Subject: God Punished New Orleans with Katrina |
Bible Note: Val, My questions were not meant to crucify you as you say. They were serious questions raised by your post. Please do not take them any other way. I’ve read many of your posts sister and you seem very well versed in Scripture and your dedication to the study of the Word is obvious, something you should be commended for. I’ll even admit, you are probably better read than I am, as I’m actively trying to learn more and more all the time. I was simply trying to drive home a point considering why disasters befall us and how important it is for us to look at them for what they are, and how it is supported with Scripture. I think the most important point to look at is that we know not when our so called number is up and we better be standing in God’s grace when that happens. For if we are not… You didn’t upset me this is just an issue I feel strongly about. Our sins have been paid for in full. Katrina, well that storm did nothing for me, directly, except to sadden me for those who suffered and lost and once again to bring to light just how thankful I’m God called me when He did. He’s perfect in everything He does, is He not? I’m not going to elaborate any further concerning this post as I think there are others who have stressed it should end for the reasons noted, as you have, and that is probably best. Please don’t think I’m out to get you Val. Far from it. You help to keep me thinking and digging into scripture and I thank you for that, I truly do. I hope that I at times do the same for you. That’s my aim after all and I know that is yours too. If I have poorly communicated my thoughts, it is me that should be apologizing to you. Stand in His grace, WOS |
