.. where is god? why isnt he stopping poverty, wars, illnesses? is hes there and he has the power.. why just watch?
This world is not forever and what happens here only tests our faith and strength.
Everlasting is the Hereafter and that is what this world is preparing us for...
I don't buy that video at all. firmbeliver has touched on part of it. The world will end some day. Every day is the end of the world for many. When their end comes, it will be a bad day for non believers and the unrepentant. False teachers will not do well.
The biggest thing is that God chose to give us free will. Just as Satan was free to rebel against God, so are all. When we ignore God, we sin in ways that hurt both our selves and others. The more earthly power we have, the more we can hurt. Some believe and save themselves by repenting and accepting God's grace. Others will get what we all deserve.
man cannot blame all of the world's ill's on GOD - man has to (and eventually will be forced to) take responsibility for what it does (and fails to do) - man has enough food to fill EVERY stomach on the planet and yet people still die of starvation - is THIS god's fault? man the the where-with-all to ensure EVERYONE on this planet has a warm bed, and a roof over their had, and yet we still have homeless people - is THIS god's fault? i could go on and on, but you get the idea - God has enough problems to deal with, without our creating more - why doesn't man deal with his issues, and let god deal with the rest - after all, we're here to serve god, not the other way around!
If God where to involve himself in everyday life than we wouldall know he existed and the world would be heaven, no suffering, no pain, no wars, etc. This lifemay very well be our "test" in which, if passed, we enter Heaven. Again, if God took allevil away there would be no point to this life.
Although I do beleive God works in all our lives on a daily basis, just not in the same dramatic way some think he should. So the everyday life of human is touched everyday by God and so too world events.
