    Definitely. Just call me Job. It is ok to argue with God. He gave us good minds to use, and arguing with authority is not a sin. However, refusing to do what He says I think is sinful, and usually He won't let you sleep until you do what He says... :~)

    Of course. There are several stories in the Bible of great men of God arguing with him. David argued with him repeatedly in the Psalms. Job argued about his plight. The apostle Paul argued to have his "thorn" removed. Even Jesus argued to have "this cup" taken away. Arguing with God is a great way to work out the issues in your own mind, because it provides God an opportunity to respond to your complaints. It's fine to argue with God; just don't plan on winning many of the arguments.

    No! why? I respect God and I'm also a Christian. And I don't want to pray to someone I hate so why should we argue with God?

    Yes I do. The only reason God did the flood was because Noah didn't argue. His God said "I'm going to make a flood and wipe out the whole world, so go make a boat to save yourself." Noah replied: "OK"

    If you argue with god and he speaks to you, either somebody is playing a prank on you or you need some serious ******* help. I have other imaginary friends to argue with.

    I used to until I came to the painful realization that I was simply venting to the air. God never responded. so technically it wasn't really an arguement because it takes at least two to argue. so I guess my answer would be yes and no. I did, but He didn't.

    yes i think we all do some time because its hard to live the perfect life in this world and unfortunately some of the vices we have (nothing too strong) are hard to give up so when you know gods telling you . you shouldn't do that you argue with him..well i do anyway and anyone who says they don't is lying!

    Yes, not directly of coarse. Mainly it is "why" this or that. We all have those thoughts. We live in these flesh bodies and obviously tend to focus on them or worldly cares. We tend to think carnally rather than spiritually. Christ taught in Matthew about treasures, earthly versus heavenly treasures.

    Matt.6:19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:

    Matt.6:20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:

    So how do you lay up treasues in heaven? By studying His Word and producing fruit.

    Gal.5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,

    Gal.5:23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

    yes, I do. Pretty much everyone does. When he tells you to do something you don't want to do, and you give him all these excuses, and say you can't, you're arguing with him. Moses argued with god. Moses didn't want to go to Pharoah, but God didn't give up on Moses.
