Says we should love our enemy, sends his to hellfire
Says we must forgive, like he forgived Adam and eve, The little Children mocking the bald Prophet, Moses, Cain, Solomon, Satan.
Says he is unchangeable, decline many things He use to accept in the Old Testament to create New Testament
Says we should not kill, drown the Whole earth, Killed his son, Kills little children, destroys Sodom and Gomorrah, even encourages killing, help Samson, David, Moses Etc to kill.
Says we shouldn't be jealous to one another but he is a jealous God
Tells us not to fear, says we should fear him

Ranchhoddas: Allah is God to some people. When these people go about killing people in Allah's name, do you question them?
Why or why not? I didn't insinuate it is wrong to question God and I never said we shouldn't question Him. Infact many in the Bible questioned Him and I do sometimes. There was a time I got angry with Him ![sad](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/sad.png) But since the creator has all the power, then who are we to question Him? He can do whatever He likes and whatever He deem fit and even if you talk or argue or brag from morning till night, He will still do what He prefers. So all we can do is use the mouth He has given us for or against Him ![grin](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/grin.png) that's all we all can do, nothing else. If this is how powerful He is, why then don't we respectfully talk about Him or talk to Him? Thank God for Jesus who enable us with the grace to approach God and communicate with Him as our father. 3 Likes 1 Share |

hopefulLandlord:
let's study your holy book and see if your post makes sense
And Jesus answered and said to them, “Truly I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, `Be taken up and cast into the sea,’ it will happen. “And all things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive.” (Matthew 21:21-22)
Again I say to you, that if two of you agree on earth about anything that they may ask, it shall be done for them by My Father who is in heaven. For where two or three have gathered together in My name, I am there in their midst. (Matthew 18:19-20)
Amen, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says will happen, it shall be done for him. Therefore I tell you, all that you ask for in prayer, believe that you will receive it and it shall be yours. (Mark 11:24-25)
And whatever you ask in my name, I will do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything of me in my name, I will do it. (John 14:13-14)
With all these passages claiming that if they have even the smallest amount of faith (Matthew 17:20 For truly, I say to you, if you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move; and nothing will be impossible to you.)then whatever you ask for in prayer will be granted,
there are obviously only a few options available for Christians to chose after taking a honest look at the lives of Christians and seeing their prayers fail most of the time:
1) the Bible is wrong, Jesus never said these things
2) the Bible is right, Jesus said these things but Jesus was wrong
3) the Bible is right, Jesus said these things but Jesus lied
4) no one who prayed for anything that actually required god's intervention, like amputees had any faith
5) the Bible is just a collection of myths & fables & Yahweh, Jesus, Holy Spirit, Satan doesn't exist This is serious... |

Deep within us, we all know Yahweh is a serial failure.
If nothing is impossible for him and you can ask for anything...Pls what have you ever asked from Yahweh that he has done for you? And you are 100% sure that he did it all alone without you working hard towards it or through coincidences which you attributed to him.
The gods have no business with us, it's all about us. In Him I live, move and have my being. He didn't create me to be idle. I didn't come to this world to do nothing only for Him to care for me like a toy. There's a reason He gave us a thinking faculty, you can decide to use it for Him or against Him. It's just like saying seun shouldn't receive any attribute garnered by nairaland because the mods are active and the members are also active. If no one is active or not, seun will still get any attributes connected to nairaland. If as a Christian, i make it big, you will tell me I did it myself but when I don't make it, you then blame my God. God said we should give him praise, through the bad times and good times, give Him the glory. And nothing is impossible for Him. All I have to do is to let Him be a lamp to my feet and a light to my path, that's all. Answers that please you are not the only thing you can call answers to whatever you've asked. Need I tell you no is also an answer? An answer which isn't yet visible to you because it hasn't manifested yet is also an answer but only pending to you. We all have different destinies in this world, the important thing is to fulfill our purpose in Christ, to fulfill the purpose for which we came into this world. So to me, God has been faithful. All I need to do is to keep on walking on the path He has ordained for me and I will get to my destination. The God I know have business with us, He is very interested in our matter. He cannot just create a wonderful and amazingly designed beings and then leave them all to themselves. He is knocking on the door of your heart, listen to Him and give Him a chance. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

No one is questioning your God OP. Yahweh (your own brand of Gods) is an imaginary idol of the desert dwelling Jews.
Yahweh is particularly scripted, with grand plagiarism of cosmology myths, of idols that existed in the oral folklore, of the culture that existed pre that of Jews.
No rational being, questions fictional character. Only the deluded worshiper of Yahweh questions it, when they are disillusioned.

Who really are we to question God? A God in charge of the air we breathe, in charge of our thinking faculty and anything else that make us feel relevant, beyond anyone else.
What right do you think you have to dictate for Him? What level of existence do you operate in that you feel you can tell Him what and not what to do? A mere man who sleeps and knows not what happen around him during those moment but only to wake up and question God as though God operates in his level.
You who can't stop yourself from sleeping, from eating, from thirst, who can hardly control your reflex actions, what makes you think you can question God?
You who can't recreate yourself or create someone like you, You this worm, this clay, how can you boldly stand up to your creator? What level of intelligence do you have that you think you have the guts to stand up to God?
You say who is God? He is your creator. A creator who was not created, I mean He has no creator. A creator who was, who has been before time, before the world began, before creation. Our creator has no beginning and ending of days. He is the only one who knew us before we were formed in our mother’s womb, the one who knows the number of hairs on your head, the one who knows your thoughts even before you carry them out, the one who gives you life and air to breathe.
And you know what? He is just one kind, I mean there is none like Him. He is the one who without Him nothing was made that has been made.
So how dare you question Him? I am not saying you shouldn't question Him, but what right do you have to question Him? I am a child of God and I can ask him questions. Stop painting God as if he is a tyrant. 5 20 In those days Hezekiah was sickand near death. And Isaiah the prophet, the son ofAmoz, went to himand said to him, “Thus says theLord: ‘Set your house in order, for you shall die, and not live.’”2 Then he turned his face toward the wall, and prayed to theLord, saying,3 “Remember now, OLord, I pray, howI have walked before You in truthand with a loyal heart, and have donewhat wasgood in Your sight.” And Hezekiah wept bitterly.4 And it happened, before Isaiah had gone out into the middlecourt, that the word of theLordcame to him, saying,5 “Return and tell Hezekiah the leader of My people, ‘Thus saystheLord, the God of David your father: “I have heard your prayer, I have seen your tears; surely I will heal you. On the third day you shall go up to the houseof theLord.6 And I will add to your days fifteen years.I will deliver you and this city from the hand of the king of Assyria; and I will defend this city for My own sake, and for the sake of My servant David.”’” |
