in the bible where does God say "Command Me"?

[Onceler]

I remember reading it but I cannot recall where it is at. A friend of mine and I got into an argument. I need to know where it is so I can prove that I am right.
Thanks

In the bible, where does God say anything at all?

To answer your question less philosophically: Isaiah 45:11

http://www.learnthebible.org/commanding-god.html

Isaiah 45:11
states, "Thus saith the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, Ask me of things to come concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands command ye me."

It's worth pointing out that the tone of that passage is clearly saracastic.

Isaiah 45:11.

It was not that He said "Command Me!"
My argument was that it is our own failings and fault that the world is such a s**t hole and is becoming worse.

Interesting. I've read a fair bit. Precisely how and why did I do as you say and how do you know?

You are an illiterate half wit if you don't think that familiarizing yourself with a document, under the auspices of which most of the western world was conquered and ruled for over a thousand years, is of value.

That's like not thinking that reading the constitution or the Principia is of value.


Some folks create the world, and other folks just live in it. -Friedrich Nietzsche

I'm an atheist and I agree with DixyCrat. Even for non-believers, there are many reasons to want to read the bible.

Also, you're also hardly making yourself look too reasonable in this thread.

 

[Angry Irishman]

Your book is just a stupid....as are you for trolling

Edit: not directed at the above; I think you know who. If you're an atheist, great, just don't judge other people in the process.

Religion always attracts these kinds of responses. It's like a crap magnet.

I've seen this before. The more one heaps scorn the smarter he thinks he looks. I never found wilful ignorance the mark of a superior mind.
