Because… that’s the entire reason everything is how it is according to Christianity… with out the fallen world everything wouldn’t matter because nothing would be wrong
We die because of sin. Ever since Eve, then Adam disobeyed God by eating of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, God said they shall surely die (Genesis 2:16-17). They were living in Paradise, in their perfect, uncorrupt bodies where there was no death, no sorrow, no evil, no corruption, no disease - but once they disobeyed God, the curse of death came upon them - which again, is the punishment for SIN. "for the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord: Romans 6:23 Once sin came into the world, then we had disease, death, anger, lust, murder, sorrow, pain, suffering and everything we see now. God sent his only Son to take OUR punishment on the cross. Without Christ, all would die in their sin and end up in eternal damnation in hell. Before Christ gave up His spirit, He said "it is finished". He made the payment for OUR sin and ALL our sins can be washed away IF we truly put our faith in Him and repent of our sins (feel sorrow, regret and turn from sin). We must realize we are all sinners heading to hell, and know what Christ did for us. He gave us the greatest gift and suffered horribly for that FREE gift.
The Heavens and the Earth was created in the same week as The first man (Adam). It sounds like you don't believe in the Bible if you think the Earth way older than humans and it was already disastrous before man cam on Earth.
Oh yeah of course everything bad is due to sin /S that’s why earthquakes happen at the same fault lines typically. People beloved in Greek Gods at some point too.
Well duh because the God made the nature to correspond that way… earthquakes happening normally at fault lines is cool, and the pagan Greek gods are cool to learn about but fall apart pretty easily 🪵🪵🪵
The Lord is slow to anger and great in power and will not at all acquit the wicked he has his ways in the whirlwind and the clouds are the dust of his feet. Natural disasters are not "natural"
Consider the intricate web of life on Earth, where every species and natural process is connected. Natural disasters like earthquakes, thunderstorms, tornadoes, volcanoes, and floods may seem destructive, but they play vital roles in the balance of our planet. First, earthquakes, while causing devastation, release pressure within the Earth's crust, preventing even more catastrophic events. They also create fertile soil for agriculture. Second, thunderstorms are nature's way of replenishing our atmosphere with oxygen, removing pollutants, and nourishing plants. They maintain a stable climate necessary for life. Third, tornadoes, though terrifying, serve to redistribute heat and moisture in the atmosphere, preventing the buildup of excess heat and helping to balance global temperatures. Fourth, volcanoes, despite their fiery eruptions, release essential gases and minerals, shaping our landscapes and providing the building blocks of life. They also regulate Earth's temperature. Lastly, floods, although destructive, support diverse ecosystems by redistributing nutrients, maintaining wetlands, and ensuring the survival of countless species. In essence, these 'disasters' are nature's way of maintaining a delicate balance. Without them, Earth would lack the conditions necessary for human existence, and the intricate tapestry of life as we know it would unravel."
This individual said absolutely nothing to validate an answer. Why does God allow so much injustice and catastrophic disasters? I see so much evil everywhere, daily, yet it keeps going on and on. I see so many rich evil people, while the ones that deserve it are poor and miserable. I pray for my situation to get better, hoping to get an answer from God, and what do I hear in return, nothing. But if I go on TH-cam and ask the same question, I get lots of peoples opinions, yet I go back to square one, which means, nothing is materializing.
you're absolutely right and no one would be able to answer all the questions you have. I don’t think anyone has all the answers but what i do know is God exists and he is Good. it doesn’t matter how many explanations you get, there will still be a thousand reasons to doubt (thats where faith comes in, i believe). I'm no preacher but im just saying what i know to be true.
Believe me, the ones in poor situations learn more about the ways of God than well to do people. Pray and God's line of thinking will incorporate with yours. You will then understand why bad things happen and will gain knowledge on how to overcome them. One more thing: Be Patient!
God is so awesome! He alone is in control of everything 🙌
Everything except our free will.
Me - why u slapped
He - what about the time I didn't
LMAO, this is perfect.
And how if you don't slap me at all, for starters.
Great answer to the question for me. Thank you ❤
Learned a lot From this. thank you
If I was God, I would be much nicer to my creations.
Short, simple and right to THE POINT.
If I were man, I would be nicer to God's creations in the womb.
This answered literally nothing. I'm a Christian and even I gained nothing from this explanation.
God controls everything
maybe you don't but there is something in there hope you also see it
It's just an excuse for the unexplainable.
I agree. I’ve been looking for someone to answer this and always found nothing and just a lot of “He could’ve but doesn’t”
