Do you not understand the meanings of the words, or are you making your own meaning?

I understand, you're simply wrong. God could take anything He wants, but He doesn't. Not because He can't, but because He gives us free agency. This does not impede on His omnipotence or His omnipresence.

First of all, if this god is a "he" then that god is not omnipotent.

So, I am wrong only because you say so. 🙄 You can rationalize all you wish...

It's a reference. We all know that God is sexless.

Actually I showed you why your wrong. You haven't actually used any facts, or example, or analogies to back up your claims. It's not because I say so, it's because that's how it works according to the Bible, which is what you are questioning...

I don't believe that the bible is any authority on the definition of words. Also, I may have been loosely referring to a passage in the bible, but I was not questioning the bible; I was questioning you.

Ah...someone misunderstands the nature of omnipotence. (FYI it doesn't say he is omnipotent in the bible...as for omnipresent..."Man, Where are you? Why do you hide from me?"😉

It does say He is all powerful though. Do you really think God didn't know where they were?

No, I think he just plays mind games...🙄

All powerful, but all powerful means you can do all that is possible, not all that is possible and impossible.

So...should we all pray for each other? Even if its not a prayer to a spiritual force but rather an inward hope that people are going to do OK?

Yes. You should pray for those who you hate, just as much, if not more, then those you love.

I don't hate anyone...

Sorry, if that distracted you from my point. What I should have said was "we should pray for our enemies as much as our friends".

Now don't say you don't have any enemies. 😆

Shaky, what you must remember about me is I am a universial friend to all peoples! 🙂

Seriously though, your correct and I do but when I said should we pray for each other I didn't mean in general but rather was the point of this thread for us all to offer up prayers...say, I pray JIA wakes up sort of stuff.
