Voila~!
And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force.
- Matthew 11:12
I will take it by force.
In this entry, I'm going to ask you some questions.
Why is it that every single *!#$# time something bad in the world happens, people always go....
'Why would a fair, just, loving and Almighty God allow such a thing to happen?'
Shaking their heads.
Letting out self-righteous sighs.
And then saying, 'There can't be a God.'
Everytime something bad happens to people, like when people go through a bad breakup...
No one's fault.
But God's.
God's fault that you got a jerk of a boyfriend?
Gee.
Why does everyone point to our God? Our Jesus?
Why doesn't anyone blame Buddha or Allah or something?
(Disclaimer: Nothing against Buddha or Allah, just try to see my point.)
And you know the funniest thing is, these people don't even believe in God.
Let me translate to how I see it. "Oh, I don't believe in God. But I know He's responsible for all the horrible things that happen in my life." Is the same as saying, "Oh, I don't think dogs are real. But I'm pretty sure a dog peed on my carpet." Please tell me how that remotely makes any sense.
God's just something convenient for them to point at, to push the blame to when no one else is around to be the scapegoat.
He was already our scapegoat 2000 years ago.
Sigh.
Gets a little irritating sometimes, don't you think?
If we expect a fair God, the least we could do is be fair to Him.
