i'm beginning to have some doubts about my doubts.
this subject is one of them.. many argue that it is unfair, unloving, and unjust for god to destroy 99.9% of all mankind at armageddon.
but didn't this happen before in the days of noah?
they had no concept whatsoever of the implications of disobeying
How can you say this? The bible says that eve was decieved, but she was at least able to mentioned that God told her she would die.
Adam on the otherhand wasn't decieved. He just choose to die with his wife.
i can understand many argue that scientifically it is impossible for the earth to remain forever (sun dies).
what is wrong with the argument that god could refuel the sun?.
What about the context of 2 Peter 3:10. Vs. 5-7 compares the future day of judgment to that of the flood. What was destroyed according to verse 7? Wasn't it the ungoldy men, not the physical earth?
okay here is my thread to discuss this.
i believe the bible is inspired by god and reliable.
many argue it's neither.
earth was created before the sun?
Where does it say this in the bible?

The one and only place this word occurs in the Bible.
But it's not the only place that the concept of God bringing the about the destruction in the future is mentioned.

Doesn't it strike you that it might just be the teeeeniest bit insane that an all powerful creator god gets his nose so far out of joint because one of his creations nibbles a bit of fruit??????????
Except for the fact God explicitly sad not to.

can ask why did Jesus perpatrate this "myth" when he knew better?
And that is a fair question and I speculate that it was because of WHO his message was being directed to.
The fact that Jesus didn't go into much details about the nature of God and His OWN very nature or go into the nature of the universe and creation probaly means that he knew it was above the undertanding of his intended audience.
Jesus not giving details is not the same as perpatrating a myth. Wouldn't implying something to be correct, such as perpatrating a myth, be dishonest? How could Jesus be dishonest?

Ezekiel 28:
That is the scripture I was thinking of when I said it implicitly says he rebelled.

So it's OK to rape a woman because you're bigger and stronger?
I never said that was okay. I do not see how this is a valid comparison. I'm sorry.
Supposedly we are rational beings created with free will yet, when we make any other choice than what god wants us to make, well, that free will is gonna cost you your existence.
Well what's wrong with that. If God say do not do this or you will die and we do it anyway. Isn't it just stupidity on our part? If I told you don't jump off a cliff because it would kill you, would you argue that you would use your freewill to jump? Obviously you could by it would be stupid.
So a parent should be able to kill their child for arbitrary disobedience? Really? I mean, after all, they created the child and fed and clothed and taught it.
I feel this is a much more valid point thatn the one about raping a women. I'll have to think more about this. Yet, I'd like to ask you. Was God wrong for killing Adam and Eve? They were created perfect. They were not sinful. Disobienence then was purposeful. If God made the rules, and they didn't play by them, who's fault is it then?
Actually, can you show me in the bible where is said satan rebelled and tried to take god's power?
I don't think the bible says he tried to take God's power (maybe I misunderstand what you mean by power), but implicitly it says he did rebell.

Hmm the Wt is the ark? Here I thought that Jesus was the door, and anyone seeking to enter thru any other means was a thief and a plunderer.
So the implication then is God won't destroy 99.9% of people at armeggedon, but 67% 1 . How is that any better for the argument that this would be unjust? Yet, I never thought about the claim to the org being the ark may be wrong. Yet how can it be wrong if they are God's org? As I mentioned in another post on this thread that would be a discussion for another thread.
