God does no wrong by causing or allowing things to happen to our temporal bodies and realities

Why anything God causes or allows to happen to our temporal reality is not wrong or evil but rather part of His master plan to make His people holy.

1. 1. There is nothing in this life (with the exception of our souls) that will live eternally
   2. Any suffering that comes to our bodies will come to a complete cessation someday when our bodies cease to be alive/exist in this realm
   3. God will cause or allow things to happen to our temporal reality in order to change our soul and prepare us for our eternal reality
   4. If God causes/allows cancer or illness or heart attack or any other physical ailment in order to get our attention and cause us to look to Him and let Him save and sanctify, He has done no wrong but rather the greatest good we could ever imagine (the same can be said for stillborn babies, or people born with infirmities or diseases)
   5. If God causes/allows situations that result in us losing a loved one, being bankrupt, diseased/injured or homeless, these are all temporary/temporal realities and we know that He does everything for His glory and for our redemption/holiness; as such He has done no wrong but the greatest thing ever
   6. Even when we suffer for doing evil we must understand that our suffering comes from
      1. The natural consequences of going against God’s spiritual standards
      2. The natural consequences of going against God’s created rule
      3. God’s holy judgment, plan of redemption & deliverance and  the recompense He brings for both good and evil
      4. In any case, God is justified and still good to cause us to have suffering for our own sinful things in order that He will rescue us from the wrath to come and from the darkness of sin, evil and despair
   7. The only way that God would be doing “evil” in His causing or allowing things is if He
      1. Damned a soul to hell when they had done no evil and actually had served Him all their days
      2. Did some harm to their eternal soul (how would this be possible since His perfect, loving, good and holy?)
      3. Intentionally did things to torment people (with malicious forethought) for His own pleasure of reveling in their misery and pain (and this is what the devil does, not God and any accusing God of this are blaspheming God)
   8. As such God does no evil by causing or allowing things to happen to our temporal bodies/realities
      1. Because we know His motive is holy love
      2. Because we know His character is righteous and good
      3. Because we know His end goal is His glory and our holiness
   9. It is important to state that God never causes a person to do evil or sinfully cause harm or take advantage of another person. The heart-breaking reality is that God has given us free-will and as such allows us to choose whether we will obey Him and do no harm to another, or selfishly and sinfully choose to do things that harm others. When this happens, we should never said “God caused this” or presume that God is in some way complicit regarding sinful behaviors. Instead we must be reminded that God only temporarily allows people to cause others harm and one day He will step in and finally put a stop to all oppression, abuse, manipulation, slavery, sexual aggression/abuse etc.

      So when we say that God does no wrong by causing or allowing suffering in our lives, it applies in matters of abuse too. God did not cause the abuse and He only “allowed it” insomuch as He gives us free will and temporarily allows us to sin against others, but when such travesties and tragedies do occur, we know that God is right there with the victim. We must even acknowledge that God was present not only to comfort and help the victim in the aftermath, but was even present before the sinful deed occurred and was begging and pleading with the aggressor/perpetrator to cease and desist from their wicked ways. God has allowed us all to choose righteousness or wickedness, but may we never dare to accuse God of wrong-doing or complicity in our sinful deeds simply because He gave us the gift of free will. May we always and ever remember that everything God does is always holy love and that even in moment when we presume Him to be absent or silent, He is in fact working and will always right every wrong before it is all said and done.
