Jesus purchased us all with His blood. He owns us all. He can do with us as He sees fit. He does not need to behave according to your ideas of justice. His ways are higher than your ways. What makes you qualified to critique our Lord's action and to direct Him?

So, do you think God desires/wills everything that ever happens?

PaulThomson said: I say, "Every part of a translation that accurately conveys what God understood the original text to be saying, is the word of God. Anything in a translation that does not accurately convey what God had in mind when He guided the original scribe, is not the word of God." No...

God is comprised of three Persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Because of Jesus' sacrifice, God has handed over judgment to the Son. The Father judges no one any more. So, the sacrifice was efficacious in gaining the Father's forgiveness. However, Jesus, as the Son of Man, is authorised to and...

We seem to agree then, that God does not get His own way in every instance all the time.

Jesus' sacrifice satisfied the Father and Holy Spirit, who have in response handed over all judgment to the Son. Jesus will judge however He sees fit. It will not be the Father or the Holy Spirit judging on the last day.

I say, "Every part of a translation that accurately conveys what God understood the original text to be saying, is the word of God. Anything in a translation that does not accurately convey what God had in mind when He guided the original scribe, is not the word of God."

Or one could say, "If faith is not a good work, then unbelief is not an evil work. Sins are evil works performed out of unbelief. Good works are works done out of faith."

According to the Bible, God does not always get His way. God is many times described in the pages of scripture as disappointed that what He wants does not happen. You seem to think that your metaphysical presuppositions about what a God you would consider worthy of worship should be like, trump...

Yes.

God is humble. God is love. God does not always demand His own way.

You're a hoot, friend. You take ONE verse out of a case laid by God against Job that goes for 130 verses, and claim that that one verse is the crux of God's argument: 40:8 Will you completely negate My justice/judgment/ordinance/decision (MiShPaTh/krima), Will you condemn Me that you may be...

Satan tried to goad God into Himself afflicting Job. God would not do that. Satan was claiming the the only reason Job was willingly serving God was because God was protecting him from Satan, who wanted to steal, kill and destroy Job. God allowed Satan to assail Job to show Satan that God could...

You're ignoring chapter 38 and 39, 71 verses of immediate context, which catalogues the extensive ignorance and impotence of Job on many issues, to which God then invites Job to respond in v. 40:1 saying: "Shall he that contends with the Almighty instruct Him? He that reproves God, let Him...

Apparently, according to your exegesis of Genesis 6, The angel Gabriel must have had sex with Mary. Luke 1:28 And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women. Joseph came in unto Pharaoh (Gen. 41:14), Moses and...

You are assuming that Satan had not noticed Job, and God's question was God putting Satan's focus onto Job. However, another possibility is that God was well aware that Satan had been obsessed with Job, and had been looking for some way to get through the hedge of protection God had erected...

I did not say that Job spoke no truth anywhere in the book. After He was confronted by God, He came to his senses and acknowledged the truth. But before that He was speaking a mixture of flesh and tradition, which it is not wise to assume is spiritually correct. No. Not everything Job says in...

You are merely presupposing the truth of LOUPI and rejecting the truth because it conflicts with the presuppositions of LOUPI. Circular reasoning is a logical fallacy. Man must cooperate with God to inherit what God promises to those who love Him.

I get that. But not all who left Egypt by God's power, one step in the process of their salvation, arrived at the end of the process of salvation, entry into Canaan and establishment in peace within the land. The exodus in not a TYPE of your LOUPI Doctrines of Grease. Not all the elect, whom you...

That is your Calvinist pretext inferred from misinterpreting proof-texts out of context. Nowhere does scripture actually say that Adam's sin is imputed to us. It says that the physical consequence of Adam's sin, mortality, comes upon all his descendants. Rom.5: 12 Wherefore, as by one man sin...
