 Now, this is really weird because we don't often think of God in these terms. You see, God is supposed to be good and kind and caring. God wouldn't do these kinds of things, would he? Yes, he would, and yes, he does. And this is disturbing to think of God in these terms. Nevertheless, he can, and he does. It's important to remember that in the Old and New Testaments, Satan does not have any power at all.
