Re: WHAT IS GOD WAITING FOR |
bob young said on Dec 29, 3:04 am:
Why would a god use a book designed, printed and
written by humans to spread it's words ?
God is the ultimate author of the Bible.
"For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of
man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by
the Holy Ghost" (2 Peter 1:21).
"All scripture is given by inspiration of God"
(2 Timothy 3:16).
"Thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye
received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye
received it not as the word of men, but as it is in
truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh
also in you that believe" (1 Thessalonians 2:13).

Bill M said on Dec 29, 5:36 am:
You seem totally unaware that their are hundreds of
god/religious beliefs with many of them supported
by religious documents other than your Bible. What
objective verifiable evidence do you have that your
god and Bibles are true and all the others are
fakes?
-For Christians, their faith itself is the evidence.
"Faith is ... the evidence" (Hebrews 11:1).
-For true Christian faith is not obtained through
any intellectual cogitations, but through a
miraculous gift from God to those He chooses.
"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that
not of yourselves: it is the gift of God"
(Ephesians 2:8).
"Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto
me, except it were given unto him of my Father"
(John 6:65). "No man can come to me, except the
-Father which hath sent me draw him" (John 6:44).
Bill M asked:
Why does your god permit most of the world to be
misled by all these fakes?
God has chosen to give His gift of faith to only a
relatively few people.
"For many be called, but few chosen" (Matthew 20:16).
"Narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few
there be that find it" (Matthew 7:14).

Ps 14:1; 53:1
The fool says in his heart, "There is no God ." (NIV)
Ps 53:1
The fool says in his heart, "There is no God." They are corrupt, and their
ways are vile; there is no one who does good. (NIV)
[Atheists, whether in opinion or practice, are the greatest fools in the
world. Those that do not seek God do not understand; they are like
brute-beasts that have no understanding; for man is distinguished from the
brutes, not so much by the powers of reason as by a capacity for religion.
The workers of iniquity, whatever they pretend to, have no knowledge; those
may truly be said to know nothing that do not know God, v. 4. (from Matthew
Henry's Commentary on the Whole Bible: New Modern Edition)]
Prov 6:16-17
There are six things the Lord hates...a lying tongue... (NIV)
Prov 10:18
He who conceals his hatred has lying lips, and whoever spreads slander is a
fool. (NIV)
Prov 10:23
A fool finds pleasure in evil conduct, but a man of understanding delights
in wisdom. (NIV)
Prov 12:16
A fool shows his annoyance at once, but a prudent man overlooks an insult.
(NIV)
Prov 12:22
The Lord detests lying lips, but he delights in men who are truthful. (NIV)
Prov 13:16
Every prudent man acts out of knowledge, but a fool exposes his folly. (NIV)
Prov 14:8
The wisdom of the prudent is to give thought to their ways, but the folly of
fools is deception. (NIV)
Prov 14:16
A wise man fears the Lord and shuns evil, but a fool is hotheaded and
reckless. (NIV)
Prov 14:24
The wealth of the wise is their crown, but the folly of fools yields folly.
(NIV)
Prov 15:2
The tongue of the wise commends knowledge, but the mouth of the fool gushes
folly. (NIV)
Prov 15:7
The lips of the wise spread knowledge; not so the hearts of fools. (NIV)
Prov 18:2
A fool finds no pleasure in understanding but delights in airing his own
opinions. (NIV)
Prov 23:9
Do not speak to a fool, for he will scorn the wisdom of your words. (NIV)
Prov 26:4
Do not answer a fool according to his folly, or you will be like him
yourself. (NIV)
Prov 26:11
As a dog returns to its vomit, so a fool repeats his folly. (NIV)
Prov 27:3
Stone is heavy and sand a burden, but provocation by a fool is heavier than
both. (NIV)
Prov 27:22
Though you grind a fool in a mortar, grinding him like grain with a pestle,
you will not remove his folly from him. (NIV)
Eccl 7:5
It is better to heed a wise man's rebuke than to listen to the song of
fools. (NIV)
Eccl 7:6
Like the crackling of thorns under the pot, so is the laughter of fools.
This too is meaningless. (NIV)
Eccl 7:9
Do not be quickly provoked in your spirit, for anger resides in the lap of
fools. (NIV)
Rom 1:22
Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools... (NIV)
It's interesting that those God calls fools and liars are not intelligent
enough to figure out why I don't respond with anything other than scripture
with them. God was right about them when He said that "although they claimed
to be wise, they became fools."
May God bless,

God is in danger of hell fire.
Matthew 5:22
But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without
a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to
his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever
shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.
May God bless,
Would be better if God would change his ways for the better.
