Why God allow tragedies happen to us?

Question

Last night, I heard on BBC some people in the UK were infected with HIV during blood transfusion, including a 2-month old baby. Have you heard that news yet? Why God allow this happen to a baby ? I am a new Christian. I can't understand.

Eds: Thanks for your encouragement. I have been reading and praying. I will try to read more and more Christian books and listen to Christian radios. Thanks. God bless you.

Answer 1

Even though you may not understand it now, the important thing is to realize that there is a good reason to everything that happens. But learning takes much patience and serious study. And everyone should begin again, at the beginning.

We are spirit beings created by God in His image and likeness. Created innocent and ignorant, we are to become perfect adult spirits through our own efforts. Earth is where we study and prepare for the Real Life in heaven.

To learn about good and evil, we will need to undergo all sorts of experiences. We learn from the good, but also from the bad. By comparing the different shades and aspects of the subject experience, we learn what it is really about.

Begin by knowing more about our True Self:

Answer 2

GOD did not do this satan did. Many seem to think that GOD will step up and take care of everything this world has wrong with it. Those ills are caused by satan and yet many follow him rather than GOD ALMIGHTY. GOD will take care of the little ones and others who are faithful. HE sent HIS SON so that each and every one of us would have an opportunity to be in Heaven. Keep your faith and pray often. Read, study, and obey HIS WORD so that you will have the opportunity to be in heaven when that time comes. I hope to see you there. Have a great evening and a wonderful weekend!
Thanks,
Eds, Christian also.

Answer 3

God did not allow it to happen, that would be misplaced blame. I have not heard of the story but accidents do happen and the worst things happen to the most innocent and kindest people. Hopefully people can learns from their mistakes and other kids won't be affected again. I know it sounds kind of cold from me, but I have no answers, the worlds a messed up place sometimes. Moral of the stroy is that life is short, appreciate it because it will end. Consider yourself lucky if you have health and can escape misfortune.

Answer 4

.
God does not cause any harm to come upon any of his creations. The Bible tells us that Satan and his Demons were thrown out of the heavens, they are here among us misleading us and causing great pain to mankind

Rev.12:9 "So down the great dragon was hurled, the original serpent, the one called Devil and Satan, who is misleading the entire inhabited earth; he was hurled down to the earth, and his angels were hurled down with him.

The Bible foretold conditions that would occur in the last days . 2Tim. 3:1-5 also read Luke 21:11

Most people do not understand why God permits wickedness and so blame him for al the bad things that take place. They do not realize that man's inclination toward badness is not because of God's will but because of the sin of Adam. (Rom 5:12) They may be unaware of the existence of Satan the devil and of his influence on world affairs, so they ascribe to God the vile things perpetrated by Satan.

God has made us all a promise that he will do away with all the wickedness that is here on earth to day.

Rev 21:4

He had made us a promise that the meek shall inherited the earth

Pslm.37:8-11

The Bible's promises of renewed health, resurrection from the dead, and so forth, are fortified by the record of miracles performed by Jesus Christ. These are not fables. (read the Gospel accounts and see the evidence that they bear al the marks of historical authenticity.

I do enocurage you to continue to read your Bible, I also encourage you to speak with Jehovah's Witness in your area, they can answer all of your question from the Bible.

Answer 5

I truly don't know and wonder myself

I have had loss in my life and can't explain why things happen, yet I know we appreciate life much more once it is gone...it somehow makes this impression of how important we each are and mark we make on others lives. It is so hard and tragic, yet, the only thing I can hope is that we come out stronger. Though, I know in some instances people don't.

Answer 6

Just because God chooses not to heal one person, and chooses to heal another person, Does that mean He doesn't heal people? He is still our healer, even if He chooses not to do so. After all He is sovereign and can do as He sees fit.

We are not always going to understand everything that God does. Nor can we. His thoughts are higher than our thoughts, and His actions are higher than our actions. Just keep trusting Him, even when or better said, especially when we don't understand.

Answer 7

then understand this brainstem - the DOCTORS and NURSES allowed it. they all had a choice didn't they? free will you'd say? is it God's fault now that they chose to be a bunch of numnut brainstems? Of course you can't understand - you aren't in use of your full potential.

this is the problem today. society takes no responsibility for their own actions. It's much easier to say it was God or the Devil...please.....join the cowards and start cowering.

Answer 8

This is nature: nature of man who is limited and therefore makes mistakes, nature in itself which is not perfect. God has nothing to do with it.

Answer 9

God lets things happen. He knows why. All we do is follow him, and keep beliving.

Answer 10

Because he has a sick, perverted, demented, sadistic and drug-induced, drunken obsessed sense of humor.
