To Ask Mr. Religion and Nang,
I was disturbed by the fact that you two believe that every evil and wicked thing that happens is a result of Gods will (God wants it to happen).
It was claimed by Ask Mr. Religion that:
Quote:
|
"God’s creatures can do what they want, but what they want is determined by God in advance..."
|
This just does not make sense. In response I claimed that it seemed so wrong to me. To which Nang replied:
Quote:
|
"It doesn't matter how it "seems" to you, or how you "feel" about it . . . it is biblical."
|
Nang then claimed that because I didn't believe the way you two do I
was a vessel of wrath:
Quote:
|
"If you refuse to believe these truths found in the Word of God, you exhibit the mindset of an unbelieving atheist and vessel of wrath"
|
I then stated how wicked it was to claim that God is responsible for all the wickedness and evil in the world.
Ask Mr. Religion replied that:
Quote:
|
"God is sovereign and has ordained all things….Therefore it is good that evil exists."
|
This literally made me sick to my stomach. It is as if you think that God NEEDS evil for His goodness to be made known. This is so silly. God was good before the fall…when there was no evil.
Nang then replied with an odd statement:
Quote:
|
"He sees all that transpires . . .even on these (asinine) discussion groups."
|
This is odd because Nang not only believes that God sees all that transpires (which I agree with)…but that
He predestined all to happen from eternity past!
Because of this I think it is odd that Nang and Ask Mr. Religion get upset with people on this thread because everything that people write was destined to be done from before the foundation of the world! How can you get upset with someone when they are doing that which God wants them to do?
Remember, it was you Mr. Religion that stated:
Quote:
|
"God’s creatures can do what they want, but what they want is determined by God in advance..."
|
So, I have waited to post for a few days to think about what I should do. I thought about what it was that God had destined me to do from eternity past.
What I did was to make a little video so that I can post it here to help people understand the views of Nang and Ask Mr. Religion (and Pastor Cook

It was put together rather quickly so it may be kind of cheesy…but I just wanted to help spread the "truths" of what Nang and Mr. Religion teach:
