Original Condition?



Many have asked why God allows, sin, death, violence, rape, crime, natural disasters, war; the list could go on and on. While God does not cause these things to happen he does allow them, but still many will ask why. Some will go all the way back to creation if God knew what was going to happen (which He did) why did He create all of this in the first place? The answer is simply to show how great He really is. Look at today’s picture, total devastation. When it comes to the original structures there are many who have the ability to take boards, windows, nails and build this neighborhood which is impressive in its self, but how impressive would it be if there were someone who could rebuild everything in this picture with all of the original pieces and restore it to its original condition. That is exactly what God does by showing grace to whoever He pleases. By showing grace and restoring a person that was destroyed beyond recognition is much more impressive than honoring a person who was always good. And as we all know mankind is far from good.
