Why is all of this horrific stuff happening in such a short period of time?

On Judgement Day, those of us who profess Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior and have repented of our sins do not get what we deserve, which is indeed our Father in Heaven's judgement and wrath.

Everyone else ...

Here's what I mean by that: here on earth we suffer the consequences of our decisions and actions. I believe that's true whether or not we have professed Jesus Christ, the Son of God who shed his blood for our sins, as our Lord and Savior. We live in a fallen world. We are all fallen, each and every one of us, saved by the Blood of Christ or not. We all suffer the consequences of our decisions and actions, saved or not.

When we stand before Our Lord God in Heaven on Judgement Day, the difference between us all is whether or not we've accepted Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior, acknowledging Him as the perfect sacrifice, that which Our Lord demanded, as payment for our sins.

Those of us who have accepted Jesus as our Lord and Savior will be with God in Heaven. Of that we're assured.

Those who have not accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior will be separated from God for eternity.

Are you and I on the same page here? If not, I'd welcome from you where I may have strayed and as always am willing to be corrected.

Peace.

None of these discussions/debates are about what will happen on judgement day. (On that we agree). They are about specific events in the here and now and how they may or may not relate to providential punishment.

If only some terrorist could poison the mask supply. Nothing deadly, just a bad rash every time they put on their annoying face diapers.

God’s the Creating Actor; He paid the piper, He calls the tunes.
It’s always his enemies who are reacting, recalibrating, recalculating and revising their plans.

Beyond that, declaring what misfortune of our isn’t the Hand of God... that’s beyond our direct knowledge, and above our pay grade, anyway.

I want to say, “Thank God so many cats survived,” but my heart aches for the poor black kitties.
