So He's not all-good?

Does God have to abide by logic and reason, or does His divine nature give Him the right to disregard logic and reason as far as His behavior goes? If you watch this video, you might (will?) understand why God allowing suffering to happen is irrational regardless of whether the goal He wants...

The Abrahamic God is described as having three major attributes: omnipotence, omniscience and omnibenevolence. The problem of evil / the existence of suffering in the world makes the coexistence of these three attributes logically impossible. Which of the three do you think is more likely to not...

The video was removed for some reason and I can't edit the original post, so here is another video: Does that happen even to sinners?

Have you ever been to an Eastern or Western Orthodox Church? What about a Coptic one? Tell us a bit about your experience there. If you haven't, would you like to visit one? Do you have any plans to do so in the near future? Why or why not?

If you had to pick your favorite president in the history of the USA that was in office before you were born, who would it be? And why?

There's a new social media app launched by Meta (the company behind Facebook). It's called Threads and it tries to rival Elon Musk's X. It's a microblogging platform. After having been restricted in the EU for a while, it was finally launched in my country last week and I joined it. I came...

Is your YouTube feed full of Christian content? How often do you watch Christian YouTubers? I mean YouTubers who make videos about Christianity (whether it's apologetics, preaching, vlogs etc.), not YouTubers who are Christians but make unrelated content.

I'm pretty sure that the majority of humans agree that forcing people to do something against their will and torturing them if they refuse to comply is unjust. If they don't agree in theory, they will once they are subjected to such a system. The thing is that making some choices every single...

And I think that's a problem because it is unjust, so God can't call Himself just if He doesn't solve this issue. Only if you believe in "sola fide" (faith alone), which the majority of Christians (Catholics and Orthodox) do not. Sure, you can find verses in the Bible that seem to indicate that...

Why? What's the logic behind that? If you have no sin, you see the world as it truly is, namely flawed, corrupted, you see that no one acts badly from their own desires, but from corrupted desires, experiences and influences. We, the sinful, catch glimpses of these issues sometimes and are able...

Which, if you think about it, makes zero sense, as a pure heart would not want to cause harm to anyone at all. If God had a pure heart, hell would not have been created. All beings who wanted to cause harm to other beings would just cease to exist.

Merry Christmas! 🎂 🥳

In post 15, you wrote this: "The life and death it presents is not eternal life through faith in God. It is following the Law during their day to day life. See (18:5-13)." I quoted Ezekiel 18:5-13 and told you that I can't find such a claim in those verses. Then, in post 21, you say, "Of course...

“5 Suppose there is a righteous man who does what is just and right. 6 He does not eat at the mountain shrines or look to the idols of Israel. He does not defile his neighbor’s wife or have sexual relations with a woman during her period. 7 He does not oppress anyone, but returns...

Do you have any verses to back this up? Where in the Old Testament does God speak of an eternal punishment that is to come for those who don't believe that the Messiah will be a human sacrifice for their sins? Why would God use the word "salvation" without explaining to His chosen people that...

Yes, it is His justice, the justice that He Himself eloquently explained through the prophets. The soul who sins is the one who will die. The son will not share the guilt of the father, nor will the father share the guilt of the son. The righteousness of the righteous man will be credited to...

Holy means "set apart", "like no other". I don't see the logical connection between "being set apart" and "not being good having consequences". Well, this is where we disagree on. I don't think even ultimate good should have the right to enforce existence upon those who don't want to exist...

Who is "Man"? I thought Adam sinned. Why is humanity treated as a monolith, as an entity formed of numerous individuals? Why is the system designed in such a way so that the actions of one creature impact other creatures against their will? Doesn't that seem like a flawed system to you? Be...
