When tragedy strikes

Luke 13King James Version (KJV)

13 There were present at that season some that told him of the Galilaeans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices.

2 And Jesus answering said unto them, Suppose ye that these Galilaeans were sinners above all the Galilaeans, because they suffered such things?

3 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.

4 Or those eighteen, upon whom the tower in Siloam fell, and slew them, think ye that they were sinners above all men that dwelt in Jerusalem?

5 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.

6 He spake also this parable; A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came and sought fruit thereon, and found none.

7 Then said he unto the dresser of his vineyard, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down; why cumbereth it the ground?

8 And he answering said unto him, Lord, let it alone this year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung it:

9 And if it bear fruit, well: and if not, then after that thou shalt cut it down.

No fruit here. A lot of dung though.

You know you're talking about the word of God here right? There's fruit in every part of the word of God.

Sounds like it's time to cut down the spirituality forum and throw it in the fire.

The thing is in life we will share in the good and bad. We should not think God loves us because of good things that are going on, any more than He hates us if bad things are going on. He loves us period no matter what our lives look like.

I was/am talking about the spirituality forum. Did you read my post too hastily?

There see, I knew if I waited long enough you'd say something I agree with.
