Description
Is God black, white, or grey?Is He straight, bi, or gay?
Can He look at the sun and not blink?
Can He close his eyes with no need to think?
Does He create tornadoes with a sigh?
And storms with a stomp and a cry?
What does He see when He looks upon our race?
A game of cat and mouse with no need for a chase?
Does He know how our lives will end?
Can He remember every name?
At His will, does the world bend?
We just pieces of a board game.
Has He met the Goddess of love?
Did He create the beauty of a dove?
Does He know our destiny and pick our path?
Why did Haiti feel His wrath?
Is He too, controlled by the seven sins?
Does He, like us, count the losses but ignore the wins?
Is the bible His bedtime story?
Does He like to bask in His own glory?
Hold He the answer to every question?
Is He the only one out there thats attained perfection?
Had His tendencies ever been suicidal?
What're His opinions on humans that're homicidal?
Have you ever thought: "Which race does He prefer?"
If you ever saw Him, would you refer to Him as "Sir"?
Do Him and the devil agree to disagree?
How does He choose who to condemn and who to pity?
I wonder if He knows the cure to cancer,
I also wonder if he's any good a dancer
Does His face shine as bright as a light?
I bet He'd beat Chuck Norris in a fight...
Could He throw the earth just like a baseball?
Would He ever wear a hat?
I wonder if heaven has a town hall
Is He muscled? Skinny? Fat?
How sweetly do the angels sing?
How often does He get bored?
Does He wear a wedding ring?
What goal is He headed toward?
Why not pay attention to the neglected?
And look to see whom Hes affected
Can He take a step to end world hunger?
Or build a fountain to make us grow younger?
Does He listen to our prayers?
Even though He doesn't answer
Does He choose which innocent soul He spares?
Returning to our question about cancer
Would He ever cuss, curse, or swear?
Does He see our loved ones spirits in morning air?
He too must carry flaws...
Has He ever lived by laws?
Dear God, if You created us
Then who created You?
We have so many topics to discuss
A whole afterlife to go through
Tell us how the world begins
How it started with a single cell
But explain this: if You forgive all sins
How can anyone go to hell?

I'd love to try and give you an answer for every question on this, but I will only answer the last one.
Indeed, God forgives all sins, yet many people go to hell. Why?
You have to ask for His forgiveness, because he is willing to forgive you. The key is to not just mouth the words, but being genuinely sorry and truly, honestly intending not to repeat the sins. You have to repent your sins and not just go through the motions of saying sorry, for God knows what's in your heart.
Hell wasn't created by God, but by Satan. God forgives all sins so that people will be with Him in heaven. But Satan has his own sanctuary (which we call hell), where non-believers and people who go against God are sent at death.
I hope I made my point clearly so that you could at least know the answer to one of your many questions.
I understand that people have different opinions and that's why I try to be more open minded when it comes to religion specifically. I just want you to know that although I strongly believe in this, I respect every other religion and opinions on the subject.

Stylistically, I wish this weren't so sing-songy. This rhyming pattern undermines the thoughts. You seem to be grasping at straws to match the pattern at times, and that makes it seem a little cheesy.
As to your questions, hell is a mercy, not a punishment. Hell is quite simply separation from God. And since we have never experienced that in the mortal world, we do not realize how hideous that experience would be. It is not an active punishment or torment, but it is a torment to be separated from him. If hell did not exist, those who choose not to be with God eternally would cease to exist, for there is no existence that isn't given by God. But God cares enough, even about people who haven't chosen him, not to allow them to cease to be.
Your questions, and most people's, on this issue (for you certainly aren't the only person to wrestle with this issue) are based on a poor or very basic understanding of hell, an understanding based on fear and poor theology.
I hope this helps a bit. There is nothing wrong with having questions or doubts.

Thank you for your comment but everything you said about hell and god sounded almost like fact, you must keep in mind everyone has a different opinion
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Opinions don't negate facts, do they? Just because something is little-understood doesn't mean there isn't fact about it. I'm not saying I'm entirely correct, because no one has perfect theology, but if you leave something as important as hell open to human opinion entirely, and never to believe there is concrete fact about it- even if no one has it- you'll never understand any of the questions you raise, and then, what is the point of raising them?
You wouldn't leave something scientific open entirely to opinion, so why leave something theological to it?
I only ask as a matter of discussion, I do not believe I, or anyone else, has the right opinion, but that is the point, opinions do not make or negate facts and you must learn the distinction.

True enough, I hope it didn't sound like i was disagreeing with your opinion it's just that religion isn't my forte and I'm not sure where i stand in my beliefs

Absolutely, and I understand that.
But in your search for truth, I hope you realize that, even if you don't find it, there is such a thing as truth. Many seem to forget this point.

These questions you raise, with great poetic phrase
are destined to be your life ambition.
Enjoy the search, the quest, the dream.
Strive on with beauty and nobility serene.
Your path is true and I'm sure, for you,
you will find what you quest.
For you, my heart sings with joy
and desire. In this I wish you only the most best.
Search your questions and do not get sidetracked with those that are lost in words. You have written a poem. You express the hearts of many, if not all. and that, my dear, means you are on the right path.
Keep it up.

Based solely on the scientific information available right now none of these questions about God can be answered beyond all possibility of a doubt. And there are many religions that claim the existence of a God (or several) and some religions that claim that there is no such thing as a deity.
The best one can do is to learn as much as possible and then choose the most reasonable belief structure. But realize that whichever belief structure you settle on you really should get started on your journey right away because all beliefs, morals, and values have consequences. Keep in mind that the consequences of belief structures will ALWAYS manifest themselves in your own life, in the lives of those around you, and certainly on a global scale should many people accept similar beliefs.
A man named Denesh Desouza can be found on Youtube and is a brilliant debater, you may find his arguments fascinating if not enlightening.

Thank you for that information, I'm still wondering whether I believe in God or not.. I think I do

Denesh isn't a "channel" just a guy who is on you tube because he debates around the country.

I like this, and I believe in God, but I also believe that men twist his message for their own ends. I believe in a god who loves all his children regardless of race, creed, color, sexual orientation or any other issue....

Thanks, and i agree about that God should love all his children

That's a lot of questions. I'm not religious, but I know the answer to your last question. They go to hell because they did no accept the Lord into their lives... yeah I know, not the best answer ever, I've always had questions like this.. And if you ever read the ten commandments and the 7 deadly sins side by side, you just shake your head in disbelief, well I did anyways.
I liked this poem though
