I do believe that God is fair though there are indeed a lot of inequalities that are happening in this world. All people do experience problems in life, whether they are rich or poor. Sometimes, we are the ones making our problem by choosing the wrong choice or by not taking its responsibilities. The problems that we encounter in our lives are just challenges that can help us become a better person. It doesn't mean that God is unfair. It doesn't mean that He loves the other compared with you. I strongly believe He loves us all to the point of hurting us so that we will be able to learn and understand the importance of life.

Does losing a love one makes you a better person?

God is fair, sometimes some things happens to us which we think is not fair for us, but god do that because he is having some other planning for us, trust me god is with everyone,but we have to work hard for our life, if we give our best, god can never be unfair with us.

God is always fair. You just need to have faith in Him. Just think of all the things that happened to your life. If there were unfair things, it is because you let it happened. You've made wrong decisions. I also have those things and I have so many regrets in my life. But if we just think deeply, it is all because we made the wrong move, wrong decisions were done. And most of it happened because we let our human minds to rule over it. If we will just let God enter our lives, we will have the proper guidance to choose on decisions to make. So these things won't happen again. He's with us always waiting for our call. And if you are doing good things, you really don't need to call Him, He will just give you the right path instantly. Just follow Him and Have faith!

God is always fair and we should not dare to think sometimes he is unfair. All the unfair things which happens in our life are just the consequences of the sins which we have committed in our life or past life. He always maintain justice. Remember there are many people who are living in a very worst condition than us. At least you and me are at a better position. So we should not regret. Be happy....

Yes I always believe that god is fair no matter what and he is testing us to see if we will be faithful to him still when things in our life go wrong.

God never be unfair with us. I believe that. I believe that all bad things that happen to us, those are the consequences for all the things that we've done before. I believe that in this life the causal law is applied. And all the good or the bad thing, even if its a small thing, God will always pay that in the future. I always wonder why we only remember God when we face the bad situation in our life. Do you always remember God when you are happy?? Well I think there is only some people who thank to God when they got happy thing in their life

I have come across this blog which features a letter to the blogger and a response to that letter, and I am 100% in agreement with what the blogger said. The actual letter responded to is as follows: "Dear Bro. Eli, My problem is that, I don’t know what to think anymore. Something is lingering in my mind, telling me not to believe in God anymore, although I’m really, really trying hard to disregard this thought inside my mind but whenever I think of what’s happening to these innocent children and poor women, it really makes me sad. Why does God allow this to happen to many innocent Children? It makes me wonder also if God exists (although I really try hard to fight this thought) because of things like this that happen. I’m sorry if it seemed I’m questioning God’s authority, but I don’t really know what to do and think anymore. I’m sorry. I’m so sorry for being so weak at this time but I really need your help in this. What should I do? Please help me Bro. Eli." [written by someone named Marcus] You can read and be enlightened by the answer. http://esoriano.wordpress.com/2007/07/27/perfect-justice-in-gods-perfect-time/ Although this does not directly address the proposition whether God is fair or unfair, we may grasp a sensible idea why God lets "unfair" things to happen. And I believe, God is not at all unfair. He is true justice.

You could blame God but the truth is. Its usually your own fault if you happen to mess up something.. Ok, there are certain things that you can't influence but I'm not sure if you could blame God for that. For example.. last year during my exam time I prayed so many times to God so that I may pass those exams. And I did.. this year.. well, I did the same but ended up failing one exam. One that I will have to retry next week.. I felt let down by God but I'm not sure if I would blame him for that.. Anyway, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger.. in some way. I felt so awful when I failed that exam (first time it happened to me) but there I am ready to try again and give my best.. I know that its a lot easier to blame someone else or even God for something but I doubt that God really would let us people down.. He might be just busy with something else.. something that was more important at that time..

In the end he is neither fair or unfair he's just our creator and protector. It may seem that sometimes he may be unfair but I'm sure that everything that happens has somewhat of a purpose here on this planet. God is an easy target for us when our lives get tough or we're going through bad times. People don't accept how much of a role they themselves play in their lifes. If you reading pretty much any religious text it will tell you that you are a part of God or that we descended from God to reascend again one day and then do the whole process over again. I believe that he created this whole existence as a learning experience to help prepare us for the next stage of evolution. But like everyone else I could be wrong.

We look at situations from our point of view but God has the whole world to think of. God has also given us the free will and it is up to us to make or mar our life. There are countless actions of ours where we may have gone wrong and so it is not fair to blame God. We should look within the see where we have gone wrong.

i wouldn't choose the word fair, though i'm betting on "God is fair", but rather, Righteous. God is righteous, in all ways and aspects. There is nothing unfair in life, only reasons and discontentment. anxiety is one thing that may lead us to feel that way. some things, if not most, don't happen the way we wanted them to be. the poor wonder why they weren't born rich. the "not so beautiful" feels the same way, why were they not born beautiful. all these were just result of anxiety. did God want that for you? well yes. it was designed that way. it's a situation you'll have to be thankful about, only then can you figure out why it was that way.

God is fair in all terms giving a special talent to each and every person. Now that it is in our hands that we do justice to our own lives or not. Thinking in the right and positive path would mean and make a person sure to be fair enough to do good deeds to others on the otherhand they are unfair to themselves being or thinking negatively. hence being good or bad, right or wrong etc is in our hands which is the last resort one can do to believe in god.

We don't see the same things God sees. We see things happen to this physical body that is here today and gone tomorrow and we wonder why . God sees this as the begining of something that goes far beyond this life and is forever...

based on what i went through I still prefer to think that God is fair. why? because when I become boastful God makes me unlucky so that I become humbler. God is fair because when people wants to die, he gives it to them. When people prefer to survive God provides the life. the most beautiful things in life cannot be numbered alone. thats enough proof of his fairness.

In the beginning when God created the world He created human beings with full of fairness. But satan and devils are at work to corrupt the minds of his creations so people are fighting among themselves to gain supremacy. This has been the beginning of a lot of unfairness seen in this world because of humans own faults.

I feel God is fair to them who always believes in Him and chooses the right path in life. However, life is full of odds and even. Again, for each individual, happiness and sorrow is equally distributed. If a person will not feel what sorrow is, then how can he feel the sense of happiness. So,in this life,we have to move ahead with confidence and should try our very best to overcome the obstacles that hinder our path to success.we have to take it that sometimes God tries to test our ability and selfconfidence by making us to face big problems. But sometimes, i too feel that God is unfair to me because i faced such a big loss. But this is our fate and we all have to accept this and go ahead. Wish you a good luck.
