An excellent point, Lil B.
The Bible has so many faults and pot-holes.
I think its a tricky question as to whether he/she/it should be allowed to judge us. After all God it seems willingly and knowingly created something that he knew was imperfect, and would eventually need to be judged. If the basis that God is "all knowing" is true, then really there is a question of needing to be judged at all, as really he knows what is going to happen, who will be naughty and nice as it were.
However, in many man mad legal systems it is a punishable crime to know about something terrible going to happen and do nothing. If a person is about to get in a car rigged with explosives, or go and shoot his wife or whatever, and somebody stands by fails to do anything to stop it, then they can be legally liable. In that sense God is an accessory to every evil deed, every criminal act ever to occur. Of course the thing then is that if real, he could have stopped any and/or all of them, but apparently didn't. Perhaps we do deserve to be judged, but then I also say that so does God. Just as the creator can be held accountable for his creation, of a parent for their child.
Listen, I dont think you understand. ANd just as you know the creator of a chil dis not it's parents it's God.
God knows what's gonna happen, but MAN has he';s own mind. God made man with his own mind. Knowing good from eveil. So he CAN judge us. Who ar ewe to judge God. Through him is nothing made.
Listen, please read The Bible. Genesis, to start with.
You aint gonna regret it. It's got all your answers.

I still say God should be open to judgement. Yes, he created us (if its true), but I don't think that should somehow negate all responsibility. I dislike that logic, so common in classic horror, where the mad creator draws back in horror and cries "but I created you, you can't do this". However, invariably they are "judged" by their creation (often in a flurry of bad special effects). But as said b-ball_chick, God created knowledge of good and evil, and I believe that it also means he created evil, and he permits evil. Honestly I don't care about the concept of free will. I see some guy planning on blowing up an orphanage, I don't shake my head and say "Well, he has free will, I will let this evil happen as its his choice", and I think its a weak argument on Gods part if that's where he stands. The fact would be, in my mind, that God is THE creator, and he KNEW what his creation was going to do. In fact he created them fully aware of what was evil, what was good, and who was going to do which. He created things, apparently, that to us have no other purpose then evil. This makes him equally liable in my books as we are.
Everyone will will be judged after they die here or at great white throne judgement when the books will be open and will be judged on 5 things.And it said in the old days that if murdered someone it would be better to tie a rope around your throat with a stone and throw it into the ocean. thats what I read so don't get mad.

I was raised that He would judge all, but now...well..I don't know..I mean God is more than we can comprehend, why would he really want to. Maybe it's mans ideas that snuck into the scripture. Because only man like to judge others. I would think God would be above that.
a simple question, if you created a robot capable of thinking indipendantly,and capable of feeling emotions, would that give you the same power over him that relegions give god over humans............i dont think so, plus what i dont get is why god had to create the whole universe i the first place if he is complete in himself and neither wants nor needs anything? of course we can make it all a heluva lot less complicated if we believe that god doesnt exist.

god gave us a free will... thats why he wont stop anyone from a murder cause then this person would have no longer a free will... so... he created us... i think he has the right to judge us, because he gave all those rules how we should live and could live in harmony and we just ignore these rules and do what we like to do... so he has the right to judge us because we didnt keep the rules 🙂
