1 | why do the good hurt more than the bad? | Rom 3:10 | rizz | 222226 | ||
i know they say we really shouldnt question this but im jus curious? cuz last time i checked god said we may not understand everything . man said dont question so im goin to question. so, why do so many bad things happen to people who dont deserve it. i have seen tornadoes and hurricanes hit so hard and killed children and adults , even little helpless babies and sometimes i honestly wonder why. why didn this happen to someone who will never straighten out their life or someone who didnt care that they raped a child or took a young kids life or killed just any one.. there are people who have did this and to this day, dont give a crap. i dont get why god allow this to happen to such good defenceless people though i know he's a loving god? but why do his work and powers bring heart-aches and pain just as much as it brings happiness and love and joy? | ||||||
2 | why do the good hurt more than the bad? | Rom 3:10 | BradK | 222227 | ||
Hello rizz and welcome to the Forum. Time won't allow me to fully answer your questions. Volumes could (and have) been written on this. The Dollar-fifty term to describe this is called "Theodicy"- which attempts to explain the existence of evil. In short, we are fallen creatures as a result of sin. Rom 3:10-12 says "as it is written, "THERE IS NONE RIGHTEOUS, NOT EVEN ONE; Rom 3:11 THERE IS NONE WHO UNDERSTANDS, THERE IS NONE WHO SEEKS FOR GOD; Rom 3:12 ALL HAVE TURNED ASIDE, TOGETHER THEY HAVE BECOME USELESS; THERE IS NONE WHO DOES GOOD, THERE IS NOT EVEN ONE." (NASB) Also, consider Rom. 9:20-22- Rom 9:20 On the contrary, who are you, O man, who answers back to God? The thing molded will not say to the molder, "Why did you make me like this," will it? Rom 9:21 Or does not the potter have a right over the clay, to make from the same lump one vessel for honorable use and another for common use? Rom 9:22 What if God, although willing to demonstrate His wrath and to make His power known, endured with much patience vessels of wrath prepared for destruction? We all deserve hell and the fact that God shows His mercy to any, is in itself a huge Blessing! He is indeed gracious, loving and merciful and just! While evil does not come from God, He allows it to bring glory to Himself. Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |

Hello rizz, I'm sorry that you're more confused. Unfortunately there is no simple, easy answer to this question! I can assure you that God does not hate us, as John 3:16 tells, "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life." (NASB) Further, 1 John 4:9-10 says, " By this the love of God was manifested in us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world so that we might live through Him. In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins." Can I ask?: Are you a believer in the Lord Jesus Christ and have you read and/or studied any of the Bible? For a specific answer to your original question I would recommend this link: http://www.gotquestions.org/bad-things-good-people.html A focused study on God and His attributes would really benefit you. However, this depends on your ability and desire to read, pray and meditate upon God and His Word. Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |

Study the scriptures, God gives his children understanding 2 Tim. 2:15 study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth Isa,. 53:3 He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not. 4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. 5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. 6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all. 7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth. 1Pet. 4:1 Forasmuch then as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin; 1 Cor.1: 25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men. 26 For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called: 27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; Rom. 1:28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; 29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, 30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, 31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: 32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them. |
