Conclusion of Comfort in Times of Crisis-Where Lies the Responsibility?

It is noteworthy that Paul also said to the people of Lystra:  "In the past generations [God] permitted all the nations to go on in their ways."  Thus the nations-or people themselves-are largely responsible for most of the predicaments in which they find themselves. The blame does not rest with God. -Acts 14:16.

Why does Jehovah permit bad things to happen? Will he ever do anything about it?  The answer to these questions can be found only in God's Word. That is because  the answer is bound up with another spirit person and with an issue that was raise by him in the invisible spirit realm.
