“Sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor” (Mark 10:21) (Continued from part 8…) 9)            The biggest didactic problem of Scripture by pastors is the contextual pretermission. While the Mark issue pertains to Divine soteriological grace, that of Genesis and Luke demonstrates the fact that, ‘whatever He promises He is able to perform’ (Romans...Read More

Will God worship His creation; will He steal or give bribes? Will he hate a righteous person? Is it possible for Jehovah God to lie, commit adultery and or slander the innocent? This is what the Greek rendition of 'nothing shall be impossible' is: "There is not anything spoken by the mouth of God that shall be impossible for Him to perform." The truth is that, Gabriel uttered the self-same words of the LORD God, "Is any thing too hard for the LORD?" [Genesis 18:14] in His visitation to Abraham’s family. This was the LORD’s query when Sarah laughed, saying, "Shall I of a surety bear a child, which am old" [Genesis 18:13]? Now, 'any thing,' the Hebrew dâbâr (daw-baw'), is a masculine noun: BDB Definition: 'speech, word, speaking, thing, saying, utterance.' Strong's Definition: 'a word; by implication a matter (as spoken of) of thing.' This the Hebraic rendition of "Is any thing too hard for the Lord?" היפלא מיהוה דבר and the transliteration is hayippale meihovah dabar, with the English translation: “Shall a word (or thing) be wonderful from the Lord? i.e., Can any thing be too great a miracle for him to effect?'Read More

The usual outpouring psalmodic Spirit-infusion of Davidic scripting is of crystal clarity in, "For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with thee" [Psalm 5:4]. Evil is a component of Satanism. It has its dwelling home with Lucifer, in whom the activism of iniquity was first a discovery. I just do not know why people would not see the eternal destruction it portends if God should bring Himself to an inconsequentially tiny taste of evil. He will cease to be the Almighty: simply because He stands to be judged for wrongdoing. For the sake of His eternal goodness, the LORD, my God will never drink of evil. Hallelujah! The wisest individual poured it forth so beautifully in Proverbs 12:20, "Deceit is in the heart of them that imagine evil: but to the counsellors of peace is joy." Pregnant with arcanum is this Solomonic scriptorial ingenuity. Is God not too real to toy with a soiling deceitfulness? Jehovah is not the liar known of man, neither will He ever seek for repentance, having committed a sin. Read More

I cannot understand how God could author moral evil and not be guilty as well. What kind of Being will God be, if for instance He should plan and orchestrate the sinful fall of Adam and his wife and made the soteriological arrangements to go alongside it? He most certainly will be the giddiest of all in existence. Why would He toy with innocent lives? I can hear a statement like, "Well, He is God Almighty." Then the concluding rhetoric, "Who can challenge Him if He should decide to do just that (sin)?" Is God like a man? They simply do not know the kind of Person, Jehovah, the God of the Bible is. He is Love. In absolute readiness to shower all pleasantness to all of His creations is His divine volition. He is the true Light. Full of knowledge and grace. Jehovah is full of goodness and to an overflowing ineffableness. The LORD God is absolutely faultless –the ultimate perfection of goodness from eternity to eternal existence. Amen.Read More

One of the meanings of 'Ĕlôhı̂ym is 'magistrate'. God's guilt will rob Him of all moral justifications to try anybody. His insistence on judging wrongdoers will only give Him the evil persona of a sadistic tyrant. A guilty judge has no rectitude of any moral standing to try any offender. He must vacate the bench. God will forever be the good KING. Why? The good Book says in Psalm 110:1, "A Psalm of David. The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool." All enemies of righteousness must come to judgment. The sinless Jehovah cannot be one of the condemnable lots. Why His righteous holiness is eternally a certainty is found in Psalm 45:6, which says, "Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: the sceptre of thy kingdom is a right sceptre."Read More

The LORD God "Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth"[1Corinthians 13:6]. The Devil will have every right to his evil perpetration if God should commit just one tiny evil. Lucifer's defence will be, "The One of the throne is not less guilty!" Jesus went about doing only good deeds. The Devil could not find one evil thing in Jesus (John 14:30). God is, will never be guilty of any wrongful act. Holiness is of the LORD God. God, I thank You so much for being too good and too smart to commit any blundersome act. Hallelujah!Read More

Islam believes that the deterministic proclivity of God's creationism had made Him to pen down what will eventuate in the life of every individual –destiny, they call it. The first question engendered by this belief is, were you there when the Creator was doing that (documentational preparation of your future earthly life)? Was anybody aware of it when an unpalatable omen was scribbled against his –about to live– life? Why would God decide that a particular man, before his parturition, must die peacefully; but for this woman before she was born, was tagged with a fatal death? Childlessness for some; others must live impecunious lives and die so. Whimsically giddy. God is not sadistic: for that is what necessitarianism (on the contrary) teaches concerning Divine operations. Read More

Why would God give a restrictive law of "But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die" [Genesis 2:17], if not to save them from the consequences of the negativity of erratic ill. Another prevalent truth stems from the facticity that Eden is God's home; and rules must guard every abode, not forgetting that the entire earth is the LORD's. God made us free moral agents as attested to in Genesis 2:16 "And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:" The same God expects us to follow His revealed will. Your refusal to honour His word will place you before His celestial assizes. God's irreproachability, having told man what to do, is evident.Read More
