Matthew 21:32 "For John came to you in the way of righteousness

You leave out one crucial verse. The next one after it.

Also, I 100% DISAGREE that Satan MAKES bad things happen. There's a thing called free will. WE MAKE THE BAD CHOICES.

Satan does not create a tsunami, in my opinion - it happens. I don't believe (help me Lord if I'm wrong) that EVERYTHING on this earth happens because God made that specific thing happen.

Exactly. People always ask when something bad happens, "Why did God let this happen" but he didn't let it happen. He gave us the free will and we made it happen.

Well I 100% disagree with what you're saying here.

Read this Why does God allow bad things to happen to good people? I think it does explain a lot.

NEW DISCUSSION:

The shooting yesterday at the Unitarian church was horrible. It appears that there were gay members at that church, and they clearly supported the gays.

Question: Could the gunman have been a form of God's wrath?

Ah no. The gunman was the gunman and he is the one solely responsible for this act. No need to try and pawn this off on God.

Exactly what point are you trying to make with all this? Every church I have been to is filled with sinners.

I agree. How is being gay different then looking at a guy' s watch next to you and being envious. Would he send in shooeters to strike you down?

well, one of the two involves getting cornholed. The other really doesn't.

Classic. We appreciate your clarification on the matter.

I don't think that's what happened Rev Phelps

Folks I asked for a DISCUSSION. I never said I thought it WAS Gods wrath!!!

Probably not.

I think to even bring the idea up, is what people find so silly and/or ridiculous.

 

[vols_are_champs]

That God sent in shooters to kill all the homos.

 

[emainvol]

If there is a God, and it was a form of God's wrath, thank you but I will find someone else to worship.

Then have a MOD delete it. Geez!

For the record, I do think God allowed it to happen. He could have caused the GUnman to die of a stroke, or a heartattack before he ever got in the church.

seems a bit hypocritical to send one of your people to purposefully break a sacred commandment

Ah, I guess God wasn't feeling very wrathful that day then. He could have also let the killer have been more successful and killed more, according to the way things work in your world.

:lolabove: I like that. But yeah that's not what happened.

 

[allvol123]

He works miracles by pushing "Ctl+Alt+Smite".

There is no point in trying to discuss anything with you all on this. Believe what you believe, and ill believe what I want. Guess that's why God makes us all different.

He wouldn't be God if he didn't.
