Greetings everyone, I welcome you all to my blog.
It's another great day to listen to the word of God by his servant Bro Eli Soriano
The question of why God allows good and righteous people to die earlier than those who live in evil is not as difficult to answer as many think. In fact, the answer is plainly revealed in Scripture. The Bible provides clarity through the words of Isaiah 57:1, which says that the righteous perish and no one seems to consider it, while merciful people are taken away without understanding that they are being removed from the evil that is yet to come.
This verse helps us understand that when God takes the life of a righteous person, it is not an act of punishment or neglect. Rather, it is an act of divine protection. As mentioned earlier, God removes His faithful ones to shield them from future evil and from the dangerous times in which we now live.
There is no doubt that we are living in what the Holy Bible describes as perilous times. This period is marked by widespread evil, where corruption dominates and the thoughts and intentions of many people are continually inclined toward wrongdoing. These conditions confirm that we are living in an era filled with moral decay and spiritual danger.
In His mercy, God chooses to protect His people by taking them away before they are exposed to greater evil. By doing so, He ensures that they will not become participants or victims of the suffering and wickedness that lies ahead.
In conclusion, Bro. Eli helped us understand that evil is everywhere because we are living in perilous times when wickedness fills the hearts of many. God, who knows the future, lovingly removes His righteous people before such evil reaches them. Although such deaths may appear untimely to human understanding, there is no untimely death in the sight of our Creator, who governs all things with wisdom and purpose.
