God is good and evil

C.God has, many believe, described Himself in Scripture, where He says that He is a shepherd, a counselor, a father. A friend, a comforter, a guide, a creator, love, wisdom. All powerful? Present everywhere? All knowing? He never presents Himself that way, beyond saying that nothing is impossible with Him, or with you and I if we believe. That He can be reached from anywhere.The last guy that talked about God, instead of with God, was Job. You want those kinds of problems? Keep it up. Ask Him what you want to know about Him, with a listening ear. Ask until you hear. Get it from the horse's mouth, because if you don't, I can guarentee what you think up on your own will be from the horse's other end.Stephen

Catalyst,Thanks for the encouragement. It was a good try. After the marriage of the Lamb, God does remind us that, indeed, He is omnipotent. If you have ever been married, you want to know such things. Until marriage, however, it is better to remember that He is a father, counselor, shepherd, etc.But, I should have known better than to use the word "never." Thanks for the correction.Stephen

Ringokid,Neat post. Even though I think you overstated some points. To wit: Drop "entirely" and you are making an important point. But subjectivity is dependent in part on knowledge or ignorance, as in "ignoring pertinent information." Thus, the evil of closing one's eyes to knowledge that will make one subjectively responsible for an act, is not covered. More than you suggest, I'm afraid. That presume to know the mind of God, or even any God that might be.Beyond these small points, right on, bro.Stephen
