ArchivedGod as a Heavenly FatherPeace Lady Fatima, Like I stated, a good father punished his children. God punishes His loved ones to keep them on the right track, any good father is like this. A poor and unloving father lets his children run around like monkeys by not punishing them. God forgive all who ask sincerely, and punishes all who committ iniquity and don't seek forgiveness. We are often punished because of our sins directly. If you steal, you'll likely get caught and pay the consequences. People go to hell not because God doesn't love them, but because they don't love God and make a choice not to submitt to Him and accept His will. Essentially, they send themselves to hell. God won't send you to hell because he doesn't love you, but because you rejected Him, so He will reject you in the end times because there is NO SUCH THING as a free ride. Even salvation through Christ isn't free, you have to believe it and accept it and live a Godly life for it. Your passages from the Bible depict God as very upset after seeing His Chosen People fall into complete debauchery for centuries, and so He allows Babylon to invade and kill and pillage and deport the Jews to Babylon. He still loved His people, but He ended their debauchery by severely punishing them. God loves the good and the bad, but the bad don't want to be with God, they won't accept the truth, they won't become Christian. You may think your following God, but you are not! You mock God by saying "He can't do that, that's impossible" and "That's a crazy notion" You spell out your own fate by doubting and bot accepting. God still loves you, even if you rebel against Him. You know the Parable of the Prodigal Son? God is like this father! Come to Him with open arms, and He won't hold a grudge against you. The Quran doesn't understand, it's a product of humanity. |
