MAYBOLE BAPTIST CHURCH
Rev Richard MARTIN - Minister
WHY DOES GOD ALLOW IT?
Anne Graham, daughter of the evangelist Billy Graham, was recently interviewed on American TV.
Asked How God could allow the New York attack to happen, she made a response along these lines:
God must be deeply saddened by this event, just as we are.
But for years we've been telling Him to 'get out'
- to get out of our schools and our government
- and to get out of our lives.
Because He is who He is, God has backed out.
We told Him to go -
how then can we expect His blessing & protection?
Is this hard to swallow? Please give it some thought.
Do you want God's blessing in your life? With Him it is
ALL OR NOTHING.
Echoing the Old Testament, Jesus put it like this:
Love the Lord your God with all your heart & with all your soul & with all your strength & with all your mind; &, Love your neighbour as yourself.
Luke 10.27
Whoever you are,
Whatever your need,
We'll gladly pray for you.
