Bible Answer: Greetings SJB! My mom just asked me about this very issue this morning! :-) My answer would be this: Sin is our fault! We disobeyed God and as a consequence brought upon ourselves sin, sickness, death, war, poverty, hunger, pain, ect.... None of these were part of God's perfect plan for us. The Good News is that God has done something about our mess. He sent His Only Son to die for our sins that we might be forgiven and reconciled to Him. When we accept His gift of salvation, God remakes us and gives us an eteranl inheritance where there will be no more pain, sorrow, or death. In the meantime though, we do stupid things to ourselves and each other. The bombers didn't bomb the WTC because God made them do it. They bombed it because their fallen human natures are capable of great evil. Evil and pain are realities with which we all have to live. I know. I lost a 9 month old son due to a combination of a lazy doctor and a congential heart defect. I know what it is too hurt and be angry. But, when I look back at my life, even at the bad times, I see that God has brought me through it all - stronger and more faithful. God does not dictate or script our actions or our lives. But, the comfort we can take is this: He is working. He is saving those who respond. He is answering prayers. He has given us excedingly great promises. And, He is coming back to claim us as His own. Trust Him my friend! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
