Ignorance can be Mercy

I was watching a video on youtube.com where an anonymous atheist was "proving" his point. His argument was that if creation had occurred then it would do so again and would be observed today. His example was a jar of spaghetti sauce, and if creation was real then we could observe the sauce become a goat. Since the sauce did not change before his camera lens then God did not exist, creation did not happen. TA-DAH!!!!!!!

I was foolish enough to reply.

In addition to saying man cannot tell God what or when to do, the concept was so bad it had to be a joke.

It wasn't.

His flame back to me caused me to suggest to God (if it was His will) that He tear this clown out of a sound sleep with some genuine HOLY TERROR. I recalled some of the Psalms David wrote, but then back-tracked when I thought of Matthew chapter 13 and Mark chapter 4 and Luke chapter 8.
Jesus says He spoke in crowds in parables so that they would NOT be liable when they would stand in judgment. There are masses Jehovah deliberately leaves ignorant allowing them lenient sentences for eternity in Hell.

I have to be thankful for the Mercy of God (who does really exist and is listening/watching/knowing), that He chose not only to reveal truth to me but also granted me repentance. Jesus said in Matt if they were given truth He would have to heal them, in Mark, He would have to forgive their sin. Some will be very much in the know and very guilty for rejection. Others knew extremely little, yet believed enough (such as the thief on the cross). “Seek and you will find, ask and it will be given to you, knock and the door will open.”
