Did God laugh with the sinners?
If Jesus is God, why can't he exist in the presence of sin?

When i see statements like this by Christian. "God can't abide sin".
Sin can't exist in God presence." However, unless you believe that
everyone around Jesus was sinless or that Jesus wasn't God, God in the
form of Jesus was in the presence of sin. Jesus ate.laugh and drank
with sinners (tax collectors, prostitutes)
Jesus is still God, as far as I can understand. Jesus appeared after
his resurrection, supposedly, to sinful people. Why can't Jesus (God)
be in the presence of sin now, when according to the New Testament he
was both before and after his resurrection?

Jesus somehow managed to live with people who supposedly willingly
continued in sin, though. Right? For thirty-three years he somehow
managed to live in Palestine with tons of sinful/rebellious people.
One would think, based on this, that maybe Jesus/God could live with
sinners in the afterlife too?

This world is full of sin, so by your logic, God can't come anywhere
near this world.
If there's an explanation of this, I'd love to hear it.

She was repentant.
Luke 7:37-39
37 And, behold, a woman in the city, which was a sinner, when she knew that
Jesus sat at meat in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster box of
ointment,
38 And stood at his feet behind him weeping, and began to wash his feet with
tears, and did wipe them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet,
and anointed them with the ointment.
39 Now when the Pharisee which had bidden him saw it, he spake within
himself, saying, This man, if he were a prophet, would have known who and
what manner of woman this is that toucheth him: for she is a sinner.
KJV

And where were Tax collectors called sinners??

Matt 9:10
10 And it came to pass, as Jesus sat at meat in the house, behold, many
publicans and sinners came and sat down with him and his disciples.
KJV
Matt 18:17
17 And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it unto the church: but if he
neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and a
publican.
KJV
Luke 18:13
13 And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his
eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a
sinner.

God is completely lacking in any sense of humor whatsover.
He's very quick to get angry and has a big problem with jealousy.

Well, if the story is true, Jesus himself seemed to rather enjoy the
presence of sinners, staying in their homes and partying with them.
He was in no way like his Father, the dour, sour, disciplinarian
hiding in His heavenly lair.

Yes, He did. However, you're asking questions that Christians will only
shrug off as "mysteries." They can only give you answers requiring
magical thinking instead of logic.

Well, Jesus's father is an entirely different personality, about as anal
as you can get. The old man thinks nothing of burning people alive
for eternity or wiping out entire civilizations as casually as one might
swat a fly. Jesus would get all depressed out it and maybe cry a little
bit, the old man just wipes the blood off his sword and then goes and
cuts off another infidel's head.

This world is full of sin, so by your logic, God can't come anywhere

Well, that's one explanation as to why we've not seen hide or hair of
Jahweh for thousands of years.

Both the Father and I have a great sense of humor, and do laugh at what we
consider humorous, however, because the world is SO full of evil, and we
have to endure and bear so much of it, our anger is also realized.

If you and the Father were to share just a little of that humour with us
then we would all spend less time arguing about you both and we might have
some chance of getting along with each other and doing some good in the
world.
Consider this: Does a comedian refuse to do any acts because the world is so
evil? No. He does what he does to create harmony so there won't be so much
evil. Why don't you and the Father start doing something instead of just
sitting up there and constantly whining about how bad we humans are? Talk
about lame excuses.
Why don't you persuade your Father to start creating some much needed
harmony in this world so people spend less time arguing over whose god is
better than who's and who's smarter and richer and more powerful than who?

We don't
have a big problem with jealousy, we just prefer our creation to
appreciate
and respect what we have done and given and not give our glory to others,
who did NOTHING.

If you would spend less time trying to gain glory and more time giving love
then you'd get both without any extra effort.
Does a parent have to tell their child to appreciate and respect them?
No, the child usually does it naturally, unless the parent is a bad parent
and mistreats them.
Most people like the idea of having a god and would love him, but you can't
have a god who can never be found when needed and is so hard to communicate
with and who's ways cannot be understood, not to mention who's
semi-autobiography is almost impossible to understand without the services
of an invisible man translator known as the 'Holy Spirit'.

No, it was a burden and very painful dwelling with sinners.

That's not the picture Jesus paints. He apparently did it out of love, and
when one does something out of love it's a pleasure.
And saying that it was a burden being with sinners is like a doctor saying
it's a burden being with the sick. Many doctors and nurse's love their work.
They love helping and healing people.

I endured it
because I had to, to teach them the ways and will of God.

You did it against your will?
You mean you had no free will and you were forced to do what you did?
Your Father sounds like a tyrant.

I made the best of
what I had to deal with. And I suggest you be very careful what you say
about the Father, for it is very clear that you don't KNOW HIM whatsoever
and I will NOT tolerate such blatant disrespect, dishonor and arrogance
against Him. The Father is the most wonderful, amazing, awesome, loving,
intelligent, wise, knowledgeable, powerful, majestic, awesome and great
person, and you are DUNG and slime, so go back under the rock that you
crawled out of.

You talk about God being wonderful, amazing, awesome, loving etc. but your
words and his words reflect anything but love. What I see is coercion,
slavery and general abuse and finger pointing.
You and your Father speak with a fork tongue. You say one thing and do
another.
You advocate love and compassion but then you threaten and curse like a
demon.
Be aware. We know that Lucifer was let loose on this world, and therefore
the god of the bible is likely to be Lucifer, and the bible his book.
The brain users of this world will not tolerate much more of this
tomfoolery.

