First, we cannot compare ourselves to God, He is divine, we are mortal.
So if He as a divine already says no then why cant we? Why does he expect us to help someone in need every time we can when He himself answers no to those in need? He is setting higher standards on us than he has taken on himself.
hat good reason could we possibly have for saying no?
Because we can. And that's what god does. He says no just because He can. It's like being dictator. He knows that angels dont have power to throw Him into Hell, so he does ignore all the 10 commandments as much as He wishes. He enjoys our pain because He knows that now one can throw Him in Hell anyway so why bother. It's like on earth, dictators such as Putin or Kim ignore the laws because they know that no one can do anything. They can kill people if they one and no one makes them responsible. The same is true for God. He knows that no one can do anything, so He abuses power as much as He can. And now ur enough brainwashed to support him. Why cant u just admit that God is wronged me and stop telling lies about Him?
There is no good reason for not helping our fellow man when we have the ability to help them.
One good reason is that we as God's people should reflect God truthfully and if God is asshole we have to be asshole as well because we as a christians should be the image/reflection of God here on earth and this is how we can show to others who God really is.
The only reason you didn't endure is because of your lack of faith.
But why didnt he Give me the faith? You say I should have read the bible but then why didnt God give me the interest? You dont expect me to read that boring made up story full of false promises? If God wants me to read it He should give me interest in that.
In order for God to help us, we must have faith in Him.
And since God isnt doing anything to make that faith grow in me there can be any improvement to my situation either which means that it would forever stay like that. And as I mentioned before I dont really believe in the bible anymore and it's very hard to find interest in something you dont believe to be true, and it's ery hard to read something that ur not interested in.
My friend, the Bible says "pray without ceasing". The Bible says that we must get desperate with the Lord.
I have done this.
2) Trust in God and with His help continue on to become better and stronger then before. It really is that simple.
I am not intentionally blocking Him. If my disbelief/disappoitment is too much for Him, then He simply isnt all powerful. You cant explain it with free will, because to answer my prayers He wouldnt have to go against my free will. I am totally letting Him to help me. I am even giving Him time before I do next step in going closer to satanic spells and further from God. So u see I give Him all the opportunities but just as He did not use previous ones He wont use this one so eventually I would still end up fixing my problems with help of satan and God only watches me with out giving s**t about it.
You failed to endure because you failed to believe.
But I failed to believe because God havent given reason to. The more I pray the more unaswered prayers I see, and the less I believe. It's not my fault that God isnt doing anything. It's not my fault that God God didnt do anything when I still was christian.
True faith can say, without a shadow of a doubt, "Though He slay me, yet will I trust in Him."
But you wont be able to say this and mean it unless you have experienced God yourself. You know there is a difference between ur own real experience and hearing that someone else had experience.
So yes, we are to blame for when we fail to endure. We fail to endure when we stop trusting in God. We fail to endure when we become "weary in well-doing". So yes, once again we are the ones to blame for failing to endure, not God.
I have already explained how it's result of God not caring about me.
We have already discussed this. How did God reject you? By not saying yes to your prayers? That isn't rejection. I already said this, God has His reasons for answering the way He has answered us. When He says "no" to our requests, we must have faith and trust that He has our best interests at heart. If however you do not trust that He cares for you, then you are essentially admitting that you have no faith in Him. Once again, the fault is our if we fail to believe, not God's.
Ok, let's call it with other word. He has ignored me instead of He has rejected me. You can blame me. But just because you blame me doesnt change the fact that God is ignoring me. You think that blaming me somehow changes the fact that God has been ignoring me? No. Just it's my fault doent make Him un-ignore me.
When He says "no" to our requests, we must have faith and trust that He has our best interests at heart.
So His best interest is for us to suffer forever and ever. so loving of Him.
hen you are essentially admitting that you have no faith in Him.
In case you want to be sure, I can directly admit it as well:
Before the almighty and ineffable God Satan/Lucifer and in the presence of all Demons of Hell, who are the True and the Original gods, I, <name removed> renounce any and all past allegiances. I renounce the false Christian god Jehova, I renounce his vile and worthless son Jesus Christ, I renounce his foul, odious, and rotten holy spirit.
I proclaim Satan Lucifer as my one and only God. I promise to recognize and honor him in all things, without reservation, desiring in return, his manifold assistance in the successful completion of my endeavors.

My opinion is yes, you are still saved.
What if I told you I have prayed this prayed above over and over again? What about parable of sowing the seeds.
