That might be hard for some to comprehend when their loved one who just said a prayer for safety and Gods hand of protection before they left the house, was killed by a stray bullet or a head-on collision
Sin comes from people, driving or acting recklessly or worse

Not God's fault

To claim otherwise would allow sinners to "disprove" God and the Bible by their own rebellious acts of sinning

John 19:28-30 ?
Hello Eric.
Thanks for bringing that up.

Jesus used the the Greek word #5055

Strong's Concordance with Hebrew and Greek Lexicon

5055. teleo tel-eh'-o from 5056;
to end, i.e. complete, execute, conclude, discharge (a debt):--accomplish, make an end, expire, fill up, finish, go over, pay, perform.

John 19
28 After this Jesus, knowing that already all has been finished<5055>, that may be being perfected the scripture, He is saying "I am thirsting".
30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, He said "it hath been finished<5055>" and reclining the head, gives up the spirit.
====================
It is used in 8 verses of Revelation, 2 of those concerning the final "end".....

Rev 10:7
but in the days of the voice of the seventh Messenger, when he may be about to be trumpeting, also is finished<5055> the mystery of the God, as He did declare to His own servants, to the prophets.
Rev 15:1
And I saw another sign in the heaven, great and wonderful, seven Messengers having the seven last plagues/blows, that in them is finished<5055> the fury of the God,
================================
The Olivet Discourse uses a different form of the Greek word, #5056, for the "End" and uses the Greek word #1096 for "become"

5056. telos from a primary tello
(to set out for a definite point or goal); properly, the point aimed at as a limit, i.e. (by implication) the conclusion of an act or state (termination (literally, figuratively or indefinitely)
1096. ginomai a prolongation and middle voice form of a primary verb;
to cause to be ("gen"-erate), i.e. (reflexively) to become (come into being), used with great latitude (literal, figurative, intensive, etc.)...................

Matthew 24, Mark 13 and Luke's Temple/Jerusalem Discourses harmonized

Matthew 24:
3 Yet of Him sitting on the Mount of the Olives, the Disciples came toward to Him according to own saying "be telling to us! when shall these be? and what the sign of Thy parousia<3952> and full-end<4930-5055> of the Age?
6 “Yet ye shall be being about to be hearing battles and hearings of battles, be seeing! be not be being troubled<2360>, for is binding to be becoming<1096>, but not as yet the End<5056>

Mark 13
:
4 Tell us! when these shall be? and what the sign whenever may be being about<3195> all these to be fully concluded<4931>.
7 “Yet whenever ye should be hearing battles and hearings of battles, be seeing! be not be being troubled for is binding to be becoming<1096>, but not as yet the End<5056>

Luke 21
:
7 They inquire yet of Him saying “Teacher! when then shall these be? And what the sign whenever may be being about<3195> these to be becoming<1096>?
9 “Yet whenever ye should be hearing battles and tumults<181>, no may be being frightened<4422>, for is binding these to be becoming<1096>, but not immediately the End<5056>
=============================

#1096 used in these end time verses of Revelation:

Revelation 1:1
An unveiling/revealing of Jesus Christ, which gives to Him, the GOD, to show to the bond-servants of Him, which-things is binding to be becoming<1096> In<1722> Swiftness<5034>.
Revelation 16:17
Then the seventh Messenger poured out His bowl into the air, and a loud voice came out of the Sanctuary of the heaven, from the throne, saying, It hath become!<1096>

Revelation 21:6

And He said to me, It hath become!<1096>
I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. I will give of the fountain of the water of life freely to him who thirsts.
Revelation 22:6
And said to me: "These the Words Faithful and True. And Lord, the GOD of the spirits of the holy Prophets commissions the Messenger of Him to show to the bond-servants of Him which-things is binding to be becoming<1096> in Swiftness<5034>.
