In the Beginning ,
God created man out of love. Gave him a home (eden) , a wife (eve) and material comfort.
Then gave him the throne of the planet (god of this world).
Then satan came on the scene . Man sinned fell,lost eden etc
but most especially, man provoked God. God judged man. Man got badly burnt in the process.
But the sin thing is that man with his own hands , brought about his downfall.

Sodom and gomorrah,
The own the trademark and tradename "sodomy".
They were so vile,that strangers were not safe.
The smoke of their sins was hitting heaven day in day out.
The stench was offensive.
Until, one day, God himself had to come down!!
And God had to end it all.
Turning a man into a female type,
got an entire race, obliterated.
Satan got his laugh, souls went to hell.


Then there was Abraham.
Abraham went into Hagar,
he had his son (thru logic),
but it opened a can of worms
- we are still lamenting today (boko haram, palestines,gaza )
man got his a*rse really fried.

There was david,
Satan got him to roll in the sack with bathsheba.
Just a tumble. Nothing serious.
But God judged David.
David lost the child.
David's own son would sleep with all his wives in public (humiliation)
David got his ass fried.

There was the world in noah's time.
Devil got men to sin so intensely
God drowned out the whole world , save for Noah and his family.
The devil ,knew sin would really rankle God.
He knew what would get God angry.
And he got men, doing it so intensely, God had to say "NO, I can't take it anymore".
God wiped out an entire planet.

Solomon,
He had wisdom and great wealth.
But he was a chronic womaniser.
He got so into women and idol worship,
that his generation lost the seat of king ship.
Out of 12 tribes only 2 were controlled by his descendants.
Sin cost his lineage the throne.
God had wanted to establish his father, David, descendants on the whole of tribes of isreal.

Achan,
He saw gold and lusted after some.
He took some for himself. No one would find out.
But it cost him far more than he anticipated.
Just that little gold he was keeping for himself, abegi . Na small thingi.
really?
He not only lost his life, All his family was executed with him!
the cost of that little sin.

Gehazi,
He was a faithful servant to the powerful prophet.
His descendant would have grown up great and powerful men of God or prominence.
But he wanted a lil apparel. Some of the goodies for his spiritual work.
He persuaded to general to go take a dip in the river.
He was instrumental to causing a miracle to occur.
But alas, his lust was too much. He lied, got his booty and all would be well.
Well, it cost far more than he ever imagined.
God honoured the curse of his master and leprosy became him. Not only him,
but his descendants!!

Eli,
Eli's son were having fun.
Sleeping around, disrepecting the sacrifices.
They were the big swags nobody could tell them what to do.
But their sin provoked God and he pronounced judgement on them.
Judgement so severe.
God changed his mind about establishing Eli's lineage as a generation of priests!
He lost his sons in battle.
He died from heartbreak.
It was just judgement judgement judgement raining down on his family.

How about Judas,
He just wanted to make some money.
After all, Jesus was the messaiah, and He would free himself from his captors.
He had previously been dipping into the treasury.
It went too far when he sold the Master.
He was so heart broken , he killed himself..
What was worst was ,if he had known, that the names of the original 12 would
be immortalized on the building of heaven,for all eternity,
and that they'd be responsible for experiencing the first wave of the outpouring of the holy spirit
after the ascension of Jesus, He would have never fallen so cheap for mere 30 shekels of metal.
He lives to regret his decision into all eternity.

Moses,
Great and mighty moses.
He led the children of isreal out of Egypt.
By his hand , God did great and mighty miracles.
But his anger was too much.
The devil stocked him. The devil, knew that was his achilles heels
and if he could push him enough, he'd eventually, get him to incur God's wrath.
The devil scored one, when he got him so mad that he broke the tablets of stone bearing the commandments!
Then at the rock, he pushed him over the edge- he smote the rock in anger instead of speak to it.
The result?
He saw the promise land but never entered.
God smoked his a.ss.
He almost lost heaven!!

The Children of Isreal,
If satan had any great victory to gloat over,it was the ironic fate of the children of Isreal.
He had them locked up under a tyrannical dictator as slaves for life.
God's own people, serving under bondage.
But God delivered them.
Satan stirred pharoah, to chase them. But God ambushed pharoah.
There was no strategy that could work against God.
But if God is provoked enough, He will rain judgement on the provoker.
So satan got the isrealite mocking , murmuring threatening , complaining.
The whined gripped and wailed about how God was so wicked.
God really had enough of them.
Finally it was too much, God retorted "As you have spoken in my ears so will be unto you"
"You said you will all die in the wilderness"
So will it be.
And so was it!!
Of an entire nation, none of adult age entered the promised land ,save for Caleb and Joshua!!
God smoked their a.ss!!!

Whatabout today?
His strategy hasnt changed.
Se.x is an epidemic.
People are doing it like rats and in odd places. More and more shamelessly.
Women are dressing more and more provocatively.
Homosexuality is on the rise.
Murder,violence, is normal.
What of the love of money,
Satan is stoking the fire, pressing men to incense God,
But for the blood of Jesus,which pleads mercy for man.
But even with that, God is so assaulted with extreme depravity.
Men are openly insulting,abusing and mocking God!!
God have mercy.
But God will stand it longer no more!!-
He'll light his torch and fire man.
He'll load his gun and blow man away.

Stay off the sin dope. There's judgement coming.
God will help us in Jesus Name.

Why will a Loving God who created an imperfect man in his own image want to smoke his creature just because of mere sin?

Very illogical.

Only if you cannot accept Yahweh as the narcissistic, bloodthirsty, genocidal, mass-raping, petty, vengeful, overbearing and needy fiend he clearly explains himself to be in the bible.

Your faith is weak.

So many false Christians...

Sooo illogical.... Where is true justice if a man will be punished for trillions of years for a sin committed withing a short lifespan of 60-70 years?,

This doctrine have one source, it's surely from the wicked one the devil. Not from a Loving God who despise burning his creations with fire - -, Jeremiah 7:31
