Kung sa basis ng paliwanag sa itaas, we consider ourselves 'good", then no bad things happen to good" people. walang malas sa kristiano. walanng "naku" minalas kami,. "may masamang nangyari samin" Remember that "good" here does not mean personal righteousness, but righteousness through faith in Jesus.
Romans 1:17 " For in the gospel a righteousness from God is revealed, a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: "the righteous will live by faith."
GOODNESS= FAITH
There is no such things as good people. Some may be just less bad than the others, but everyone is a sinner.but everyone is a sinner. Nakakatindig tayong lahat dahil lang sa awa at biyaya ng Diyos. Walang deserving. Walang sinless. Walang good. Only God is Good.
Isiah 64:6 " All of us have sinned become like one who is unclean, and all our righteous acts are like filthy rags; we all shrivel up like a leaf, and like the wind our sins sweep us away".
man's best deeds are just like rags to God. Ang ating pinakamalinis na gawa ay mistulang mga maruruming basahan. Ang kasalanan natin ay prang malaks na hangin at tayo nama'y para lang mga tuyong dahon na sinisiklot-siklot, dinadala-dala dito,dinadala-dala doon, binabali-baligtad, pinapaikot-ikot.
I don't agree with all the points in this book to be honest, but it definitely helps put perspectives on things when it comes to dealing with loss and trauma or helping someone close to you go through it.
