Do you always feel that God is just ?

Answer 1

What?

Answer 2

Yes God is always Just.

The reason for your question might be the suffering you see going on or the disasters etc. The question you should also ask, but I don't mean in any sneering or nasty way, is that are all the people suffering - absolutely and completely innocent? Was it God who inflicted the suffering or someone else?

Also, what part do you/we play in the suffering of others? Take for example the governments in the US or Great Britain selling arms to developing countries - we support those governments and yet we don't think we have any responsibility for their actions - we think it is OK if the government makes money in this way and lowers our taxes.

Do we realise how much we are polluting the earth by our selfish lifestyles - OK I now no one is perfect and I myself also pollute by driving a car etc, but the question is I might be fooling myself if I didn't acknowledge that my actions didn't have any consequences on other people.

God says that in this material world we will always experience 3 kinds of troubles:
1. troubles experienced from self (illness, mental etc)
2. troubles inflicted by others (crimes, violence etc)
3. troubles experienced because of nature (weather, earthquakes, volcanoes etc)

In this we should realise that hardly anyone is working towards a common harmonious relationship instead almost everyone is acting selfishly trying to gratify their own senses and not really caring how others might be affected.

How many people for example think twice about the fashion clothes, sports shoes (nike, reebok) etc that they purchase at an extortionate price which are made by virtual slave labour in the developing countries?

So, when natural disasters occur half-way around the other side of the world we often don't think what we might have done to cause those disasters but instead ask whether God was being just in inflicting these things on poor innocent people.

The Hindu scriptures are the only ones which actually highlight these things by explaining the law of karma (action and reaction). You see karma is not just to do with reincarnation but a whole complex equation of interactions.

Answer 3

Our feelings have to be ignored sometimes. What looks to me like an unfair event is actually God's way of pushing me down the right path, and will eventually lead to greater blessings, spiritual or material. God IS just, he is the only truly righteous being there is. It's not the easiest thing in the world to trust him, but I've found that trusting Him always pays off, he does after all know me better than I know myself.

Answer 4

Does this sound like the actions of a just God? Revisiting punishments for 3 generations? Make your own mind up, but I know where I sit on this one.

Exodus 20:5 "For I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation."
Exodus 34:6-7 " . . . The Lord God, merciful and gracious, . . . that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children's children, unto the third and to the fourth generation."

Answer 5

'feel' is just too weak and far too far from it. I am absolutely convinced that God is just. This concept is far too above human comprehension. However, on the day of judgement, when you receive your statement of account, nobody will be needed to judge you, You'd be absolutely convinced that this detailed recoed before you is nothing short of your handiwork.
Perhaps you may be thinking of 'equal opportunity'. Well, maybe you should ask for equal endowment. we are beautifully endowed with something that can make you excel and have no reason to complain. It human that centred endowment to money and worldly goods. Good health is an endowment to start with.
Being poor is an endowment because if you evaluate carefully, you'd surely have asses to something that a rich wealth cannot afford.
If you think real deep, you'd get it real that God is Just.

Answer 6

Sure. One thing is that God is fair and just. He made a way for everyone to live in eternity. Most of us reject it though. If one hears the gospel and believes it -that's the easy way. If one has never heard the gospel-they are dealt with differently-but they have an opportunity for heaven-no one is left out by God. Don't confuse death and war and famine with God's mercy. The world is full of sin-not God.

Answer 7

God, i have found out that is always just, even if we do not realize it at some sour moment and we usually dont, later however we are bound to find out that he was not only just but kind too..i know this out of my personal experiance and i am a firm believer that justice is a quality of God, God is a justice and his scales are always level...

Answer 8

God IS the whole of creation, which at its root is pure energy. In the beginning it was good (high resonating energy).
Everything we, see, do, think, hear and are, is God and as we evolved man became greedy, wanting the power for himself and when this happened, man created bad (low resonating energy)
Everything that is bad in this world is manifest of man. All that is good is manifest of God - there is no question regarding God being just (fair) because God 'just' IS!

Answer 9

Yes indeed. When we do something that God completely disagrees with our carnal nature (our fleshly sins), that is when the conviction of the Holy Ghost comes in to warn us that if we continuing on that sin(s), something bad (small or great) will befall on us. Before, during, or after that happens, we need to ask Him for forgiveness of our sinful trespasses & cleanse us from our unrighteousness (1st John 1:9). We need to stay on the narrow path of righteousness in our spiritual walk with our Creator (which a few million have chosen this hard path) instead the wide path of destruction that Satan created for those who rebelled against God (which the majority have chosen even if they knew it or not). Let us keep on praying for those who are lost, sick, hungry, tired, etc... & pray for our nation including God's chosen people & nation (Israel). Peace out.

Answer 10

God is not interested! You have free will, you are totally responsible for your actions. That is the challenge of being human. If God goes back on its word, God help you!

Answer 11

Oh course, read Romans 8:28. God is always jsut and works for the good of those that love him.
