She will be vindicated, “if God is for us, who can be against us”!
The Germans had the words “God be with us” on their belt buckles but God did not help them in the 1st and 2nd World Wars.
Corporations and wealthy people (including many religious people) are against God and his teachings (like they really care and they don’t have any fear of God).
God must have been against us when fighting the communists in Russia 1918 and Vietnam in 1962 to 1972. Then again, it must be God’s will for us to lose to the communists in those countries and you can’t argue with God’s will.
The Devil is against us and as I have said before, he is a pretty good locksmith entering and leaving the gates of Hell anything he wants to.
G – First of all, Germans in WWI and WWII, many were only professing Christians and not fully committed to Christ.
Secondly, when Paul wrote that passage of scripture he was writing to Messianic Jews and Christians at that time, but there is still application for it today, for those who are fully committed to Christ and His teachings as well as Messianic Jews today as well.
Finally, Satan has not been confined yet to hell, he can go and come as he pleases. Scripture says that he roams around like a lion waiting to devour anyone, it will not be until Christ returns and they he will bound up in hell for 1,000 years while Christ sets up His kingdom here on earth, they he will be let loose again for a short while to deceive as many as he can, but but then be thrown into the lake of fire for all eternity.
YW, I guess we Americans were only professing Christians when we fought a draw in the Korean War and lost the Vietnam War against the “godless Communists.” We are also only professing Christians when you look at how 50% Americans are living or near living in poverty. We also only professing Christians when half of the world’s population lives on $2 a day and widespread hunger in America: http://ringoffireradio.com/2015/10/07/oreilly-says-childhood-poverty-and-hunger-is-a-myth-ashole-here-are-the-fact/
Well, the Catholic Church has been in existence for nearly 2,000 years so that is more than enough time for God to bound the Devil for the 1,000 years you talk about. If God is powerful, then why don’t he shut the gates of Hell the first time so the Devil would not have been let out the second time?
Maybe it was God’s will that we had a draw in Korea and lose the war in Vietnam. Or maybe we were not professing Christians enough so God punished us by not winning in Korea and Vietnam.
