I find God is very limited eh. he had to send emissaries to find out if the outcry was true? he had tos end people two of them to destroy the vcity on his behalf. Phew, he eh sound so mighty at all ent?
free will be damed..do as I say or I destroy you.
hehehehehehe
What a mighty God allyuh serving.
Ent? He should just shoot first. No need for questions since He knows everything.
But then if that was the case we wouldn't be having this conversation, exercising our free will, getting kicks on how stupid He is. Since our evolved minds is above the rationale of a creator it is safe then to assume that He doesn't exist. There was another city carded for the bullet. It was called Nineveh, this time the emissary was Jonah. Jonah wanted them punished but this was God's heart to the people.
People's Response after hearing the word Repent:
Jonah 3
6. When Jonah’s warning reached the king of Nineveh, he rose from his throne, took off his royal robes, covered himself with sackcloth and sat down in the dust. 7 This is the proclamation he issued in Nineveh:
“By the decree of the king and his nobles:
Do not let people or animals, herds or flocks, taste anything; do not let them eat or drink. 8 But let people and animals be covered with sackcloth. Let everyone call urgently on God. Let them give up their evil ways and their violence. 9 Who knows? God may yet relent and with compassion turn from his fierce anger so that we will not perish.”
10
When God saw what they did and how they turned from their evil ways, he relented and did not bring on them the destruction he had threatened. Jonah's response:
He was pissed because he felt and wanted God to destroy to city.
Jonah 4
9 But God said to Jonah, “Is it right for you to be angry about the plant?”
“It is,” he said. “And I’m so angry I wish I were dead.”
10 But the Lord said, “You have been concerned about this plant, though you did not tend it or make it grow. It sprang up overnight and died overnight. 11 And should I not have concern for the great city of Nineveh, in which there are more than a hundred and twenty thousand people who cannot tell their right hand from their left—and also many animals?”
God always sends emissaries to reach out to man. Old testament, New Testament, He sent His son. He sent my own mother, relatives friends, old ladies in churches, people on the street. That's His Grace and love for us. You have free will just be prepared to reap what you sow.
