God is good, the devil is bad (and a defeated foe). Simple? Not for many in the church. Though it may seem like common sense, it's often a perspective that is warped by repetitive garbage that we hear, see, and experience. Have you ever sung, "You give and take away," on a Sunday morning? The New Living Translation says that Job takes back everything he said (Job 42:5-6), including the line responsible for the bridge of that song. John the Baptist made an accurate claim of Jesus taking away: “Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!" (John 1:29, NIV) Jesus never blessed a storm. He never turned someone away from receiving healing. He didn't teach people a lesson by making them sick. Enough with the blame game! Detox, watch, and share:
