2 | Does God send disasters as punishment? | Gen 18:20 | jlpangilinan | 83510 | ||
Yes! Ge 18:20 And the LORD said, Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is very grievous; Ge 18:26 And the LORD said, If I find in Sodom fifty righteous within the city, then I will spare all the place for their sakes. Herode was a very example of this. Ac 12:23 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. |

Dear jlpangilian, In answering this question, we must look to the Word of God as our final authority. In doing so, I must answer a resounding “No” based upon the following New Testament support. Christ states in John 5:22 (NASB95); 22 “For not even the Father judges anyone, but He has given all judgment to the Son, We have two well-known verses that deal with future judgment: Romans 14:10 (NASB95) 10 But you, why do you judge your brother? Or you again, why do you regard your brother with contempt? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of God. 2 Corinthians 5:10 (NASB95) 10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may be recompensed for his deeds in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad. Both verses are in the future tense and are in reference to the Bema seat judgment. As Dr. Jerry Benjamin writes in his booklet, What is NOT the Judgment of God, “Although God will reprove, rebuke, and chasten man, the wrath or judgement of God will not take place until the Second Coming of Christ”. [Emphasis mine] Still further is the Great White Throne Judgment in Revelation 20, a future event without doubt. (cf vs. 11-15) Speaking The Truth In Love, BradK |
