Essay / Worldview Reflection - 1971
The first question that arises in the minds of unbelievers is: Why is there so much suffering and commerce in the world if there is such a God? powerful to stop it? This question is what has cost many people to lose their faith, forgetting to know that the Bible has given us the reason why there is suffering among us. This happens because of our iniquities, we suffer because we lost connection with God a long time ago and we continue to make the same mistake today. Another thing that bothers people is the concept of faith. Must scientists have given people reasons to disbelieve because in their opinion God is not real because there is no physical proof of his existence for them. And the Bible says that God is a spirit, which means we wouldn't be able to physically connect with Him until we access the spiritual part of life. God has revealed Himself in the Bible and He speaks to many of us through dreams, visions and even in our minds, but many find it difficult to believe in something they can see. Another excerpt that many find with the mbible is found in the book of Genesis, when Satan tricked Adam and Eve into eating the apple. Most people do not understand where Satan comes from, considering the fact that he was not mentioned in the previous chapters of creations. People ask questions such as: If everything God created was good, then where did Satan come from and how did he gain access to the Garden of Eden which was God's present. What was the darkness doing in the mist of light? Honestly, these are questions I can't answer or explain, but I believe there is a loving God who always has my best interest in Him.
