God is no respecter of persons. He hates sin and will destroy sinners. If you want to call that vengeful, unkind etc., be my guest. But think of what awaits a man who hates God.
So, I have an inquiry, and I would appreciate a solid answer, as it will educate me properly on the subject which you know. If I know how you feel, I can better understand your point of view.
My question is, if God hates sin, why did he create it?
So, assuming that God created all, which includes sin, then that means he created something to hate, and created people with the purpose of doing that which he hates. He then has already decided from the very beginning, that those people will do what he hates, and that he will destroy them.
On the other hand, he creates people who will not do what he hates and he will not destroy them.
So, God creates people for the purpose of being loved and saved, and God creates people for the purpose of being hated by him. Why? To me, it's not remotely logical, reasonable, rational, loving, humane, or nice; not to mention, its just plain mean.
That's like raising your kid and purposefully teaching them to do things that you wont allow, then punishing them for it when they grow up by torturing them. Sounds sadistic :Eek:
This does not remotely resemble the loving God that Jesus talks about, nor does it resemble the love Jesus showed to those who were torturing him and heckling him and crucifying him.
Anyway, please explain this properly so that I have a good understanding of it.
Anyway, I expect a full answer. Please dont avoid a full direct answer to my question like you have been with Quagmire. If I do not receive a full answer, I will take it as an admission of fallacy, and a sign that you are telling me that there is a structural flaw in your doctrine.
Thanks
