If Oil comes from dead dinosaurs, and plants. Why do we have to drill thousands of feet to reach it? Did dinosaurs live thousands of feet beneath the planets surface?

Question: "Is God fair?"

Answer: Fortunately for us, God is not fair.
Fairness would mean that everyone got exactly as he or she deserved and everyone would be treated the same. If God were completely fair, we would all spend eternity in hell paying for our sin, which is exactly what we deserve. We have all sinned against God (Romans 3:23) and are therefore worthy of eternal death (Romans 6:23). If we received what we deserve, we would end up in the lake of fire (Revelation 20:14-15). But God is not fair; instead, He is merciful and good, so He sent Jesus Christ to die on the cross in our place, taking the punishment that we deserve (2 Corinthians 5:21). All we have to do is believe in Him and we will be saved, forgiven, and receive an eternal home in heaven (John 3:16). However, despite God’s loving grace, no one would believe in Him on his own (Romans 3:10-18). God has to draw us to Himself in order for us to believe (John 6:44). God does not draw everyone, but only certain people He has sovereignly chosen (Romans 8:29-30; Ephesians 1:5,11). This is not “fair” in our eyes because it appears God is not treating all people equally. However, God does not have to choose anyone. Those whom God has chosen are receiving God’s love and grace. But all have the opportunity to respond to the revelation of the creation (Psalm 19:1-3), as well as the conscience God has put within them (Romans 2:15), and turn to God. Those who do not will receive what they truly deserve because of their rejection of Him. Those who reject Him receive the punishment they deserve (John 3:18,36). Those who believe are receiving far more, and much better, than what they deserve. No one, though, is being punished beyond what he deserves. Is God fair? No. Thankfully, God is much more than fair! God is gracious, merciful, and forgiving - but also holy, just, and righteous. The above Used by permission: Got Questions.org http://www.gotquestions.org/is-God-fair.html ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Who does GOD chose? Those who actively seek him! The Book of John Chapter 3 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ GOD DOES pick some while still in the womb... but, they are chosen expressly for the purpose of service to Him, as in The OT... (Abraham, The Prophets, King David, etc.) They were picked to reveal Him, and to teach us more about what HE expects of us.) |

With what? A virtual machine gun? A cyber mallet ? We will have a virtual 'Save the Threads' or 'Thread extinction/endangered species' onslaught of virtual greenies, if someone starts massacring threads. Threads are people too. |

In our Armed Forces/Homeland Security/Law-Enforcement... Will/Would you fire your weapon, intending it to be a "Fatal Shot", to stop someone who was stealing foodstuffs to feed their Children or The Elderly/Disabled who cannot fend for themselves? I am serious here now, NO kidding... Couldn't do it...would probably carry an arm load for them, myself. That answer is what I would expect from a Neighbor!!!! I maybe should have made my question a little more clear for some folks: "....That you KNEW cannot fend for themselves?" |
