Religious people keep saying that the "creator" god is perfect. If that's true then why?

They'll tell you it's original sin. What I want to know is that if it's divine justice to punish an entire species for the sins of the ancestors, why aren't Christians proposing this as a means of jurisprudence? If your great grandfather killed his wife sixty years before you were born, YOU get to go to prison for it? If it's God's way, why don't Christians insist we do it on Earth?\n\nI REALLY hope I don't put ideas into some fanatic's head with that one....

God is not a created being. In the Bible God says to Moses... "I am".

That is like asking if he can create a wall that he can not destroy. And if He choose to make a mistake, then is it a mistake? Any time the question is "Can God..." then the answer is going to be an uneducated guess. We don't know.\n\nNow if the question was, does God make mistakes?, then the answer is no. He is the only being that is perfect and infallible. \n\nMost peoples answers to this question says more about themseleves then it does God. Our opinion of God does not effect Him, but it does effect our life and our existence after this life is over.

So many people ask this question.  God is the Creator.  He is NOT part of the Creation.  He is the Creator.  He was not created.  He is GOD.  That's what makes Him God.  He has always been.  He is not subject to time.  Time was also something He created.  He is the alpha and omega, the beginning and the end.  He has no beginning or end.  He is GOD.  He is bigger, and smarter, and holier than we can even fathom.

Yes, God is good, God is love and God is HOLY. \n\nSince God is not a human (God the Father is in no way a human) this would be akin to saying that the Judge who sentenced the child rapist to the chair is not good, unfair, etc.

I believe God wants us to know specifically who he is and how to get to him.  Therefore, he provides us Scriptures. I just can't believe we can make up a god of our own imagining and have it be the right one. Only one can be right, otherwise he would be contradicting himself.

By DEFINTION, God is good. \nAnything He does is good, never bad.\nTherefore, if He does something that *seems* bad to us, there is a good reason for it.

Well, it isn't a fallen creation, but a creation that fell.  Have you ever cooked something following exact directions, but it turned out awful.  Now imagine that God created the universe (according to the beliefs you suggested) without using any known recipe.  What are the chances that one or more of his creations would turn out less than perfect, for instance man.  Thus, God didn't create us to be fallen, but to be perfect, and someone in the beginning of mankind's life, screwed up big time.\nAre some of these people SERIOUS!  And all of you atheists and anti-religion people, go answer some questions that concern your realm of knowledge.  The asker is obviously religious, so telling him not to believe his beliefs is just obnoxious and tactless.

Who could possibly believe in a God who would condemn the unknowing to eternal damnation because they never had a chance to serve him?  That's not my definition of a God.  That's a dictator.  That's a madman.  Nope, the Christian God is a loving God who would take into account a person's background.  All those unknowings are safe for eternity.

your pastor is right.  God is the only God.  Jesus is but a creation of God.

I believe that God created everything in the universe.  I also believe that he takes an active role in the affiars of his creations.  Furthermore I believe that he loves all of his creations.

God does not judge anything ever so God does not see the world in terms of right and wrong.\n\nThese ideas are our creations and we try our best to create a God as confused as we are.\n\nLove and blessings Don

The verses you quoted are just one of many contridictions the Bible contains.  The most blatant one is the one that claims the Bible is the literal word of God.  If so, the Bible could not say anything which could even be the least bit ambiguous.  This of course accepts the premise that God is perfect.  Either God is imperfect, or the Bible is not God's\n literal word.

God didn't have any creators.  He was the first- there always has to be the first
