To all the believers and to all those lost. [Spirituality & Religion]

@Miram You can't blame God for that. We're experiencing what happens when sin is in this world. It will be that way until He remedies that, which won't be long. He's showing the world what sin looks like and why we need Him.

@LadyGrace There is no justice in an entity that punishes the innocent for someone else's sins. And there is no rational way to justify it except that any possible god is NOT interfering in this world. This conclusion is further confirmed by lack of physical evidence of such interference.

Jesus came to save. God is fair. Sin is not. Mankind made the decision to sin. God gave him a choice, and we see the result. God didn't cause man to sin. He didn't twist his arm. We should be grateful Jesus provided us a way to still go to heaven when we die. Or would we like the alternative? If it weren't for Jesus, our sins would forever separate us from a Holy God that cannot have sin in heaven, or it wouldn't be heaven. People usually can't accept this fact, because they do not want to take responsibility for their actions. They want to put God in a bottle or position of their choosing, but regardless of their efforts OR disbelief, that won't alter the carrying out of His [i]divine[/i] plan to save mankind. Without it, we'd never see our deceased loved ones or enjoy love, peace, and joy for eternity. One can either believe and receive, or doubt and do without. That's everyone's individual choice, not God's. We are not smarter nor wiser than Almighty God. Just when we think we are, we gravely err.

@LadyGrace That child and many others aren't responsible for the suffering they are facing. It's amoral and disgusting to argue otherwise. The rest of your reply is nonsense.

@Miram
Is it fair for the innocent to suffer? No, it’s not fair. The point is that SIN is not fair. GOD is fair, but sin is not fair. That is the NATURE of sin. When Adam sinned, he gave himself and the human race into the hands of a destroyer, Satan. Destruction is a consequence of man’s choice, not God's. God does not want it to happen. He did not want Adam and Eve to sin. But he allowed it, because that was the only way human beings could have the gift of freedom of choice. Of knowing right from wrong. If you love someone, the best way to see if they really love you, is to give them the choice of freedom. If they come to you freely, because of the love in their heart for you, you'll know they really love you, and didn't come to you because they were forced. God didn't want robots, with no feelings.

Satan is responsible, not God. These are all the things that suffer when you have sin in this world. God's Word confirms this. None of this happened, prior to sin entering this world. Not even death. God is love personified. He didn't, and wouldn't create sin, nor caused it.

Think God's responsible for all this chaos? Explain 1 Peter 5:8 - "Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour." Jesus has no sin in Him, so how could He cause sin? He is perfect. He cannot err.

@Miram 1 Corinthians 13:12 KJV - "For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known."

More nonsense that has no evidence.

And again none of that justifies the suffering of that child. In Abrahamic mythology God created Satan and thatrenders him the creator of sin. The child has no role nor responsibility in any of the dynamic of sin creation nor the consequences. He is more innocent than your definition of god.

It is foolishness that makes people of belief hold on to amoral attempts, substitutes of truth, instead of just admitting they don't know. Faith and knowledge are two different things.

If there is a god, it's beyond your understanding. Ànd there is no objective evidence confirming your god and disqualifying others'.

You are wasting your time and mine.

@Miram Whatever you say. 😊
