EXCERPTS FROM THE BOOK: The question people ask is that if God is in control of the Universe, why are there so much chaos in the world? Why so much suffering and pain?The chaos, pain, sufferings and death are man made and God has nothing to do with them than to ensure that man's wickedness does not disrupt the equilibrium of the Universe which He created for the collective good of all. The chaos are as a result of man's failure to walk with God in righteousness and allow Him guide his feet to peace. God gave man a choice - to choose between life and death and man chose death by committing evil continually and walking away from the life of peace and harmony which he can only have in God. His pride, greed and covetousness drives him to monstrous outcomes. The Scripture says that evil shall slay the wicked and the wicked is snared in the works of their hands (Psalm 34:21, 19:16). The wickedness of the wicked shall be upon them. Therefore these sufferings exist in part for the wicked to reap what they have sown. They sow evil; they reap same evil. We wonder what is happening to our earth environment. We hear about climate change - the Ozone depletion and Ozone hole and other unexpected natural catastrophes brought about by the activities of mankind. Today, Nations go overboard to compete with one another and waste enormous resources on Space Programs, Nuclear and Chemical weapons, while our immediate environment weeps for attention and care. There are pollution everywhere. Soon, the rich will plan their vacations to Space and probably wish, one day, to relocate there permanently to escape the pollution and enjoy " life":, all at the expense of our immediate environment and its poor inhabitants. We celebrate ostentatious living, ill-gotten wealth, and power, ostracism, racism, inequality to mention but a few and close our eyes and ears to the plight of the poor. There are pollution from idols set up in our hearts and evil works everywhere which put stumbling blocks in our face. The society, in ignorance gives its consent and approves of these doings with its members reveling in the ego of being the richest and most powerful nation or among the clique of the richest persons in the world. Some who oppose it do so not necessarily for godly purposes but for the sake of party affiliations or allegiance to a particular clique or group to the detriment of the others. They affiliate themselves only where it will benefit them, having men's persons in admiration because of advantage. The few good ones tend to lose their voices in a society where there is no principled leadership and social cohesion. These atrocities go on from generation to generation and the woes continue to occur from generation to generation. We ask, where is God? Why should God allow these to happen? Man has a duty of care to earth environment which God handed over to us as our abode. As we lay our bed, so we shall lie on it. Our God continues to ensure that man's inhumanity to man and to the environment does not destroy the collective good of all and the overall system He has put in place.The Lord said, woe unto you for you build the sepulchers of the Prophets and your fathers killed them. Truly you bear witness that you allow the deeds of your fathers for they indeed killed them and you build their sepulchers. Therefore, also said the wisdom of God, I will send them Prophets and Apostles and some of them they shall slay and persecute that the blood of all the Prophets which was shed from the foundation of the world may be required of this generation. So, when we allow the atrocities of others either by encouragement, outright support, utterances, actions, even thoughts, no matter how subtle these may be, we will partake in the consequences of such atrocities. We will be held accountable as well. Even when we are neutral in situations of injustice, we have chosen the side of the oppressor and will pay for our lukewarmness. it pays ------
