if god is so powerful then why he let all the bad things happen in the world?

Answer 1

For the same reason good parents don't do everything for their children forever and don't cater to their every need. Taking care of this world is our job.

Answer 2

One reason is because he has given us free will. He gives us the choice to do good or bad. Unfortunately we have a lot of people who want to do bad to the 10th power. Another reason is because God in his infinite wisdom knows everything there is to know and he has a perfect plan for each of us. This life is not meant to be easy for nobody. We all have to go through death and sorrows. We cannot see the good that comes from tragedies but God can because he can see everything and every possible outcome all at once. We can't, it's that simple. You have to just trust that he knows what he is doing and he is perfect.

His goal is not to prevent all our evil actions just yet. When Jesus returns then there will be no more sickness, death, or bad things. For now we have to pray that the bad stuff doesn't happen.

Answer 3

he may have made the world, but he doesnt manipulate it, things just happen, usualy because humans set things into motion. We can also set good things into motion, but too few of us do it, because we are greedy, stupid and dont think things through. A plan should be made and things should be thought out before we start things, but that rearely happens. people dont realize that thought and will create actions. they sit there and wish bad things on others, and then those things happen. More people need to wish good for others. That can happen too! Some people get mad if we blame God for letting evil befall us, but those same people want to blame a "Satan" for tempting us. There is no satan, bad comes from the weakness and greed of humans. we dont have a little angel and demon on oposite shoulers warring for our soul. we make those decisions. whether to do right or wrong. It is us who are creating evil , or good, in this world, not a war of Gods.

Answer 4

God doesn't stop free will. If people choose to do bad things than why would God stop it. I know that once you are saved and you are 'covered in the blood', the blood Christ shed for us when he was crucified, than you are protected by God. We cause bad things to happen, we choose to do them. I have never understood why people blame God for all the wrong in this world. That's like asking 'Why God let Adam and Eve eat the fruit?' Somethings are apart of God's will too.

Answer 5

God doesn't just let bad things happen. Don't forget that Satan doesn't live in hell like he is presumed, he lives here on Earth. He is the reason behind the evil amongst us. I honestly don't even think that we are supposed to know all of God's reasoning. Maybe we will find out one day when we die but by then it won't matter, cuz we will either be in heaven or hell. Good Luck dude and try reading the bible. It's not all that bad.

Answer 6

If you lived in God then God always be with you (read Rome 8:28) then you will find that His purpose for you is always good things not bad things (read Jeremiah 29:11).

On the contrary if you were opposite of all the above.

Simple right?

Answer 7

The bad things are the result of breaking His rules. It is called sin, and when we do it, there are consequences that we call bad things. If you steal (that is sin) and you go to jail, (that is bad thing) The big problem is that people sins do not just affect themselves, but others too. So Adam and Eve disobeyed God (that is sin) the world becomes full of desease (That is bad thing). Hitler wants to run the world (that is sin) world war 2 takes place (that is bad thing). It is all the consequences of sinning against God.

Answer 8

God had given us enough commandments to obey, all the good things come from the God and only bad things come from within ourselves. God had agreed to the Satan to mislead human, this is the way to test our faith towards the God. All those who follow the Satan would certainly bring disaster to human and the world itself. Those sinners would be accounted for what they had done on earth during the judgment day

Answer 9

God, with His power, gave Humans the power to choose their actions, and to let those actions reap their own consequences. Thus, while God can claim ownership of the planet (and the universe) He doesn't completely control everything that happens on it. He has given us some independence in thought and action.

Answer 10

God is powerful, but He don't want robots. Man has sinned, and Sin is what rules the world. He wants us to come to Him, and change our lives. He gives us all free will to do what we want. Don't think people are getting away with all the evil. They will have to answer for what they have done wrong. When we sin, and ask for forgiveness, He does forgive, but we still have to take the consequences for our actions. Whether it be here on earth, or before the judgment seat.

Answer 11

he doesnt create bad things to happen, we do. why should he clean up after our mess. plus we have been put here on the earth to be tried and tested for a better world in the next life, we need to learn to deal with different emotions and catastrophes for us to be able to become stronger as a person. and because you are so focused on the bad things that are happening in the world, you are missing out on all the wonderful things, so many miracles happen each and every day, most people are just too wound up in their own lives to notice.
