When we do right, things go well. When we don't, they don't. Right? So says Earl. Pat Robertson, in addition to calling for the assassination of another country's president, made the news recently when he warned "...citizens of a Pennsylvania town that they had rejected God by voting their school board out of office for supporting "intelligent design" and warned them Thursday not to be surprised if disaster struck."
"I'd like to say to the good citizens of Dover: if there is a disaster in your area, don't turn to God, you just rejected Him from your city," Robertson said on his daily television show broadcast from Virginia, The 700 Club." And don't wonder why He hasn't helped you when problems begin, if they begin. I'm not saying they will, but if they do, just remember, you just voted God out of your city. And if that's the case, don't ask for His help because he might not be there," he said.
Maybe you've heard someone speculate that some of the recent disasters were some form of punishment for places like New Orleans. Most theologians think not. Everything happens for a reason, people say. What about the minister (Kyle Lake) in Texas who died recently after being electrocuted while standing in the church baptismal during a morning service? Did that happen for a reason? Christianity Today reprinted a portion of one of Kyle's books to address that question.
