Bible Question:
This book refers to ripping babies from the wombs of women and dashing their heads against the rocks. How do I explain this to an unbeliever, who uses the verses to "prove" her point that God is cruel and vile. Of course I do not believe it but I cannot explain to her that God was "warning" His people about their sin, and disobedience. Help me with some scriptural back up to gain understanding. Thanks, slide_m46@yahoo.com |
Bible Answer: God doesn't rip babies or bring evil upon people because there is no evil in Him. God is love. So how does this evil come upon people? God is always holding out His loving arms to people. If they either walk away from His arms or they never accept Him, what can God do? He has given man free choice. If people walk away from God's loving and protecting arms they walk into Satan's hands. Satan comes to kill steal and destroy. So who was ripping babies? God or Satan? |