18 “Hear then the parable of the sower: 19 When anyone hears the word of the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what has been sown in his heart. This is what was sown along the path. 20 As for what was sown on rocky ground, this is the one who hears the word and immediately receives it with joy, 21 yet he has no root in himself, but endures for a while, and when tribulation or persecution arises on account of the word, immediately he falls away.[
b] 22 As for what was sown among thorns, this is the one who hears the word, but the cares of the world and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and it proves unfruitful. 23 As for what was sown on good soil, this is the one who hears the word and understands it. He indeed bears fruit and yields, in one case a hundredfold, in another sixty, and in another thirty.”
It would complain about turning away if it was once saved always saved. Or why does bible say about Judas who betrayed Jesus:
The Son of Man goes as it is written of him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed!
It would have been better for that man if he had not been born. If he did went to heaven, Jesus would not have said this.
Or why does bible say that if u do what I did - turn away from God u have even worse punishment in hell than u would have if u never knew lord?
2 Peter 2:20-22 For if, after they have escaped the defilements of the world through the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overcome, the last state has become worse for them than the first. For it would have been better for them never to have known the way of righteousness than after knowing it to turn back from the holy commandment delivered to them. What the true proverb says has happened to them: “The dog returns to its own vomit, and the sow, after washing herself, returns to wallow in the mire.”
Or here is written about me and that my future is hell:
Hebrews 6:4-8 For it is impossible, in the case of those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly
gift, and have shared in the Holy Spirit, and have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the age to come, and then have fallen away, to restore them again to repentance, since they are crucifying once again the Son of God to their own harm and holding him up to contempt. For land that has drunk the rain that often falls on it, and produces a crop useful to those for whose sake it is cultivated, receives a blessing from God. But if it bears thorns and thistles, it is worthless and near to being cursed, and its end is to be burned.
Or here it also says that if I dont abide in christ I go to hell:
John 15:6 If anyone does not abide in me he is thrown away like a branch and withers; and the branches are gathered, thrown into the fire, and burned
Or if I dont obey I go to hell:
John 3:26 Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him
Or as you like to tak about free will: I should have free will do decide what I do, right? How can u say that I have free will if there is no option for me to choose hell over heaven? I mean once saved always saved means that one I am saved I am unable to go to hell if I wanted to which would mean that God would not respect my free will. You see not being able t go back to hell contradicts with ur once saved always saved.
Or Heb 10:26-27
26 For if we go on sinning deliberately after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, 27 but a fearful expectation of judgment, and a fury of fire that will consume the adversaries.
Or why did Paul give such a hard warning to christians? The letter he wrote, he wrote to christians not to non-believers. So the warning was meant to warn christians:
But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. 19 Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, 20 idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions, 21 envy,[
d] drunkenness, orgies, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do[
e] such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
And an other warning from falling away:
10 And then many will fall away and betray one another and hate one another. 11 And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. 12 And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold. 13 But the one who endures to the end will be saved.
No, it is not the fault of the child in Africa. But it is the fault of humanity, not God. They have the ability to help, but they have chosen not to. That is free will. The same goes for wars. God hates war, but people have free will, and what they choose to do with their free will is their responsibility, not God's. You blame the actions of man on God, but God gave them free will. You say it is not their job to fund Africa. But I repeat, it is their fault. They have the ability to help, they could share what they don't need, but out of greed they do not. That makes it their choice not to share and as such their choice to watch while their fellow man goes without.
But why would I spend my money on kids in africa? There is always infinite amount of poor. I dont have obligation to work for some one else. Many problems that that africans have are because they are too lazy to do anything. Why should we as europeans work hard if blacks themselves are too lazy to help themselves. We also have our rights for rest and you cant expect us to work 16 hours a day instead of 8 hour a day just because there are kids in africa. There is absolutely no oblication (not even moral one) for us feed the kids in aftica. I can see that you are brainwashed and I will not discuss this topic any more.
Yes, He has answered his prayer. In answer to His prayer God sent you, but you choose not to help the man in need. Yes, God could do it another way, but God often works through us.
But all powerful god should know in advance that I wouldnt help, and choose some one else. In my opinion innocent person should not suffer because of my disobedience. And if my disobedience causes innocent person who has always done the will of God to be with out prayer answer then God is not powerful enough to help him, that's all. You see it's not his fault that I am unwilling to obey God. So it's God's job to make sure that his prayer gets answered, not mine. After all God can send angels in form of humans and they could help person in need. And if God does not do that it simply shows that God does not care enough. He may care about his problem, but only as much as send me there and if I refuse He doesnt care enough to use angels instead.
God will lay their unanswered prayers at our feet.
But I am not God that I should answer prayers or be responsible for unanswered prayers. God could have chosen someone else at first point. Secondly, nowhere in my life have I signed contract where I agree to help people in need. And if I have not signed such cotract He cant demand of it. I have not said that "yes, I am willing to be used as a prayer answer".
