You can't frighten me with threats of eternal damnation from a non existent deity, like i've said before, why would God, an all powerful super natural
being who created the universe, feel the need to mend his bruised ego by punishing people who don't believe in him? Why would a being that powerful
have self esteem issues? Why would a being that powerful and all knowing partake in petty vengeance?
First of all, I am not threating you, nor God is, it's a fair warning. If God really wanted to harm you, you'll just be dead just right now without
even being able to foresee it or to understand what happens to you (God is spoilt for choice, The only problem is choosing)
The fact to unbelieve in God is not the real problem, being an unbeliever is just the name of a sickness of the heart/soul. That's the consequencies
of this sickness which are more concrete and which represent the true problem.
Unbelieving in God is an indicator for many many other unjustice within a person. It's like someone who is labeled "crazy/insane", the label does not
speak to us but the concrete consequencies of being insane are the real a problem (violence, danger, etc...).
Unbelieving in God means:
* Denying your Creator
* Denying that your body and soul does not belong to you, but to your Creator
* Denying that the Universe in which you live has not been created by God
* Denying all the gifts of God to you
* Denying God's holly books and Prophets
* Denying God's Truth which is contained in these books
* Harming yourself AND HARMING THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU because you've refused to accept the karmic/soul laws of life contained in these books (these
rules are universal)
* Simply destroying lifes (yours, and the one of the other people around you)....
* In short you adopt your own code which is full of flaws
etc
There are an infinite number of other bad consequencies. The consequencies are huge:
As the Creator and Unique God, God/Allah perfectly knows the Universe, the rules of life, of soul, of nature... he knows the FULL consequencies of
each action ... whereas, we, human beings, just know a very limited part of these consequencies, have many misconceptions, many weaknesses.... that's
why we shall obey God and not follow our own ignorance/madness, God is the Creator and he simply knows better than us. So there is nothing mystic or
dogmatic in obeying God, it's simply recognizing the Truth of his existence, of his laws, of his goodness....
Compared to God, we, humans, are even less than babies, infinitely less.
God does not want us to be his slaves, he just wants us to live in perfect harmony with our Creator, with our own persons and with the rest of the
Creation. If God wanted such a thing, he would have created a race of slaves who are fully obedient to him by design, and we all know that's not our
case, we all know that we fully enjoy our freewill.
God is permanently protecting us against a huge number of dangers that we see and that we cannot see, God is permanently forgiving us for our bad
deeds, for our evil actions and is infinitely patient with us.
God does not punish the people, he's does not seek any vengence, God/Allah just lets the consequencies of our actions fully fall on us if we choose to
cross the red line, if WE sign for that by OUR OWN freewill.
As God is protecting us against a huge number of dangers which are invisible (and visble) to our eyes (but which are perceptible by other means), if
we sign for disobeying God and exceeding the limits, God has no choice than letting us living by our own and let us be our own protectors and guides.
In the midst of this huge number of dangers, it's not long before we commit a lethal mistake. We become instantly accountable for the least of our
actions, and the universe and life are not a game, like we, human beings, may imagine.
It's like letting a crazy person cross the highway.
It's like a baby who is not watched by his parents and who plays with a set of sharp knifes.
....
It's even worse than that.
That's exactly how mad are the people who want to be their own guides and protectors.
So God is not vengeful, he's full of love and mercy towards us, but WE, are the unfair ones, the unfair people are those who choose to disobey and to
deny the gifts of God, who prefer to defend themselves against dangers which far exceed them, THEY are the crazy and unfair ones. That's the unfair
people who want to deal with things which are beyond their knowledge.
I know that many of you don't even feel that they are evil, but that's because of your amnesia, the true "criminals" always forget their bad deeds,
always accuse the others. When you're too far, you forget the origin of your perdition and you even forget that you were lost, that's called the huge
perdition.
If God really wanted to retribute us excatly as we deserve, we would be all dead just right now, but God is full of mercy and let us enough time to
permit us to make a mature choice, meanwhile, he fully protects us against the consequencies of our actions by pure mercy. He protects us against our
own madness and unjustice for several decades, and once, we do our choice by our own freewill, a mature choice, God respects our choice and gives us
exactly what we want. Therefore, the consequencies which go with our choices become very quicly visible, for those who have chosen the disobediance,
what I call the punishment of God is simply the pure consequencies of their OWN actions.
If God was really an evil God, he would simply destroy us once for all, the good and the bad people, and replace us by another race which is created
obedient by design, a slave race, but God is not like that and God has honored us by giving us a true freewill, that's a huge responsability and one
have to be very careful with his choices. This terrestrial life is a short test in order to know who deserve to live the infinity with God and enjoy
the whole universe and who will private himself from that by HIS OWN FREEWILL.
Koran
S35:V15 O ye men! it is ye that have need of Allah: but Allah is the One Free of all wants, Worthy of all praise.
S35:V16 If He so pleased, He could blot you out and bring in a New Creation:
S35:V45 If Allah were to punish men according to what they deserve, He would not leave on the back of the (earth) a single living creature: but He
gives them respite for a stated Term: when their Term expires, verily Allah has in his sight all His servants.
This is a parable for you:
Imagine a billionnaire who wants to hire some investors in his company, imagine that he submits them to a test of admission before to hire them:
He gives 1 billion dollar to each investor and ask them to invest it reasonably into good opportunities, he reminds them that this money is not theirs
and that they are responsible for it, and he gives them a year before to evaluate them. He finally gives them a contract which sums up their mission
and they all have to sign it.
Imagine the ones of them who spend their billion in 1 day at the casino or in shopping, without even respecting their mission, without even respecting
the contract they have signed andwithout even thinking that they have to pay back this billion.
How do you qualify these people?
These people are just like the people who end their terrestrial life as unbelievers and who have totaly forgotten God and his rules.
Now, Thanks to God, I've answered to your question, I won't provide you further details, my reponse is complete enough. The choice is fully yours
now.
