He filled my darkness with his day and he can do the same for you. That’s what you need to concentrate on, Erin—walking with God. You are so pessimistic that you fail to see the great things about life. God is unfair … Slowly, God blessed him again. The first man and woman trusted themselves instead of God, so God drove them from his protecting presence. So what can we learn about God from this passage? In this video we will address the charge that God is unfair because he has restricted his work for good to believers. What did I do to deserve this. Begin to attend a church where you can experience corporate Christian worship of God and where the Bible is faithfully preached. You have fallen into a fad. I cannot bring myself to pray to God for some sort of help in my life, for the question immediately arises within me: "Why should God listen to you, when He has left so many millions to suffer unimaginably? Even though He might not be able to give you the full answer yet, He can help you find comfort and gradual understanding. To learn about Him. (c.) God’s purpose is not restricted to this life but spills over beyond the grave into eternal life. Recently another friend of mine, Joyson Abraham, raised the similar complaint that despite he follow all “God’s rule”, the life was unfair. Once we understand God’s providential direction of a world of free creatures toward His previsioned ends, then we can more easily trust Him when we observe horrendous, undeserved suffering, knowing that God has morally sufficient reasons for allowing such suffering to occur. I think that you should try to just sit down, eitehr inside or outisde in a quiet calm peaceful place and sit, breath deeply and calmly and try and transcend beyond you earthly mind. So some guy who smokes two packs a day, drives when drunk, eats junk food and never exercises could get the standard rate. By killing yoruself, you would be lsoing against teh cruel game that is called life! Rule #1: Life is a competition I know a young woman who talked like you six years ago. (b.) It is spiralling in a black abyss. It may well be the case that suffering is part of the means God uses to draw people freely into His Kingdom. Maybe He wants you to work somehow with so-called “average-looking people,” helping them develop on the inside where God really looks. I honestly don't know what else to say, but he is the one sure thing in my life, that never changes or leaves me. I wrote in my diary today to help me cope with my pain, but I got blood on it from cutting myself and I've been sitting in a corner crying until now. God sees our sincere efforts, and God blesses us, because God knows that we love Him and follow His Commandments to love. How could God be so unfair? Why then is there so much injustice and unfairness in our world today? You live in a mortal world; therefore, you are subject to mortal ails. Do I have to be Catholic to get last rites? He was the first cause of inequity early in man’s existence. Christianity entails doctrines that increase the probability of the co-existence of God and suffering, viz.. They actually make sense. God bless you and God loves you,remember that. To get to know who He is and what makes Him tick. It's in the middle of the Bible, just before the Psalms. We’re not in a good position to say that it’s improbable that God lacks good reasons for permitting the suffering in the world. He doesn't,He really doesn't owe a single one of us anything. A sovereign God Himself determines how best to apportion His gifts, with the purpose of bringing as many people as possible freely into a saving relationship with Himself. than the ‘merely intellectual’ problem of evil.” Still, it seems to me that some of the points that I have made with respect to the probabilistic version of the problem of evil are relevant to your question. Trust in God in the midst of horrendous suffering is a function of our understanding of divine providence. Relative to the full scope of the evidence, God’s existence is probable. I cried, “UNFAIR!” We all want to be treated fairly. I give empirical support for this claim from around the globe. Is that Wiccan or Pagan? So if we were to be completely honest, we wouldn’t want God to be fair. Thank you for your heartfelt letter, Alexander! But I believe to be in the position of a hardened atheist, a person who is closed to God, though I wish not to be. I ask. So please bear with me as I review those points[1]: 1. A weak doctrine of providence will make it hard to trust Him; whereas a strong doctrine is conducive to trust in God. How clever you are. Instead, we ought to respond to God the way Job did: “I have uttered what I did not understand, things too wonderful for me which I did not know… I despise myself and repent in dust and ashes” (Job 42:3-6). Most of us figure that if we do our best, God … You are Suicidal, and that's not good in God's eyes! Pray that God would open your heart to Him. Jesus is the light, he is calling for you to come home. The Bible says that “God is not willing that any should perish but that all should reach repentance” (II Peter 3.9). Mankind is in a state of rebellion against God and His purpose. “World is unfair to me” is a popular complaint. It will do you a world of GOOD . Because he (the almighty) wants to see how strong your faith and love towards him is. Now consider your confession that “I cannot feel like I can trust a Deity (though my heart badly wishes to) who seems to be ready to let his creatures suffer enormously.” What I say about point (1) above is relevant to this feeling: Every event that occurs sends a ripple effect through history, such that God’s reason for permitting it might not emerge until centuries later and perhaps in another country. 