ruffles' blog prompted me to write this. haha. check his out if ya will.
okay. we now have a God who is, according to Christians, all-powerful, all-perfect and completely benovelent, and Luciferians who believe otherwise. in this argument, i will combine both philosophical and Christian points of views.
one of the accusations here is that God is responsible for the mass genocide of Noah's time (this apparently, is one of the incidents). however, holding true the point that God is a perfect being, and also the Creator of the universe, He holds the right to take away the lives that He Himself created. can He then, be held accontable for taking away something He has created? parallel this to a writer who decides to destroy one of his works. he is then accountable to no one but himself, am i right?
in addition, i would assume that the common question ('if God was so good, why is there such suffering on this earth? why are diseases, sins and death rampant then?') contrary to popular belief, God is not the God of this earth (for those who have read one of my previous entries, please bear with me). when God created the earth, the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep (Genesis 1:1-2). according to the Gap Theory (theory meaning that it has not been proven), between this verse and the next, when God introduced light, there was a Heavenly War. Lucifer, the angel of music and entertainment, rebelled against God and 1/3 of the angels fell with him. (frjom this point, it is no longer a theory). at that point, Lucifer (more commonly known as Satan or the Devil), became the god of this earth. the sufferings humans bear with in this lifetime are all a result of the Devil's work. when Christ was born, Lucifer assumed that God had come to claim back this earth. God did not come for the earth, however, He came back for our hearts. that is why Christ died for us, to wash away all our sins so that we can join our Heavenly Father. We could not draw closer to Him before, as He is too holy for our presence, but now that He has given His Son to us, and created a new covenant signified by the sacrifice of Christ's blood, we can.
in the Luciferian's point of view, they have omitted the notion that God is Holy and perfect in all ways, a point which is carried through throughout this argument, on the other hand.
i would continue, but i admit that there are certain points which i need to refer to the bible in order to slam, so i can't do that as of now. feel free to question my points, i'm sure i can provide a substantial argument. and i'm hungry. haha.
another time perhaps? lets continue this when i next see ya.
