Questions relating to Katrina.

Trying to add some humor...

Just because something is written in the bible back then doesn't mean it's true today. So how come we can PREDICT the weather if god is the one controling it? If it's god toy, then it's beyond human comphrension. How can we EXPLAIN weather (tornados and hurricans for example) if it's in god's control? How can we ANTICIPATE what he will do?

Seriously, religion is okay and all but there are limits to what you must believe in.

Don't you think that God's sovereignty extends into the fact that He set up the rules that govern nature at the time of creation, therefore He is still ultimately in control whilst still allowing His [ created ] laws to run their course ?

And the verses I provided to you ? You say that " Just because something is written in the bible back then doesn't mean it's true today " The Bible says God never changes. He's the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. He had control of the winds and the waves then, as He does today and as He will tomorrow.

God bless,

No I don't because that would just be pointless extra work for him... Especially since he had only 7 days to create the world.

Just because a passage in the bible said that he won't change doesn't mean it's true. If I tell you god just came to me and told me that he was powerless to stop katrina, would you believe me? No... And same goes for the bible. Some "men" wrote it way back and who knows what they might have been doing before writing that book!

Honestly, I say that Katrina = Gloabal Warming and you guys have a lously president who just didn't look at the warnings seriously.

I guess there's no point in arguing here...a basic truth to Christianity is believing that God's Word is true and complete. If you deny that, your faith has nothing solid to stand on.

That doesn't mean they're right. Popular opinion does not equal truth.

[sandok]

They aren't right? What makes you right by believing in it? Minority opinion does not equal truth.

It's not right because I believe in it- I believe in it becase it's ( the Bible ) right. And you are correct, minority opinion doesn't equal truth either- that's why we have to trust God and His written Word. All else will fail us.

Be blessed,

I can see there is no point in continuing our discussion since our faiths clash. You believe in God, me in mankind so let it be that.
