WHY TERRIBLE THINGS HAPPEN


WHY TERRIBLE THINGS ARE HAPPENING

People will ask, if there is a God, why would He allow these terrible things to happen? The answer is God gave us the gift of free will. So why is the happening?  We need to look at our government and how they have forced God out of every aspect of life in America. God is no longer welcomed in government, public schools, in public parks, and if you believe in God, they will try and force you to bow to their anti-God will or punish you with jail, fines, or even put you out of business. And that is why God’s blessings are leaving this country and these are only a few of the examples why.

Abortion: God told us that by taking an innocent life you will be cursed.

Keep yourself far from a false matter; do not kill the
innocent and righteous. For I will not justify the wicked.

EXODUS 23:7
 
25 ‘Cursed is the one who takes a bribe to slay an
innocent person.’ “And all the people shall say, ‘Amen!’

DEUTERONOMY 27:25

We have raised generations who believe killing their unborn child is acceptable if that child would interfere with their life style. And through abortion we in this world have killed or murdered 54 million children.

13 “You shall not murder.

   EXODUS 20:13   

So now we have generations who have no respect for human life. They cared more over a lion being shot, than Planned Parenthood selling aborted baby parts. God knows the mind and hearts of mankind. Children are a heritage and reward from God for our future and now we wonder why things are becoming so terrible since we have allowed 54 million children to be aborted in this world.

Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord,
The fruit of the womb is a reward.

PSALM 127:3

God also made it quite clear in His word on where He stands on homosexuality. He made Sodom and Gomorrah an example for generations to come of His judgments. God goes as far as calling it an abomination.

22 You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. It is an abomination.

LEVITICUS 18:22

and turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes,
condemned them to destruction, making them an example
to those who afterward would live ungodly;

2 PETER 2:6

as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them in a similar
manner to these, having given themselves over to sexual immorality
and gone after strange flesh, are set forth as an example,
suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.

JUDE 7

Because they rejected God and His word, He will allow them to go blindly down their destructive path.

40 “He has blinded their eyes and hardened their hearts,
Lest they should see with their eyes,
Lest they should understand with their hearts and turn,
So that I should heal them.”

JOHN 12:40    

26 For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women
exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. 27 Likewise also the men,
leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another,
men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves
the penalty of their error which was due. 28 And even as they did not like to
retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind,
to do those things which are not fitting;

ROMANS 1:26-28

Once again our government took a stand against God and His people. Our government is promoting homosexuality and transgender life styles starting with kindergarten. The government knows if you want to control the minds of the people you must first train the children to your way of thinking. This they have done through our schools and universities. God warned us to train our children, but too many have handed training of their children over to someone else.

Train up a child in the way he should go,
And when he is old he will not depart from it.

PROVERBS 22:6

Without God’s blessings we will see stronger storms, our economy failing, or He will even allow our enemy to come in to destroy a sinful nation. God does this as a warning, but if our nation will repent of our sins, He also said He will heal our nation.

if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves,
and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways,
then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.
 
2 CHRONICLES 7:14

You will be punished by the Lord of hosts
With thunder and earthquake and great noise,
With storm and tempest
And the flame of devouring fire.

ISAIAH 29:6

19 Behold, a whirlwind of the Lord has gone forth in fury—
A violent whirlwind!
It will fall violently on the head of the wicked.

JEREMIAH 23:19

The liberal democrats and some republicans are doing their best to divide our country, by race, economics, and gender. The liberal democrats would rather destroy this country if they can not bring in their Godless nation. They want to control Americans body, soul, and mind.

17 But He, knowing their thoughts, said to them:
“Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation,
and a house divided against a house falls.

LUKE 11:17   

We can see that many people see the government as their savior, with all the so called free stuff the government hands out. Free rent, free food, free medical and free phones. The problem here is many that are working can not afford the luxuries the government hands out to those who won’t work. God said if you will not work, neither will you eat. God requires you work and earn and eat your own bread, not to take from some one else’s labor. God requires man to work, He tells us six day you shall labor and work.

Six days you shall labor and do all your work,

EXODUS 20:9   

10 For even when we were with you, we commanded you this:
If anyone will not work, neither shall he eat. 11 For we hear that there
are some who walk among you in a disorderly manner,
not working at all, but are busybodies.

2 THESSALONIANS 3:10-11    

We can see their goal is to cut God out of America and to silence all Christians. They want you to depend on them for all your needs, not God. Like Canada, they want God’s word labeled as hate speech and anyone quoting God’s word charged with a hate crime.

In Canada 83 of Ontario’s 107 MPPs passed Bill 89 unanimously, it stops Christians from adopting or fostering children because of their beliefs on marriage. Now if you mention the name of Jesus other than cursing, they look at you with hatred in their hearts. We can no longer keep silent.

22 And you will be hated by all for My name’s sake.
But he who endures to the end will be saved.

MATTHEW 10:22   

18 “If the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you.
19 If you were of the world, the world would love its own. Yet because you are not
of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.

JOHN 15:18-19

God warned us that in the last days all this would happen. That all God calls good they will call evil, and all that God calls evil, they now call good.

20 Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil;
Who put darkness for light, and light for darkness;
Who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

ISAIAH 5:20   

Perilous Times and Perilous Men
But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come:
For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud,
blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving,
unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good,
traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,
having a form of godliness but denying its power.
And from such people turn away!

2 TIMOTHY 3:1-5

As Christians we must stand on God’s word and His commandments first and foremost. We follow man’s law as long as they don’t go against God’s. We are joined to God through Jesus Christ, who has given us God’s Holy Spirit as our guarantee we are His. He lives in us and nothing can separate us from Him.

27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.
28 And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish;
neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand. 29 My Father,
who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to
snatch them out of My Father’s hand. 30 I and My Father are one.”

JOHN 10:27-30   

21 Now He who establishes us with you in Christ
and has anointed us is God, 22 who also has sealed us
and given us the Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee.

2 CORINTHIANS 1:21-22   

Our mandate from God is to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ. You can believe it or not, the choice is yours. But know this; no one including the government will keep us silent.

And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world
as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.
 
MATTHEW 24:14

15 And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel
to every creature. 16 He who believes and is baptized will be saved;
but he who does not believe will be condemned.

MARK 16:15-16   

Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name
under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.”
 
ACTS 4:12

We must fight the good fight and finish the race by keeping the faith and confessing Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.

12 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life,
to which you were also called and have confessed
the good confession in the presence of many witnesses.

1 TIMOTHY 6:12 

I have fought the good fight,
I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.

2 TIMOTHY 4:7 

Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life.
No one comes to the Father except through Me.

JOHN 14:6

We (Christians) were not put here to judge the world. Jesus Christ will do that. We are to show the world the love of Christ, and that through Him one comes to repentance and receives the forgiveness of sin.

The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness,
but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish
but that all should come to repentance.

2 PETER 3:9  

[ Preach the Word ] I charge you therefore before God
and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge the living and the dead
at His appearing and His kingdom:
 
2 TIMOTHY 4:1

If we are truly living in the last days, we should expect things to get even more terrifying. Jesus warned us that these are all signs of the beginning of sorrows and His soon appearing to rapture His church of believers.
 
8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
 
MATTHEW 24:8

28 Now when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up
your heads, because your redemption draws near.”

LUKE 21:28    

13 looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing
of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ,

TITUS 2:13
