09 Mar '16 09:38Originally posted by SuzianneIs that what you think 'What is important to God' would be for those that do not believe in God - if God were real? I would have thought KellyJay's question was better answered by those it was addressed to ~ those who do not believe in God.
Faith. Love. Loyalty. Obedience.
Just off the top of my head, you understand.

09 Mar '16 10:04Originally posted by SuzianneI rather thought that the OP question was for those that do not believe in God. Do you really think Christian Kelly Jay is asking Christian Suzianne "What is important to God?" with this OP?

I was answering the question, if you don't mind too terribly much (and even if you do).
09 Mar '16 10:29Originally posted by KellyJayWell, as you know, I don't believe in your God figure ~ that is to say the God figure you describe and talk about and who presumably affects your behaviour and thinking with regard to spirituality as demonstrated on this forum (as I don't know you in any other context).

09 Mar '16 10:36Originally posted by KellyJayIt depends on what sort of God. For a loving God, it would obviously be important that whatever is best for the people he loves come about eg happiness, longevity etc.

Will the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams, or with ten thousands of rivers of oil? shall I give my firstborn for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul? He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God? (Micah 6:6-8 KJV)

Faith. Love. Loyalty. Obedience.

Love would be the only one I can concur with.
Faith seems nonsense. Why believe anyone for nothing instead of trusting someone based on previous experiences?
Loyalty/Obedience: Is there much of a difference between these two? God and I never made an agreement when I started this life. Why should he expect me to follow his rules, when we never agreed on the terms and conditions?
