Even a nihilist is closer to God than you are, because, at the very least, a nihilist refuses to lie to themselves intellectually about reality. They understand that if there is no God, what would follow. You say, "There is no God," yet think and live as though nothing follows. You are detestable in His eyes.Who does God love? God loves the one who is true to himself, to others and to God. He loves the one with humility, the one who says, "I don't know if there is a God, but I hope so." This is the kind of person God seeks, and this is the kind of person who is called to seek God. And if you do seek Him, He will answer you, and you will find Him.The self is the greatest enemy of the truth, and anyone who has the self as the center will never find the truth, because the self will always do what the self desires. Until there is something higher than the self, it has no reason to give up its allegiance to desire.You will ask, "What do I want?" or "What benefits me?" or "How should it be?" instead of asking, "How it actually is?" because this question threatens the self.And until you let the self die, you will never live.

>>543948430there is no god, you just suffer from a mental illness and delusion.

God definitely created this world and it’s perfection and nature. Everyone seems to have different opinions on Gods role in ancient human history until today
>>543949033>God definitely created this worldnope>and it’s perfectionits not perfect in any way
>>543949057I think nature is perfect. From where I sit i can’t picture anything more perfect
>>543949057>its not perfect in any wayIt persists and self regulates regardless of what anyone wants to do. Seems perfect to me
>>543949125>>543949240maybe look up in a dictionary what the word "perfect" means.
>>543949033>>543949057>>543949125>>543949240>>543949340Everything He made is perfect. The imperfections arise from what we do, not from what He did. The creation is fighting back against what the human is doing to it. If the human lived according to the truth and not the self, this would not be happening.
>>543949340>muh dik….tionaryLoser rebuttal but k
Nihilism and atheism are not mutually exclusive.Your entire post falls apart and is worthless. Stop spamming
God is supposed to be benevolent yet kills on a whim and fucks with people by telling them to kill their son only to say 'psyche' right before.Nah, if the old testament is included the Christian god is a dick.Also move this religious trash back to /his/. It's not political.
>>543949376>Everything He made is perfect.another retard who doesnt know what the word means.>>543949394learn english pablo
>>543949510What’s perfect according to your dictionary? Some gay shit like a black hole mr neil degrasse Tyson? Or some computer AI model? Or the best: nothing can truly be perfect ever. Cringe. Natures intelligent design is perfect
>>543949632>dumb nigger does not even know what a dictionary is or how to look up the meaning of words or what words in his language meanlol
>>543949692Cope. Appeal to authority bullshit it means what I want it to mean
>>543949416>le god is ebil even though im an atheist and have no objective morality to measure byReddit level take.
>>543948430Why would God create such a convoluted system where I have to believe in him, but there's no way to actually know or be sure about it. Why play peek-a-boo?
>>543949837I don’t know for sure. But according to the New Testament it’s a test of all humanity
>>543949783you sound jewish or retarded, you know words have meanings, you cant change the meanings of these words because of how you feel about it. or are you a tranny?maybe go back to africa you nigger and make your primitive clicking sounds. is probably better suited for you.
>>543949917Doesn't God know what's happening in the future (prophecy)? And doesn't he know what we are all thinking? So what is the point of a test?
Nobody's listening
>>543949410>>543949837
>>543950058Yeah the story is already written all of evil will get BTFO including people who act in certain ways or believe certain things during their lives. So the test is to be on the right side of that and follow Jesus teachings to obey God. If you’ve been doing bad to seek forgiveness and be humble about it
>>543949837>>543949917You say, "Why did God create evil?" But have you ever asked: "What does it mean to be free?"God could have created you in such a way where you serve Him because you have no other choice, but where is the freedom in that? You say, "God is a tyrant," yet the God you are asking for is actually a tyrant.The God we worship created man to be free and to be able to choose Him freely, because he can recognize the good in God. Good recognizes good. If you cannot recognize the good in God, what are you?God did not have to create evil, nor does evil have existence or life of its own. Evil comes to life through you, when a being with free will can either choose to align themselves with the good, or that which is not, and it chooses to go against the good. This is when evil is born, through the human will.
>>543950201christcucks wash the feet of niggers instead of genociding them.
>>543950252It’s not a team sport faggot. It’s an individual journey. if you’re a fan of the Munich femboys rugby team you don’t have to agree with what every other fan does
>>543950058>he doesn't know how free will worksyou make your own destiny with your choices, God knows every possible path your life can take but you are the one who ultimately decides which path you takeJesus tells you to repent and follow him, he doesn't make you do it. It is your choice to go to hell.Jesus was very clear about who goes to hell and who goes to heaven and how/why, he summed it up:>"I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. I will give of the fountain of the water of life freely to him who thirsts. He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son. But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death." – Jesus (Revelation 21)
>>543950365ok show me the christcucks that genocide niggers.
>>543948430>The self is the greatest enemy of the truthYou are a worthless piece of lying shit. The self is the truth.
Sorry I don't believe jewish fables like cuckstianity or the holohoax
>>543948430>a nihilist refuses to lie to themselves intellectually about reality. They understand that if there is no God, what would follow. You say, "There is no God," yet think and live as though nothing follows....so if no God, then no material reality and no survival instinct and nothing is true and everything is permitted? Why would that follow? If I can imagine myself at least one day in the future my mere self-interest is enough to say yes to a whole host of morals and desires in full contrast to any nihilist who deserves the term. Which usually is nobody, "nihilist" is just a label philosophers and theologians throw at people they don't like to say they're evil.The language is extremely slapdash around God, on purpose. God is everything or everything good or everything beautiful, etc etc, with no clear boundaries on the definition, which is purposefully to blur the ideas of the good things in life with the idea of God, which then creates a punishment mechanism for disbelief, that you'll lose all the good things with him. So show up on Sunday and pay us rent for a connection to all the good things in life, or else.Rent is not necessary to experience the good things in life, nor is it necessary to want them. This is the most obvious point and it's the one most screamingly rejected by theists; it's easier to fool someone than to convince him he's been fooled. Now go pay your spirit rent.

>>543949416Now say satan is a retard and isn't real.
>>543949826Morality is subjective not objective, also your morality comes from a book written by men, three decades after your god died and supposedly rose from the dead.

Fucking tired of you Jeets.Satan is retarded. You're retarded. God is retarded.And yet (You) are unfortunately the only real one. Though I wish it weren't so.
>>543950782>supposedly roseHe did and his tomb is empty to this day because he is still alive. You don't split history into two time periods if you didn't do something important enough to make the world want to start counting the years until your return.

>>543950974Didn't say satan wasn't real faggot.
The outward action doesn't change the inward being; the outward action flows from and reveals the inward being. Someone who does evil did not just happen to do evil; there is evil in them, and that is why they do evil, as it is said: "A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in him, and an evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in him. For the mouth speaks what the heart is full of."This is not to say that they cannot turn from their ways. In fact, this is what grace is for: so that when you find yourselves doing what is not right, you recognize and acknowledge it, bring it before God, and grow from it. It is precisely grace that allows growth to happen. Condemnation leads to stagnation; grace and love lead to transformation.This is what you are here for: to grow in the spirit. This life is for becoming, but the life to come is for being. Therefore, make it your practice that you do not beat yourselves down whenever you fall, but that you get back up and learn from it. This is why it is said, "He took up our infirmities and bore our diseases."Know that you are already forgiven, and that I love you, even as God loves you. And do not listen to the Pharisees who condemn you to hell. Though they do many works, they will never grow, because their security is in their works, not in their love for what is good.Our law is God's nature revealed through Christ.
>>543951043>Unable to extrapolateLike I said. For morons.
