I don’t know which god these people have been given over to as subjects, but the God of the Holy Bible doesn’t go around asking people for change. Rather, He curses and inflicts punishment on those who break His Law-Word, and blessings on those who keep it. Iniquity IS lawlessness.
There is no “new path” to YHWH. There is only one way, and it’s the same as it’s always been.
Deeply religious Haitians see the hand of God in the destruction of Biblical proportions visited on their benighted country. The quake, religious leaders said Sunday, is evidence that He wants change.Exactly what change He wants depends on the faith: Some Christians say it’s a sign that Haitians must deepen their faith, while some Voodoo followers see God’s judgment on corruption among the country’s mostly light-skinned elite.
And then there’s American evangelist Pat Robertson, who said Wednesday that Haiti had been cursed by a pact he said its slave founders made with the devil two centuries ago to overthrow their French rulers and become the world’s first black republic. The White House called his remarks “stupid.”
As desperate believers gathered to pray Sunday across the shattered capital, the Rev. Eric Toussaint told a congregation gathered outside the ruined cathedral that the earthquake “is a sign from God, saying that we must recognize his power.”
Haitians, he said, “need to reinvent themselves, to find a new path to God.”
