Can't fully explain, unsafe, how God's foreknowledge and human responsibility fit together. Am willing to admit that some things remain a mystery rather than force an answer beyond what Scripture says.

What gives me peace's knowing that God's heart's revealed in Christ. Since God loved the world enough to suffer and die for it, then whatever we don't grasp about His judgments, we can trust that He's far more loving, just, and MERCIFUL than we are

Knowledge is an indispensable quality; the reason why many physically-based gods prefer to keep their associates in the dark (otherwise known as blacked out or stunned). I am fascinated with knowledge, intelligence and all the kin there of ... relations!

More on this elsewhere as you cannot speak of intellect on a fixed belief string ... although many will try and tell you they know all about this intelligence when they can't because of the mortal quality that they have accepted as resolution ... is that resolved?

Thus salts dissolve in laughter as they depart ... somewhat relieved of that quality of serious comprehension!

Do demons chuckle in order to bother those restricted? Observe these two different types in gathering like church ... occupying two side of a situation ...

It happens autonomously if you do not think and comprehend the consequential activity (reaction). And intelligence works its way in there with pain an difficulty ... like the Davinci divide ... always a part in the system as one Ave runs off ... Mary awe? You didn't see that going ...

Shi could get into your mind while looking for protection because minds and intellectualism is difficult entry ... for those devoted to non elect situations and tyranny ... an alternate "-ism" to common ... hominoid?

Isn't that something else the human in an inhuman domain? Monstrous (that being a item on the catholic alter ...) as war is suggested to take one from the other ... thus diminishment of something or other ...

I have dedicated a great slice of time to studying intellect and have gotten the impression that there is no end to it, or at least there is a break in it that would blow your mind ... and intelligence is thus extracted as in ecstasy (a bodily steroid)! It just happens and you don't know about it until after the fact and thus the following ... as nothing can be explained due to delinquency of the counterparts in the plot and conspiracies that are buried! Subtle huh ...

You left out God's Character ---Attribute of being a God of Justice ------

Jesus showed and demonstrated that He was a Just God ------

He turned the Money Changers tables over in the Temple yard -----Righteous Anger

Remember there is nothing like God ... not even coming near to it because god is immortally out there! If immortally out there would that be a near dead situation? Just to stir those that don't believe in things that simulate such states ... as if far out ... as people that hate science for things unbelievable to those that have a sense of observance as the god that gave us Ayes to see ...

Those in hard position cannot get this because of the hard set ... immobile ... like Lady Chatterley's mate ... chair bound ...
 
How can miracles in the Bible be trusted?

Appreciate that faith's not based on being able to scientifically reproduce a miracle.

Since God created the natural world, He's not limited by it.

Miracles are God's extraordinary acts.

For me, the question's WHO'S JESUS.

Since He truly rose from the dead, the other miracles become so easy to believe.

I trust God's Word because through it the Holy Spirit creates and strengthens faith in Christ
 
You Trust all the bible by and through Christs' Faith which is inbirthed in a person when God the Father Changes one's heart and mind to accept and Believe His word -----
unsafe, think the miracles point us to God's great love revealed in Christ.

For me, trusting the miracles's about trusting the God who acted through them to save us. The more I look at Jesus, His compassion, sacrifice, and RESURRECTION, the more all Scripture makes sense.

Faith's resting in Christ and His promises, knowing that the same God who worked miracles then's still faithful today ✝️
 
If Jesus or Isou was the light (lambda?) on death did something of no detectable mass rise from his remains as Big Daddy declared in Cat on Hot Tin ... when he said that mendacity had a smell about it that had to be somehow sweetened ... and so it floated off like other stinking winds ...

Much of the stories of God are based on winds ... some hot some cold as that blowing around Mc Gees boiler and castles in the highlands ... mostly unbelievable and thus Magi as penetrating and impossible place. The impossible place is the mind-soul-psyche complex that by many pious types is said to be non existent ... and thus clearly see through ... a rite of the organ in your head!

