4. Before you read, look at the picture(s) if any, as well as the title. What do you think the article will be about?
I guess, it is about that why does this happen (bad things) to good people, maybe this article try to explain the reason , because most people think that is strange that this people (good people) bad thing happen.
5. Read the article and describe what you understand of it in as much detail as possible.
God is not to blame who we pass something wrong. He only whant good for us , but when something is happen suddenly , web lame god. The bible states : "Time and unexpected events overtake them all." It means for example recently haiti in January 2010
a lot of people died. The people claimed these bodies, but they don't knowing this people. Most people asking why happen this thing? But all people say 'God should intervene in that' it means that the people belive that god nows all, but god not olny serves to tell us the future .
God knows what does he do, he wants good for us.
In conclusión God's exercise of foreknowledge is selective and discretionary.
Also most people say that cause of this is the karma but god says the died is cause of the disobedience of Adan. A million of people explain that the suffering is the cause of karma but it is not true, because they humans would be accept the suffering both of the others as. This ideas is very different that the bible says.
Clearly god is not responsable for bad thing that will be happen, also the suffering of people.
