Actually God is JUST- but that does not mean that life will always be fair- Just means that He will make all things work together for good- even though at the time life does seem unfair. I have experienced many things in my life that are not fair- but through the justice of God, I know that one day, He will make all things right- and in the process teaches me to trust His grace and love.

God is completely fair and just. The problem is he is so fair, he allows all of his children to make their own choices. It's called free agency. The problem is, because of some peoples choices, others suffer. But not to worry. It will all work out in the end. They will be brought to justice for their acts, as their acts will stand as a witness against them in the last day. The better question is, "Why can't people make better choices?"

Where did you ever get the idea that God is "fair" in human terms? God is graciously "unfair". If He were truly "fair", we would all burn for eternity, it is what we deserve. He is graciously "unfair" in that He chooses out some for salvation, yet passes others by. He does not give everyone an "opportunity" for salvation, He chooses, elects and selects those whom He will save by His grace, and allows all others to follow the course of their lives, and pay the ultimate penalty for their sins.

God is just and the reason why life is not fair is because we, man, out of our own choices choose to make it so.

God is just and perfect. Life is perfectly fair. We are all sinful and fall short of perfection and therefore do not deserve anything less than our current "unfair" life.

Everything happens for a reason. We don't have the right to say whether it seems fair or not. G-d always does things for a reason.

Dear Friend,
God is not in the "fairness" business. He is in the "righteousness" business. God is a righteous God. Period!
Exodus 9:27 And Pharaoh sent, and called for Moses and Aaron, and said unto them, I have sinned this time: the LORD is RIGHTEOUS, and I and my people are wicked.
Psalm 7:17 "I will praise the LORD according to his RIGHTEOUSness: and will sing praise to the name of the LORD most high."
Psalm 9:8 "And he shall judge the world in RIGHTEOUSness, he shall minister judgment to the people in uprightness."
To name just a few...
Sincerely in Christ Jesus,
lostnsavd...

God gave all power and authority of the world, (realm) to Adam and to his descendants.
However when Adam rebelled against God, he unknowingly gave that rule over to Satan.
Satan, and his fallen angels are now rulers over the air of the world, Meaning this earthly realm. Satan has no love for us what so ever and for the fact alone that God does love us that Satan takes great pleasure in man's suffering and torment.
This is what Jesus delivers us from. Jesus returns the power and authority back into our hands as long as we work with Him hand in hand to effectively defeat Satan's rule over us in this lifetime and to the one to come.

Where did you get that God is fair.
People are fair and the Devil.
