    Moses is the one where all the teachings of the Jewish faith come from including the books of the OT...have you noticed that the versions of God in the OT are different then the ones in the NT?...God in the OT is a vengeful God without mercy who has innocent children killed that had nothing to...

    Why does my God allow children to die? Is he evil?

    The world was NOT made in 6 days, I was trying to make a statement about the wrongs in the bible. The free will was a beautiful thing as God himself mentioned later on in Genesis. A creature that can define his own existence is a beautiful thing and is precious but it comes at a cost to that...

    Why does my God allow children to die? Is he evil?

    Did you ever think that its not God that is punishing people? I tend to think that Satan wears three masks...Christian/Judaism/Islam. According to the bible, Satan wanted to be a God to be worshiped and God didnt approve so He kicked him out into the world. Satan is also the greatest deceiver...

    Why does my God allow children to die? Is he evil?

    The bible also says that the world was made in 6 days. We were made no different then any other animal on this planet. The only difference is that we have an understanding of right and wrong through emotional intelligence and from a psychological understanding. In order to keep free will then...

    Why does my God allow children to die? Is he evil?

    Thanks. I often ask people why they worship God and I usually hear that its because we are below Him and that we are not worthy of Him. I will say to them that to bow down and worship Him(God) is to be His slave, yet they call him father. Do they bow and worship their parents then? If we are...

    Why does my God allow children to die? Is he evil?

    You are the ant-eater actually...I never said that Jesus didnt have claim to the throne. Iam saying the opposite. He had claim but he was supposed to take the throne in the temple and he never made it into the temple before over turning tables in rage over the blasphemes things Moses's people...

    How can you tell God apart from Satan?

    So you mention that we take animals to "serve" us as a justification for us not living to our potential and to live "under" the control of God? There is one aspect of your statement that is not right as well as most of the bible in the same statement. The situation is that...

    How can you tell God apart from Satan?

    I agree with this^ Instead of focusing on the problems and hopes and joys of humanity we are stuck bowing and worshiping like slaves to a being that DEMANDS our service and worship or be condemned forever! I think that they true God is NOT a jealous god as the OT states he is a jealous God...

    Why does my God allow children to die? Is he evil?

    ok here we go... 1. This is about your information regarding the ACTUAL info on the Canaanites... The Old Testament is based on ONLY the views from Moses's people since Moses wrote the first 5 books. On the Wiki site it states that the Canaanites were "Nomads"(peaceful people) that traveled...

    How can you tell God apart from Satan?

    I agree... I believe that Moses was WRONG about what the promise land was. It was ONLY Moses that ever said that the promise land was Canaan. According to Jesus the Promise land is not Canaan at all but in fact it is in our hearts and not an actual land at all! The Temple in Jerusalem was...

    Why does my God allow children to die? Is he evil?

    1. History says that the Canaanites were Nomads( a peaceful people as it says). They were NOT evil as ONLY Moses has said. Its histories word vs Moses's word. If you look at the evidence the only reason they went into Canaan was because it was there "promise land" as said by Moses and only...

    Why does my God allow children to die? Is he evil?

    The Canaanites were wrongfully killed by Moses's people because Moses thought that the Promise Land was the land of Canaan. Only Moses has EVER said the promise land was Canaan(the first 5 books were written by Moses that tell this). We know that the actions of Jesus tell us that the Promise...

    Why the Jesus sacrifice?

    Keep in mind that Jesus said that the temple was to be destroyed and in three days be remade. If its true that the Promise land and the temple as well as the throne are literal as you say they are(promise land being Canaan that is) Then he would have been talking about the temple being remade in...

    Why the Jesus sacrifice?

    He made the choice to be the sacrifice to show that the laws of Moses were wrong by being judged unfairly by that law he would then show its faults. He also died because of what his people did to the Canaanites. Point is,is that there is a difference in a willing sacrifice and a non-willing...

    Why the Jesus sacrifice?

    1. Regardless if they are innocent or not is not an excuse to kill there ENTIRE families. History disagrees with you and it says that they are nomads(peaceful people) Here is something for YOU to note...There are plenty of evil people back then and they...just...happen...to...pick...the people...

    Why the Jesus sacrifice?

    Brickjectivity in my last topic I mentioned this... The ideas of right and wrong have been evolving and its the same with people back in Moses's time and how Moses's people offered men, women and children(Canaanites) as a sacrifice to there God...Today that is seen a pure evil but back then...
