The answer is in God's Book!

It was not God that "took" them since He's not out whackin His children... He's not the godfather like you see in the mob that whacks people He loves.

and that's why people say the things you mentioned

Those people speak in error...folks that die early die before their time needlessly!

God did not take them, the devil does not have enough power to kill them... so apparently, they missed something.

Psalms 91:14-16
Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.
He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honor him.
With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.

Yes... needlessly.

Either they missed it or God missed it causing them to not be protected.

Why do you supposed it was that missed something?

Or God missed it? really

Bro Farm Truck,

You know there's a forum curfew now? It's 12 midnight. If you're in the midwest or east coast you have to cease from posting

That's usually where the conversation goes when someone says they know some good Christians that died early... that these Christians did absolutely nothing wrong and them dying early was NOT their fault in any way, shape or form... which leaves the implication that either God decided to not heal them or satan became very powerful and whacked them.

That's the difference between me and a lot of Christians... I see good Christians dying early, I want to know why!

The answer is in God's Book and it turns out they did not have to die early and yes they did miss God concerning divine protection... so, by going to Heaven early, they left things undone down here and Jesus was deprived of one of the joys that was set before Him at the Cross which was to make the divine nature of God available to mankind.

Unfortunately some don't walk in this and they get whacked!

The extremist are not singing Kumbaya and they are out to kill us, rape our children, take people as slaves etc. THEY said this!
we have a right and a responsibility to keep this people out of our country.

Some of our leaders is acting like there's no problem

I think our leaders have been rather reckless with our security concerns

Breaking the forum curfew ... I would point out that the refugees are the ones fleeing the havoc created by the extremists.
