Almighty God was, IS, and Is Forever - Not an Assertion - Fact

"Your list does not include islam and judaism and cao dai, taoism, confucianism, mandaeism, sikhism etc. Why? Your god does not understand human impatience, an impatience which is fully justified. Your god-concept is futuristic - but we live today and not tomorrow. If today's justice is not done today then it is bad."

The exceptions were covered in the 'others', since I have little or no experience in their teachings. Islam and Judaism were not mentioned specifically for they are to be contended with in the Revelation, whereas the others will heve been subjugated to the final religious battle, in the future.

If I believed my LORD did not have all the knowledge of the ancients, my contemporaries and the visions of the future in His full view at all times, He could not be my God........but He does, and He IS.

The inhumane justice seen today is a warning. The LORD waits for the inhumanity of mankind to fulfill its destiny, to have its completion judged in the final judgment, yet to come. I would not care to explain to Almighty God the justification of mankinds inhumanity to mankind and try to blame Him for it. It is His love that I see in providing salvation for all, and humanity's refusal (and fault) to accept His love that is the cause for the suffering we see in the world today.