More threats of violence from our loving and gracious god.
Have you no love?
Why is god so sensitive to small insults? A superior mind shouldn't be fazed
by anything that a small creature can utter, unless he has an ego that can
be bruised.
Lucifer has an ego by the way.

It is
called JUSTICE.

You call it justice to rationalize your god's out of control rage and thirst
for revenge at failing to successfully secure another worship slave.

And I am happy to throw YOU into hell to be beaten, abused
and tortured by devils and demons and never blink an eye about it just for
speaking about my Father with your arrogant disrespect.

Respect has to be earned, it cannot be forced through threats of physical
violence.
Hasn't the Christian god learned that yet? Tisk tisk.
If he wants respect then he should do good things instead of just making
threats and lashing out intermittently with calamities. That's no way to win
friends and influence people. And don't try to say that he's run out of
patience and he's through with being nice because he's been doing all those
bad things right from the start.

Yes, He did. However, you're asking questions that Christians will only
shrug off as "mysteries." They can only give you answers requiring
magical thinking instead of logic.

Jesus is still God, as far as I can understand. Jesus appeared after
his resurrection, supposedly, to sinful people. Why can't Jesus (God)
be in the presence of sin now, when according to the New Testament he
was both before and after his resurrection?


<sigh> it's just one of those mysteries again.

Jesus somehow managed to live with people who supposedly willingly
continued in sin, though. Right? For thirty-three years he somehow
managed to live in Palestine with tons of sinful/rebellious people.
One would think, based on this, that maybe Jesus/God could live with
sinners in the afterlife too?


Well, Jesus's father is an entirely different personality, about as anal
as you can get. The old man thinks nothing of burning people alive
for eternity or wiping out entire civilizations as casually as one might
swat a fly. Jesus would get all depressed out it and maybe cry a little
bit, the old man just wipes the blood off his sword and then goes and
cuts off another infidel's head.

This world is full of sin, so by your logic, God can't come anywhere
near this world.


Well, that's one explanation as to why we've not seen hide or hair of
Jahweh for thousands of years.

If there's an explanation of this, I'd love to hear it.


The only explanations you'll get will be special pleading, or magical

My friend, you are "straining at a gnat and swallowing a camel." Christians

Well, if the story is true, Jesus himself seemed to rather enjoy the
presence of sinners, staying in their homes and partying with them.
He was in no way like his Father, the dour, sour, disciplinarian
hiding in His heavenly lair.

Au contraire! Jesus was the ultimate corrective to various miskewed notions
about the Father found in the Old Testament. He was the final and full
revelation of what God is really like. Christians don't say Jesus is like
God, but rather God is like Jesus.

When i see statements like this by Christian. "God can't abide sin".
Sin can't exist in God presence."

Let us say that sin becomes most uncomfortable in the presence of God. It
is sin that can't abide God or continue to exist in His presence.

However, unless you believe that

everyone around Jesus was sinless or that Jesus wasn't God, God in the

wholly Christian concept.) How is going against the 'desires' of a
mythical figure detrimental to anything?

God has in mind to make you completely whole and well again, no matter how long

You can't change someone's heart and mind for them.
A person's heart is one of the few things that is truly theirs.
If you change it for them then it will no longer be their own heart of
hearts.
The best way to do it is to inspire them to change it themselves. Doing it
any other way would violate ones free will by washing their brain to your
way of thinking.

Living amongst sinners
was a great burden and very painful, as it is for me today, but the work
had
to be done and so I did it.

You never had any love for humans in the first place did you? Admit it.

righteous and blameless, so that they can be redeemed back into heaven to

The Father cannot tolerate sin or evil, and

The Father cannot tolerate humans and human nature and never could.
Why don't you just come out and say it.

thus that is why He sent me to bear that burden, and determine who serves
God, is righteous, holy and pure and who does not serve God and is sinful,
wicked and evil, so that I will NOT allow anyone with iniquity or sin near
Him.

Your Father needs to learn to become a little more tolerant, otherwise he's
going to continue to be a very lonely old man into eternity.

I asked,
Tell us Truth Hunter, where did Jesus eat, laugh and drink with a
prostitute?
Can you quote a chapter and verse??
And Dore comes back with this:
She was repentant.
Luke 7:37-39
37 And, behold, a woman in the city, which was a sinner, when she knew that
Jesus sat at meat in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster box of
ointment,
38 And stood at his feet behind him weeping, and began to wash his feet with
tears, and did wipe them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet,
and anointed them with the ointment.
39 Now when the Pharisee which had bidden him saw it, he spake within
himself, saying, This man, if he were a prophet, would have known who and
what manner of woman this is that toucheth him: for she is a sinner.
KJV
I see mention of her being a sinner, but nothing at all about a prostitute??
I know it says that she toucheth hime, but that was wiping his feet with her
hair. I see nothing sexual in this, and certainly no mention of Jesus paying
her.
Nothing about her being a prostitute at all.
Just another inaccurate portrayal from religionists.
Then Dore fives us some quotes about publicans!! I guess we assume a
Publican was a tax collector.
Don't get me wrong, I won't argue that!!
But why was a tax collector a sinner??
Would they still be sinners today??
Interesting.

You can never get even a 'titter' out of god, let alone a laugh, because the
primitives who made him up were deadly serious.
No influential females either, except Mary and she was essential to support th
plot of the myth. It was a man's world then, so more proof, if any were needed,
that man was the maker of the myth.
