Ok, so. I was trying to learn more about Jesus. I have a few question, as I am an atheist, but seek to know more about why you believe what you believe. PLEASE do not just say because he is the heavenly father or something like that. a-=(

1. Why does God create humans that need to go to hell in the first place? If he is all holy shouldn't he create others that are as well?

2. How do you know Jesus rose from the dead? Did anyone see him?

3. Why doesn't god wipe out all evil and suffering and pain if he can?

4. If god loves all why does hell exist?

5. What crime deserves to have an eternity of suffering?

6. How did god come up with a list of things you can't do?

7. If human evils have to be allowed so we can have free will, then why did god create natural evil (e.g. flood, tornado, disease)

Thanks guys!

Best answer
1. God created us to live know and serve him in this life and the next.

2. Well the apostles and the women saw him.

3. Because he gave the first humans the choice and they choose evil. Also God gave us free will to choose good or bad

4. Same as the last answer God gave us free will.

5. Mortal sins.

6. He came up with a list of morally bad things such as killing because you shouldn't take someone else's life.

7. God gives us free will. The natural punishments are a result of our sins.

Wow that was a lot I hope it helps!!!

1 humans were the reason that some of us go to hell. Adam and Eve sinned in the Garden of Eden, which brought sin into the world.

2 yes, people did see Jesus living once (it is in history books other than the bible) and people did see him after he rose from the dead.

3 he does--for believers--because when Jesus died, all sin from the past and future will now be forgiven. We just have to believe in Jesus for everlasting life and we will be forgiven. And yes, all suffering will be wiped out at the end of days, and the believers will live with Jesus forever after.

4 I don't have the answers to this one yet

5 the only way to get to hell is by NOT believing that Jesus dies for our sins. If we believe in Jesus, we will go to heaven and then the renovated earth and then the new earth.

6 in the Bible it says that he made the Law to show us how sinful we are. When Jesus came he said that being good doesn't matter to relieve everlasting life. But following the commandments is important as we will be rewarded later by it.

7 all natural disasters as diseases entered the world because Adam and eve sinned.

Hope this helped!

God can do anything, but he has a right not to.Also Jesus DID rise from the dead. If you ever find something like... the FIRST bible, or at least the most truthful one, maybe believe in everything it says because god made it, and he never makes mistakes. If anybody ever calls you a mistake, say this: We are all the same go doesn't MAKE mistakes >:)
