Is there a Supreme Being who hates or loves their creation?

What do you hope?
 
Re: Does God love you?

Zero evidence for any gods, so no.
 
Re: Does God love you?

A really sweet old lady told me that Jesus loves me in an IHOP yesterday.

I mean she's wrong, but it was sweet.
 
Re: Does God love you?

The arrogance of man IMO is thinking a supreme being that has the power to create all the universe and everything in it.....is somehow concerned with what man does or thinks.

My answer is "other". There might be a supreme being(s), but I would wager if there is, they give as much a care about man as man gives about microbes as they walk or drive to work.

[h=1]John 3:16King James Version (KJV)[/h]16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Obviously not everyone believes this but it is what I believe.

Not likely

Probably not the thread to ask this, but ask it I shall. What took God so long? I mean, I just can;t wrap my head around the idea that he just woke up one day--after, you know, 3-plus billion years-- and said to himself, "You know that perfect world I created and love so much, they need some saving.'
 
Re: Does God love you?

Well, He says he does... and given how many times I'd have been dead or ruined but for a last-ditch miracle, I'm inclined to believe Him.

Goshin, I happen to know you've seen His light........... I expected more faith from you.

I trust you're dragging her ass to court for trying to force her religious beliefs on you.

I'm curious as to how he knew she was wrong?

Nothing he said demonstrated any lack of faith, my friend. In a conversation with those who are not similarly so convinced as we are, it's often helpful to provide some background for why we have faith in God as well as belief in the word of God. I want Goshin to correct me if I'm wrong but what I took from his post is that, in Goshin's experience, his faith has proven to be well placed because he has seen God work in his life. God needs no justification to be sure, but people often want to know WHY we believe or may even assume us to be mindless followers if all we say is that we have faith but don't follow up with why we do.

You want me to explain 'hope'? If you don't have it or others have none than I can't give it to you, though few perish without it. I think Goshin has seen hope, so don't address it too me. As for others, I know what their minds are at the end, do you?
 
Re: Does God love you?

LOL. If she was serious then she picked up his check.

I can think of a number of reasons unrelated to whether she was serious why she may not have done that but I understand your point, Risky. The absolute best witness you can be is not just to say what you believe but to live what you believe.

No I don't.

I try to learn as little as possible so as to keep the bar low as possible. :mrgreen:
 
Re: Does God love you?

Highly unlikely. If there is one, it'd be nice to have some evidence of them.

I don't understand the purpose of this question. Deities either exist or they don't. If you wanna know what I hope, it is that mankind can follow the evidence precisely where it leads regarding this.

I apologize X, I should've known better than to question you on this subject. You know what few of us hope to understand.

My fault for the miscommunication, brother. I laughed at your post re "dragging her ass into court." There was no point in my response other than to be funny. I feckin failed.

You are this deity in physical form. The next world is merely a continuum of a more prosperous existence, with you being aware that God is you.

No apology necessary, my friend. I enjoy discussing this with you. You get me thinking.

You are so close to the truth that 'WE' are God, not any single person. Your humility has exposed you as part of 'US'.
