Christian Brehs: (Humbly) Why would God make it so that people cannot accurately assess their own intelligence?

[null]

further to https://www.thecoli.com/threads/chr...make-some-people-smarter-than-others.1038248/ .

arguments about variety notwithstanding why would god make it so people cannot assess their own intelligence?

that would be like god making it so #short-gang saw themselves as tall or slow runners believing they were usian bolt.

why would god hide a person's own intelligence reality from them? for amusement? for fukkery?

Why is assessing your own intelligence important when the only intelligence worth having is believing in and having faith in God, both of which will showcase your real intelligence in how you act and the path you walk.

God's power can manifest in the actions of someone who isn't intelligent but walks the path.

Some things are just beyond your understanding. Just believe and enjoy the ride.

Why is assessing your own intelligence important

because lack of common understanding (note: not opinion) guarantees conflict.

from the rest of his threads

it seems like the JWs have put into his head this idea of inaccessibility as an attribute of God

and now its the pattern he knows

the idea of rethinking his beliefs he thinks hes already done, so most of his questions are silly

cause hes asking men what they believe about God, instead of just reading his scriptures and praying and repenting

Conflict between who?

people.

see the other thread / TLR for examples.

like people asked the non-apostle first century christians questions.

check your bible.

 

[Still Benefited]

Why would men allow other men to assess their intelligence. Unless of course the man assesing was blessed with knowledge and wisdom from the source/lightcodes?


Who is causing you to assess your intelligence?God or man?

 

[Geek Nasty]

You can if you practice humility

 

[Vandelay]

The lord works in mysterious ways, something, something, something...

 

[FS4LFE]

Something something mysterious ways

Something something gotta have faith


Something something don’t question god


Religion is the only aspect of life where it’s a bad thing to question bullshyt. You’re just supposed to blindly believe things even if they don’t make sense.



The fact of the matter is that a lot questions you might have about religion won’t be answered until you’re dead; which will be when it’s too late. It’s 2024 and no “god” has shown himself, ended the world, or done anything significant to remove doubt of it’s existence.

A lot of people are only religious because it was forced on them at a young age. They didn’t question it out of fear of backlash. They’ll just talk in circles or give you some type of vague quote that will hopefully shut you up. It’s sounds like a cult..

I gotta read a thread to understand this thread.

you had two options.

and unless you joined thecoli yesterday, I'm guessing you are familiar with (mis-)understanding based conflict in TLR (or even the world at large).

Why didn't you just up the old thread.

separate (but related) topic.

what does this even mean?

this is why i say you have some serious unresolved issues that you are not going to get answered here until you take the false lense off
