God is Almighty, He can do anything He wills to do. so why do people think that God couldn't and didn't ,send His Son, Jesus to earth to die for our sins ? and why can They not be one and the same? do people think that God does not have the power to do all that the Bible says ?  I know that some just don't believe in God. But what about the people that believe in God, but not Jesus?

Because Gd had already told us that one person could not die for the sins of another!\n\nIn Deuteronomy 24:16 it specifically says this:\n\nDeuteronomy 24:16 The fathers shall not \nbe put to death for the children, neither \nshall the children be put to death for\nthe fathers: \nevery man shall be put to death for his \nown sin (eesh b’chet-o yumatu).\n\nIn Exodus 32:30-35, Moses tries to offer himself to atone for the sins of the people. To be written out of Gd's book, means to be written out of the Book of Life, which means Moses was asking to die for the sins of the People. Gd's response is No, it does not work that way, each man dies for his own sin:\n\nExodus 32:30-35 And it came to pass on the \nmorrow, that Moses said unto the people, \nYe have sinned a great sin: and now I will \ngo up unto the Etrnl; perhaps I shall make \nan atonement for your sin. And Moses \nreturned unto the Etrnl, and said, Oh, \nthis people have sinned a great sin, and \nhave made them gods of gold. Yet now, if \nthou wilt forgive their sin--; and if not, \nblot me, I pray thee, out of thy book \nwhich thou hast written. And the Etrnl \nsaid unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned \nagainst me, him will I blot out of my \nbook. \n\nThe whole of chapter 18 of the book of Ezekiel is about this idea, that no one can die for someone else's sin. Further, this chapter of Ezekiel teaches us that all we have to do for Gd's forgiveness is to stop doing the Bad and start doing the Good, and Gd will forgive us:::\n\nEzekiel 18:1-4; 20-24; 26-27 .....Behold, all \nsouls are mine; as the soul of the father, so \nalso the soul of the son is mine: the soul \nthat sinneth, it shall die. Eze 18:20 The soul \nthat sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not \nbear the iniquity of the father, neither shall \nthe father bear the iniquity of the son: the \nrighteousness of the righteous shall be upon \nhim, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be \nupon him. But if the wicked will turn from all \nhis sins that he hath committed, and keep all \nmy statutes, and do that which is lawful and \nright, he shall surely live, he shall not die. \nAll his transgressions that he hath committed, \nthey shall not be mentioned unto him: in his \nrighteousness that he hath done he shall live. \nHave I any pleasure at all that the wicked \nshould die? saith the Etrnl Gd: and not that \nhe should return from his ways, and live?.... \nEze 18:26 When a righteous man turneth away \nfrom his righteousness, and committeth \niniquity, and dieth in them; for his iniquity \nthat he hath done shall he die. Again, when \nthe wicked man turneth away from his \nwickedness that he hath committed, and doeth \nthat which is lawful and right, he shall save \nhis soul alive. \n\nSo, the Bible is clear, no one can die for the sins of another, and this means that Jesus cannot die for anyone else's sins.\n\nJews have always believed in Gd, and not in Jesus, because to believe in Jesus goes against all that Gd said for 2,000 years before.

God answers prayers of those people that have gotten right with God and have God first in their heart, Its a relationship. Signs of existance hmmmm how about us and the earth. Or do you think this was an accident, the human body is so complex it cant be just by chance!Have lots of doubts about God, Jesus, or the Bible? Most people who think about this do wonder "How do I know that what the Bible says is true?" At ---, we think that this is an excellent question deserving an excellent answer, and that's what we provide in our "Facts Behind the Faith" seminar. Contrary to what you may have heard, God doesn't ever expect us to have "blind faith." He has always proven what He has said, and He's done that conclusively. The only thing that separates Christianity from every other religion is that it can PROVE what it says to be true. No other religion can. We can prove logically, scientifically, and archaeologically that God must exist, that the Bible is directly from God, that Jesus was God's Son, and even that He rose from the dead. Sound impossible? Then you owe it to yourself to force us to prove it. We guarantee that you'll be amazed at what you learn, and you deserve PROOF. Let us give you some  Go to this site and check out the simnars

What you say just isn't true for many people.  People don't refuse faith; faith just doesn't exist for many people, especially thoughtful, rational-type people.  And you already know that it's not true that God always gives when asked; lots of times He doesn't.\n\nRE: Your Email (Yahoo wouln't let me respond directly):\n\nThanks Jenny.  I've read lots of the Bible growing up.  I have not decided "he doesn't exist."  But if He exists, he has not given me Faith.  To the contrary, He has given me a brain and a heart that do not lead me to Faith, even reading the Bible.  Who knows why, but that's the situation.  I can act like I have Faith, I can pretend I have Faith, but it would be a lie, and I can't just manufacture real Faith.  I'm sure it's very comforting to have Faith (regardless of whether it's well placed).

