Subject: Bible, The Word Of God
Praised be Jesus Christ, now and forever, Amen. “The ‘God Loves Everyone’ lie.” OK so I have not read the whole bible, so i will just take your word for it, that it is not in the bible.
I do know this, and that is that God (Jesus) does love the sinner. John 8:1-11, specifically verse 11 “…Neither do I condemn you; go, and do not sin again.” is one of the clues to how I know God (Jesus)loves the sinner. By him saying “sin no more” he means that he hates sin. If Jesus loves the sinner that means He loves me and all sinners, but he hates all are sins. If he loves all sinners that means he loves everyone.
One more Bible verse. John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that he gave his only-begotten Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.”
Please let me know what you think about this. Thanks
Anthony,
Your reasoning is sorely flawed. This is not a game of Blue’s Clues. The Lord says to rightly divide the word of truth (2 Timothy 2:15). There is NO inconsistencies with God.
In John 8, the Lord knew her heart and that she was penitent and ashamed. He told her to stop sinning. We tell you to stop sinning. The Lord loves the broken and contrite sinner, ONLY! Never ever has He loved or will love the unrepentant sinner. There is absolutely NO forgiveness without repentance. Repentance involves action – you STOP whatever sin you are engaged in. Repentance is a gift from God and man is completely incapable of doing that on his own.
The proud sinners are referred by the Lord as the wicked, goats, vipers, reprobates, condemned, etc. that are cast into the lake of fire and the Lord says He never knew them! Do you really think God loves all people and grants some eternal life and others He casts into hell? What kind of love is that? You know that doesn’t make any sense. Do you think just the sin goes to hell? Of course, not. People go to hell and God hates them. Period!
‘Go and sin no more’ means STOP RIGHT NOW your sinful manner of life – adultery (including divorce and remarriage), fornication, homosexuality, idolatry, greed, lying on God, etc. NOT – ‘I’m sorry God’ and then go whore around and demand God loves you.
Lastly, John 3:16. “Whosoever believeth on Him” are those who strive against sin and OBEY! They ONLY get eternal life, Anthony. Read further for once –
“He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.” John 3:18-20
The rest are condemned already. They do NOT believe God and love their sin. There is NO forgiveness or salvation given unto them.
NOW, it is time to have a real clue:. God hates people! (Romans 9:13) God hates liars! (Revelation 22:15)
Carefully read the words and OBEY! You will be accountable for this sloppy work. God doesn’t owe you anything. Obey TODAY!
