Response
Someone asked me yesterday what I thought about Pat Robertson's comments recently relating to the earthquake in Haiti. Now to be frank, I don't listen to Pat Robertson. It's not that I have a huge dislike for the man, I just have way too much going on to sit and listen to him or anyone else much for that matter. Now I'm not sure if what he said or not is true...I know I have heard this often but never really researched it. My thought on the subject is this....It doesn't matter. Even if it happened, it does not affect my response to the situation. I would respond the same way if they had never made a pact with the devil or if they had put in express lanes to Hell. I am supposed to respond in a way that I believe Jesus would respond, and I believe that no contract that anyone makes prohibits me from loving people.
One thing is for sure, it's good to have the facts strait. If you spend anytime in Haiti, you are sure to encounter voodoo. Whether or not they made a pact with the devil 200 years ago or not I am not sure, but I say it does no good to blame the earthquake on that. There will be earthquakes, wars, tsunamis, famine, and much more in this life, whether you are Christian or Heathen, good or bad. Only Christ will be the judge of these things.
My response, for what its worth.
