1 | heaven is perfect but we live on earth | Mark 10:21 | DocTrinsograce | 160686 | ||
Dear Pako, Are you one of those people that think that God only brings health and Satan only brings sickness? This is rooted in the heresy of dualism. Here are some passages with which you are not dealing: God tears, heals, smites, binds up (Hosea 6:1); devours like a lion (Hosea 13:8); wounds, afflicts, strikes, bruises, smites, makes sore, heals, kills, makes alive (Deut 32:39; 1 Sam 2:6; Jer 31:28; Job 5:18; Isa 53:10); forms the light, creates and causes darkness (Isa 45:7; Jer 13:16; Ex 10:21; 14:10); makes peace, makes the dumb, deaf, seeing, blind (Exodus 4:11); sends sore judgments upon Jerusalem -- the sword, and the famine, and the noisome beast, and the pestilence, to cut off from it man and beast -- (Ezek 14:21); sends an evil spirit (Judges 9:23, 1 Sam 16:14; 18:10; 19:9-10); sends evil angels (Psalms 78:49), shoots arrows and darts, breaks bones (Lam 3:12-13; Num 24:8-9; Deut 32:22); heaps mischief upon people (Deut 32:23); breaks in pieces horses, nations, chariots, rider, men, women, the young, the old, the young man, the maiden, shepherds, flocks, husbandman/yoke of oxen, captains/rulers (Jer 51:20-23); turns men to destruction (Psalms 90:3); is as a moth and rottenness (Hos 5:12); feeds and makes drunk with worm wood, gives the water of gall to drink (Lam 3:15; Jer 9:15); creates and brings evil/calamities (Isa 45:7, Jer 18:8, Job 2:10, Amos 3:6); creates the day of prosperity and the day of calamity (Ecc 7:14); etc. etc. Let me provide you with some the specific texts: The LORD killeth, and maketh alive: he bringeth down to the grave, and bringeth up. (1 Samuel 2:6) And unto this people thou shalt say, Thus saith the LORD; Behold, I set before you the way of life, and the way of death. (Jeremiah 21:8) And immediately the angel of the Lord smote him, because he gave not God the glory: and he was eaten of worms, and gave up the ghost. (Acts 12:23) There are so many verses that completely contradict your one sided view of God! Who has taught you these things, Pako? If you have to pick and choose between Scriptures, you are in possession of false doctrine. You certainly know very little of the Lord God who revealed Himself in His Word. In Him, Doc |

2 | heaven is perfect but we live on earth | Mark 10:21 | ItsMe | 160687 | ||
I agree Doc. I think many of the verses you quoted show us that God is always in control and that anything that hits us - good or bad - comes as He allows. I have a friend suffering from cancer who said just this week, that to have pain and be able to witness for Him was a great joy and He gave her strength. Awesome! | ||||||
