I do not understand this, it was a completely senseless attack on innocent people. I pray for the people in Belgium that were injured and for the families of those killed. I am sure you will be seeking answers as to why this happened. Unfortunately, you will never really get a valid one. If you are seeking peace, there is one that can heal you and that is Christ.
I know this next part is not going to be easy, but Christ expects us to love even our enemies
Matthew 5:43-48 New International Version (NIV)
Love for Enemies
43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor[a] and hate your enemy.’ 44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. 46 If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that? 47 And if you greet only your own people, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that? 48 Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
In my opinion, all terrorists are cowards, pure and simple. They always attack those that are not expecting anything and who have nothing to do what is going on in their life. However, this is expected as time goes on and I am afraid it will only get worse.
2 Timothy 3 New International Version (NIV)
3 But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. 2 People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3 without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, 4 treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— 5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people.
Matthew 24 New International Version (NIV)
The Destruction of the Temple and Signs of the End Times
24 Jesus left the temple and was walking away when his disciples came up to him to call his attention to its buildings. 2 “Do you see all these things?” he asked. “Truly I tell you, not one stone here will be left on another; every one will be thrown down.”
3 As Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately. “Tell us,” they said, “when will this happen, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?”
4 Jesus answered: “Watch out that no one deceives you. 5 For many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am the Messiah,’ and will deceive many. 6 You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. 7 Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of birth pains.
9 “Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me. 10 At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, 11 and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people. 12 Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, 13 but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved. 14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.
Isaiah 5:20 New International Version (NIV)
20 Woe to those who call evil good
and good evil,
who put darkness for light
and light for darkness,
who put bitter for sweet
and sweet for bitter.
Am I preaching that we are in the end times, I do not think so.
Luke 17:26 New International Version (NIV)
26 “Just as it was in the days of Noah, so also will it be in the days of the Son of Man.
While it is tempting to say that yes the way of man is evil all the time, I honestly do not think we are there yet. Plus, we are to preach the gospel to all the world and that has not happened and probably will not happen for at least another 200 years or so. Do not hold me to that, because God says man will not know when the end of times come.
Mark 13:32 New International Version (NIV)
The Day and Hour Unknown
32 “But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.
So here is my advice, live everyday as though it was your last and your eternal life depended on it. I know that is not easy, but you must try. In other words, get saved today for tomorrow may be too late. I pray that you can see and hear the truth because if you listen to the lies, it will only lead you down a path of eternal life in Hell. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.
