Is God "Fair" to Us?
Since the theme of this group is "all is fair in LOVE and WAR", I think it is a good idea to start with "Numero Uno", our Father Himself. We do not like any of the hell conditions we experience in our daily lives. We did not ask to be born to our earthly parents, and we certainly did not want and do not appreciate being born in a pit full of invisible snakes, who are tricky and dominating. Yet Father did this to His innocent babies. We do not like this, and many will tell you boldly, "This is not fair"! How many of you know the song, "Fairest Lord Jesus"? We attribute and credit Jesus with "fair love" because of his work on behalf of all of us without hesitation. But many have cursed the Father "because He is omnipotent and controls everything" in our lives including how much evil we experience. He is the one who GAVE the saints and humanity all over the world into the hands and power of the devil, Revelation 13:4-7. (This is the same thing as giving Israel over to Egypt for captivity for 400 years). Mankind has had the hell beaten into us by the powers of darkness. All this was perfectly understood by the Spirit, who announced a "Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea, because the devil is come down unto you and he knows that he has a short time" to exist, Revelation 12:11-12.
Let us get to the point very quickly. This life is an educational "exercise" with the dark-side so that we will learn to appreciate light, Ecclesiastes 1:13. This is what the Spirit taught Paul:
Romans 8:18. For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. 19. For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God. 20. For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope, 21. Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.
Father is a Great Teacher and He decided to raise His Family by training them to refuse the evil and to choose the good (sometimes painfully) using "two ways", which He set before ALL of us. Adam and Eve were merely the first of billions to be so "exercised". But as Paul wrote, they were also "delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God" in Heaven. Down here the PLAN is to have all children learn by
(1) comparison and contrast or good VS evil, and also
(2) by precept (religious law) and example (the perfect example is Jesus himself).
You ought to be able to catch my drift now. What we are really getting at is this: "Is it fair for the Teacher to choose this approach to train His sons and daughter in perfect behavior"? You and I know death has no sting, Hosea 13:14, Ecclesiastes 12:7, Luke 20:37-39, Revelation 6:9-11. Most men cannot comprehend what is on the UP side of the 5th Seal. Because they are uninformed, this lack of perfect understanding causes them to be angry with God for turning innocent infants over to wild beasts in a far away pit. Now let us deal with some documents
that explain Father's extraordinary Wisdom. We have all come to mental conclusions about God for doing all this. Some of us might not want to admit it or even to think about it now that I am into
this subject. But there is no thought that we can hide from God. He already knows what you think as well as what you are afraid to think. Here are some documents which get right to what the Teacher has been doing:

These documents should help you understand our Father's superior reasoning and logic. I hope you will develop a mature appreciation for His skill. Down here men are frightened because they just don't get it about what they really are, Hebrews 2:6-7,14-15. This life is not the beginning and the end of everything. We began at the very beginning before Adam was sent down in the flesh. God told us He created us "in His image and after His likeness", but men just DO NOT comprehend the depth of what that means. Our spirits are eternal, immortal, and cannot perish! They clay envelope dies but so what? Flesh and blood never could inherit the kingdom of heaven. Even so weak men want to cling to it, because that is all they know. They want it somehow to
survive. However the flesh was deliberately made weak, and it shrivels up and breaks down as more time passes. It could not survive for thousand and thousand of years. Who wants to be in
stooped bodies with arthritic joints, no teeth, failed hearing, sight, taste and smell? God let all this happen to us so we would hope for and even beg Him for a change. If He allowed most of us to
remain in youth and vigor, we would want to stay on earth and not leave it. Old age and decrepit bodies also prevent men from having the strength and power to continue committing certain sins. A violent man cannot commit violence when he is too sick to stand up. A fornicator cannot do his thing when he is stooped and cannot walk. A mean person cannot be very mean when he needs someone to feed him, and so it goes. So go ahead and examine what the Spirit explained about
our Father's reasoning. Armed with is light, you will be able to inform our unenlightened brethren, who have a different opinion, that our Father is also "fair", not just the Lord Jesus only! Amen?
