@white devil.... We can all critisize God for what happens on this earth, and turn around and say that He is a heartless God if he allows people in sudan to have miserable lives, aswell as cambodia, somalia, and even people in this country. Even for the children who are molested in this country, we can "blame" God. I hear that arguement, but at the same time, you should also be well aware since you were a Christian, being finally strapped doesn't mean you can't be wealthy in faith. If a man in Sudan accepts God, he is better off than bill gates if he doesn't believe. A 4 year old child who is molested in this country is hard evidence that satan is still very much real. We all have free will. The person who is molesting that 4 year old child does so on free will, and unfortunately that child has to be a victim because some sick bastard has fallen into the temptation placed by satan.
I couldn't leave this post without saying this...
For all the people who don't believe in God, whether they never have or they used to believe, I know the Lord is real. Anyone who has ever been saved, knows God is real. I had made the sinners prayer when I was in boot camp, begging God for forgiveness and for guidance from then on, before I knew what the sinners prayer even was. God showed me how real he was about 6 months later at a church in Santa Rosa. People around the world tell God on a daily basis that they will believe in Him, if He shows them a sign of concrete evidence right when they ask him to. I KNOW, that God will not show you how real he is until you put faith in Him. If you're asking how do I know that he exists....It's because when I was saved, I physically felt the exact moment when God cleansed my soul. My body instantly felt like it was 200 degrees. My tears were falling on my praying hands, and they felt like water hot enough to be boiling, and then...the best feeling I've ever known was a resident in my body. I knew there was an immediate change that had taken place, and it was because satan was no longer the bearer of my soul. I knew he was real before I felt him physically take my life over, but after that, there was no way I could ever doubt Him again. For all of the Christians who leave his side, they likely have either never felt that feeling, which tells me they never really put their faith in he, or they have allowed satan to win the battle of their soul, because they chose to believe in the worldly things that make this earth miserable, and they believe those things are Gods fault. A Sudanese (forgive me if that is incorrect) person can inherit the kingdom of God, and the wealthiest person on this earth could end up eternally in hell. This life, even if it lasted 100 years, is infinitely SHORTER THAN ETERNITY. Remember that!
