BTW Christianity is not just about texts. Try and brain that if you understand.

Plagiarism spotted. Shame on lowyat.

Anyway, I understand why people workship God. Just for one main purpose = to be blessed. Honestly, its shame too to live in imagination.

Our living personal testimony/miracles that correspond to the truth of the gospel defy all these allegations from atheist.

We have millions of believers if not billions who can attest to this. There goes the word, imagination.
BTW, while it's true certain quarters who lacks knowledge may see God as such but To be blessed is really nothing wrong in of itself.

It's just one aspect, it's not the conclusive goal.

When you know God and have a relationship with Him, You will worship Him inevitably because of the revelation of His goodness and love for you.

Fear of sin because people say there is a hell and after life.

People thank GOD;
Kena Toto because God blessed.
Healed from sick because of God blessed.
Winning in Football match because of God blessed.
Able to reach office in time because of God blessed.
Able to avoid car crashed because of God blessed.

People say GOD plan;
Those thousand and thousand people died of AIDS and hunger everyday because God love them and its part of His plan. Or people say its punishment from the God for HUMAN ACT.


GOD love you because you said it. People said it. God didn't say it. You people think behalf of God?

The origin of evil is not the Creator but the creature's freely choosing sin and selfishness

Who's to say we are good people? The question should be not "Why do bad things happen to good people?" but "Why do good things happen to bad people?" If the fairy godmother tells Cinderella that she can wear her magic gown until midnight, the question should be not "Why not after midnight?" but "Why did I get to wear it at all?" The question is not why the glass of water is half empty but why it is half full, for all goodness is gift. The best people are the ones who are most reluctant to call themselves good people. Sinners think they are saints, but saints know they are sinners. The best man who ever lived once said, "No one is good but God alone."

Who's to say suffering is all bad?   "The man who has not suffered, what can he possibly know, anyway?" Suffering can work for the greater good of wisdom. It is not true that all things are good, but it is true that "all things work together for good to those who love God."

All our sufferings are transformable into Jesus' work, our passion into his action. That is why he instituted prayer, says Pascal: to bestow on creatures the dignity of causality.

We are really his body; the Church is Christ as my body is me. That is why Paul says his sufferings are making up in his own body what Christ has yet to endure in his body (Col 1:24).

You see, the Christian views suffering, as he views everything, in a totally different way, a totally different context, than the unbeliever. He sees it and everything else as a between, as existing between God and himself, as a gift from God, an invitation from God, a challenge from God, something between God and himself. Everything is relativized. I do not relate to an object and keep God in the background somewhere; God is the object that I relate to. Everything is between us and God. Nature is no longer just nature, but creation, God's creation. Having children is procreation. My very I is his image, not my own but on loan.

What then is suffering to the Christian? It is Christ's invitation to us to follow him. Christ goes to the cross, and we are invited to follow to the same cross. Not because it is the cross, but because it is his. Suffering is blessed not because it is suffering but because it is his. Suffering is not the context that explains the cross; the cross is the context that explains suffering. The cross gives this new meaning to suffering; it is now not only between God and me but also between Father and Son. The first between is taken up into the Trinitarian exchanges of the second. Christ allows us to participate in his cross because that is his means of allowing us to participate in the exchanges of the Trinity, to share in the very inner life of God.

Finally, no sane person wants hell to exist. No sane person wants evil to exist. But hell is just evil eternalized. If there is evil and if there is eternity, there can be hell. If it is intellectually dishonest to disbelieve in evil just because it is shocking and uncomfortable, it is the same with hell. Reality has hard corners, surprises, and terrible dangers in it. We desperately need a true road map, not nice feelings, if we are to get home. It is true, as people often say, that "hell just feels unreal, impossible." Yes. So does Calvary.