The stories of the cursed things that raises intellect ... is a blessing to those able to cultivate it for pathways out of this dimension of lyres. Powerful lyres are sucked up by many old cats ... as only a story can get along as truth is rare ...

In such ways of countering the pious ... the pool is disturbed and many false fishes rise as whales of extensions ... all muddied because of isolated agendas that are not communally based ... such is a scheme to bult an operation too large for the earth to support ... and thus a putrid dream! Resembles Big Daddies words on mendicants! It he pot is sweetened ... you'd be surprised who'd swallow it ... the whole thing! Pseudonym or not!

How many metaphors are in use in a tome like the bibliography of illuminator devices? Gordon flashers ... gourds? Expect seediness ...

the Holy Spirit creates faith in Christ
Just took this part from your statement above =====

I disagree with this part -----that the Holy Spirit Creates Faith in Jesus -----

Faith according to Scripture Comes from Hearing THROUGH the Word ----

Romans 10:17
So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ.

Who is the Word ????----

Jesus is the Word --- when our Heart is changed to an acceptable Heart to Hear The Spiritual Word ---- Christ's Faith is inbirthed in us ------

Hebrews 12:2 ---Jesus is the Author and Finisher of Faith

The Holy Spirit provides the inward empowerment that enables Christ's inbirthed Faith to act in the Believers life ------


faith in Christ------
Is it our Faith IN Christ or the Faith Of Christ ------


Who's Faith is it ----Is it Our Faith that we believe in Jesus -----or is it because of His Faith that we believe in Him



From Google

Pistis Christou is a Greek phrase from the New Testament that means "faith of Christ"


Meaning of the Words

Pistis (πίστις): A Greek word that means faith, trust, confidence, or faithfulness.

Christou (Χριστοῦ): The genitive form of Christ, meaning "of Christ"


My view is --

If we have Faith in Christ ---it sounds like we need to strive or work to do something to have that Faith in Christ ---

If it is the Faith of Christ --------There is no striving or work for us to do if the Faith comes from Jesus Christ to us -----he is providing the Faith through hearing His word -----
 
People can get sucked into such great battles over bibliography that they know so little about and yet causes fights ...

The origin of War Mongers? Is it something to start disbelieving a bit, as things will quiet down and people can start resolving reproductive issues ... that have overrun certain domains ... screwing about metaphysically without production ... just a great deal of mulling and milling?

Like a bore in a difficult position ... grinding finish! Stop it said the house director ... an old maid! The house became like ... haunted ... with over runs that got up and went ... so they could look back at primal matter ... MS Takes! Blind offerings to those that deny they make such things in their mind set ... perfection?

Lay a book down in a crowd and watch for ignitions ...

Wipes? Remember the fates of catalogues ... smears ... desires and wants were initiated ... why some intellectual agents fell to earth to study ... folly of Loci?
 
Why does God appear harsh or violent in some parts of the Bible?

Believe that all Scripture points us to Christ, who showed God's heart through forgiveness. Sacrifice! GRACE!

That helps me read the difficult passages in light of God's ultimate plan to save rather than destroy.

I've found peace in trusting that God's character's revealed most fully at the cross, where justice and mercy meet together.

The same God who judged sin's the God who chose to bear that judgment Himself for us
 
God who is Agape loves all His Human Creation with all their Corrupt self ----but God is a God of Justice and will not stand for Disobedience -----and God the Father Dealt directly with the people in the Old Testament and the people were wicked and He served Righteous Judgment upon the wicked ----and that was His Right to do that ------
Since God's Agape, unsafe, His love can't be separated from His holiness.

A God who never judges evil wouldn't actually be loving toward evil's victims, nor would He be just.

Scripture presents both truths together. God's love. God's good!

