he wasnt there. He doesnt care about innocent people. Just look at all the sick and dying people in hospitals. God doesnt exist in my humble opinon.!!

not something appropriate to the tale exhibits that professed Christians have been the perpetrators at the back of the shootings. although, that doesn't steer clear of the possibility. If there would be an ideological clarification for why an avowed Christian would kill Amish people he did not understand, it would be that the Amish’s existence underscores how a actual Christian existence is meant to be lived out, and how many conservative Christians in this usa relatively don’t degree as much as the identify Christian. people on no account like it whilst their hypocrisy is outlined. in spite of each and every little thing, look what befell to Jesus whilst he highlighted the hypocrisy the Pharisees.

The same place he is every time something like that happens when innocent people get murdered, or some natural disaster. In the minds and hearts of the people who believe in him. All things happen for a reason god haves nothing to do with if things turn out with a terrible outcome or a good one.

It would appear that God is as grieved in His heart as we are.
Genesis 6:5 Then the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. 6 And the LORD was sorry that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart.
There is also the instance where "Jesus wept" at the death of His friend Lazarus.
Where was God? He certainly wasn't making the VERY human CHOICE to kill those children or any others. What part of choice do we not understand?

We're never happy are we? When God heals the sick or when he answers our prayers, do we give him any glory? No, all we do is complain! How do you know that he didn't spare all the rest of the children at that school? Or maybe he was saving someone from dying in Iraq. Why do we all have to look at the half empty glass instead of the half full glass.

God gave dominion over this world to someone else when we chose to do things our own way instead of His. Most people fail to see that. It's one of the first stories in the Bible. When satan tempts Jesus in the desert, satan claims to hold the power over the world's nations.
If God went around fixing all of our evil, preventing our actions, we wouldn't have free will would we? What good would that be to anyone?

Would you rather us be robots? He gave us a free will, and it is up to us to do good things and follow God, but he is not going to force us.
Remember this, because someday a big earthquake is going to hit California and kill lots of people. We are going to blame God, buti it is really just our stupidity of building in a place where we know earthquakes occur.

Why blame God? This was an act committed by a deranged
MAN, NOT GOD! The Bible says "unforeseen occurrence befall us all."
We are living in an imperfect world with imperfect people living in, it should
not surprise us when tragedy strikes?

Weeping in heaven for those suffering. God gave us free will. Unfortunately, not all of us choose a path that leads to peace and love. That is the caveat to free will as well as its responsibilty. To be truly free, God cannot interfere by his own design. He aches for those who mourn, rejoices with those who celebrate, and hopes for those that lose their way. Thus, we have ultimate responsibility for our decisions and can't blame God when things go wrong.

Sitting on his throne. Did you stop and think for just one minute that more kids could have been killed had God not been on his throne taking charge. The man could have gotten away and went and killed more in other schools. Dont blame God for a man who went mad. God didnt hand that man a gun. Blame satan for ruining people's lives.

In Heaven watching the madness WE have to learn how it is when Satan runs things. If you want miracles start praying He will come back when procphecies are fulfilled..
