MAN BLAMES GOD FOR MAN-MADE WARS

Consider the many prayers for cessation of wars. “O, Lord, we beseech Thee to stop this cruel war,” you say, forgetful of the fact that you make your wars yourselves by the free will to act as you choose. You certainly fail to realize that the way TO STOP WARS IS TO STOP CAUSING THEM. War is just as much an effect of a cause which man created by his selfishness as a business failure is the effect of a cause created by man.

You not only pray to God to let you defy His law without suffering from its effects but you blame God for your own actions in breaking His law. How often we hear people say, “How can a loving God in heaven permit such cruel wars? It is hard to believe there is a God, else He would not permit such wars.

“YOU MIGHT JUST AS WELL SAY THAT IF THERE IS A GOD, HE WOULD NOT PERMIT US TO LIE TO OUR NEIGHBOR.

God gives you free will to do as you choose in the making of yourselves to your own image, and He gives you all the power in His universe to help you break His law if you so choose, but the nature of the free will you exercise will become your nature. Again, let us hear God’s pronouncement:

Verily has man free will to control his actions. That my Father- Mother has given to man as his inheritance. But the control of the reactions to those actions man has never had.

This my Father-Mother holds inviolate. These cannot become man’s except through modifying his actions until the reactions are their exact equal and opposite in equilibrium.

THUS–YOU CREATE YOURSELVES IN YOUR OWN IMAGE.
