I believe that you good old boys apply way too much to God and Satan, this is a naturally occurring event that strikes with a lesser and greater degree in these parts of the country. The world is a dangerous place, it always has been. Instead of God and Satan, Biden has to be the one spending moneys for affected areas instead of spending bills chock full of socialism. We cannot help it if a President comes along who puts everything ass backwards. This is more of a result of AOC and other commies controlling the congress.

Just as the moon has no light of its own but must rely on the sun for its "power", likewise Satan has no power but what comes from God.

Satan has blinded the minds of unbelievers in this world so that they will not repent and believe the gospel (2Cor 4:4) but only in accordance with God's will. The bible does not teach Dualism, as Satan is a mere created being. His Creator could destroy him in a nanosecond if he so desired. Despite what many believe there is not a battle of good and evil being waged between God and the devil -- rather that battle is being waged between Christians and the spiritual forces of darkness (Eph 6:12).

Spoken by the guy who incessantly reminds us of what a "sick world" we live in -- but I guess the gospel is far worse than this "sick world".

In 1947 a small storm came through Nebraska, near a town called Elm Creek. On that night, my grandparents and their 4 kids, went to Elm Creek for dinner and a movie. It was family night out. Dinner and a movie cost about $5 for the whole family. While the movie was going their farm house was destroyed. The 4 small wooden outbuildings were left standing, and remained on the property until its sale. On the way home, my grandfather had to get out of the car and move a few trees that had been thrown across the road. When they got home, they found out that they did not have a home left. A friend of the family happen to have a farm house near where they lived, and let them move their. They stayed there until my grandfather was able to purchase another place. We called the land there the basement.

No, it's climate change's fault. But our hard-earned money can fix that, of course.
