Pathetic People

Knows beforehand what he's going to do, no idea.

He is Love...He sets it up for us, even when He knows Satan will mess it up, or we will get sucked into Satans plan, and He gives us the chance to do it with Him. Then if it gets messed up He will fix it, even will allow us to help sometimes....In times like Genesis 6 He had not choice, He saved the only eight humans left on the planet and destroyed then cleaned up the rest.
 
When men "regret" something they usually think, "I'll never do that again" When God regrets he never thinks that, in fact if he had to do it all over again, he would not change anything. The only thing the Lord regrets is in his having to punish man for his actions. Only a all knowing God can do that.

God is NOT a man to regret like a man.

1Sa 15:28 And Samuel said to him, “The LORD has torn the kingdom of Israel from you this day and has given it to a neighbor of yours, who is better than you.
1Sa 15:29 And also the Glory of Israel will not lie or have regret, for he is not a man, that he should have regret.”
 
hey I haven't read the whole thread but @Bendito do you mean apathetic people.
I don't know what other christian forums you post on but I found Talk Jesus is the best so far. :)
 
Uh.. I beg to differ God is not I..unless you talking about a new age impersonal god. Like the force in star wars. Uh..no.

Jesus called God his Father. Which makes God Him. We are made in His image, not the other way round, His ways are higher than ours. But you can only call on abba father if youve been adopted or born again..by His spirit.

So...maybe examine yourselves whether you have faith. 2 corinthians 13:5
 
Not everything that people say spiritually can be found within the bible, since the bible does not have everything pertaining to spiritual matters. If it did, you wouldn't need teachers and pastors, prophets and apostle's.
Um actually this isnt true.
God has given His word and the reason why God gives us pastors, prophets And apostles is so they can spread the word to people who havent heard it and so they can start to study it for themselves. Nothing a Pastor, prophet and apostle gives is will be contrary to his Word. That is why we MUST search acripture to see if things are so.

You cant just assume God is speaking to you without going to His Word. Even Jesus did that when he was tempted in the wilderness by satan trying to trick him. He defeated him by saying It is written and them quoted deuteronomy. Why do you think the ten commandments were engraved in stone by the finger of God rather than God just telling it to the israelites? Why do you think GOd asked his prophets to speak and then write the visions down?!

Only satan was saying, just as he told Eve..has God said? And then led her astray by getting into her head stuff He didnt actually say and causing her to doubt.

God is a force, he is primarily a spirit and therefore a force.

I'm trying to say that the bible can not contain everything we need to know from here to the end of the universe. It has to be updated with more scripture, or I'm afraid Christians that the only end times you'll encounter is the end of your religion.
 
Holy spirit is not a force. Sorry. I dont know where you get that from.

Do you know God as your Father? Do you agree that Jesus is His son?

I dont want to argue with you but if you dont have faith...we cant be having this conversation.
 
jesus is the alpha and the omega the beginning and the end.
Sorry if you really dont want know him you have no business being on talk jesus. He wants you to know Him.

He loves you and doesnt want you to perish, becAuse his word is eternal, when all other religions are dead and gone. Because He is the way, the truth and the life.

Dont be deceived.

Interesting ideas @roguesoul How do you know what you know about God?

Sausage dogs are hilarious looking, who says God doesn't have a sense of humor.
 
There ideas and theories, they don't have to come from God to be correct.

Of course not. But ideas and theories about God - or anything else for that matter - come from somewhere and need to be grounded in something.

Nah, he's impossible to know.

The bible contains everything we need to know. All we need to know is that God loves us and hates what is evil. So in His love He planned our redemption from our sins, which involved Him having to lay His life down for us. The greatest act of love possible John 15:13. This, is explained in absolute detail. There is no blur on what pleases and displeases God for anyone with the ability to read.

Saying He is impossible to know is wrong. You said yourself that you are able to discern matters without the bible. There is truth to that as Napoleon touches on here The Sacred Page: Napoleon's Proof for the Divinity of Jesus. God gave mankind working brains.

So, are you someone after God's heart? Lets talk further on that. I don't like all this beating around the bush. This thread is after all about ''pathetic'' people.

To truly know Jesus as Lord, is a revelation God gives us 1 Cor 12:3. He does this only after judging our hearts and minds Jer 17:9-11. We only pass this judgment if we are truly after His heart Rom 12:9 Genuine love is to hate what is evil and cling to what is good. Psalm 51:17 The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
 
Doesn't anybody find that its sad how so many Christians don't know the Word of God...don't know that its all for them..They compartmentalize it, saying, Oh that was for Abraham,,,Oh That was for the Old Covenant, Oh That has passed away.....and on and on...They don't realize that ALL of the Word is for them, but it is! Maybe its easier to disbelieve Gods Word, than it is to believe that they are worthy to receive it all...Maybe they find it easier to believe the enemy than it is to believe God? God tells us to trust Him, and not to do things by our own intellect.

Proverbs 3:5 (CJB)

5 Trust in Adonai with all your heart;
do not rely on your own understanding.

I wonder many times if the World is more powerful to them than the Word is....

This is where the great falling away is...Christians following the enemy rather than the truth....Jesus is the way the truth and the life...Follow after Jesus not some musical tongued preacher, or your own intellectual silliness, not vain empty philosophies, not fleshly desires for comfort or for social pressures. Follow the Word only!
Agreed.

Everything rotates around Jesus. Mankind would not have been created if Jesus did not exist. Jesus on the cross was planned before the foundations of the earth. The whole bible points to Jesus. From God choosing His people with Abraham to us living by faith in Him after the cross. To us reigning with Him in heaven. Forever sanctified by His blood.

The devil has influenced peoples minds to focus on nonsense and miss what is important.

If belief is the only requirement to understand truth, then I'll be a God long after I die.
