WOW...a lot to this entry. I'm probably going to be skipping around, and I'm sure I'll have more answers later, but I wanted to go ahead and respond. First of all, I don't know anything about "Lilith". As far as I know and have been taught, there was Adam and Eve, that's it ( ... )

EPH 6:10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. 18 And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be ( ... )

2 things justine, "if God didn't exist, then we wouldn't be here." I dont believe that, thats one thing. Creationism is what genisis says. that God created the world in 7 days, That my mind cant comprehend, im sure there is some form of higher being, but it had to come from something. and just saying God's always been there doesnt make any sense. (dont take my pondering on religon as an opppertunity to triy to convert me ( ... )

Well... I honestly don't know where to begin. (For all intents and purposes, assume that God is referring to the god of the Christian dogma) For one thing, I don't understand how Creationism and the concept of Free Will are related. Perhaps we have different understandings of what exactly Creationism is. My working definition would be that Creationism is the belief that God created the Universe. The end. Perhaps you could explain your perspective?

I don't understand this:
"because, If theres an all powerful god, but he then gives us free will, why does he even exist at all?"
What do you mean? Why would God (or do you mean a god in general?) create a system that he has no influence in? Please try to clarify.

"If God is all powerful, Why does he allow Lucifer Morningstar and his court to do what they wish?"I'm assuming here that you're referring to the fallen angel Lucifer (if you're not then you'll need to explain) and the angels that fought on his side during the war with Michael (I believe) the Archangel. So why does God ( ... )
