What is justice
Beberapa akhir ini, aku bertanya2, apa sih keadilan itu. Ada orang jahat, yang tidak percaya Tuhan, tapi kaya dan hidup enak, keadaannya sehat2 ajah, tapi ada ajah pengikut Tuhan yang menderita, hidupnya pas2an. Ato ada anak yang dari kecil udah cacat, ndak punya kaki dan tangan, sedangkan ada orang yang badannya lengkap, tapi make tangannya buat ngupil [bercanda de] maksudnya buat ngutil, bunuh orang. Kenapa kalau Tuhan yang maha tahu, sudah tahu dia bakal ngebunuh, kenapa di kasih tangan? Apa itu keadilan? Apa itu keadilan Tuhan? Menurut kalian gimana?

wah pemikiran bobby complex yah. Instead of seeing this about justice, I see 3 different questions that he raised:
1. Why are many bad people left unpunished ?
2. Why is there evil (especially natural disasters) inflicting suffering to good people?
3. Why doesn't God stop or eliminate evil altogether?
My simple crude answers are as follows:
1. There are bad people left unpunished now, but they'll be punished later. They might also be given more time on earth to repent.
The good undergo hardships in order to be better in Christ.
2. Natural disasters, epidemics exist not necessarily always to punish or test anybody. They simply exist due to the corrupted nature of creation that came about through Adam's fall.
3. God doesn't stop or eliminate evil altogether, because it is impossible to do that without restricting free will and the consequences that follow.
But no one can possibly explain the rationale behind every suffering or injustice on earth, because we cannot fathom the mind of God.
so, the answer of my question is, that, we can't read the mind of God? Is there any answer in the bible... Gua akhir2 ini berpikir kalau Tuhan tuh terlalu banyak kasih, so He sees us with love. God Justice is love justice. Bisa ajah dia bunuh semua orang jahat, terus tinggalin ajah yang baik2 di dunia ini, but, that's not love. Do you think it is fair, for God to sacrifice His only son for people like us? What is justice according to bible
