Why does god have a weird way of communicating?

God interacts with people in the way most effective in their individual case. A knowledge of THE BIBLE is central to anybody who aims to be a functional Christian. IGNOPRANCE of the Bible render one "Fair game" for deception. I'vr been a Christian now for 60 years. and have no complaints regarding God's ability and willingness to communicate. COuld be you'r listening to the wrong "god".

Bob, you have turned orange. Are you celebrating Trump's victory?

Planet,

You don't understand God has been so merciful to us. He gave his only son Jesus for our sins. All we need to do is believe on him and be saved.
It's not much that he asked in return that we love God also to fear him and to keep his commandments which is to love you neighbor as yourself. Seek his face. And hide our eyes from violence.

Our father isn't unfair. To those that sin he punishes them and to those that repents he rewards.

Indeed. There truly is no being like Him! I'm glad that we have an eternity before us to continue to get to know Him (because anything less than that would not be enough time)

I know that along with being loving, merciful and gracious, God must have a VERY great sense of humor too (and no one would need look any farther than me to figure that out ). That said, I believe that He has greater things in mind for us, especially on this side of the grave.

As far as the meaning of life goes, I always like to start with the concise definition that the Westminster Shorter Catechism gives us in Q & A #1. See below.

~Deuteronomy (David)

Planet, So the real question is what sin is holding you back? what sin is it that you love more then God and his eternal blessings?

That is very scary considering not all of us are made for reading the bible, but somehow I agree with you though as I believe god is a matter of fact. In an extreme case, what happens if you are illiterate and cannot read a book, let alone a cryptic book? The very nature of that statement gives credence to god being dangerous.

Hands down, Lust for life. I'm not talking about Sky diving or Bungie Jumping, I'm talking about taking full advantage of my talents and getting the most out of life.

What if understanding is a matter of revelation?

I would like to ask you, can you ever recall a time when god sent you a filthy heathen to tell you what your flaws were?

Sure. It's humbling. That's the point. I can also recall a time when I was a filthy heathen. We all reap what we have sown.

Insulting, isn't it?
