God is almost omnipotent. He has many limits.

Yes. Your silence would have been better.

Again you tell others not to judge your God while you have done just that.

I don't know if you consider yourself to be the "Greatest I Am", but in the event you do, you really ought to go read the Book of Job, and while there, feel free to answer the same 64 questions God put to Job. Come back when you have the answers.

Why would I want to read about a God who makes a bet with Satan and allows and indeed, encourages harm to a human and his family to win an immoral bet?

Would you do such a thing?

Hey there greatestiam

I just wanted you to take the test in order to gauge the expanse of your knowledge. It's just a simple science test. A mere 64 questions from your Maker. You don't have to take the entire exam, in fact 48 correct answers would make a passing grade. Good luck.

The proof is in the Bible which was written so tat ignorance of the scriptures is no excuse. The proof is also in your personal life where blessings were bestowed. Did the Allies won WW2 by chance or by the grace of God? Everything on earth has been well planned divinely to progress according to plan.

Ignorance of the scriptures is no excuse:

Luke 16:19-31.

There was a certain rich man, who was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day. And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores, and desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover, the dogs came and licked his sores. And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; and in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and sees Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. And he cried and said, Father Abraham,, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame. But Abraham said, Son, remember that you in your lifetime received your good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and you are tormented. And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they who would pass from here to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from there. Then he said, I pray you, therefore, father, that you would send him to my father's house, for I have five brethren, that he may testify to them, lest they also come into this place of torment. Abraham says to him, They have Moses and the Prophets; let them hear them. And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went to them from the dead, they will repent. And he said to him, If they hear not Moses and the Prophets, neither will they be persuaded if one rose from the dead.

Do you have proof of your Gnostic God?

Many God Blessings to all.

Hi John,

DL asked you a very straightforward question...I was wondering why you didn't answer it?

He did it because Job was complicit in genocide.

Technically Mr Job didn't do anything wrong, but he didn't do the right thing when he should have.

The Pharoah who set up the "kill the baby boys" program (why Moses was placed in the bulrushes, where he was found by Pharoah's daughter) organised a conference with the three greatest advisors on the planet as his consultants - the conference was, like Nazi ones thousands of years later, on "What to do about the Jewish/Hebrew Problem".

The advisers were:

• Job
• Balaam, the prize ratfink, and greatest dark wizard in history
• Jethro, Moses' future father-in-lawob

Balaam came up with the "genocide by killing the baby boys" plan.

Things got ugly between Balaam and Pharoah, and the advisor who spat the dummy over the plan. Pharoah refused to pay him, and he stormed out. It is unclear if he pinched the staff, which had been in Joseph's possession, and had been looted from his palace after his death by the Egyptians, Maybe the Egyptians finally gave it to him, but however it happened, Jethro ended up with it, and took it home with him. Moses would one day in the distant future, have it with him when the bush was burning and God spoke to him.

Young Job stayed out of the fight - neutral, no vote either way, content to collect his hefty fee, attend the closing banquet, and head home a much wealthier man.

He had not, technically, done anything wrong -- but if he, like Jethro, had done the right thing, a lot of babies probably would not have been killed - he might have swayed Pharoah from Balaam's genocidal scheme.

Good morning Rose

Since you have joined this conversation, I will join in with you. The question asked of John was ludicrous. DL is just showing himself/hersef to be ignorant of understanding of what the Bible says or means. As CWH has just written in a post; "ignorance is no excuse".

On the subject of not answering simple direct questions, why have you not answered my questions in the two separate threads in which we have corresponded?

All the best,

David

Do you have proof of your Gnostic God?

Well, if I go by your standards, yes.

They speak of him in ancient text as well.

If you want me to accept yours, reciprocity says you also must accept mine. My evidence is as good as yours.

As to Your God's plan. It it really going the way God wants?

I do not think so and I offer the following as proof.

No self-respecting God who wants to have relevance with man would ever allow the carnage spoken of here nor the immorality.
