Would he? Or would he not?\n\nNow people, listen to me, you should not be ashamed to ask something, esp when it's about God.

I think he would be cool with it. Just not on Saturday. Do you think is Jerusalem Express Card would be declined?

If God wanted to leave absolutely no room for anyone to doubt or try to disprove His existance and authority, He could have done. His thoughts and ways are better than ours - we'd love everyone to just have to believe - but God gives everyone the choice. People don't want it to be true that there is a God - the implications are too big. Like recognising that yes there is actually right and wrong - people don't want to go there - remember Pharohs magicians who tried to explain away the wonders that were shown them in Egypt - they didn't want to acknowlege God either - its nothing fresh!  The reality of our Eternal God who controls everything in life and death is just more than folks can take - they want to "live a good life and be happy" They don't want to know about a God who will hold us responsible what we do with our lives, it just doesn't fit with their "lifestyle choice". They will either try to logically reason a way that it could possibly have happened without needing a God or they will just instantly dismiss these realities without further thought as just "fairy tales". Don't fret. Yes some people will try to explain things in a way that ignores God, they refuse to believe - creation itself cries out! Its of no suprise in one sense ... there is going to be both the sheep and the goats. Stand firm. One day every knee will bow, and every tongue confess that He Is LORD.

sorry i didn't get back to you.  this was not saying that God was a liar for we know God can never lie.  His promises are yeah and amen and also He is not slack concerning His promises.  What He says he will do he will do.  God can NEVER lie.  It is not possible for him to sin because He is Holy and Pure.  This particular passage of scripture was about a spirit(angel) that told God he would go and cause one of Ahab's prophets to lie to him and cause him to go into battle where he would ultimately be killed.  All things serve the Lord and even with deceipt, God can use these situations to serve His purposes.  We can see this in our own lives when things aren't going good or seem out of control, but we know God is on the throne and He is in control.  He can take any problem and make it a blessing for us if we will just wait for Him to shine through.  Keep studying his word and asking these questions.  It's how you will learn. And ask for the guidance of the Holy Spirit as you study His word.

You cannot ask questions like this for other people.  Each person's relationship with God is personal.

do not unless he asks. just pray for him. and if he does ask, prayer's still good part of the help.

No one can save you except Jesus and only if you ask Him.\n I see your point if they were open minded they could see you are just asking a question.

To each follower, his God is always better. It is better to imbibe Godly qualities to the extent possible, than disputing about the better one.. One may spend / waste a lifetime trying to choose a better God !

Atheist here (agnostic if considered deism and other non interventionist beings)\n\nI don't know why people answer whats' not being asked, if you don't feel like playing, why answer with something else?\n\nWell, if we are talking about the christian god, according to the belief, he already knows what's on my heart.\n\nAnyway, I am atheist because I am being honest with me and everyone around me. To say "I believe in god" would be a lie and I'd be an hypocrite.\n\nIf I have to give explanations to god, all I'd tell is "I honestly didn't believe you existed and I made a mistake", no further explanations needed. I'm sure that I live a moral life and I wouldn't feel like "excusing" me as if I've done something wrong.\n\nBye\n\nEDIT:\nI just saw what you proposed in another question: "People want to ease their conscience of sin by convincing themselves that there is no God."\n\nThat's a false assumption since I doubt you know what are everyone's motivations to do so. Does your religion allow you to judge people without proper knowledge?

NOT another GOD QUESTION.\nPlease forgive me your magnifessence holy sheep I'm truly sorry.

the basic premise of the question is in itself wrong, GOD aint everyone and everything, it is a part of him in each one of us and in things around us.\n\nso clearly a part cannot equal the whole entity, hence our pea brains as compared to HIS all encompassing knowledgeable self. \n\nso the situation you described is justified.\n\nas simple as that dear.

<*>Whether to follow the laws of man or God.\n\nStand up for what we believe\n\nIf we are ashamed of him He will be ashamed of us.

actually, God does whatever he pleases, so I think you can. \n\nIn fact, the Bible is plagued by "disturbing" episodes regarding people who ask for things that arent very honest. So I dont see a problem. God is god, he will do what he wants. And if you are religious, you will believe God has a higher plan, and "bending" the rules for you is part of that.

be careful what you ask for...God has a sense of humor but he does not like to be questioned or mocked

I'm neither Christian or Muslim so I do not attend religious meetings. However if I am running late for work I would probably ignore him. I am ashamed to admit that. But if I am not pressed for time I would take careful stock of his appearance, stop my busy mind and settle into a different energy space. Then I would try to seriously answer his question. I would try to answer his question from spirit because I would believe him to be a Guru and someone who had been placed in my path to teach me something. One never knows when the teacher will come to them and one never knows the shape or form they will take. So you must try to be open at all times. I would be likely to say in answer to his question that a rainbow is a vision for the eyes view of the earths aura. A snapshot if you will of some of the beautious colours the earth and its inhabitants exude. I also see it as an inspiration. People always stop and marvel at rainbows. They brighten up their day and awaken the innocent, hopeful child within us all. I would probably not use the word god but I would talk of love and the universal life force that we all spring from and to which we will ultimately return. In short if I am able I will do my best to communicate seriously with this shabily clothed individual.

There is and are no "best" responses. When we stand before God in judgement...maybe you can ask HIM ...yourself. Please invite me to witness that moment....

God would never command such a sinful act that pleases you so selfishly from His people.\n\nPeace.
