"I do believe that NO is a good example of why God may be somewhat displeased with America as a society."

You did say the above.

"By for the grace of God, it may have been my city or home."

Perhaps that should be more in the forefront of your mind.
Perhaps, instead of self-righteously sneering as you did here:

Perhaps?
You are agreeing in that post with the sentiment expressed by the thread, that God did it as a punishment.
Gabz said that teh people who spout that God did this as a judgement make her sick.

So, yes, you DID say that God did this as a judgement, by way if your post 74.

Who set you up as the Judge of my heart?

No one. Your own words judge you.

That was Sodom, and He destroyed them all. By the way, was God wrong in destroying Sodom? Did He do it, or was it just a freak of nature due only to man's fall?

I suppose that will be determined at the Judgment Seat of Christ -- hope to see you there.

" hope to see you there."

You'll be more surprised by who you DON'T see there.

Don't believe all the inhabitants of NO died. Although the destruction was great indeed, more lived than died. I would say at least a million survived in NO alone. Maybe God's grace spared a million.

Not saying that all of them died.
But how many deaths can there be before someone says, "They can't all have been deserving of this."

I've been washed in the blood of Jesus Christ. I'll be there based on His righteousness alone. His grace and mercy have been abudantly bestowed upon me. For that I am grateful and will proclaim His word until He returns or chooses to take me home. When He calls, I'm ready!

Don't you think that people are tired of hearing that God did this?
Your post 74 is saying that He did.

"I'll be there based on His righteousness alone. "

Funny, your post 74 with the sneering self-righteousness tells me otherwise.

I will be at the bema Judgement, not the White Throne Judgement. There is a difference.

The Bible says "all have sin and come short of the glory of God." That includes you, me, and every other human being ever born with the exception of Jesus Christ. It goes on to say "the wages of sin is death." Hence we all deserve to die, because we have all sinned. Fact is, we all will die someday. Whether in sickness, disaster, accident, or just old age. Maybe it's an issue of sematics here!

Then explain your post 74.

Perhaps you should retract your statement of post 7?
