aw i see. kini diay imu pasabut. Thank You.
i too once had the same questions. but there are few things we need to consider first. before getting a different perspective on God's ways.

1. why are those people being punished? why were they killed?and who were those people?
were they given chances?

2. does being killed automatically means being forsaken or damned? what if those people repented when God met them when they died?
remember early Chrsitian faithfuls were also given to the enemy to be martyrd. even Jesus Himself gave himself. does that mean God abandoned them?

3. Do we really know what God has in mind when He allowed those things to happen?Do we have a clear view about what is right and wrong?
diba we have experienced blessings bursting forth from unpleasant events?
diba its through making wrong choices we know the right ones?

4. is our view about salvation the same with God's?
that's why we find people questioning God for life's hardships when they pray everyday and have faith in Him.
we often forget the part that this life is passing, and what matters really is what lies ahead.
and that most of the bad things that happened were a product of our own wrong choices..

5.if ever death is the only way for salvation, would that still be Evil?
if problems and struggle would open our eyes and our hearts, are they still evil?
say God allowed a very righteous man to die at a very young age..
sa ato kay bati kaayo na nga buhat sa Ginoo kay buotan gud dpat i bless unta diba? what if lang ha, kadtong righteous nga tao if wala to siya namatay
years after he might end up selling his soul to the devil...so ma impierno pa nuon siya..point really is our understanding about blessing is way too far from God's perspective ug dako kaayo ug role ang faith aning mga panahona.

regarding sa changes from OT to NT di man pud pasabut sayop to ang OT ways mao giilisan..
but they were rather fulfilled by the fullness of Jesus' coming and Sacrifice.
this article explains better than i do, so if its ok with you...please refer to this link:
God's Change in Old and New Testaments: Does God Change? - 2pi.info



First we need to ask ourselves...
is God's jealousy really like the jealosy in us driven by insecurities,greed, lust and paranoia?

God wouldn't have issues with insecurities kay God naman Siya
He wouldn't have issues with greed 'cause He owns all things, He wouldn't lust over something 'cause He is completely the opposite.
and of course God is never paranoid 'cause He knows and sees all things.
therefore God is not jealous in the same way we humans do.

ok, suppose that you are all knowing and all seeing..
what would you feel, when you know that yourself is the best deal the other perosn could have but the other person just ceased or refuse to see it..
if you know that you can give the other person everything that could make him/her happy eternally but that other person just somehow finds his/her own way in settling for something less...
i think you too would be jealous over those other things..

God is the best of everything we could have..so when He say He is jealous over the other things we replace Him with...He doesn't mean He is insecure or something, it only means one thing..He loves us that much! and that because of that Love, He worked over time,went out the usuals just for us to figure out that He is what we need.

in a way
i even praise God for getting jealous over my sins and guilty pleasures
'cause that also means He is also holding out to me..

regarding Tithes..

Tithing esp in our age today with the new covenant is a personal conviction esp if certain percentage is involved..aside from the fact that it would help the church or church group financially if you come to think of it or if you believe that God owns everything and that whatever you have is nothing more but just a blessing
10% is not even enough.. we sometimes even give 100% of ourselves to other things doesnt bring us good..example would be vices and guilty pleasures.

personally, tithing is basically Helping the Church in every way..
some may be convicted with the 10%, others may be through services,others may be giving church maintenance for free...but we all know that
the church also needs funds on a daily basis...kung korakoton man gani atong gi hatag...problema na na sa nagkorakot..

here is a link about tithing,you may wanna check this out
What is the Church's position on tithing? | Catholic Answers

bro mao nay problema kay the bible teaches us that God loves us "unconditionally" meaning whatever happens He should not have done the killings, flood, etc I mean based sa imo explanation naa jud chance nga ang nakasala mausab jud but in your case is kad2ng nangamatay na ang imo pasabot.. A God that is made up according to a Man's image is what I see nga naa sa bible and yes I still believe we are made according to the image of a God and I thought that the bible has been corrupted long time ago..

God gave Man one of the greatest privilege w/c is "freewill" but God in the old testament defied that privilege he gave kay He intervened man sa mga activities sa tao punishing them with death in different ways..

you spoke about "right and wrong" and Yes perhaps wala pa au nato magrasp unsay naa sa mind sa usa ka God..
yet the bible said heaven is a place of peace and we know God is all knowing, all seeing, etc. how can heaven be peaceful If God that is all powerful let deluge happen seeing everything on earth suffer?.. if ikaw naa sa heaven bro makakita ka ana would heaven be a peaceful place for you?..

I think deli pata OT ani since this question is supposed to be answered in all christian denominations and yes this I question according to the denomination created by this thread..

i need an answer not a counter question..

kon makatubag ka, tubagon sad tika..

my apologies dear...

But I think ang answer ani kay naa sa mga previews posts, I dunno if nakabasa ka about the repeating of prayers.. I believe nka post sad kog answer ani thats why I ask you with that question also..

you ask about Novena and Rosary right ug why gipractice pani sa RC nga wala man ni sa bible?..
Yes wala na ug deli na makita sa bible but those 2 are forms of prayers..

niingon man and bible nga pray always/constantly..

@ BOYEN

Dont make it sound na gi oppress ka . Kung tinuod ka na KATOLIKO , then you are confused . You should enroll yourself to a CATHECISM intead of arguing here na tubagon kan , ingnon nimo ug sayop kay naa kay laing answer diay. That is not CATHOLIC at all.

Ayaw na cge pasingit ha ? Unsya question nimo sunod ?

@ PSYCHOLOGIC

Maski bugal bugal and pinilosopo ni ang question nimo , in a logical way of answering it UNBIBLICALLY ....



During their time , mao na ang fashion statement . Di ka mahibulong ngano walay opaw pod sa unang panahon ?
