if God created everything immortal, how can you say He kills?
these things that He supposedly killed immediately existed in the afterlife.
(and if you say He doesn't exist...well, God is the most powerful *LITERAL EXISTENT* being in all of existence. meaning He *LITERALLY EXISTS*. whatever being is the most powerful in *LITERAL EXISTENCE* is GOD. meaning He DOES EXIST.)

I see that all the answerers are people who browse too much r/atheism...
Take an agnostic viewpoint on this. According to the Bible, God created everything immortal, which means eternal life. My understanding is that that does not apply to the lives you or I live now, but the notion of eternal afterlife. So, in a way, we aren't really immortal, but the Bible tells us that we ARE promised an eternity of happiness and joy in "heaven". Even if one was sent to hell, they would experience immortality (eternal afterlife), except basically they would be tortured.
This is what the Bible says. I do not claim anything to be absolutely true. I am strictly agnostic, and even dislike religion. However, I'm not against the idea of someone believing in a God, even though I prefer science over deity myself. But unlike these hardcore atheist twerps, I actually know something about Christianity and its ideals/beliefs.
As for killing, its a mixed issue. If we were created by a higher being, then "God" would have given us life, which means he gave us death too. In a way, that means he does kill. However, a world without death would present all kinds of overpopulation issues and the like. So it's for the greater good.
Also, Noah's ark. He even told Noah that he would send the flood that basically killed a ton of people and animals. He kills.

God neither created anything immortal nor He kills no one. We all have been created to live and eventually die. No one can live forever. That's in Genesis 3:22. And for killing, God is not like a man to kill. All the killing happens among ourselves and by ourselves. When it happens as a result of a natural disaster we just happened to be on the wrong place at the wrong time. Therefore we have only
ourselves to blame.

The spirit is immortal.
The flesh is temporary because if sin's judgment.
Physical death came by eating of the forbidden fruit of the Knowledge of Good and Evil.
But fleshy mortality came as judgment so that sin would not reign forever in the heart of man...
"...and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the Tree of Life, and eat, and live forever:" Adam and Eve were then cast out of the Garden. Genesis 3:22,23

except the actual undeniable actuality that the human beings God killed are nevertheless useless. If that is the excuse you'll use, why not argue for the murders? They did not something incorrect. they did not somewhat kill everyone considering the fact that each and every of the human beings they "killed" immediately existed interior the afterlife. truly, each and every of the fetus that became aborted also immediately existed interior the after existence. So what's the tremendous deal?

A SOUL CAN NEVER BE DESTROYED !!
and our souls are tiny bits of the SUPREME SOUL [GOD]
SOUL LEAVES A BODY AND ENTERS INTO NEW ONE
so the statement that "he kills" is totally absurd !!