Here's another noodle-baker.  If God is all powerful and all-benevolent, why is there evil in the world at all?  Either he is not all powerful (if he were he would have no evil) or else is not all-benevolent. (He could wipe out evil but chooses to allow evil things to happen anyways, something a loving and good God would not allow.)\nTake your pick, either way God is not all-perfect.

Here's an even BETTER question...Why is it that through out mankind's history it's only been in the last 2000 years that people had the hope of being "saved" and why is it out of all the billions of people that have lived it's only the people that follow Jesus who will be "saved"...Since "God" sees all and knows all(according to people that "follow the bible") why did "God" just make a savior to appeal to only a tiny percent of the masses...If you look at is this way it seems "God" does not love everyone and is very discriminate and prejudice....

God is all-powerful; he can turn water into wine and cure the blind. Heck, he created the whole universe. So what makes you think he can't change the text of the bible written by the misguided kings, warlords and other misguided beings who wrote the bible? \n\nAnd I love a God who punished people for the slightest sin as depicted in the infallible bible. So much for the all-forgiving God. \n\nThank you God for making us kill the very people who discovered that the glorious earth You created is not flat.\n\nThank you God for condemning me and 20 billions of soul into hell for being misguided by satan you created. I would rather sit in hell then to be in heaven thinking about all the people suffering in hell, esp my loved ones and the people in the jungles of the third world who has not even heard of You or people who were brought up being a jew, muslim, hindu etc. For that reason, even if He does exist and offers me a place in heaven, i'd say no thanks because it wouldn't be much better in heaven either.

Can God almighty create a thing which he cannot destroy?\n\nGod cannot do anything and everything. There are so many things that God almighty cannot do. \n\nCan God be born? One of the characteristics of God is that He is not born. If we say that God almighty was born, then there was a time when He didn't exist. And if there was a time when He didn't exist, For Him to come into existence, somebody has to make Him exist. So there is somebody else who is really God not Him. If we say that God almighty cannot be born, we are also saying that The Creator cannot become His creation. Because creation means what is in need of a Creator. To you be a creature, means that there has to be someone who create you. So if God became His creation, that means He is now in need of a creator. THIS IS IMPOSSIBILITY AND ABSURDITY! \n\nCan God create a stone which is too heavy for Him to lift? \nGod almighty cannot be unjust. The moment when God become unjust, he ceases to be God. Because it's one of quality of God almighty that he is JUST.\n\nThe Qur’an says:\n"Allah is never unjust In the least degree." [Al-Qur’an 4:40] \n\nGod cannot be cruel. \n\nGod almighty cannot throw me out of his domain. He can obliterate me. He can kill me. He can vanish me. But he cannot throw me out of his domain. WHERE WILL HE THROW ME? Everything belongs to him. \n\nGod cannot create a tall-short man. Yes he can make a tall man short. But no longer will he remains tall. But you cant have a tall-short man. You can have a medium man, who is neither tall nor short. But you cant have a man who is tall and short at the same time. \n\nnowhere does the Quran says that God can do everything, Quran says in several places that God has the power over all things. There is world of a difference between "Allah can do everything and Allah have the power over everything"\nAllah says in holy Quran (85:16) \n"He does what He intends (or wills)"\n\nWhatever he intends he can do. But God does only Godly things. He does not do Ungodly things. \n\nWhen we muslims say "God almighty can do all things", we are talking about all things that are consistent in Him being God. Not included the absurdity, impossibility and the things which make "God" no longer "God".\n\n\n\nISLAM HAS LOGICAL ANSWER FOR THIS QUESTION\n\n\n\n\nEDIT >>>>>> ==============================...\n\n"His command when He desires a thing is just to say to it, “Be!” and it is." (Qur’an, 36: 82)

Very Interesting!\n\nNo i don't beleive that Jesus is a son of God!and yes i believe that Jesus performed many miracles with the help of God. But he was human just like us.\n\nAnd if anyone beleives this then please tell me :\n\n  If you had a child , would'nt you protect that child and save that child from harm ?\n\nSo why did God not save his "son" from the so called being nailed to the cross?\nI mean God is the Greatest ! so he can do anything .\n\nWhy would you believe in Gods "son"?\n\nWhy don't you believe in God the creator of everything in this universe ,everything below the earth , everything between the earth and the sky and everything above the sky?

Ok, well let me start by saying that God loves and cares for you... He sent His son Jesus to become a curse for you, and pay your punishment on the cross!  Gods master plan from the beginning was to have Jesus come and reunite the jews and gentiles(non jews).  We need to believe in Jesus because by doing so, we acknowledge Gods ultimate power and glory.  We are now saved by grace, meaning we dont work to get to heaven, we just do by beliving in Jesus and that God rasied him from the dead.  Again this all shows Gods ultimate power.  Christianity is the only religion that is not by works.  We dont work to get to God because we cant work.  There is no path to God or becoming a 'god', but God has giving us Jesus as a bridge to Him!\n\n\nGod has given us so many signs and wonders that He still works today.  Think of the times that we have been at the right place at the right time, or someone encouraged us when we really need it, or just look at creation, and it all shows the glory of God.\n\nThe bible says that we walk by faith and not by sight.  (blindly as you say) but its not all blind, we have the holy spirit to guide us and teach us.  If we could see God, it wouldnt be faith at all.  God didnt want everyone to see him and worship him because he gave us freedom of the will... He didnt want us to be robots, programmed to worship Him.  He loves us enough to give us freedom:)!!!!!\n\nwell i hope this helps and answers your question a little.. God bless :)

