WHEN GOD STRIKES BACK
=========================
WE HAVE LONG BECOME ACCUSTOMED TO THE SILENCE OF GOD FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIME WHEN INJUSTICES AND CRUELTIES OF ALL KINDS GO ON AROUND US ALL THE TIME. AND WE COME TO THE CONCLUSION THAT EITHER THERE IS NO GOD OR ELSE HE DOES NOT CARE.
BUT THEN LOOKING BACK AT HISTORY WE SEE THAT THERE IS AN OVER-RIDING VICTORY OF GOOD OVER EVIL ALL THROUGHOUT THE AGES... EVIL KINGS AND EMPIRES HAVE PERISHED AFTER SOME TIME, AND THEY HAVE ALWAYS BEEN REPLACED BY SOMETHING GOOD.,

BUT THEN LOOKING BACK AT HISTORY WE SEE THAT THERE IS AN OVER-RIDING VICTORY OF GOOD OVER EVIL ALL THROUGHOUT THE AGES... EVIL KINGS AND EMPIRES HAVE PERISHED AFTER SOME TIME, AND THEY HAVE ALWAYS BEEN REPLACED BY SOMETHING GOOD.,
THE OVER-RIDING FACTOR OF THE VICTORY OF GOOD OVER EVIL THROUGHOUT THE
AGES SHOWS THAT GOD IS NOT SILENT AFTER ALL, AND HE DOES STRIKE BACK TO
RESTORE RIGHTEOUSNESS IN THE WORLD.
HOWEVER HE APPEARS TO BE SILENT FOR INDIVIDUAL INJUSTICES. BUT IS THAT REALLY SO?
IF A KING WERE TO LEAVE HIS THRONE AND RUN INTO THE STREETS AFTER A BEGGAR TO STRIKE HIM --WOULD THAT NOT BE BENEATH HIS MAGNIFICENCE?
NO. THERE IS THE POLICE OF THE KING.
AND GOD TOO HAS HIS POLICE-- IT IS THE LAW OF KARMA, WHICH SIMPLY SAYS:
"YOU SHALL REAP WHAT YOU SOW!".
AND THE LAW OF KARMA GETS YOU WITH UNERRING ACCURACY, NO MATTER HOW LONG IT MAY TAKE.,, AND USUALLY IT IS WITHIN THIS LIFETIME.
TAKE THE EXAMPLE OF A MAN WHO THROWS A STONE UPWARDS IN THE AIR. THE GREATER THE FORCE WITH WHICH HE HURLS THE STONE THE HIGHER UP IT GOES.. AND THE LONGER IT TAKES TO COME DOWN.
DURING THIS TIME, THE MAN THINKS:
"HA ! I HAVE THROWN THE STONE UPWARDS AND IT HAS GONE. NOTHING HAPPENED TO ME!"
BUT THE HIGHER UP THE STONE FLIES, THE GREATER THE FORCE WITH WHICH IT RETURNS AND FALLS ON THE HEAD OF THE MAN WHO THREW IT.
SO WHEN A MAN THINKS HE HAS GOTTEN AWAY WITH A HEINOUS EVIL ACT AND HE IS NEVER GOING TO BE PUNISHED, HE FINDS THAT THE EVIL ACT RETURNS AND FALLS BACK UPON HIM WITH GREAT SHATTERING FORCE.
EITHER HE IS CAUGHT AND PUNISHED BY THE LAW, OR ELSE HE IS STRICKEN BY A DANGEROUS DISEASE WHICH KILLS HIM SLOWLY AND TORTUROUSLY, OR HE LOSES HIS BUSINESS AND WEALTH AND HIS LOVED ONES, AND CRIES LIKE HE HAD MADE OTHERS WEEP.
AND GOD STILL HAS THE OPTION OF SENDING HIS SOUL TO HELL, IF THE PUNISHMENT ON EARTH IS NOT ENOUGH.
GOD WARNS YOU TIME AND AGAIN THAT WHAT YOU ARE DOING IS WRONG-- AND HE IS INSIDE YOU AS YOUR CONSCIENCE WHERE HIS LAWS ARE WRITTEN DOWN. IF YOU DISOBEY YOUR CONSCIENCE YOU ARE HIT BY THE INEVITABLE CONSEQUENCES.
THIS IS GOD STRIKING BACK.
