Could God have prevented Hitler from causing so much suffering and death of innocent people?

Answer 1

Sure.
He was watching porn and forgot to check on Earth.

Answer 2

Hi there,
I am Christian just to clarify that.
Yep, sure enough: God could have stopped
it in a flash, so now the question might follow: "WHY THE HECK DIDN'T HE??".
Thats answered with ease if you know and understand the manuscripts of your Bible.

Most people understand that at some point their Bible says that Satan rebelled, right?
He wanted the throne of Christ, and a third of the people followed Satan.
What most people DO NOT understand is
that when Satan rebelled, it started a great war. We were all there, as we were already souls created by God.
That war is why we are here in the flesh today. A third of our people did follow Satan, and then a large portion of the people stayed neutral - they didn't really care as long as it didn't affect them. And then there was another group: those who stayed on Gods side loyally, and Satan was defeated. At that point, God could have just killed those who followed Satan, but quite frankly, God was not all too happy with those who stayed neutral, either. So God decreed to destroy that AGE that was,
not the Earth, not the terrafirma, only the AGE, and to bring in a second Earth age, where each soul would come thru one time born of woman with all memory erased, to make an ultimate decision of who they would choose to follow. In order that the plan could work, a couple of things had to hold true:
First, and this will answer your question: Each soul must have complete free will to make decisions in their personal lives WITHOUT THE INTERFERENCE OF GOD, PERIOD. God agreed and promised not to interfere in the individual life.
Just to finish the explanation, also there is not much use in choosing between good and good, so we needed a comparitor.
This is why, although Satan was judged and condemned to perish, he is still around: He is our comparitor.
So here we are. Each and every day that God has to keep his promise of absolute no interference, he not only cries but also
his vengence and anger build and build.

When Christ returns, this Earth Age will also come to a screeching halt. The final of the three Earth ages will be for eternity. This flesh age will weed out all those who would not live in harmony come the eternal age.
All that offends will go. When you hear people say they wish to "convert" others to
Christianity, they are doing wrong. Planting a seed is one thing, but we want each soul
to show their true colors, that of their heart.
If someone is a bad person, let them show it for what it is: this will make the weeding out efficient and timely for the Angels.
Let the tares grow along with the wheat;
they will be harvested out and thrown into the fire; then we can go back to peace.
That is why God does not interfere; he promised he wouldn't.
Thats not to say they won't get exactly whats coming to them who think they are getting away with something: they aren't.
Every single thing each soul does and says is being recorded for "court". Nothing is
missed. This should open the ears and eyes of those who think they are beyond
the law of God.

Answer 3

If, as many Christians claim, all things happen according to God's will, then Hitler caused nothing, he was simply the instrument of God, like a hurricane, or a cancerous cell, and in no way to blame. If you believe in free will, then God has no power to prevent anything we do, but is merely a passive spectator, and we must all, therefore, accept total responsibility for our actions and the consequences thereof. God's will or our own, you can't have it both ways.

Answer 4

Absolutely. He could have prevented a number of instances of suffering and death of innocent people. But have you ever considered that it might be His will that those people died at that point in time?

Answer 5

No, He could not have. God created human beings with free will and moral capacity. Along with those godlike qualities comes total responsibility for all moral decisions made with free will. If God interfered with such decisions by human beings - or with the results of such decisions, free will would be meaningless. "You have the power to choose between good and evil, but whenever you choose evil I'll jump in and make sure nobody gets hurt" would mean that we don't really have free will or moral capacity, and that we are just another species of animal, albeit a particularly intelligent species.

Answer 6

Another piece of proof that he doesn't exist. Where was he during Hitler's terror? Bermuda? Where was he the morning of 9/11? Dunkin' Donuts? If this so-called all knowing and benevolent god existed at all, wouldn't either of those times and a million other times of catastrophes been a great time to exercise his power and benevolence?

Answer 7

Hitler was actually fulfilling a biblical prophecy indirectly. I'm not saying what Hitler did was right, but it lead to the recreation of Israel as prophesied in the bible.. Daniel i believe?

Answer 8

No, because Hitler was doing God's work. You must never have actually read the bible.

Answer 9

yes, there is no knowing why he did not but, then again he could have stopped the slaughter of the Christians by the Jews and Romans too but he didn't. We will never know until we get to Heaven why he did or did not do somethings but, I trust in him.

Answer 10

yes but he gave us the power to do it. First he had to be elected. he won by one vote. If one person would have voted against him a million wouldn't have died. When he was persecuting the jews The people could have said no but they chose to do what everyone else did

Answer 11

Wasn't it primarily Christains (plus Jews, Buddhists, Native American Sprituals, even Muslims) who took this SOB down?

God was in each Christain soilder who fought against him. God gives free will; and he had to work overtime to balance out the bad in this Evil Man; BTW, we still need to pray 4 this evil man.
