<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Tahoma, Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>I'm outta this thread cuz I'm tired of people quoting the bible when scholars are finally admitting that the bible has been added to, rewritten, edited, you name it, it's been done. Why wasn't the Nag Hammadi, Pistus Sophia or Dead Sea Scrolls in the bible? Why were the canonical gospels the only ones included in the NT?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
The Bible is the inspired word of God, nothing else.
<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Tahoma, Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>Answer this: God created all, correct? So is he good or evil? Most would say good because he created goodness... but he also created all of the evil. Just think.... rape, poverty, murder... all of those things were originally created by God just as much as love, devotion, honor and courage. I would think God is neutral, judging by what we know. I would think all of the peoples that were smitten "in his name" would agree over the ages...

God DID NOT create evil. Lucifer chose that direction. Adam chose that direction. Adam brought sin into man's life.
Man chose his destiny. Hell was not created for man, it was created for Satan and his followers.
