creation. That isn't so. God saved the men who listened and could learn.

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.

What is your point?
