Perfect Justice in God's Perfect Time
Dear Bro. Eli,
Please help me. I don’t know what to feel anymore. It seems like something is attacking my belief in God.
It all started when I read an article about children and women, lots of them, being sold as prostitutes all over the world. Most of the children don’t even know what sex is yet. These women and children are constantly raped, until they won’t pass as a virgin anymore, according to the article I’ve read. And when the children grow up, they don’t know anything but to sell sex so they have no choice but to do it to survive. The numbers of the victims are plenty, Bro. Eli. They are innocent children but they have been dragged into this kind of business. I believe you’ve also heard of this kind of thing, sex trafficking which is a big business done by many countries, especially in the third world.
My problem is that, I don’t know what to think anymore. Something is lingering in my mind, telling me not to believe in God anymore, although I’m really, really trying hard to disregard this thought inside my mind but whenever I think of what’s happening to these innocent children and poor women, it really makes me sad. Why does God allow this to happen to many innocent Children? It makes me wonder also if God exists (although I really try hard to fight this thought) because of things like this that happen. I’m sorry if it seemed I’m questioning God’s authority, but I don’t really know what to do and think anymore. I’m sorry. I’m so sorry for being so weak at this time but I really need your help in this.
What should I do? Please help me Bro. Eli.

Dear Marcus,
Evil is everywhere. The whole world now “lieth in wickedness”.
1 JOHN 5:9
And we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness.
And we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness.
The root cause of all evil is the rebellious Satan, that now deceives the world.
REVELATION 12:7-9
7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,
8 and prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.
9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
There are religions or faith which do not believe in the existence of the devil. One good example is one of the false Christs prophesied by the Bible in the person of Jose Luis Miranda, which was interviewed by NBC, and said in international television that the devil or Satan does not exist.
Some of the teachings of Jose Luis De Jesus Miranda, leader of Growing in Grace are:
…Sin no longer exists
…There’s no such thing as “the devil”
…Prayer is a waste of time
…All religious leaders are liars
The Bible never speaks of vain things or things unreal.
JAMES 4:5
Do ye think that the Scripture saith in vain…
Do ye think that the Scripture saith in vain…
Every word of God conveys truth and wisdom.
PSALMS 119:160
Thy word is true from the beginning: and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth forever.
PROVERBS 8:8
All the words of my mouth are in righteousness; there is nothing froward or perverse in them.
Thy word is true from the beginning: and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth forever.
PROVERBS 8:8
All the words of my mouth are in righteousness; there is nothing froward or perverse in them.
The word of God speaks of the devil and demons. They are realities, although not seen by the human eyes. Their works and devices are manifested among human beings.
REVELATION 16:14
For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.
The devil is not only concerned about the leaders of the world, but also to judges, magistrates, and religious leaders. Their victims are the innocent, the ignorant, and the poor.
JOB 9:24
The earth is given into the hand of the wicked: he covereth the faces of the judges thereof; if not, where, and who is he?
2 CORINTHIANS 11:13-15
13 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
Some of their victims are the unsuspecting.
ROMANS 16:17-18 (ASV)
17 Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them that are causing the divisions and occasions of stumbling, contrary to the doctrine which ye learned: and turn away from them.
18 For they that are such serve not our Lord Christ, but their own belly; and by their smooth and fair speech they beguile the hearts of the innocent.

18 For they that are such serve not our Lord Christ, but their own belly; and by their smooth and fair speech they beguile the hearts of the innocent.
They even show miracles to deceive people.
MATTHEW 24:24
For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
These are some of the tangible realities proving the existence of the devil and demons in this world. Anybody who will say that the devil and demons do not exist is showing their utter ignorance of God’s word and realities.
The evil that you are mentioning about children and women being exploited as sex slaves of the opportunistic, abusive, rich, and powerful people in society are works of the devil.
JAMES 3:15-16
15 This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish.
16 For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.
15 This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish.
16 For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.
The evil that you see and hear makes you doubt of the existence of God. I am sorry to hear this from you. This is the common thinking of people who spend a little effort — or none at all, in searching for realities in life. They say that if God exists and is real, why does He allow these things to happen? But this thinking is neither logical nor scientific.
Scientifically, chaos is opposed to order. Mutation is opposed to the regular characteristics of a gene or a chromosome. It is an alteration of the normal process.
Do you believe that we have things, traits, and characteristics of every existing thing in this world which we may consider normal? I believe you do. Normally, a parent cares for his or her child. Normally, a hen cares for its chicks. Normally, a dove feeds its young. Normal people have in them the feeling of love, care, compassion, and respect for others. This is reality. But there are those who murder and rape their own children. There are those who have no pity towards others. These are things abnormal. All these things are caused by the influence of a reality that exists: the devil.
The existence of the devil proves the existence of God. God hates evil. He does not want evil to happen to anyone; but there is another reality to consider. He has given His creatures the power to choose between good and evil. He made us with the power to decide for ourselves, to choose, to dislike — making us better than a robot. I will — and perhaps you, also — not want to be a robot. The greatest gift of God in our being is the power to decide for ourselves. He wants us to obey Him at will and not by force.
ISAIAH 1:19
If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land:
If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land:
The cause of evil is the improper use of our free will. But we must not doubt God’s justice. Victims of evil will be rewarded justice in God’s perfect time. The question with some of us is we only consider what is ‘now’ and what is ‘seen’. God is eternal; and there is eternity that comes ahead. Surely, every evil act will be punished and every victim will be comforted.
ISAIAH 13:11
And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogance of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible.
He is not slow or slack about His promise, but is long-suffering for He waits for sinners to repent and realize their mistakes; and does not want anybody to perish.
2 PETER 3:9 (RSV)
The Lord is not slow about his promise as some count slowness, but is forbearing toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance.
The Lord is not slow about his promise as some count slowness, but is forbearing toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance.
This is being abused by many, but it will satisfy God’s justice for them when they are punished with eternal damnation.
ECCLESIASTES 8:11
Because sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil.
Because sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil.
2 THESSALONIANS 2:11-12
11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
God is a God of perfect justice. Hope in your heart that there is a time — a perfect time for God’s intervention… and it is coming soon!
May God enlighten you.
God Bless you.
Amen. Thanks be to GOD for this article.

Amen, and to God be the Glory.
ReplyDeleteWe will be seeing more evil things in this dispensation than some 50 years ago...but we must trust that God's perfect justice will soon to come.
ReplyDeleteWith this blog, I thank God very much!
I've been wronged, harassed and bullied for doing something right. When I experience evil doings from evil men, my heart tells me that if evil is real, God MUST be real, HE must be REAL. 2Pet 3:9 this verse consoled me today. This article made me cry.
ReplyDeleteGod Set's One Day To Judge All People In The Last Judgement...And All Will Be To Be To God's Glory!!!
ReplyDeleteWe really must be ready and aware that evil surrounds us, especially to this day. We also must believe that God does exist and that he is a God of justice.
ReplyDeleteSalamat sa Dios!
ReplyDeleteOur God is Love. He is not the cause of all the chaos in this world but the devil. We should realize that we were given a power to choose between evil and good. We should make the best choice.
ReplyDeleteWe should make the best choice and believe that God is Justice.Thanks be to God and to God all the glory!
