Even when life begins in that horrible situation of rape, that is something that God intended to happen.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
God lets everything happen for a reason. It's all a learning process, and you have to go from one level to another.
If 'everything happens for a reason,' then every act of evil is ultimately God's doing.
Guilt: punishing yourself before God doesn't.
I believe everything happens under God's plan anyway.
I think God's justice is making wrongs right.
It's true my father abused me and didn't love and protect me the way he should have, and at times it seemed no one would ever help me and it would never end. But God always had a plan for my life, and He has redeemed me.
Therefore, sins of sex are punished in this life to a greater degree than some other sins.
I think that the enormous emphasis on violence and sex, and in particular violent sex, may not make rapists of us all, but it predisposes us to accept a kind of world in which these things happen.
If God were suddenly condemned to live the life which He has inflicted upon men, He would kill Himself.
God ceases to be God only for those who can admit the possibility of His non-existence, and that conception is in itself the most severe punishment they can suffer.
