When innocent children are slaughtered it's natural for the faithful to wonder where God was. How did he let it happen,etc...?

The why is easy, the shooter was a psycho. In Texas open carry and Castle doctrine are law. I'm disappointed he got as far as he did and got away before being stopped sfter accruing so many victims to his evil.

Why don't we go us on the victims and not the dev that took them?😟
If a society like the United States propagates hatred all day long, hatred of communism, hatred of China, hatred of Russia and hatred of Arabia, I don't doubt why the United States produces so many psycho, because they are full of hatred. Maybe I'm not completely right, because I don't know what these psycho have experienced, leading them to express their ideas by killing people.

If you believe in God, will those who believe in God in the Old Testament fear death? Are they afraid that evil will take their lives? They are not afraid of death at all, because God will resurrect them.

Can you post a scripture for the age of accountability?

As I already mentioned, David said that he could not bring his son back but he could go to him.

Just an interesting excerpt on the subject;

As with other doctrines like the trinity that are not specifically spelled out, many theologians and Bible students have come to the conclusion that there is an age of accountability, though it undoubtedly varies with individuals.

Some believe the age of accountability could have been around 20 years old because this was the age when young men in Israel became accountable to serve in the army of Israel.

Others believe the age of accountability to be around 12 or 13 due to this being the age when Jesus went up to Jerusalem with his parents and was found in the temple discussing the Law and asking questions. This was also the normal age for being received into Judaism as a “son of the law,” which would make him a full member of the religious community. Since the primary issue seems to be response to the revelation God has given, personal accountability would vary and depend on one’s ability to understand the most fundamental issues. In some, this might be very young, while in others it might be much older.

No you're not completely right you're completely wrong. God hates communism, He hates that China is committing gentraocide right now, putting people in concentration camps, of the innocent blood being spilled by Russia in Ukraine. You need to find a Bible,open it and read it.

You are just one of these psycho, deep in your heart, you just want to kill or let Someone die.

I support communism, and I believe in God, so what try to kill me?or want God to kill me?
Is it different from killing?

The Bible says that those who believe live together and share all things.
Communism is originally a system of collective property.

You are blind and deaf yourself. You say you come from a communist country. Don't you even understand these? Then I really don't know whether you hate your motherland or communism.

A person full of hatred is not worthy to tell me his justice

What others believe was not the question. There is no Scripture speaking of 'the age of accountability" We wish it to be so .. we find emotional reaches bringing it to account. But there is not a Scripture/passage. Age of accountability beliefs are not in the same vain as the Trinity.. We can find Scripture speaking of 3
Mat_28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Although they do not use the word trinity.

I would be careful speaking for God ..
Pro 6:16 These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him:
Pro 6:17 A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,
Pro 6:18 An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,
Pro 6:19 A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.

My morals? Well, at least I have them.

Only a matter of time before your bloviating self-righteous lecturing condemning emotion over rationality showed itself.

My "tripe" is Biblical because I am a Christian and don't equate to God a satanic indifference to innocent children whom only the enemy makes into the damned the day they are born.

You are so wrong.
Yet it is true, blasphemous condemnation of God will be vindicated by God .
I knew you couldn't make your case without accusing me of inferior morality. What you don't see is that your comments only reflect on you.

You should really take advantage of your time spent in this Christian site. Because you are clearly confused there thinking this is a Jewish forum.

And if you think innocent children paid for their sins by being killed by that devil, which is the implication in context of the OP by your post, you're not even fit to serve in a Jewish community.

Yes! I'm far better than the psychopath coward that murdered little innocent children and adults because he wanted vengeance for being teased as a kid.

And the surviving children are better off that he's dead and can't return later to finish the job.

And now he'll face God's justice. Because he earned it.
First my post was an answer to the Poster who opened this thread.
Second, I am no jew and i dont hold zwischen forum for a jewish forum. Do why you bring up this?
Third, I neglectet not the terrible crime this Teenager did.
Wether we are a better person then another the Lord will reveal in the future.
So long i would be careful to be proud of myself.

Since the great flood, God said he regretted it, so now God will not appear in this world to kill the wicked. But there may be exceptions, such as Russian thieves who stole the cross of the church and were killed by lightning.
I don't think God is so mysterious. He does what he is willing to do. We can't interfere with God's will. Who has been God's counselor?

The Bible says that those who believe live together and share all things.
No, it says that the members of the early Church in Jerusalem shared (past tense) all things. It says nothing about them living together, but rather about meeting together. It was voluntary, not mandatory, and there is no mention anywhere in Scripture of that being an ideal, desired, or commanded practice.

Communism is originally a system of collective property.
No, communism is originally a corrupt attempt to take by force what could not be taken by peaceful means. It is one man's ideology. Within the countries where it is practiced, it is mandatory, not voluntary. The government comes along and takes the personal belongings of citizens and redistributes them... to themselves abundantly and to the people sparingly. That is theft.

That is not what the Bible says!

Before the flood, God said that He regretted making mankind (Genesis 5:6).

After the flood, God said that He would not destroy it again by water (Genesis 9:11).

Nowhere does God say that He will not appear to kill the wicked. Quite the contrary! He promises that He is coming back and will destroy the wicked forever (Revelation 19:11-21).

So what? Should the world's resources be allocated to the 2% of the people, and the rest are not human?

Yes, this is called being clever, but being clever is mistaken. Why not create all as angels from the beginning?

Then God created man, human believed in Jesus, and became angels after the death on earth.

Don't put words in my mouth.

The present situation is not God's design, but neither is human-enforced redistribution. You like the idea of communism where all are equal, but you overlook (or are completely unaware) of the fact that in every communist system, "some are more equal than others".

That doesn't even begin to make sense. What I wrote is plain biblical truth that proves your statements wrong.

Humans don't become angels, and this line of discussion is irrelevant to the thread topic.

You've finally been honest, instead of lying like the U.S. government.The government supported by capitalists will certainly fear such communism.

If everyone say they believe in Bible,"some are more equal than others". is it Bible bad ?
