God, in His infinite wisdom & knowledge, uses events & people to accomplish His will. In His grace & love, He can use even what may appear to be bad circumstances to save His people. As death came through man, so also through one man, Christ Jesus, comes life. As we live our lives in response to the Gospel, Jesus exhorts us to love our enemies, to do good to those who hate, to pray for those who abuse, not to judge, and to turn the other cheek. (Psalm 37:1-5, 7; Genesis 45:3-15; 1 Corinthians 15:21-26, 30-42; Luke 6:27-38)
