This engaging debate highlights the diverse and intellectual conversations that define our active social community.
Just something I was thinking of, whilst following the philosophical argument called the Epicurean paradox.
People say, God gives us free will because blah blah, he loves us, blah blah, he wants us to learn, etc.
But then why does Hell exist? If not believing in God sends me to hell, but believing in him does, then what's the point of human free will? If I put a gun at someone's head and force them to be good, do their goodness have any real value?
Does my faith have any real value if it's attained under threat of eternal damnation?
The value of doing good is that the goodness comes straight back to you. But if you put a gun on someone else's head and force them to be good then, that goodness did not come from them it came from you.
He gave us the free will to choose between him and the devil .... my love 💓.. he loves us all.. but the same time he doesn't want force dominance.. he wants u to choose him
That why I choose God.. ♥️ he really gives me peace 🥰
simple cuz he either does not Exist or is a super intellectual being who is not create but create who exist but also does not like its.. hard to explain u get it.he is something we cant discribe cuz we dont have the iq to
It's really simple, hell is separation from god, God has no sin so ppl who sin and don't wanna be and believe in god, god sends them to hell, why? Cuz he respects ur decision (which is the free will tht he gave u ) and doesn't wanna force u too live with him for eternity so he sends u too place where u dont hv to live with him for eternity which is hell
Sure 🥲, but who's nigga?
Wow .. i think we are getting ahead of ourselves here
I just meant we need to be careful with our words, that’s all.
Ur not wrong though
