I got a better idea, lets try this bitchick..
My last job was warden for city of edinburgh council in the temp accomodation for the homeless.. laid off on 7th jan, never claimed benefit's for over 7 months, as I thought, ok, lets see how far I get using NO money.
Did god provide food? No, because laws prevent planting it. So he could not feed me. I sold a plethora of nice synths to survive. Eventually I ran out of things to sell. Did god feed me? No. I haggled and bargained to the point folks got fed up with me including family and close friends.. where was your god when I ended up almost starving to death?
Where was Jesus?
In the end, I had to get off my fuckin arse and get my shit together. Cause I knew god, even if he could, could NOT help due to the laws in place.
It is easy to get disappointed in God when things don't go the way we want them to. But it isn't like God is our giant Santa Claus in the sky. He doesn't promise us a life of no pain or suffering. He promises to walk with us through it, if we allow Him and ask Him to. Also, as a Christian, I am called to be like Christ. What did Jesus go through? He went through hunger, homelessness, rejection, persecution and even death on a cross. Who am I to say that God has to give me anything? If all Jesus ever does for me is forgive my sins and give me the hope of heaven, then that is enough and I will be forever grateful. However, every good and perfect gift does come from the hand of God and He has been very good to me even in this physical life I am living now. (not that I haven't had suffering by any means! We all suffer. We are living in a fallen world with pain, sickness, death, etc. all around us)
And by the time our governments are finished with us, knowledge of god will be as wiped out as ISIS.
Me, I believe that people missed the rebirth of Jesus in the form of Bruce Lee, and we're paying for it..
