According to the bible Jesus said "Eli Eli Lema Sabachthani"
Do you know what that means in English? "My God, My God, why have you forsakened me?"
Yes, even Jesus felt abandoned. And yes, I am aware this is a song but there is a reason he was singing it at his dead (assuming it even happened this way)
Even a human parent wouldn't be this cruel

Well if God is this destructive to his own creation and people then he is either a false god or a god not worthy of worship. Even a human parent wouldn't be this cruel. That means that the love of humans are more humble than the love of the God you describe.

A God willing to put his own son and people he claims to love through torture is either a false God or not worthy of any worship at all. His kingdom will never come to be because a house divided against itself cannot stand.

The Angels didn't ask me to sign anything.
Demons asked me to sign. Let me make it simpler for you.
Wait, didn't you say earlier...
I signed a contract.
I made a 'deal' so to speak that I could resist the lure of evil for the 40 days and 40 nights to be worthy of the knowledge I now possessed. What they referred to as a 'Trial of my purity of heart'. If I fail, I have no doubt that I shall probably die as it was my 'soul' that I wagered. Or worse I will probably end up an instrument of evil in some form or another. But this will not happen!
So, let me get this straight.
It was DEMONS who asked you to sign a contract to resist evil for 40 days and 40 nights?
I think you might have tripped yourself up on that one.

Do you not find the fact that our messages oppose each other, worthy to be noted?
We are fighting for two opposite kingdoms.
Men will have to decide for themselves which one is Truth and which one is the clever counterfeit. As DeadEyeDick stated, it is truly time to make a decision, however it is not too late to choose life. The counterfeit will enforce that decision upon men, forcing them to represent his name. At the moment of decision of those who take his name, only then is it too late. Those who choose otherwise will suffer the physical death of their body, but gain eternal life. The others will have chosen life for their physical bodies, but at the expense of the death of their soul.
I encourage everyone reading this thread to knead what I've shared, thoroughly sifting my words to find any which are not in accordance with the Word of God. You will never witness me add or subtract to the Words which we have been given. They are sound and trustworthy to hold the precious faith of Believers, a faith that will not return to them empty.
“Without having tasted lemon, could you still say sugar sweet?
If we were not to know hard work, could reward still hold meaning?
It is through knowing the bitterest this world has to offer, that we learn to appreciate the sweetest of bitters.
And by such distinction, see true height given to the measure of our joy.

So The Heart Chakra (Center of Chest) - Love Care is most important for revealing intentions. Interesting.
I have a question about "will". What do you believe our "will" should be? If we were all in heaven there would be no need to help each other because we would already be happy, so in that case what would our "will" be in a perfect paradise?
My guess would be joy - doing what we want - not desire (longing, greed) but focusing on HAPPINESS and sharing that with others. I would love your point of view though, BornOfSin.
Here is a secret I learned about karma that I would like to share:
MERCY/FORGIVENESS is the key to overcoming JUDGMENT/KARMA. Do this and then any fears of your past wrongs would be gone because you have forgiven others and likewise have forgiven yourself.
Verse
It feels a little strange to me, that you could live happily ever after.
While I'm in misery.
Wasting all my time on the streets, searching for a meaning somehow lost.
Hoping that someone would find me.
Prechorus
Moving forward but going nowhere
No passion in our grief
If I fall down we'll fall forever
The minutes turn to hours and the hours pass me by.
Chorus
Broken and crazy in the middle of the night.
What they say will kill me, makes me feel right.
A broken world needs a broken man.
I love you now, like I loved you then.
Broken and crazy for the past 40 nights.
Healing the poison makes me feel right.
Bleed in the world, till I'm sure its dead.
I love you now, like I Ioved you then.
Verse 2
Feels a little strange to see, tomorrow is not what I had hoped it would be
So blind I couldn't see
Wasting time and rotting my dream
Never wanted to drag you down with me,
To air unfit to breathe.
Prechorus
Moving forward but going nowhere
No passion in our grief
If I fall down we'll fall forever
The minutes turn to hours and I'm an hour close to dying
Chorus
Broken and crazy in the middle of the night.
What they say will kill me, makes me feel right.
A broken world needs a broken man.
I love you now, like I loved you then.
Broken and crazy for the past 40 nights.
Healing the poison makes me feel right.
Bleed in the world, till I'm sure its dead.
I love you now, like I Ioved you then.
Middle 8
Its the strangest dream to have right now
Feels like all the joy is leaving me, inside I start cry
It's the strangest feeling but somehow, this light
Is going to pull me away
Chorus
Broken and crazy in the middle of the night.
What they say will kill me, makes me feel right.
A broken world needs a broken man.
I love you now, like I loved you then.
Broken and crazy for the past 40 nights.
Healing the poison makes me feel right.
Bleed in the world, till I'm sure its dead.
I love you now, like I Ioved you then.
I'll bleed in this world, I'll bleed in this world till I'm dead.
