If you read the bible, which I highly recommend. It will explain a lot of crazy things in this old world! And sometime help you make sense of what's going on in yours. Because face it, so many things happen to us that's just plain bad. Like the harmless guy who gets beat up and robbed and has never so much as hurt a flea his entire life! Or the lady who is so caring for others and she gets terminal cancer! Well God's people are not immune to this! Somehow somewhere we were told if you just follow Jesus you will be protected and nothing bad will happen to you. You will be under THE HEDGE OF PROTECTION! That makes me wonder what happened to Paul and Silas' Hedge? When they were beaten and thrown into prison for setting some random slave girl free from demon possession and her slave trafficking masters! ACTS 16-You really should read that NOW! Well this girl was following those 2 around for days yelling behind them, saying these guys no the way to heaven-listen to them. But that is so confusing. because everyone knew she practiced divination and sorcery! So it was like she was doing something that was credible for once yet she told the future by demonic influence! Just goes to show you the devil loves to confuse people about the gospel. That is why there is so many false gospels out there! Like the one that says, just be good and work your way to heaven! Or LOVE WINS- BY ROB BELL. Another heretic who claims there is no hell and everyone will go to heaven in the end because of God's love! so Bad things happen to God's people to advance THE TRUE GOSPEL! You know the one that involves pain, suffering, sacrificial love and nails and a CROSS! Its costly grace because it cost a man his life! And this Gospel also gives life! This woman was proclaiming that she possessed a gospel, but had yet to be delivered from the sin that possessed her. The Gospel is God's true saving power and if you really understand it, you will begin to understand why he allows bad things to happen. Let's face it, if this place wasn't filled with so much pain, hatred and evil- we would really never want to leave it. Its ok Jesus, just leave us here we will fix it up- we got plenty of duct tape and Jesus said, you can keep your duct tape, I will use these 3 nails, and make everything brand new! Amen
