Does God make's mistakes ?

Have you ever thought of this question before? Can God make mistakes ? God is supposed to be perfect and He made men in their likeness. Since men are doomed to make mistakes , which means that either God is like us or God cannot be perfect ?

All the while , you have been accepting what you have been preached to by those church pastors and told not to question the Bible or God .




You have been accepting it as the gospel truth and never questioned the validity of those interpretations from those pastors, evangelist and preachers.Or ,you read the Bible and just simply take in what is said.

You are not critically minded and you don't question what is written because you have been conditioned or brainwashed by those teachers or pastors .

Are you in the majority group who thinks that you should never question the Bible ,God or those pastors? Did not God give us a brain to think and question what we are taught ?

Many Christians are like babies spiritually in their faith in God. They cannot think for themselves and listened only to their pastors .

What the pastor taught them , they swallowed whole ,hook,line and sinker. They think , the pastor who graduated from a seminary is right all the time.

I think this is wrong, pastors are also human beings and can make mistakes. Different pastors and different ethnic pastors have different versions. That is why there are so many denominations in the world today.

Let us examine rationally whether God can make mistakes. In the beginning, there was God and then He made angels to help Him do His work. He then made three arch angels in Gabriel, Michael and Lucifer to control all those lesser angels. Lucifer got too big headed and wanted to become God and there was a war in Heaven.Lucifer was defeated and all his angel followers were banished from Heaven.

In the beginning, God said ,Let there be light and in six days , he created the world and every plant and animals in the world and rested on the seventh day.

God created Adam in His likeness but He found that Adam was not perfect or inadequate. Adam was the first prototype. He wandered around in the garden of Eden and was lonely and God took pity on him.

When Adam was asleep, he took his rib bone and made Eve.. Why did God make Eve not the in the same likeness as Adam? Did God made a mistake in Adam? God created a more superior being to compensate what was lacking in Adam . That living being is called a woman . She was to be his helper or his 'tormentor.'

God put Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden and told them that they could eat the fruits of every tree except the fruits from the tree of knowledge. The serpent came and tricked Eve who told Adam to eat the forbidden fruit and God found them guilty and banished them from the garden.

That is what we read in the Bible. Did you think this judgment was correct or was it too harsh?

There was no mention of giving first or second warnings in the Bible. If you were conned and the judge said ,'Why are you so stupid to be conned and ate that rotten apple?.

Then the judge banished you like what the police here do when there is not enough evidence to charge you. Send you to another rural place or become a restricted person.

Did God made a mistake. ? God is an all forgiving God. Why did God not forgive them ? Is it not contradictory to His teachings about forgiveness?

The mistake being, He did not made Eve smarter and was tricked by the serpent. Was it Eve's fault? God is a compassionate God but he expelled them from the garden..God's forgiveness is limitless , yet He did not forgive Adam and Eve even though it was not exactly Adams fault.Blame it on the women .

In another incident, God wanted to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah but Lot ,interceded to God and asked Him to hold back. He told God , if He destroyed those two cities, He would also destroyed some good Christians .

Then God asked Lot if he can find 10 Christians in that two city, He would not destroy the two cities.Did God's fury blinded his decisions to destroy the cities and even those good Christians until Lot interceded and God relented?

Did God destroyed those two cities because they did not worshipped God but engaged in the same sex? God was angry the people did not listened to Him and worshipped idols and they lusted for the same kind.

Because of that, did God outlaw homosexuals? What if those people worshiped God in those two cities and they did have the gay sex? Would God be so kind to save the city and then slowly lead them back to the right path ?

I don't have the answers. These are thought provoking ideas. You decide and believe whatever you want.
