He made a covenant with Abraham, gave the law through Moses, sent the prophets to warn, and eventually sent war and disaster. I believe that, if all else fails to return his beloved to him, God will permit disaster. In desperate cases of the hardest hearts, where a nation refuses him repeatedly, and deals in bloodshed as if there were no God, God does permit disaster. I believe that we, the most comfortable of any nation in history, have no promise that God will never again use disaster. His love for us will stop at nothing to win us back.
Love is stronger than death.
I believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Finally, as the Bible says, God sent his son. When we take the hand of Jesus we can be one with God again, we can be forgiven and know peace in his life. I believe that Jesus went into hell and destroyed death for our sake. In the Eastern Orthodox Church we have an icon that shows Jesus standing on the broken gates of hell.
