Even to the time of noah may mga tao ng matitigas ang ulo at puso na iniignore ang katotohanang ito at ang Salita ng Diyos.
agad silang dumidipende sa sarili nilang haka haka at paniniwala.
pero ang totoo even to the time of israel and early Christians na prove na ito
everythings happen because there is root cause and God is not unfair dahil binigay Niya lahat ng pagkakataon para magsisi ang tao sa lahat ng paraan.
bakit ako bumalik? pinabalik ako ng Diyos dahil may kalooban pa Siya sa akin dito and nothing will change my mind kahit personal attacks or even to death

Question: "Why does God allow natural disasters, i.e. earthquakes, hurricanes, and tsunamis?"
Answer: Why does God allow earthquakes, tornados, hurricanes, tsunamis, typhoons, cyclones, mudslides, and other natural disasters? Tragedies such as Hurricane Katrina in 2005, the 2008 cyclone in Myanmar, the 2010 earthquake in Haiti, and the 2011 earthquake/tsunami near Japan cause many people to question God’s goodness. It is distressing that natural disasters are often termed “acts of God” while no “credit” is given to God for years, decades, or even centuries of peaceful weather. God created the whole universe and the laws of nature (Genesis 1:1). Most natural disasters are a result of these laws at work. Hurricanes, typhoons, and tornados are the results of divergent weather patterns colliding. Earthquakes are the result of the earth’s plate structure shifting. A tsunami is caused by an underwater earthquake.
The Bible proclaims that Jesus Christ holds all of nature together (Colossians 1:16-17). Could God prevent natural disasters? Absolutely! Does God sometimes influence the weather? Yes, as we see in Deuteronomy 11:17 and James 5:17. Numbers 16:30-34 shows us that God sometimes causes natural disasters as a judgment against sin. The book of Revelation describes many events which could definitely be described as natural disasters (Revelation chapters 6, 8, and 16). Is every natural disaster a punishment from God? Absolutely not.
In much the same way that God allows evil people to commit evil acts, God allows the earth to reflect the consequences sin has had on creation. Romans 8:19-21 tells us, “The creation waits in eager expectation for the sons of God to be revealed. For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the glorious freedom of the children of God.” The fall of humanity into sin had effects on everything, including the world we inhabit. Everything in creation is subject to “frustration” and “decay.” Sin is the ultimate cause of natural disasters just as it is the cause of death, disease, and suffering.
We can understand why natural disasters occur. What we do not understand is why God allows them to occur. Why did God allow the tsunami to kill over 225,000 people in Asia? Why did God allow Hurricane Katrina to destroy the homes of thousands of people? For one thing, such events shake our confidence in this life and force us to think about eternity. Churches are usually filled after disasters as people realize how tenuous their lives really are and how life can be taken away in an instant. What we do know is this: God is good! Many amazing miracles occurred during the course of natural disasters that prevented even greater loss of life. Natural disasters cause millions of people to reevaluate their priorities in life. Hundreds of millions of dollars in aid is sent to help the people who are suffering. Christian ministries have the opportunity to help, minister, counsel, pray, and lead people to saving faith in Christ! God can, and does, bring great good out of terrible tragedies (Romans 8:28).

When people talk of others (and what happens to others) to exemplify their beliefs.... its called hypocrisy....why? because you compare yourselves to others to make others see you are better than them. That my friend is not what the Gospel was made for. I may not know much about it, but i have read and listened much to know where i stand with this.
Tell us what YOUR RELIGIOUS belief has done good to you...that is when i will listen
P.S.
d us a favor will ya.... post your preaching on the BOXING SCENE LOUNGE.... lets see how you sum up with the best "thinkers" here in BS.... then you can go back here and preach.... then we'll believe you are what you teach....Last edited by ALAXAN_FR; 03-14-2011, 09:19 PM.

matthew 24:7-8 For nation will rise up against nation, and kingdom against kingdom(wars and rumor of wars), there will be famines and earth-quakes in various places. all these events are the beginning of birth pains.
its all coming to ahead
yes, earthquakes and disasters are acts of God, but remember God is generous, he sends rain on the just and the unjust, meaning, He blesses us even though we don't deserve it.
