Merged A God of Love / The Living God

SOUNDS LIKE A KILLER

OF HUMANS

Not to put too fine a point on it, but... didn't your God of love not only command the genocide of multiple peoples, but also kill all of humanity himself, except for about 8 people? And that's according to the stories that were supposed to make him look good...

COME ON BROTHER . . .SENDING HIS SON TO DIE . . WHILE HE IS ENJOYING HIS "POPCORN AND COOKIES"

He loves us so much that he arranged to have his beloved Son tortured to death, just to show us how much He loves us. And how He treats those He loves.

And also because we're dirty little sinners, and somebody had to pay for that. And now He can forgive us and not condemn us to eternal torture. Because He had His Son tortured to death so He wouldn't have to do that to us. Because He has to do what He has to do. Unless somebody gets tortured to death, which changes everything.

His mercy is exceeded only by His mighty reasoning. It all makes perfect sense once you understand how He thinks.

A father . . . sending his son while he is enjoying his "godly life" up there . . .does not seem like much of a father.

We all assumed you were talking about the Christian god until now... But you appear to condemn him, so you might not be talking about YHWH and Jesus...

Who is this true god of yours?

See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him.

Ok . .. seems like something here . . .making us His children . . ..taking us out of our human existence to his godly one. That is something. So then making us gods too.

Sounds very good. I would like to be that . . .having Him as my Father . . .looking up at Him . . knowing as He is so am I. And when I am fully grown being the same now . . .can restore this dying earth . . or maybe make another one for everybody . . .seeing the universe is so big . . maybe even make one for every family . . .yep . . great.

So this must be the True God because all the others like to look down on us . . .being better and stronger etc. That doesn't sound like much love to me.

Ok . . so if He is our Father . . . how do we now get out of this human live and into His . . .I mean . . .if i was a dog how do I now get to be a human being.

I wonder why, whenever the "God is Love" premise is brought up, those that support it can only dredge up scriptural quotations as "evidence" for their position. Why not present real-life examples? Are modern-day instances of God being Love so scarce that moldy text cherry-picked from ancient tomes (tomes which, by the way, also portray God as a fickle, cruel and anxious beast) remains the best possible testimony?

This is now a good one.

"Big dog" said something that looks to me like a true God of love. One taking human beings out of their "low specie" life into his grand godly life. So . . .we should see some gods walking around . . .and then it will not be so difficult to belief for a skeptic that wants to see.

Love Johan
 
I took the name, "the god of love, a few days before you wrote." what is it you wish to ask? I guess you asked. I can't do that. I can't get you anything. But you will note, you are talking about this new god, and the hopelessness of it all, and asking yourself, what is real? Your answer is there. I am real. I suppose you doubt and and am leaning to thinking I am not.

Wait, God loves me? I'm a guy? Is God gay? That might explain a few things, now that I think of it.
Meanwhile, I'm waiting with bated breath to see of the OP comes back. Or maybe baited breath, I get confused.

Wow, you sure put up an incredible number of conditions on it. Like a lot! Like so many that there is no way that anyone could satisfy it, in fact it is almost like you don't want to consider the proof.

Let's do it!

Who will be the judges? Can't be me, or you... Or any of the other kool aid drinkers, so that excludes everyone in this thread.... Except the op!

Op will you judge?

Fantastic!

If you don't break the rules, you won't get banned. It's quite hard to be 'martyred' in this place...

Your responses are a bit... unclear.

Did you start your thread because you want to tell us about your God?
Did you start it because you're looking for a God?
If you want to tell us about your God, please do so. Your posts have been rather uninformative so far. We all assumed you were talking about the Christian God, but then you proceeded to tell us you don't think he's loving, and that a true God would make us Gods (perhaps Mormonism, though I doubt you're a Mormon).

So please help us with our confusion (And please don't post in all caps, it makes it look like you are screaming all the time. It's rude, and doesn't help with reading comprehension)

Who is your God? What do you want to tell us about him?