God is so powerful, he can even cause Internet trolls to (oh so cleverly, they think) copy and paste into Yahoo Answers some clever riddle they found on the Internet about big rocks or hot burritos; it is easy of course to frame up some nonsense question, a poor man's version of an Escher drawing, and demand that God fulfill it.\n\nThis one fails more easily than most, at least in terms of a Christian response. Here's how God, if he were not mindful of his own words to not "put the Lord your God to the test," could work it:\n\n1. God the Father creates a one ton rock, and drops it in Galilee.\n\n2. Christ the Son tries to move it using only natural means, and since Christ is both Fully God and Fully Man, his natural-only efforts, being human, do not succeed.\n\nVoila; copy-paste Internet troll foiled!!

The bible says "There a way that seems right to a man but in the end is death." Most people believe with as much sincerity as you may about God and the Holy Bible as they would about Allah or Buddha. I belief in Jesus Christ as God in the flesh, some say he was an angle, others would say he was just a man, and the ignorant would say he never existed.

It seems like people are avoiding the issue. What's being asked is if you will unquestioningly submit yourself to God. Whether you think God would want you to perform said action or would not be able to do this without you is not in question.\n\nIncident: God tells you to kill someone.\nYou are a self-admittedly insignificant being who could not begin to understand God. Whatever his motivation be, God has told you to do this.\n\nDo you comply?\n\n(My answer's no by the way, but I'm not religious so this question probably was not directed at me. I just think that some of the people passing judgement here are being hypocritical.)

Well. I think your right. god would not do what you described.\nGod, can do many things tho'.\n\nBe sure which god, God you have these feelings from.\n\n.

God only put us here to be toys of amusement for him. He enjoys watching people suffer. Just think about it for a minute...supposedly he is all-powerful, all-knowing, all-...whatever. Yet he allows this world to be infested with disease, famine, war, death, and horrors beyond imagination. Now, how can you call a god who does all these things loving and expect him to do anything for you. People who always turn to god to help them in their struggles are just trying to find someone else to fix their mistakes. They can't handle the fact that their god probably doesn't like them. God allows all these atrocities on earth to occur and doesn't lift a finger. The question you should really be asking is "Why do I worship a god that does not care?" God did not give us free will. And as far as free will in the respect to god goes, if it had not been for Satan, we would all be wandering around in complete servitude without even realizing we were slaves. By tempting Eve to eat that apple, if you believe the story, he gave us the ability to realize our slavery. Furthermore, anyone who says that we have free will given by god should examine their religion further. How can it be free will when he says that to disobey him will result in a tormenting eternity of fire and brimstone? Are these really choices...slavery or fire? I will thank God for nothing. My thanks go to the god of the underworld for giving me the knowledge to know these lies as they are.

Many different people have different beliefs. I believe that God is around no matter what your doing. He is even around when you think. God knows what you are going to do and who your going to do it with weather it be sex, education, theft, or murder before you do it. However, all things happen for a reason, even the bad things.
399966
I completely agree.  On the one hand they say God can't do anything to help people because he gave us free will and it is those who abuse free will that cause all the bad, but then on the other they go and petition God to help them.\n\nWTF?\n\nOh, but then when nothing comes of their prayers, they say "God gives you what you need, not what you want."  "God doesn't work on our timeframe."  Blah, blah, blah.  Seriously!  They have an explanation for everything!

Everyone has a choice, God does not "make" Muslims, etc. He may know someone will make choices that turns them into a Muslim, but God values our choices. Look, if God wanted to just let everyone into heaven that loved him, and cast away the rest into hell, he can do so WITHOUT putting us on earth first. But why would he let us be on earth when he knows we wont serve him anyway? Well imagine if you were created straight in hell... You could easily argue, "God I never had a choice to follow you!", but since you were on earth you DID have choices, and so you get to understand why you go to heaven or hell. Remember though, no one goes to hell if they doesn't deserve to be there according to God's judgement. So why didn't God create just Christians? Well, firstly that would be a form of force since we'd all be destined to go to heaven. Secondly, God might use the life of a non-believer to somehow affect another person into believing. If no one was criticising the Bible, for instance, you probably wouln't have historians and archeologists who back up the Biblical claims with as much evidence as possible. If you didn't have those scholars defending the Bible from skeptics, you might not have as many people who believe in the Bible. At the last, remember that God's knowledge and foresight exceeds are own, and what we may not think is "woth it" he does. Plus think about it, do you think us mere humans are worth the sufferings Jesus undertook? I don't want anyone suffering for me, but it just goes to show how sometimes God might do something we think is wrong, but to him it is extreme mercy and love.
