To: Salvation

If my house burns down and I am penniless and hungry, I can accept that as being part of God’s will for my life, and thank Him for helping me through it. I can try to glorify Him by the way I handle these sorrows and sufferings.

But if my son becomes a drug addict and stabs me to death, I can’t consider that either of those events are God’s will! If a madman butchers millions of people, that’s not God at work—God is not capable of evil. Some things that happen on this earth are not God’s will—they are the actions of Satan. We are told that Satan prowls the world causing pain and harm, and seeking the ruin of souls, and some bad things that happen are his doing.

If americans reelect Obama I do not considre it Gods will.. God has turned his back on america just as he did to the Israelites when they broke his covenant. America must re-earn Gods love.

In a nation that promotes the murder of 50 million babies in the womb making Hitler look like an amateur there can be no grace from God.
