With all the bad news swirling around I guess it can make it easy for an Atheist or non believer to argue. When people ask me why bad things happen, I am left shrugging my shoulders sometimes as I just don’t have the answers. I recently came across a clip from the movie Oh God Book 2 with George Burns that kind of explains it very simply and I think he nails it on the head.

Oh God Book 2 Clip

I know that there will always be the ones that watch it and say it is ridiculous, but they don’t want to listen anyway. I love the clip and the way it is all explained simply.

I think that this verse is very re asuuring and helps to support the argument about bad things happening.

Revelation 21:4  He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.”

We are all tested in many different ways here on Earth and sometimes it includes pain, suffering and even death. Believe it or not but even the non believers are tested as God loves them too whether they care or not.

We see in the above verse Revelation 21:4 that god is not denieng that we will have suffering and bad things happen, but he will wipe it all away. He may wipe it all gone while we are here on this planet or he may do it when we go with him.

The important thing here is that everything that happens to us while we are here is made for us to grow in some sort of way. Just go through it with Faith and he will wipe it all away.

God Bless,
