Speechless??

satisfaction, was it wrong to feel this way? While conversing about the Lord with a friend of mine and a group (three) people,all who are born again Christians. We were discussing why one would go to hell. I listen for thirty min. or so when I had a moment of clarity. I asked If they all believe that God has forknowledge of all things from the (end to the beginning) and I emphasize on God knowing the END first to the BEGINING. They all agreed. Then I asked if they believed that God is ALL loving and ALL mercifully. They all said YES! Then I asked the question that they had no ansewers for. I said I don't believe that there is a place call hell. That an all loving and all mercifully God would create a place just to send non believers and sinners to torture for all eternity.Well they had all kinds a reasons for God creating hell. But then I said OK here we have God all loving all mercifully knows the END from the beginning, creates humanity knowing before He even creates them that most of them would go to hell where they will be tortured forever and ever. I said Man that doesn't sound too loving and mercifully to me. I said the God I believe in and worship would never do such a thing. I said how could y'all worship that kind of God? I waited ten Min's or so listening to the wheels spin in their heads trying to come up with some ansewers. Then I excused myself and floated off. I guess I don't have a question as much as a feeling I wanted to asked about. I felt good that I put a shot across their bow and made them think. Hey, maby I planted a seed of truth?? Most of the time I would have listen to their conversation and not really comment. But I had a strong feeling that came over me, and the next thing I know my mouth was moving and words were coming out.

Darren,
Very well done, you said just enough to make them have to think instead of giving them answers.
GOD Does use you for HIS Purpose when HE Is Ready.

Man, God is working in you awesomely, Daren :D :D
I can remember an Elder from my old Church talking about God being in the present past and future all at the same time. showing with all the fingers of his hands coming down on the table all at the same time as he explained to me. It was like when you have a handful of small seeds in your hands and then let them drop onto the floor with a straight line drawn on the floor. You have no idea which of the seeds will land on the left of the line which is hell(eternal punishment) and which will fall to the right which is heaven. I didn't know what he was on about. :-\
He did say too that God does love everyone eternally even all that are in hell(eternal punishment). ???
In other words it would be impossible to get him to accept reason. ::)

Darren,when the Spirit wants to move you,speaking the Truths of the Father, He certainly will do that. There have been many a time that when speaking to people about the Truths of the Spirit my mouth was moving and the Truth of our Father was pouring out of me like a broken dam.When I was done providing a point of Truth it was like where did all that just come from. :o
All Praise and Glory to the Father.
Peace... Mark

Marky Mark, I had this happen to me just a few times, I think twice. The words just flowed out so easily that I really did not know what I said until after I had said it. What I mean is that I did not have to think about what I was going to say very hard. It just came to me. I just did not want the feeling of pride come over me. You know what I'm saying? I wanted to be humble in what I said and not to be taken the wrong way. I know it comes down to (HOW) we talk to people is very important. Especially if you want to get a message across to them. You don't want to hurt their feelings or offend them. I just wanted them to see what kind of god their worshiping, and praying to. I try to be humble in all things I do and say but it dose not seem to be this way. It's something I must work on daily.