2. Because Life Is Unfair.. haven't you listened the Malcolm in The Middle Song???? First and foremost, I thank you for all of the work you have done throughout the world, for both Christians in showing them that their faith ought not be shameful, and for atheists like myself in showing us that our intellectual ground is not so secure as we'd like to think. God’s rules dictate that everyone should have an opportunity to receive His gift of grace through faith in Jesus Christ—even those who are the least deserving of His grace. Gods don't require anything from their followers. Love God, truly, above all else including yourself and family and friends and plans and anything else. Once Job remembered God's proper place in his life, things looked a whole lot less black. Stop cutting your self,suck it all up,forget what other ppl will say about you and move on with your problems. lovelygurl: God doesn’t tell Job, and he doesn’t tell us why we suffer. My friend, Patricia, was wondering just that. Is God unfair?’ These are not really answers or questions but a … Allah isn't unfair to anyone. But Job praised God and worshiped Him long before any of the blessings ever came back. WEAK EFFORT? Moreover, what I said in relation to (3c) and (3d) above is relevant. Because God’s ultimate goal for humanity is the knowledge of Himself--which alone can bring eternal happiness to people--, history cannot be seen in its true perspective apart from the Kingdom of God. Many believe God is unfair for allowing Satan to live after he rebelled, but God also gave angels free will, and Satan, a fallen angel, used his gift to disobey. He needs to come first. The real rules are there. 10196|10182|10171|10022|10012|10002|9997|9993|9986|9972|9966|9965|9953|9950|9924|9902|9897|9904|9886|9871|9866|9853|9848|9844|9840|9830|9825|9823|9809|9802|9764|9730|9729|9703|9702|9694|9590|9589|9588|9580|9578|9569|9546|9545|9544|9434|9377|9360|9359|9358|9356|9354|9340|9334|9314|9311|9229|9228|9223|9219|9188|9184|9179|9175|9171|9169|9168|9146|9141|9130|9122|9121|9120|9112|9111|9110|9102|9101|9096|9062|9028|9027|9026|9025|9024|9015|9012|8969|8968|8967|8966|8906|8901|8900|8899|8858|8857|8854|8853|8829|8828|8812|8813|8809|8789|8788|8722|8721|8720|8704|8703|8733|8701|8700|8685|8518|8506|8505|8504|8503|8484|8483|8482|8467|8466|8448|8447|8434|8433|8429|8390|8389|8214|8213|8373|8087|8086|8077|8071|8070|8058|8024|8080|8076|8073|8060|8022|8006|7891|7885|7884|7883|7851|7829|7822|10208|10207|7813|10201|7811|10198|10197|7807|7806|7795|7794|7746|7740|7729|7745|7728|7725|7724|7721|7703|7701|7697|7685|7682|7667|7661|7649|7647|7646|7645|7228|7227|7226|7225|7224|7223|7222|7221|7220|7218|7217|7216|7215|2656|2657|2153|2154|2155|2156|2157|2158|301|300|150|8002|2304|151|152|153|154|156|157|158|302|303|304|305|306|307|308|309|310|2161|2162|2163|2164|2165|2166|2167|2168|2169|2170|2171|2172|2173|2174|2175|2176|2177|2178|2179|2180|2181|2182|2183|2184|2185|2186|2187|2188|2189|2190|2191|2192|2193|2194|2195|2196|2197|2198|2199|2200|2201|2202|2203|2204|2205|2206|2207|2208|2209|2210|2211|2212|2213|2214|2215|2216|2217|2218|2219|2220|2221|2222|2223|2224|2225|2226|2227|2228|2229|2230|2231|2232|2233|2234|2235|2236|2237|2238|2239|2240|2241|2242|2243|2244|2245|2246|2247|2248|2249|2250|2251|2252|2253|2254|2255|2256|2257|2258|2259|2260|2261|2262|2263|2264|2265|2266|2267|2268|2269|2270|2271|2272|2273|2274|2275|2276|2277|2278|2279|2280|2281|2282|2283|2285|2284|2286|2287|2288|2289|2290|2291|2292|2293|2294|2295|2296|2297|2298|2299|2300|2301|2302|2303|2305|2306|2307|2308|2309|2310|2311|2312|2313|2314|2315|2316|2317|2318|2319|2320|2321|2322|2323|2324|2325|2326|2327|2328|2329|2330|2331|8003|2333|2334|2335|2336|2337|2338|2339|2340|2341|2342|2343|2344|2345|2346|2347|2348|2349|2350|2351|2352|2353|2354|2355|2356|2357|2358|2359|2360|2361|2362|2363|2364|2365|2366|2367|2368|2369|2370|2371|2372|2373|2374|2375|2376|2377|2378|2379|2380|2381|2382|2383|2384|2385|2386|2387|2388|2389|2390|2391|2392|2393|2394|2395|2396|2397|2398|2399|2400|2402|2403|2404|2405|2406|2407|2408|2409|2410|8004|2412|2413|2414|2415|2416|2417|2418|2420|2421|2422|2423|2424|2425|2426|2427|2428|2429|2430|2431|2432|2433|2434|2435|2436|2437|2438|2439|2440|2441|2442|2443|2444|2445|2446|2447|2448|2449|2450|2451|2452|2453|2454|2455|2456|2457|2458|2459|2460|2461|2462|2463|2464|2465|2466|2467|2468|2469|2470|2471|2472|2473|2474|2475|2476|2477|2478|2479|2480|2481|2411|2482|2483|2484|2485|2486|2487|2488|2489|2490|2491|2492|2493|2494|2495|2496|2497|2498|2499|2500|2501|2502|2503|2504|2505|2506|2508|2509|2510|2511|2512|2513|2514|2515|2516|2517|2519|2520|2521|2522|2507|2523|2524|2525|2526|2527|2528|2529|2530|2531|2532|2533|2534|2535|2536|2537|2538|2539|2540|2541|2542|2543|2544|2545|2419|2546|2547|2548|2549|2550|2551|2552|2553|2554|2555|2556|2557|2558|2559|2560|2561|2562|2563|2564|2565|2566|2567|2568|2569|2570|2571|2572|2573|2574|2575|2576|2577|2578|2579|2580|2581|2582|2583|2584|2585|2586|2587|2588|2589|2590|2591|2592|2593|2594|2595|2596|2597|2598|2599|2600|2601|2602|2603|2604|2605|2606|2607|2608|2609|2610|2611|2612|2613|2614|2615|2616|2617|2618|2619|2620|2621|2622|2623|2624|2625|2626|2627|2628|2629|2630|2631|2632|2332|2633|2634|2635|2636|2637|2638|2639|2640|2641|2642|2643|2644|2645|2646|2647|2648|2649|2401|2650|2651|2652|2653|2654|2655|.
