Hi, I'm not sure how to proceed but I hope to keep talking, I'm thinking we could go back and forth on scripture all day, I think you're pretty smart and I'm glad you've informed yourself to a point, I'm still learning to do this also with God stuff and everything really, though I have a different point then you at this time.

Forgive me if I'm stepping over boundaries now, I am thinking you not only don't believe Jesus is real but also if He is real then you don't want anything to do with Him. I think this is all a giant misunderstanding and I'd like to learn more with you about the nature of God, if you're willing.

We can even step outside scripture (special revelation) and go to the observable universe (general revelation) and what that means for observers like us.

We're sheep that need a shephard because humans are stupid, even moreso with the knowledge we 'so' desired. Please stop talking about things you don't 'know', MrEx.

You cannot be diluted out of existence, God holds dear His creation.

I would like you to confirm if these are the 3 scriptures you allude to, the 1st and 5th I think are over-arching themes and I don't feel pressed to pinpoint it in one verse, if you don't mind.

  1. As for genocide, I would encourage you to help me by pinpointing the scriptures you are using in your estimation. There are many. I would blanketly state any genocide ordered or ordained would be because of it's incontrollable evil, my first thought is the great flood, God regretted His creation and has promised that is over. (Edit: He won't wipe us all out ever again)

  2. Isaiah 60:12
    For the nation and the kingdom
    that will not serve you will perish;
    those nations will be annihilated

If this is the verse you mean then my explanation would be; God has shown you all His ways through these people throughout oral and written history for millennia and if, in the end, He is rejected then you will receive what you wish, to be far from Him.

  1. Psalm 22:29 All who prosper on earth will eat and bow down; all those who go down to the dust
    will kneel before Him—
    even the one who cannot preserve his life.

If this is the verse you refer to I would highly suggest reading the whole Psalm, it has been irreplaceable in my understanding the Lord and savior Jesus Christ and His sacrifice. To the quoted verse, if it is the correct one, I would say from dust we were made and dust we shall return, but the Lord has given us the opportunity for new life and eternal bodies, through His sacfrifice.

  1. Psalm 137:9 Happy is he who takes your little ones
    and dashes them against the rocks.

If this is the scripture you speak about I would give my great thanks to u/SwampRangers for getting to this sooner than I, his explanation is what I understand also. Evil is so nasty in it's torments that it can indeed be a blessing to be spared.

  1. I think the most High God has revealed Himself to us in a special way we could not attain in our own ways and I think He has chosen the children of Abraham, Issac and Jacob to guide the world to the nature of our Creator.

I will look into this and thank you for the challenge. I'll search by the key words you provided since you didn't link relevant scripture, the only words that matter are God's words on the matter.

If I may ask you, do you know who are all the Israelites in our present time? It's something I'm trying to figure out also.

I think you don't understand, God came to save everyone and He uses whatever means and people He sees fit, there is no darkness in Him, other gods were demolished for our good because devils seek death and God is the life giver.

I agree, I think there are great conspiracies concerning them all; Cain and Abel, Ishmael and Issac, Esau and Jacob, Dan an the other 11 tribes, Judah (Benjamin,Judah, Levi?) and the lost tribes (Asher, Gad, Isaachar, Naphthali, Rueben, Simeon, Zebulon and Manessah?), who I think will be banded together under Ephraim in the end. Jesus can save everyone, I don't believe God has made anyone He didn't hope to see again. Abandon your false gods.

(Also I think I'm missing something important with Noah's sons..)

Christ is the savior, the conspiracy is against His grace and salvation. Don't allow the devils to twist what God has given, our chains have been broken with the death and resurrection of Jesus. They've already lost.

c/Christianity was one of the first forum boards on this site, maybe you're just now catching on?
As for conspiracies against Christ and His followers, the tale is old as time (song as old as rhyme..)

I think Jesus comes back to earth and we should be ready. I appreciate your response to this post.

He's joking they'll kill him over endless energy, good on you for having concern though.

I think he has a great voice, nice inflections and he's pretty funny.
