Ahh, then End Times for this thread. Off to Yeshua's First Coming!

(on second thought, eeeeewwww - the sudden flash of Adam West, Burt Ward, Orgasmo....<shiver> - of course, there was Julie Newmar and Lee Merriweather...) I'll have the popcorn ready, but I'm defnitely not holding my breath. After 2000 years (based upon the traditional assumptions), and more comings than John Holmes, I doubt Yeshua can get here anytime soon. Sorry, couldn't think of a finish there that wasn't repetitive. I failed at the end (I know, I know, it happens to all men....) :Cheeky: |

Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able?
Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence (source, place or cause) cometh evil? Is he neither willing nor able? Then why call him God? - Epicurus. |

God creates all this stuff, creates Satan, banishes him to hell (which is apparently what the earth is since satan has control over it). Then God allows Satan to have his way with us for 4.5 billion years (so far). Then what? God appears and.... ? This is where I'm confused. First you say that God will defeat Satan and his band of demons, then you say that satan will be eternally punished. Which is it? Defeat him as in how? If God is not going to remove Satan from existence and instead just punish him, what's the punishment going to be? Hell? Didn't he already do that? It didn't seem to work very well - yet another thing that God apparently screwed up on. There is no logical point to any of these scenarios. God is obviously not as omnimax as believers make him out to be, if he was, he wouldn't have made all these mistakes. Why is giving mankind freewill so important to God? |

So no one was curious enough to ask IBIH what the song was that caused their soul to be on fire for Jesus?
Which one was it IBIH? |
