Quote[/b] (Wesley @ Dec. 28 2004,10:05)]That is a very good question actually, and I doubt that you will like or accept my answer cause you are not a Christian so you have know reason to believe me unless the Holy Spirit opens your eyes(spiritually speaking of course) to see it that way.(yep, it's official.... I'm Jesus freak.... oooooh I think I like that term. LOL).
Anyway, God does allow bad things to happen to us, but He doesn't make them happen. If the world we perfect, why would we need a God to save us? It states in the Bible(I'll have to look it up for you) that the world is Satan's and that God is allowing Satan to work in the world. God is PERFECT, He loves us unconditionally, but has allowed the enemy(Satan) to attack us. He didn't do all those things, Satan does them.(now I know you think I'm nuts) And actaully catstrophies like the tsunami are mentioned in the Bible, as warnings to the return to Him, and eventually as warnings as to the return of Jesus Christ( kinda random, but is Christ like His last name or sometin', just food for thought) I think I'm done. I know you'll have something to say about it to show me wrong, and I hope I can find it in scriptures to back me up. But heres the best part, Satan will eventually burn in hell for all eternity.
