This is
a question often asked by people who don’t believe in God. I have been asked
this question many times in the past. The answer is quite simple. If you want to know who
is responsible for the problems we have in this world just look in the mirror.
God put
man in a beautiful garden. He was to live in this garden forever. There would
be no death, war, crime or privation. But man
decided he wanted to be God. “For God knows that the day you eat of it your
eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.” Gen. 3:5
This has
been man’s quest ever since. People say man is God or
every man has God inside him. This is
totally false.
The
Earth was cursed because of man’s sin. Man, who was meant to live forever, died
because of his sin. “Cursed is the ground for your sake; In toil you shall eat
of it all the days of your life. Both thorns and thistles it shall bring forth
for you, and you shall eat the herb of the field. In sweat of your face you
shall eat bread till you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken;
for dust you are, and to dust you shall return.” Gen. 3: 17-19
Man
doesn’t want to blame the ones who are guilty of all the problems, so he tries to
blame God. Look in the mirror and you will find why the Earth is not a perfect
place to live.
Remember
this-man was placed in a perfect environment. He was brilliant and had
everything he needed or wanted, but because he thought he wanted to be god,
everything changed. Man, and man alone, is responsible for the Earth we live on
today.
