Where is God when innocent children are being murdered?

Answer 1

According to several passages from the Bible, directing or justifying the killing.

To take just Genesis, for example, check out 6:7, 6:17, 7:4, 7:21-23, 19:24, 22:2-13 (but it turns out his is really just a test!) That's just the first book. It gets worse.

Answer 2

I remember a history I read on an Australian News Paper. Two Catholics Nuns, one with a hammer and one with a gun went from house to house looking for children to kill in the country of Rwanda. The two Catholic Nuns killed over 400 children. A few years after I found out that they actually kill about 650 children. When they were arrested they were placed in the prison with the man because the women prisoners were scare of them. The two Catholic Women left the prison four years after and no crime charges was recorded. The Judges said that people do crazy things during war. I think that the Judges were cowards and were afraid of the Roman Catholic Church so they let the two Catholic Nuns go free. The children that they kill did not received any justice. A man working for the United Nation said on TV that he could not understand how Catholic women who are "christian" can harm children and feel okay with it. Do not blame God when a woman or a man hurt a child, blame the cowards Judges, the government and the United Nation who run away from the war. I hope that when NATO replaces the United Nation they will not become afraid and be intimidated by the Roman Catholic Church when they commit crimes and their priests abuse children.

Answer 3

"he is with the children, comforting them and bringing them home I truly believe that if he could make the murderers stop he would but somehow he has a plan"

Firstly thats a contradiction right there - if he could stop them he would - does that mean he cant? How do you know? I thought your god was ALL POWERFUL???

So the next logical question to ask is -

WHEN is he going to start answering prayers?????

Not the little ones about what dress to wear today - but the big ones like - Please God, I was born with a deformed arm, please can you give me a good arm. The person is 60 years old and still asking.

Answer 4

Why was the Son of God murdered?
He was innocent of any sin. Yet he had to suffer the humiliation of the cross.

If God would not spare His own son then who are we to judge?

Yes, we may not like the killing of innocent children but the reason the world is in the condition it is in today is because of Sin.

Answer 5

everything god has created has a reason
when innocent children are being murdered, i think there is a reason
if someone is being experienced disaster,this is evolution of his/her soul
in other hand , why do you think all children are innocent?
is possible the child who is being murdered, has been a children murderer in previous life.(if you believed in reincarnation)
these topics are much complicated and we have to be more considerate and avoid judge rashly

Answer 6

If you don't read the Bible, how can you know?

Satan is the ruler of this world. A world ruled by someone evil is full of suffering. "The god of this system of things has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, that the illumination of the glorious good news about the Christ, who is the image of God, might not shine through." - 2Corinthians 4:4

When Adam and Eve rebelled against God, they challenged his sovereignty, that is, his right to rule. Jehovah could have destroyed them and started over with another couple, but that would not have settled the issue of whose rulership is right and best for people. Granted time to develop their societies according to their own ideas, humans would demonstrate beyond any doubt whether rulership independent from God could ever be successful.

What do thousands of years of human history tell us? For all those centuries, people have tried many kinds of social, economic, political, and religious systems. However, wickedness and suffering have continued. In fact, 'wicked men have advanced from bad to worse,' especially in our time.—2 Timothy 3:13.

God will soon intervene in human affairs. The Scriptures tell us: "In the days of those kings [human rulerships now existing] the God of heaven will set up a kingdom [in heaven] that will never be brought to ruin. And the kingdom itself will not be passed on to any other people [never again will humans rule the earth]. It will crush and put an end to all these kingdoms [present rulerships], and it itself will stand to times indefinite."—Daniel 2:44.

"And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away." - Revelation 21:4

Answer 7

if god couldn't stop his own son from being murdered on the cross, how can he stop children being murdered? he could but can't interfere in someone Else's free will. god is with the children comforting them helping them.

Answer 8

He is where He always is. Crying over the brutality of man, but not interfering because He grants us free will. Those children though, are in Heaven with him, so don't be grieved. They no longer will suffer as we do. They are blessed. Men who do evil to his fellow man will be judged in due time. He who takes an Innocent life will not go unpunished.

Answer 9

it is god who recieves them in heaven. it is god who has taken them away from a miserable life they would have lived on this earth. trust god, He knows what He is doing. the murderers have only phisically damaged a body, the soul of the innocents has been taken care of by the Almighty.

Answer 10

The same place he is when anyone else who's innocent gets murdered.
