Why a GOD, what purpose does EVIL hold, and what purpose does Satan serve? 

Why man? Because he was made man, he is bound to struggle. But, why, and why is God called He and not She? I tried to answer these questions in my books and the books that are yet to come. I invite you to go on this journey with me, for it is all that man has.

Why a God?  Where did this God come from, what does the name god even mean, and should a man, who is an animal, even ask such questions? Although, man is a philosophical animal, is he capable of answering a question that determines its' purpose, its place in creation, its' destiny, and to show that he is only a means to an end, for one day he will cease to exist?

The first answer could be found in the simple verse Acts 17:29, which says, "Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God..."

Thus, to ask those question is to ask about ourselves. This is the moral right of a being, who is unable to see where it came from, nor see after its moment on earth, nor hold itself in the place it could only exist, for it dies and leaves the world. It is an imagining, thinking being’s duty to ask these questions. Why else was man given these god-like aptitudes?

If God is a parent, can a parent forbid the child to ask what I am, where did I come from, and why you brought me in the world?

Abraham would say yes. Because he took it upon himself to ask the Lord in Genesis 18:25, "Shall not the judge of all the earth do, right?

Man has the right to ask even thou Paul might disagree, but he was from Benjamin and not even a Levite, let alone a son of Aaron.  Man must ask, for it is the only answers that will give its life meaning. Everything else about the man is superficial, what he does for living, what he likes, how he sees the world, and even who he loves. Because these things are based on culture that man creates and that creates the man.

I’m going to answer the second question with a question.  If you are the offspring of God, then the very definition of offspring says the answers are within. All this imagining and thinking being has to do is simply study himself, for the answers are within, but not without, for the world is a physical place and if you look there, you will got a worldly answer.  It is said in Psalms 82: 6, "I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High."

Why evil and is there a different evil for angels and man?

What if, I say evil was God’s greatest creation.

Then that would make Satan God’s cat’s paw.

If God is life, then his enemy would be death.   

When God created man, he created something that was half dead and half alive. Thus, the body is dead without the spirit.  WHY DO YOU THINK MAN HAS TO EAT FROM THE TREE OF LIFE?  Angels don’t, because Angels are made of life and man only has an angel in him animating a corpse. Thus, man is not alive, but has life in him. (Romans 21 I find then a law; that, when I would do good, evil is present with me.)  No wonder man’s imagination is evil from his youth, for death will always fight against life.

This would make man the offspring of Satan and God. I think we have always known this. Why do we in movies, books, and songs put the devil on one shoulder and God on the other.

Maybe when God created man and he said this is very good. He wasn’t talking about man, but what he was able to do.

Paul would say the latter.  (Romans 8:20 For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope.)

Did we really believe that Satan is a fallen angel? If God is an angel and he doesn’t have a free will (thus it is impossible for God to lie or be tempted with sin.) God can’t go against what he is and then all his lesser parts don’t have a free will either for angels are part of God’s very being.

And last why is God called he and not she.

This is a hard question but an easy answer.

about

PART OF MY LIFE I remember the time on Curies street when I was a kid and where a part of me still is. That was the first place we lived when my grandmother moved us from Mississippi to Omaha. One of my last memories of Bessie was seeing her in the yard watching the cars as they traveled past our home. We thought that she was probably wondering where they are coming from and where they are going to and probably remembering a time in her life when she traveled. Like when, she brought us to this last leg of our journey from Mississippi. We believe that she knew that was her last trip and that she will never be able to go on another one. She had rust on her now and her blue paint had faded and the life that had been in her wheels where gone, but she would still run for me and my brothers and cousins. We used to sit in her and imagine driving to all of the places that she had been.
