Mike wrote: Bad stuff happens. Decay set in at the fall. Earthquakes happen because plates shift because the earth is decaying. God doesn't have to say, "Hmmm, I think I'll smack Haiti today." The continual calling of every natural disaster God's specific wrath is silly. When a tornado tears through some poor folks trailer park, is that God's judgment on them? Please. Yeah ? 'great comment Mike 'Job 9v55 It is God who removes the mountains, they know not how, When He overturns them in His anger who shakes the earth out of its place, And its pillars tremble; Psalm 18v7 Then the earth shook and trembled; the foundations also of the hills moved and were shaken, because he was wroth Isiah 30v30 The LORD will cause men to hear his majestic voice and will make them see his arm coming down with raging anger and consuming fire, with cloudburst, thunderstorm and hail Isiah 51v6 Lift up your eyes to the heavens, look at the earth beneath; the heavens will vanish like smoke, the earth will wear out like a garment and its inhabitants die like flies. But my salvation will last forever, my righteousness will never fail. etc etc etc ad infinitum in His Holy Word |

John UK wrote: But to claim an event is God's active will in operation, when it may just as well be God's passive will in operation, is purely speculative. That IS bad doctrine john but note that i havent accused you of anything in my post but i have questioned it with one of these symbols (?) which indicates a question. Your little god does not make sense to the intelligent atheist (for there are some) because it cannot adequately explain the events in Haiti. I hope you dont patronise them in the same way that you do me ? To whit suggesting that my outlook might be improved by a visit to Haiti - improved to what standard ? yours for instance ? You know nothing of my background and what has led me to my doctrinal position and likewise many non believers have thought carefully if mistakenly over their position. The question the lost ask in a situation like this (Haiti) is How can this be explained in terms of a loving God - give a shot lets see how you explain it and we will see how your theology copes with the needs of the lost |

Millions maybe billions died in the flood, God said 'i will use the earth to destroy them' good enough for you ? Are you embarrassed about God ? This is how God eventually deals with His enemies in the temporal realm. Hyperman churches ?? Ive never met a single one of these individuals - a whole church of them would be a wonder to behold ! I fear God and I thank Him that I do. I am a worm of the dust deserving of the wages of sin, touchy feely news reports from 'natural disasters' dont touch me. These people deserve it if i lived there as one of the elect i wouldnt be living in port au prince with my family thats for sure the elect have more God given sense. I wouldnt have taken my family to thailand before the tsunami even if it were free ! because these places are full of God mocking scoffing rebels witches sorcerers sex tourists and their enablers and sympathisers just like the UK which bodes ill for the future - prepare yourself ! PS I already dealt with your fault line question in an earlier post |

John UK wrote: It is because I don't understand his ways that I don't make speculative decisions that are not firmly biblically based. Thats why good doctrine is so important John, I stick to the fundementals and work it out from there. Im not speculating. When Jesus returs He is going to take vengeance upon them that do not believe, what you are seeing in Haiti is NOTHING compared to what is going to happen at the end of the age. 'is this not my treasure stored up in heaven' (deuteronomy) There is no unrighteousness with God what are you going to say when the judgement on Haiti is universal over the globe ? This is what is promised make no mistake, Be grateful that you believe and pray 'that you may be counted worthy to be spared the wrath to come' The last part of your post is somewhat rhetorical but you dont NEED to speculate you KNOW how Jesus dealt with the poor miserable sinners He excercised mercy upon them as He has done for you. There is no need to ask me its in His word 'I will have mercy upon those whom I will have mercy' |

John UK wrote: Judgment fell on the non-elect within (or slightly without) Jerusalem (they all died), and all the elect got out so that they could experience the judgment of God by being banished and exiled throughout the world until the Lord decided to have mercy upon them and bring them back again. its a type and a prefigurement john for our edification not for us to assess millenia later wether these people were better of or not for escaping the siege, the fact is they did and they would have been very grateful to have escaped it, you dont know wether they lived out their remaining days in israel or abroad or what their temporal condition was - who cares ? it doesent matter, its irrelevent. what matter s is that you understand that they believed Jesus warnings about Jersusalem and when Jerusalem was compassed about 35 years later they fled and were spared, the bible teaches by careful and repeated example not to be ignored, types and shadows, prefigurements all through the word. did you check mikes post on rev 20:48 ? ive always had this view and i dont even know what dispensationalism is its just obviously derived (for me )from the Bible |

John UK wrote: Oh, here is a good thing to read, concerning the siege of Jerusalem: the historian Josephus. He relates how that the tribulation in Jerusalem was immense, with terrible starvation, such that Jewish parents would eat their own babies. Those trying to escape would swallow their gold, only to be ripped up by the soldiers and have their treasure extracted from their stomachs. So I hardly think they were spared suffering, bro. Rather, they knew some awful and awesome suffering. i daresay your snug annexe has been most welcome in this arctic weather john ! I think you might take another look at my post i said the elect jews left jerusalem and escaped the siege and civil strife, the non elect of course stayed and received the punishment for the judicial murder of the creator yes i do have the complete works of josephus which i hope to read entirely before i die as im not sure the great man will be in heavan. The siege of jerusalem is one of the most significant events in the history of the world and a great opening to discussing the gospel with anyone who is interested in history and archaeology as it is very little known about, this is what i am talking about with biblical precedent, the removal of the elect prior |
