God does not just forgive everything. He offers forgiveness to those who accept jesus sacrifice on the cross and repent. God is even jealous of people who are his own such as the case with ancient isreal who than went astray because his love for them did not stop. Just as a husband would be jealous of an adulterous wife, even if he was willing to forgive if she stopped, his love still drives the jealousy. There is difference between condoning an act and forgiving a moral violation out of love and gods nature.
Perhaps it is. God did so much for us vote for him, accept his son and have the gift of eternal life. He alone is the rightful king.

-Romans 5.8
But I was speaking more to what he did do in the past, such as die on the cross.

You should stop using the bible as a source, the people you adress (including me) do not see it as a source. The question is interesting enough without it, what do you think yourself
I think you have misunderstood the nature of my op. It has nothing to do with showing the bible true. It responds to a common objection people have [such as i had when i was agnostic/atheist] that how come their is death and suffering if god is all loving. This seemed an inconstancy with a god of love. How could i worship a god who created an imperfect world? isent this an imperfect god than? wouldent this disprove the bible? to this thread is on an internal inconstancy with the bible not a proof of the bible as gods word. Now if someone such as yourself thought for yourself and read the op, I would assume they would have figured that out. As someone who if a former atheist but than learned to think for myself, i have concluded

if you want to start a thread on why some vague unknowable deist god of the universe allows for evil, than go ahead and start one. Asking why is their death and suffering and avoiding what the creators word [the bible] says on the subject is irrational and so i could not start such a thread, my apologies.
