WHY DOES A LOVING GOD ALLOW SO MUCH EVIL IN THE WORLD .


By Rev. Michael Benson Ajayi. 

"'so all the world from east to west will know there is no other God. I am the Lord , and there is no other. I create the light and make the darkness. I send good times and bad times. I, the Lord , am the one who does these things."
Isaiah 45:6‭-‬7 NLT
  God is both creator and judge , he judges our choices . He gave us the right to chose as an act of love.  The first couple :Adam and Eve where given the right to make choices between Good and Evil that was the essence of the Tree of Good and Evil . A test of their fidelity.
   The life we live and our environment is a function of the choices that we make : this is what gives meaning to life's circumstances .
 When God created the world it was in perfect harmony with Heaven , the Bible says in Genesis 1:1" created the heavens and the Earth " the word 'and' is a conjunction, meaning the Earth was in perfect harmony with God until man made a choice to live independent of God , this was the Genesis of the instabilities of life on earth . 
   Every manufacturer attaches a product manual  to his product before selling to customers: when God created the Earth he gave Adam the manual for operating the Earth. Adam disregarded the and what we see as evil today is the consequences of rejecting the manufacturer's manual.. the Earth was created with its standard scientific operating system ( e.g temperature , Atmospheric pressures, Humidity etc ) the cataclysmic activities across the world are consequent on the violation of environmental laws . For instance deadly earth tremors have been experienced in places with excessive mining activities thousands of feet beneath the ground . To every action there is a reaction. The reactions or events we experience are  God's response to our action through the elements of the universe.  God's essence permeates throughout the fabric of the material universe . He is everywhere and in all things . the book of Job says " Do you know the laws of the universe? Can you use them to regulate the earth?
Job 38:33 NLT
  The universe was created by a living God and has intelligence and response to us in accordance to the actions we take in support or against the elements of the universe. 
     Adam's choice of independence from God's wisdom , meant the only means of effective communication  was through an adversity -and- reward system "For the godless are full of resentment. Even when he punishes them, they refuse to cry out to him for help. But by means of their suffering, he rescues those who suffer. For he gets their attention through adversity. Job 36:13‭, ‬15 NLT Bible . Adversity is a necessary means of effective communication due to the hardness of the human heart. If we see God in our adversity we  would be better off at the end  “God is leading you away from danger, ...to a place free from distress. He is setting your table with the best food.
Job 36:16 NLT Bible 
Prayers : Heavenly father forgive me of my sins against you I believe Jesus Christ died and was raised again for my salvation I receive him as Lord and saviour and receive the Holy Ghost and power to overcome the forces darkness in Jesus name  .

BREAK EVIL FAMILY PATTERNS

Image
 By Rev.Michael Benson Ajayi  Titus 1:12 -14 "One of themselves,   even a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians   are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies.  This  witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply,  that they may be sound in the faith;  Not giving  heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of  men, that turn from the truth."       The church in Crete was in disarray and the apostle assigned Titus to go and put things in order . On investigation it was discovered the church suffered from a vicious cycle of evil family  patterns. They were not enjoying the fruits of the salvation experience . An example of evil family patterns is that of King David who defiled Uriah's wife ,murdered him and his son Absalom murdered his brother Amnon (2Sam13) dethroned him and defiled his concubines openly (2Samuel16). His son Amnon defiled his sister Tamar (2Sam.13) and so on yet David was the anointed of the Lord....

COMMON CAUSES OF DISUNITY.

Image
 By Rev Michael Benson Ajayi "Even some men from your own group will rise up and distort the truth in order to draw a following."Acts 20:30 NLT   "An angry person starts fights; a hot-tempered person commits all kinds of sin." Proverbs 29:22 NLTBible        Disunity is defined as : disagreement and conflict within a group. It is the greatest hindrance to the promotion of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Disunity creates an avenue for Satan to promote sin.       The causes of disunity are not farfetched ,they include : Unhealthy Crave for power or self- promotion. Whenever there is an unhealthy pursuit of influence in a family or group it results in resistance. Self-promotion gives birth to unfair practices and injustices. In Numbers 12: 1-15  Moses' sister Miriam and Aaron rebelled against him desiring to rule by force and in Numbers 16 :1-35 Korah led an insurrection against Moses desiring to be part of leadership. In both cases ,God wa...

CONSEQUENCES OF LACK OF FAITH

Image
By Rev. Michael Benson Ajayi " Be careful then, dear brothers and sisters. Make sure that your own hearts are not evil and unbelieving, turning you away from the living God." Hebrews 3:12 NLTBible  ' Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here, and look at my hands. Put your hand into the wound in my side. Don’t be faithless any longer. Believe!”John 20:27 NLTBible     Faith is the guarantee of the manifestation an unseen reality . It is the reason behind the hope we have in God and the fulfilment of his promises. It is the substance ( title deed) of things hoped for ,the evidence of things not seen (Hebrew 11:1) .The Bible warns against not having faith in God. Lack of faith is equal to calling God a liar and untrustworthy. This type of reasoning turns us into enemy's of God.    The gospel is so much under attack by the activities of faithless religionists . They plan to replace the holy scripture with humanistic dogma. The danger in this is the relative...
