you dont understand...God stopped because we did not obey his word. we..as humans..screwed up everything and started the doubt and ?'s many many many years ago. God has allowed the doubts and distrust,he allowed the misunderstanding and the so called "loopholes" in the Bible that some people try to use to disprove that God is the creator. WE messed it all up..humans..cuz we are not perfect,God gave us a choice..we made the wrong choice so therefore we suffer for that.
its kind of like a mother baking a big batch of cookies and telling the child.."you can have 1 now..or if you wait and do as i say..then you can have alot more later". the kid eats 1 cookie now and sneaks a few more later,then wonders why he gets punished for not doing as he was told. kinda like that..
God created us in a perfect way..we thought we could make it better and do as we wanted..we were wrong so God has punished us.
there was an email sent to me about a talk show asking someone whats wrong with the world today,why did God let 9-11 happen..she replied somethin to this effect..
>>Anne Graham gave an extremely profound and insightful response. She said
"I believe God is deeply saddened by this, just as we are, but for years
we've been telling God to get out of our schools, to get out of our government
and to get out of our lives. And being the gentleman He is, I believe He has calmly backed out. How
can we expect God to give us His blessing and His protection if we demand He leave us alone?"
In light of recent events...terrorists attack, school shootings, etc. I think it started when Madeleine Murray O'Hare (she was murdered, her body found recently) complained she didn't want prayer in our schools, and we said OK.
Then someone said you better not read the Bible in school .... the Bible says thou shalt not kill, thou shalt not steal, and love your neighbor as yourself. And we said OK.
Then Dr. Benjamin Spock said we shouldn't spank our children when they misbehave because their little personalities would be warped and we might damage their self-esteem (Dr. Spock's son committed suicide). We said an expert should know what he's talking about. And we said OK. Now we're asking ourselves why our children have no conscience, why they
dont know right from wrong, and why it doesn't bother them to kill strangers, their classmates, and themselves.
Probably, if we think about it long and hard enough, we can figure it out.
I think it has a great deal to do with "WE REAP WHAT WE SOW."
Funny how simple it is for people to trash God and then wonder why the worlds going to hell. Funny how we believe what the newspapers say, but question what the Bible says.
