First: Pardon my ignorance with regards to the question I’m about to ask. I’ve yet to hear an actual answer on this subject, and I’m curious to hear some of your views.

I assume that many (or all?) Christians believe God to be omnibenevolent(all good), omnipotent (all powerful), and omniscient (all knowing). If my assumption is correct:

How do you explain something like Hurricane Katrina, or any other disaster similar to this?

My apologies if this has already been brought up in this thread.

The Bible tells us that an increase in natural disasters is a sign that Christ’s return is very close. Any person can see that there has been a dramatic and obvious increase in natural disasters in the last 100 years. Hurricane Katrina, I believe as well as many others do, is a sign of Christ’s soon return.

So, as Jesus was (all be it he had a spanish name, for some reason) in the middle east, wants it warmer, so we have global warming as a result.

That would be a new one.

“Jesus” is actually the Greek version of the Hebrew name “Joshua”, which is what he would have been called in his own language. Most of the New Testament, or at least the earliest copies of the original documents, was written in Greek, hence why he is more widely know as Jesus.
