i asked you - could god have eradicated evil from the earth without killing everybody?

you replied - apparently not


if god can do anything, then he should be able to think of a way of solving the problem of humanities evil without killing millions of people.

so is his power limited or not?

why cant he lie, what stops him?

God is absolute perfection. He cannot sin and lying is a sin.

Jehovah God cannot lie (Nu 23:19; Heb 6:13-18), and he hates “a false tongue.” (Pr 6:16-19)


He also knows exactly what to do in any situation to correct anything. If you don't agree with him and his decisions you should call him out and speak your mind to him..............

why cant he sin? who decided that perfection cannot include sin? isnt sin just a way of describing some moral rules that god created?

could god have clicked his fingers and made evil disappear?

Didn't you dodge it previous times too, saying something or other like "This has been discussed here many times; you need to notice that stuff"?

If Jehovah talks a life, it is justified. He never ends a life to just to end it and make others suffer from it.
But all life belongs to him as he is the giver of life. If anyone abuses it especially that of another, he has every right to do as he sees fit.

Sounds good to me. Lol. They do need a search option to use here so anyone can go back and find a previously discussed subject. I may invent that for us... 🙂

Let's get this straight -

Lying is a sin therefore God cannot lie.

Killing is a sin but God can kill someone if it is 'justified'?

Ok lets try this... Is a judge or jury guilty of sin when they sentance someone to death for killing other humans like at the movie theater in Colorado for instance? Is that not justice?
Think on it, good night.

Yep. We could search for the words "waist" or 'explination" as in "It's a waist of my time if you dont understind my explination then there is nothing I can do, gotta go now bye".
