The church is going to draw much closer to God in the next 100 years if people like this man fill it's seats.

@survivorbygodshand Just wanted to add that 1 John 3:8, states that Jesus was manifest to destroy the works of the devil. If God allows all of the bad things to happen to us, then Jesus is in direct violation of God's will by coming to destroy the evil works of the devil against us.

@sirr09 God did not lose control, He gave dominion, control, of the earth to Adam, he sinned against God, submitted to the devil and gave that dominion over to him. Nothing happens that God is not aware of and knew before hand that it would happen but the Bible says that God is not willing for any to perish but that all would come to repentance, if He was in full control, everyone would be saved, but thats not the case. He gave everyone a free will.

the very defininition of dominion, the power or right of governing and conrolling, sovereign authority and God gave that dominion of everything in the earth to Adam. Yes Adam and Eve were to care for the Garden of Eden and told not to eat of the tree of knowledge but when they did they gave their dominion over to satan. Satan became the god of this world roaming about as a lion seeking whom he may devour. He is not obtaining permission from God to devour anyone.

@sirr09 Gen1:26 "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, aver the the cattle and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth." Gen !:28 The God blessed them, and God said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it: have dominion over the birds of the air, and every living thing that moves on the earth." (the power or right of governing and controlling; sovereign authority)

@militocristoviene Why would God work with the devil like that? They are enemies. The devil wants to destroy all of us, God did not give His permission to the devil, like the others have stated, the devil wanted to go after Job, he mocked God that Job served Him because of his things and the hedge around him. God stated the truth that the devil already had the power to go after him, through the fall, Adam gave it to him. He steal, kills, destoys. God gives life abundantly through Jesus!!

@sirr09 I don't think they are saying God "lost" control. I think they are saying that satan was given all authourity when Adam sinned and turned it over to the devil. God gave it all to Adam, he sinned and gave it to the devil. God was not giving His permission to the devil, He was stating a fact that the devil already had the power to do what he wanted to do to Job. Jesus came and got it back! The devil is out to destroy us, but God blesses us and His gifts are good and irrevocable.
