It is not the job of the Christian to judge, for crying out loud.

Christians are to judge justly (St. John 7.24), with a measure of judgement that they would apply to themselves (St. Matthew 7.1-2). A Christian man indwelled by the holy Ghost can judge all things (1 Corinthians 2.15).

IF one is a Christian, he might judge, as he will be held to the same standard he uses to judge. IF one is a Christian, then it is Christ he is wanting to become like. IF one is a Christian, he knows that Christ, who is God, sees all sin as sin. IF one is a Christian, he knows that he himself is not without sin, and best keep his thoughts and words on other things than judging others.

This disaster is a great opportunity for Christians to show the love of the LORD rather than shooting their “Christian” mouths off declaring a natural disaster as God’s judgment on any nation. Just name ONE nation that does not deserve the same “judgment” some see here for Haiti.

I read whole sentences, and whole paragraphs, and whole chapters, and the stuff that comes after a “therefore”, and whole books, and whole Testaments.

When a Christian speaks of a disaster to someone, or some human entity; nation, town, religion, whatever, as God’s judgment on that entity, I can almost see the LORD roll his eyes in disgust.

If you want to be a Christian, then read John 3:17, and then be like Christ.
