When God’s Justice Is Questioned. Part [19] 10/21/2025 (Evening thought)

Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

What God says He means, and He means what He says and thus, He cautions us against adding, subtracting, deliberately manipulating, and giving private interpretations to His word. In our day, science is still fixated on the curious in contradiction to what the Scriptures declare on the origin of species. There are many satellites or telescopes scanning the heavens for the origins of life, when the clear, concise account is given in the Bible. Here in the above passage it is in one simple short sentence.

Again, to many minds The Lord might seem to be missing in action, as the cries of the stranger, and the poor reach up to heaven, whilst the rich, and the infamous, might seem to be getting away with murder as it were. These things perplex the minds of many persons and some are led to question God’s justice, while some believe He is taking too long. We’ll need to remember that in the greater scheme of things He is working out everything for the greater good of His people, and the very best good for the world at large.

Harboring the Scriptural perspectives on serving and loving God will prevent in large measure the common misunderstandings of what He does or what He may permit. And, it is of critical importance that our minds be aligned with His word and will so that we wouldn’t question His strange acts, when they will begin to occur in the final chapters of earth’s history.

Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!

When God’s Justice Is Questioned. Part [18] 10/20/2025 (Morning thought)

2nd Samuel 6:11 And the ark of the Lord continued in the house of Obededom the Gittite three months: and the Lord blessed Obededom, and all his household.

In addition to this, if, as David concluded, with so many others, that God acted inappropriately, and as a result they were justified in being scared of Him, how is it that in both instances where the ark was removed to certain households, nothing but God’s blessing came upon those two homes? How do we square the questioning of His justice on the one hand and great blessings from the very same God under different circumstances?

There seems to be some great disconnect that persons keep missing for some reason. The answer to this conundrum is as simple as it gets, for the issue has to do with the perspectives that are held by many people including Christians as it pertains to the instructions and laws of God. There is a lot of noise in contemporary Christian circles, as regards God’s law and His instructions to us.

All of the reasons such as good intentions, reflex actions, personal opinions, and God’s love, do not atone for disobedience. When God told Cain and Abel to bring a lamb, He meant a lamb and nothing else. Persons who might genuinely be in ignorance of the Sabbath might be accepted by God for their sincerity, but as far as accepting any other day of the week as a substitute, just because a person did not know, that will never ever happen.

Genesis 4:6 And the Lord said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance fallen? 7 If thou do well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doe not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him.

May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!
