"Why Does God Allow Evil Happen?!" The Priceless Question With Little or No Answer. The subject of "why God allows evil," still is the centre of an endless and ever widening speculation of whether or not if He really does existence; and quite frankly, I don't blame folks if they think He doesn't. I for one most times, ask the same nature of question. I once was angered to ask, "Why did you allow my mum to die?!" You see, we need to REALLY TRY to understand that the earth is made for Mankind, but however, we later became "co-habitators and earth-lords" with other spirits, which to be more specific, CELESTIAL ENTITIES. Also worth of note is the fact that in the original master plan of God (Genesis 1:26 - 28), Mankind was designed to control ALL other spirits: living things (other than ourselves), non living things and celestial entities (I know this part might seem too ridiculous to believe). The original master plan was thwarted with the help of Mankind itself, and I'm deeply convinced that we are all too familiar with the story of Adam and Eve in Genesis 3. And ever since after that act in the Garden, mankind became the perpetual tool of both the celestial entities that corrupted them and God. God is not the REAL enemy here, believe me when I tell you this. When my mum died on the 17th of October, 2013, I HATED GOD!!! I was angered by her death. I mean, why shouldn't I? There I was on both knees by her beside, crying and praying for hours until my throat was dried up and my knees bruised! Let me spare the long story. God is not our enemy! The earth is made for us, but however, it is now a contestable territory between us and the real enemies (those ageless entities from above who fought against God, Rev 5) What happened in Ozubulu regardless of the many stories flying around as regard its true cause, is a clear indication of a continuation of that ageless battle between God and his rebellious sons. What better way to get back at one's beloved father, if not to infiltrate and destroy all that he's worked so hard to build?! We lost control over the earth the day Adam and Eve fell, but however, control came back to us after the Lord Jesus was ascended into Heaven! The question is, 1. "How many of us know this?!" 2. "How many of us would be willing to accept the original responsibilities intended by the Father?! For a moment dear beloved, just a puny moment imagine what the world would have been if EVERY SINGLE HUMAN BEING accepted the life ("Zoe" Greek for the "God kind of life) Christ offered 2017 years ago?! Just imagine! My dear friend, I say this to you with all conviction that we were originally made to rule as Kings and Queens here!!!! The reason why this glorious dream of God seems impossible is because of the questions I asked in the above paragraph. The "lusts of life" are the enemies very best tools against us. We are nothing but like pawns in their hands, to do with as pleased. There is a way out for us all, but not all of us will choose it. And because we all will not choose it, the tragedy of ozubulu, along with countless similar others will never cease until Jesus comes. The only way out would be to accept the Lord Jesus. I don't mean the endless striving to be good copycats; no, far from it. Neither do I mean the routinized personal efforts to keep to the doctrines of our local churches in order to be labelled a "righteous and holy" individual by our various local shepherds; no! I mean to have the Light that surpasses all other lights in you, and to walk in the consciousness of it. To know that no matter what comes your way, be it adversity or travails, the absolute conviction that the greater One who is in you and has enveloped and made your puny spirit, and has made it a part of its largest self will see you victorious! This is what it truly means to accept Christ - to have the God life in you. |

I've always said The only way the Bible makes sense is if we conclude that that bible god is a raving lunatic whose greatest thrill comes from human suffering. Its only when christians try to claim that "god is good" or "god loves us" that the story gets ridiculous. This is supposedly a being that KNOWS EVERYTHING and has INFINITE POWER. Yet he stood by as those worshippers died from bullet wounds and does NOTHING to stop it. Does he strike the attackers dead on the spot? No. Does he send a cop? No. Does he do ANYTHING to prevent it? No. Even though he could help these people with less than the blink of his almighty eye. Why? He can't say he didn't know. And he can't say he couldn't do anything about it, right? So he must ALLOW IT because HE LIKED IT! The same with starving children and disease. Its entertainment for him. And even though he could change it all, with less effort than we could change the channel on our TV, he refuses to reach for the remote. Instead he'll just reach for a shotgun and blow a hole through the screen. YEE HAW! This is one sick god we've got here. He loves human suffering so very much that he just couldn't get enough of it in this world. So he had to create a place of ETERNAL TORTURE so he could REALLY get off! And does he send people there who have done horrible things they need to be punished for? No, he forgives all of that. He only sends people who don't believe a story that says that the creator of all things is such a horrible monster that he actually created a place of ETERNAL TORTURE. If you think god is better than that you go to Hell. Now reading the Bible what does it say Satan's big crime was? His ego. He thought he could do a better job than god. But looking at the world around us how wrong could he have been? Anybody could do a better job than this raving lunatic of a god. The christian god is just about what you could expect if the Joker from Batman had infinite power. |

Who will be the universal sovereignbetween God and Satan if God did not allow evil to happen? Will Adam see his creator as God any longer after he ate the fruit and did not die as satan duly said? Will the angels watching the events on earth still stick to their creator, if Adam and eve that ate the fruit did not die as satan said? If God decides to look the other way after Adam and Eve had sinned against Him and they did not die, who will be the liar between God and Satan? Dont forget (its impossible for God to lie). If God did not allow evil to happen will the allegations satan posed against Job, will it have been settled? Can you imagine God also has impossibilities, but the best things about God's impossibilities is that, that is where the surest of guarantees about his promises is embedded. |

achorladey:please, what are you getting at? |
| Re: "Why Does God Allow Evil Happen?!" by achorladey: 11:31am On Aug 07, 2017 |
hopefulLandlord:My sense of direction is embedded in finding answers to those questions highlighted in my previous post. God allow evil, there must be a reason. A father punish his son that go against the his instructions, the punishment will result in some degree of evil to that (his) son in particular. The question is, why did the father permit the evil in the presence of every other member of his family knowing fully well there are sad consequences for that son. |
