Faith Answers - God & the Bible
"You can shut Him up for a fool, you can spit at Him and kill Him as a demon; or you can fall at His feet and call Him Lord and God. But let us not come up with any patronizing nonsense about His being a great human teacher. He has not left that open to us. He did not intend to." -- C. S. Lewis

The question is usually “Why do [you God, let…] bad things happen to people? It’s an accusation we bring to God, sometimes because we don’t understand, but most usually when we are experiencing an acute pain in our life. |

There on his own cross, the thief did have the opportunity to take responsibility for the consequences of his destructive habits that hurt himself and others, his sins and imperfections. The thief bowed his will to Jesus and recognized Him for who He is. |
