Do you love god?

I love god do you well ir you even dont he still
loves u333

After all the atrocities I have seen committed in God's name, I try to stay away from religion as a whole. Every other person is entitled to their faith, just as I am entitled to abstain from it.

Yes I love God. He lived and died for me so that I could go to heaven one day. How could I not love Him?

with my whole heart.

yes I do. Its comforting to know He is always with me no matter what.

Only with all of my heart. :]

I try to save my love for those that exist and deserve it (love, that is, not existence).

OF COURSE I LOOOVE GOD

Indifference =/

yes, I do love god. I love god w/ everything I have.

*sigh*

These threads are like 'Groundhog Day'

I love god more than anybody and anything else in the world..

*** These threads are like 'Groundhog Day'

:D

Indeed.

ofcourse I love god look what hes done he gave his only begotten son so that we could be forgivein for our sins. I love him with all my heart.

Yes, honey, I do love God, with all my heart, mind, soul and strength.

And Yes, he loves everyone of us, even the ones that do not love him. He is always available, and willing to forgive anyone of us, and welcome us with open arms, no matter how we may have hurt him in the past.

It is awesome, how he removes our transgressions from us, as far as the East is from the West... according to his word, which is our guide.

I am very grateful to have been allowed to serve him, what an awesome privilege.

I pray that any who do not know him, will come to find the peace that is available to each and everyone.

And to Lex icon...

The atttrocities that you mention, having seen, should be rightly attributed to the one responsible... which is Satan... not God.

And man, who often times follows his own inclinations...

God loves the human race, however, he is also, a God of judgement, and when the time is right, and he determines, that judgement is necessary, he will not back down.

Uhh...Which God?
Lol

Okay, sure...

Cast your mind back to the events in Northern Ireland, 2001.

Little schoolgirls, some as young as the age of four, were abused on their way to the Holy Cross Catholic school.

A crowd of around 200 people, yelling verbal abuse, throwing stones and bottles at these poor girls. A lot of the children were so traumatised by the abuse they received, they almost immediately left the school from another exit.

This same event lead to more violent conflict, petrol bombs, and gunfire from both sides, Catholic and Protestant. All because each group was convinced the other religion was wrong. Because they were acting out for God.

It's this sort of behaviour, associated with religion, often said to be done in the name of it, which makes me refuse to take that road. If absolute faith makes people kill and hurt others in the name of God, then I absolutely reject it.

Besides, what are the criteria for defining what is the work of the Devil? Remember, no religion marched into battle thinking God wasn't on their side.

I will strew your flesh upon the mountains, and fill the valleys with your carcass. I will drench the land even to the mountains with your flowing blood...
...Ezekiel 32:5
I will fall upon them like a bear robbed of her cubs, I will tear open their breast, and there I will devour them like a lion, as a wild beast would rend them.
...Hosea 13:8
...I make weal and create woe, I am the Lord, who do all these things.
...Isaiah 45:7
Therefore fathers shall eat their sons in the midst of you and sons shall eat their fathers...I will send famine and wild beasts against you and they shall rob you of your children; pestilence and blood shall pass through you; and I will bring a sword upon you. I, the Lord, have spoken.
...Ezekiel 5:10, 5:17
“I will corrupt your seed and
spread dung upon your faces!”
Mala 2:3
“The Lord is a man of War!”

God...Gotta love him, Lol
remember what Jesus says

If any one comes to me and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciple.
...Luke 14:26

So hate your family you shall be the deciple of Jesus

***The atttrocities that you mention, having seen, should be rightly attributed to the one responsible... which is Satan... not God.***

Absolute DENIAL of responsibility... *sigh*

If Satan is responsible, then HE should be held accountable. But no, somehow, he does all the dirty work, but WE will be judged for it. That makes your version of God seem... stupid. So you're interpretation must be wrong.

And why do all the LLCs keep forgetting to input 'free-will' into the equation?

wow there are a lot of religious people. I honestly can say that idc that much for god. I have my own religion that I dont even care to much about. for me I have my own thoughts about what happens when we die. and idc really if god loves me as long as I have one real friend im fine.

Good point, I never looked at it that way.

I know some Christians believe that we are simply condemned since the day we are born, perhaps that's why. It's rumored that some where in the bible it says that too.

Yep... but there is a dozen or so OTHER verses that contradict it... as usual...
