A Response to the Charge of a Senator of Nebraska against God

6 MIN READ

Recent news broadcasted globally through international News Channels and the internet, highlighted, among others, the filing of a law suit against God by the longest-serving state senator of Nebraska, Ernie Chambers, seeking for an injunction that God stop “fearsome floods, horrendous hurricanes, terrifying tornadoes, and the likes.”

Another is an infamous comment of a not-so-good looking actress, Kathy Griffin (Pardon me. I do not want her make or her make-up) that the Emmy Award she won is now her God; and Jesus has “nothing to do with it” and the malicious, unbecoming-of-a-lady-comment, “Suck it, Jesus!”

These “undevelopments” are apparent fulfillment of the powerful biblical prophesies that say:

(Romans 1:30) Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents…

(2 Timothy 3:1-5) This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

Fools do not believe in God.

(Psalms 53:1) The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. Corrupt are they, and have done abominable iniquity: there is none that doeth good.

But there are those who are worse than fools: The prince of fools. Those ingrates that pretend to believe in God and at the same time charge Him with stupid allegations.

The February 2000 case of US$ 4.2 trillion in punitive and compensatory damages filed by Marvin Sachs, a Manhattan attorney, representing his clients — alleged Israelites, against God, filed in New York Southern District court, is very much the same.

These people can not say that they do not believe in God because they will be more than fools if they are taking an action against somebody who does not exist. The action they have taken betrays their belief and displays their being nonsensical and feeble-mindedness.

(Romans 14:22) Hast thou faith? have it to thyself before God. Happy is he that condemneth not himself in that thing which he alloweth.

In whichever angle you see these “undevelopments”; I regard these as a clear manifestation of the power of God’s word.

(Matthew 24:35) Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.

Prophesies in the Bible were written, so that we may believe that it was God who said them before they happen.

(John 13:19) Now I tell you before it come, that, when it is come to pass, ye may believe that I amhe.

Others were angered by these mishaps — even some of my colleagues, but I pity these people, most especially the poor Senator of Nebraska. A senator or any lawmaker must have a vast knowledge of laws and order. A law carries with it rules, regulations, and penalties for the violator. A good lawmaker must understand that not everybody will obey the law that he is making. There is a one hundred percent possibility that such a law may be broken by an offender, to which the penalty and the consequences of the offense will apply.

Nature has its laws, ordained by God.God has given laws to mankind since its pristine history — laws He printed in the hearts and minds of the human family.

(Romans 2:14-15) For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves: Which show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another…

To establish these laws among societies of men, God caused it to be written with statutes and judgments.

(Malachi 4:4) Remember ye the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, with the statutes and judgments.

(Deuteronomy 4:13) And he declared unto you his covenant, which he commanded you to perform, even ten commandments; and he wrote them upon two tables of stone.

The penalties of breaking His sacred laws go with stern warnings to show his concern for the good of human society.

(Deuteronomy 28:15) But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command thee this day; that all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee…

Natural calamities are the consequences that mankind will reap in utter disregard for God’s laws.

The poor Manhattan Attorney, Marvin Sachs, recklessly accused God of breaking or not keeping His covenant with the people of Israel, but have not considered the truth and reality that the first ones who broke the covenant are his clients, the alleged Israelites. He is not a prudent lawyer worthy of coming to court because he did not report to the court the whole truth and nothing but the truth. The records in the Bible from where he copied the original covenant between God and Israel, which he used as basis of his suit, tells us in so many verses that the Israelites broke the covenant.

(Hebrews 8:8) For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah: Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord.

The case filed by the Manhattan attorney is a mockery of justice and displays his utter ignorance of law and court procedures. How, in your proper mind, can you sue someone using a covenant or a law, which is already obsolete?

(Hosea 6:7) But they like Adam have transgressed the covenant: there have they dealt treacherously against me. ASV

Thus, the consequences of their sins and transgressions:

(Jeremiah 23:19) Behold, the storm of the LORD! Wrath has gone forth, a whirling tempest; it will burst upon the head of the wicked. RSV

(Jeremiah 25:32-33) Thus saith the LORD of hosts, Behold, evil shall go forth from nation to nation, and a great whirlwind shall be raised up from the coasts of the earth. And the slain of the LORD shall be at that day from one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth: they shall not be lamented, neither gathered, nor buried; they shall be dung upon the ground.

The action of the poor senator of suing God, because of the penalties being imposed on law breakers must boomerang to him. Anybody who suffers the penalty imposed by the senator on any bill or law that he made (if ever there is one) gives the offender the right to sue him in court; after all, he said that “the court must be opened for anybody to sue anybody.” If anybody will say that this is foolish, then the senator is the prince of fools.

Have not the senator think of suing President Harry S. Truman for ordering the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, causing the death and agony of countless innocents who have nothing to do or to say about World War II?

When God punished the world of sinners during the time of Noah, innocent children perished with their guilty parents. Perhaps, somebody will say “why the children?” The death of innocent children is God’s gracious way of taking them away from the evils of this world. They will be comforted in heaven.

(Matthew 19:14) But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.

You must not even think of these little children going to limbo; after all, after almost two millennia of deceiving people about the perils of limbo, the present pope of the Roman Catholic Church said that there is no limbo.

Why did not the poor senator argue against or in favor of President Truman of not sparing the innocent children of Hiroshima and Nagasaki? Perhaps, (if I have to borrow the white brains of the senator), I would have suggested to President Truman to send an advance party and take out of those cities all the innocent people because we are going to drop a bomb to kill all of the guilty individuals (the Japanese knowing the plan because of intensive spying networks), will make a reversal of what had happened; and the poor senator will not be a senator now to sue God.

Do you agree?

I pray for the enlightenment of the poor senator; and of the poor actress; and the poor attorney of the poor alleged Israelites.

Sincerely,

EFS
