I may have posted too quickly without thinking. I was just thinking out loud that God has every reason to punish us. yun lang po yun. hehehe

Iba iba shempre ang prayers. Man's instinct is to pray for these things to pass. Shempre takot. Wether or not they return to their old lives is none of our business. That's between them and God. But prayers are prayers and it still counts.

Of course He's not a punishing God. He is JUST. But He is also GOD. And what i meant of "punishment" when i posted is to have the world end which in some case for others is punishment in itself. But if we have nothing to worry about then having the end of the world is nothing but a way for us to be in the REAL LIFE we're meant to live; to be in the REAL kingdom where we're meant to be. It's subjective depending kung anong interpretation para saten. But i get the point, the word "punish" might not be the correct word to use here. oops mah bad. Moving on, true that God never punishes men directly and having bad things happen to you is by your own doing. I agree to that one. It's just simply a bad choice made from the free will that has been given to us.
