I Don't Understand This by Mikel99(m): 2:23pm On Oct 07, 2023
Is it possible for an evil man or woman or a person who destroys the lives of other people's children to have successful children?
I asked because people often say that what you do to other people's children will come back to your own children ten folds.

I want the opinion of a very SPIRITUAL person

Ofcourse! undecided

Stop blinding yourself to all that is right before you pretending you are being spiritual in your ignorance. Even the most evil experience success by the world's standard which requires no spiritual sense to observe. No spiritual bullsheet required to observe that with one's own eyes. undecided

Yes each man with his destiny. And your destiny is in your hands not because of what this or that does. Good and evil originate from the same source depends on what you want to transmit. Hope that helps any further question

If you are a Christian, go and read the life story of David, how he collected Urias wife and how he killed him, read what happen to him towards the end of his life, what he children did to him, how he ran into the wilderness for days, etc

David was a righteous man of God long before the incident with Uriah --- God selected David to be king especially for that reason. Do you really think it makes sense to compare your unrighteous Christian existence with that of a righteous man like David? What happened to David has nothing to do with the pattern to be observed in the unrighteous. undecided

Yes!

But success too is a punishment ask Solomon.

Mikel99:
Is it

True! God does punish them in several different ways.

And check it out, those destroying other people's children do also destroy their own children whilst trying to protect and promote them.

That is what God has done such that as they are destroying others, they are also destroying their own.

■ So what are the last words of Jesus on the cross as he died
Those words Jesus Christ cried out on the cross were the words spoken by David in Psalm 22 vs 1. Read through the rest of the same psalm to realize that it was an emotions driven cry---- a question really ---' from a man in pain. God never did forsake Him even though it felt as though He had. This is evidenced by His actual last words--- " into your hands I command my Spirit." If God had truly forsaken Him, He wouldn't have said that. undecided

Clearly not what the bible Said for we saw some kings of Isreal walked righteously at their beginning and God cut them off when they became unrighteous e.g.. Solomon

Stop twisting what He said to fit a false interpretation you have been fed... Jesus Christ clearly asked a question . undecided

2. Does it really matter how they each died? undecided

3. Yes, we do. Majority of them were murdered. Even Jesus addressed that while announcing He too would go the same way. What has that to do with this topic though? undecided

4. You don't even know what it means for a righteous man to be forsaken yet you jumped in? To be approved righteous is to gain God's undivided attention and focus --- access to all of the promises of God as well as His promise to never leave or forsake one. So, to be forsaken by God means one is denied God's attention, promises and is abandoned by God --- left to fend for oneself. undecided

God promised those who belong to Him that He will never leave nor forsake them. None of the prophets who were murderers were abandoned by God, and certainly neither was Jesus Christ who made it known to you that His death was of His own accord as He has power to lay down his life and pick it back up again - John 10. undecided



Back to the question asked by Jesus Christ on the cross, I suggest you read the entirety of Psalm 22 to understand David's Lamentation from which it came from. God never abandoned David even though David felt dismay and dejection on many occasions. undecided
Re: I Don't Understand This by Kobojunkie: 3:45pm On Oct 07, 2023
Scripture never speaks of God abandoning even Solomon. lipsrsealed lipsrsealed lipsrsealed
9 Now the Lord was angry with Solomon because his heart had turned away from the Lord, the God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice,
10 and had commanded him regarding this thing, that he was not to follow other gods; but he did not comply with what the Lord had commanded.
11 So the Lord said to Solomon, “Since [i]you have done this, and you have not kept My covenant and My statutes, which I have commanded you, I will certainly tear the kingdom away from you, and will give it to your servant.
12 However, I will not do it in your days, only for the sake of your father David; but I will tear it away from the hand of your son.
13 Yet I will not tear away all the kingdom, but I will give one tribe to your son for the sake of My servant David, and for the sake of Jerusalem, which I have chosen.” - 1 Kings 11 vs 9 -13
Even in his unfaithfulness, God still spoke to Solomon, something God does not do with any who are unrighteous. undecided

11 “I am the good shepherd; the good shepherd lays down His life for the sheep.
12 He who is a hired hand, and not a shepherd, who is not the owner of the sheep, sees the wolf coming, and leaves the sheep and flees; and the wolf snatches them and scatters the flock.

16 And I have other sheep that are not of this fold; I must bring them also, and they will listen to My voice; and they will become one flock, with one shepherd.
17 For this reason the Father loves Me, because I lay down My life so that I may take it back.
