God is punishing me.

god plays no role here on earth we make our on choices alone

If God doesn't play a role here on Earth, then could you please explain to me how people get miracously healed? Explain how glorious things happen on Earth that people can not explain?

Not trying to start a war on this but just curious how you explain those things.

....Simply put...your temptations and mine will never be the same, because God knows my weaknessess and my strengths personally.
What this does is make me even MORE responsible when I fail, because I can always go back to this verse and understand that I COULD HAVE overcome...BUT it gives me hope and power in the understanding that while in the middle of any circumstance in my life..I just need to "keep on pushing"...because the situation is NOT beyond my power (through God) to overcome.

I don't think that he 'tests' us in a sense as though the outcome is in question LLT. What i mean is,...being as that 'God' is the creator of all things,....time and or space in a sense of continuim would mean nothing to 'him'.

Simply,...he knew of every move and or decision you would make before he actually created you. And therefore what could be considered as 'tests' in life by us,...are but mere 'guidance' in the direction that 'must be'. Based upon your particular 'script' if you will.

Yes,..... laughing at the 'psuedo scientists' or any that believe that this 'life', or plain of existence has no 'design' at all and is just merely "random coincidence".

Hmmm...

Jeremy.... tell me if I am wrong... but I read your original post not as a plea for an actual answer, but as a tongue-in-cheek comment to the likes of, "I REALLY can't stand this guy!"