The great mystery's God's mercy toward people who've done nothing to earn it. That's what makes grace amazing
 
God appears very violent and harsh in the Old Testament and many people have a big Problem with that ----

How could a Loving God act so harsh and violent ---

If you read Judges ----you see there was no Central leadership in place and people were left to do what they thought was right for them ===

Judges 17:6​

6 In those days there was no king in Israel; every man did what was right in his own eyes.


I say -----The Heart of mankind is evil ---so this signifies what happens when you have a society with evil hearts who are left to do as they please -----with no restraints to keep them in any kind of order ----you have like a river of evil flowing everywhere with no Dam to stop it ----the sinful evil and wicked society just kept Rebelling against God -----

There was so much Violence in the world ----God had to respond and so He did with harsh --violent Righteous Judgment -----

This is Moral Evil being judged by Physical Evil ----this shows the seriousness of rebellion and sin against God ----

From Google
The Old Testament contains numerous accounts where God utilizes natural disasters, diseases, and military conflicts as expressions of judgment--

Today WE See Moral Evil happening all over this world ----and God is Responding with Righteous Judgment ----Plagues ----Tornadoes---- Earthquakes ---Volcano eruptions ----Floods ---- Hurricanes ---- etc ----using His Righteous Judgment to shake people awake and know their sins and rebellion against Him have consequences ----

and Believe me this is just a Taste of what is coming in the future as He again pours His Wrath out on this wicked earth ----

Your idiot God looks at the wickedness of the world and kills the young and the innocent next to the guilty in response, and this is "Righteous Judgment"?

WTF is wrong with you? How broken is your brain that you, a) believe this, and, b) think it's a good thing?

Personally, unsafe, I've walked through enough pain in life that I struggle to look at every tragedy and immediately see God's wrath.

When I see families lose loved ones in a flood or earthquake, I think about Jesus weeping with those who were grieving. That image stays with me.

I believe God's full of compassion for hurting people.

The most powerful witness, unsafe, is sitting with people in their suffering and reminding them that Christ's not abandoned them
 
Why do good people suffer while bad people prosper?

God's justice works on a deeper timeline than ours.

The things He values most, faith, love, mercy, and A HEART THAT TRUSTS HIM, aren't the things the world rewards.

So for me, faith's about trusting God's heart when I can't grasp His plan.

God's heart's most clearly seen in Christ, who suffered with us and for us and promises that one day He'll make all things right

God can be all things if the literature suggest such a belief! Thus expect a lot of the brutal side of all that ...

Does not everything leave a certain void in order to sustain agape as a flaw in the mortal system? If it were perfect it would be immortal ... thus some mortal powers are really upset that they cannot destroy what drives them towards thoughtful reconsideration of why they did such destructive activities. They do not things they cannot diminish ... the observation of this quality in everything may tell you something about yourself ... if you were to read into it!

That will work on some people. Just be sure you know your audience before using that one.

I don't personally understand how you square that belief in an all-powerful and good deity with cruel realities, and it's never been explained to me in a way that is anything resembling a coherent argument, but that's for each person to decide.

Yep, pretty much this.

Is stupidity possible within the mortal collective mind ... considering what it is deprived of in a coercive manner?

I say collective mind because it is integral to the idea that a lot should be absorbed for the item of concern to be wise about what it were to be applied to ...

There are questions about this treed effect ... what falls from it and what rises to its assistance as suggested from the word malus that could be misread as malice if you didn't understand old words relating to trees and the chemistry of the fruit thereof ... Bunyan's cow?

Actually it is malic acid a form of citric acid, etc. and so on into extensions poorly understood by folk that piously close their gourds to knowledge ... isolated emotions thus can cause anger management difficulties ... PTSD, ADHD and numerous other irrational responses ...

When will we ever learn? It is questionable given the inclinations we have to avoid some senses especially the more beneficial types to the greater use ... of a greater power????

Power, thought and destruction are all related albeit we know little about it ... because we don't wish to! Many will not even contemplate the enigma ... or outcome (conclusion)?

It may take more input that we are conscious of ...
