Is the Lord responsible for people starving in Africa?

[huajiro]

We're not talking about the bible, we're talking about God. because God created Sin, I'd say he is responsible. What does Jesus Christ have to say about that?

Isn't the "Bible" supposedly the "word of God"?

 

[Ceridwen018]

God created evil. Sin was made by a transgression of a law. A law given by God while in fellowship with man. They were both responsible but I suppose its all perspective. Since God is God one could suggest that since he did not stop the transgression God is responsible. It's impossible to know until the end because the end is better then the beginning.

true blood, evil is sin. They are sysnonymous. If no one sinned, there would be no evil. Likewise, if no one did evil things, there would be no sin.

if there were no evil, we cannot appriciate good. if there were no good, we cannot fear evil. duality. get used to it.

Your question has as much sense as the question Why did God who created all things not have enough power to orchestrate a better place of birth for His Son, than in a bug infested stable for farm animals?

In the answer to the above lies the answer for poverty everythere...that anywhere being in the U.S.A. Africa or Western Europe; developed or under developed countries, not withstanding.

Noah and his sons were told to "get their groove on" to populate the planet. No one ever said to stop after we started killing each other, did they?

Nope nobody said to stop.

This is because the Church wants more followers, that is why they don't want homosexual marriages.

The True church doesn't care if a homosexual is married or not.

The misinterpretation of the "Bible" has caused many "sins".

amen

The "Bible" doesn't condemn a lot of things it should about what people do today, such as its own misuse for personal gain.

people misuse the bible all the time and it should be stopped.

What she would want is simply for someone to give her the nourishment she needs and show kindness and compassion to her through their actions.

Very true. Instead of wasting time accusing God of things, the entire world could solve alot of problems by just showing a little kindness and compassion on others in dire need. It isn't a God issue and it isn't a science issue but more of an issue of the human heart.

Truth. The only marriage we should be overly concerned with is the marriage between Jesus Christ and the called out of Israel. Talk about a same sex marriage! This marriage actually will consist of multiple males and females marrying one man, Jesus Christ.

Um, evil might be sin but is sin then really evil? I think not. In the bible, sin was made by breaking a law. Very simple. If you run a stop sign you break the law. This is sin. Not evil. Now remove the stop sign, the law, and there is no sin, transgression of a law. Would evil still exist? Yes because evil is not the same as sin.
