"Once you have apprehended, with understanding this profound truth (that God is not the author of bad things) - Once you visualize that God operates His will in you and through you - Once you understand that satan operates in and through those without Christ - Events like that on 911 reveal the battle for the souls of mankind, fought here on earth. It's not a pretty picture.
The truth: God allows evil to operate on earth; to thwart, to maim, to kill and destroy.
- You are not puppet on a string.
- You are not forced to obey God.
- You are not clones without self-awareness.
If you think that God should have stopped the actions of the terrorist or other terrible events in your life, then you must also think that God should stop you from making or having your choices of love and kindness.
God will put an end to evil, but not yet. Freewill serves both good and evil. God's foreknowledge knows the actions of mankind, both the good and the evil, but God will not breach the right of one to protect the right of another, for God is no respecter of persons."
