<center>**War, starvation and suffering—what can be done biblically? (Part 2 of 4) | The Old Path**</center>
<center>**Scriptures: Hebrews 6:18, Deuteronomy 13:19, Malachi 3:7**</center>

It is always plain in His dealings with us. It is only the devil that will tell us one aspect of a thing and hide the other aspect from us, especially if it is not good. God always provides us with the knowledge of every outcome so that which ever choice we make, we are to hold ourselves accountable.

Hebrews 6:18 - That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us

It has never been in God's nature to lie. As a matter of fact, it is an impossible task for Him to carry out. Among all His abilities, lying certainly is not one of them. All His words are true; right from the beginning of the bible down to the end. He is not a man that He should lie, nor the son of man that He should repent.

>_Deuterounomy 30:19 - I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live_

God will always want the best for His people. But it is up to His people to decide if they want to experience good in their lives or evil. God will never choose for us. We are the ones that will choose for ourselves. This is why we experience all manner of things in this world, and all these are results of our actions. 

One fascinating truth that we should know is that more than half of the problems we face is not actually caused by the devil, we are actually the ones to be held responsible. God asked us to choose life. But sadly, many of us went ahead and chose death. Many of the things that we did that seemed good or pleasant to our eyes actually leads to death. 

The bible said that there is a way that appears right unto man, but the end is destruction. Everything that we do in this live produces two outcomes; it is either death or life. It may not be a physical death, it could be spiritual; which means disconnection from God. 

That's the death our first parents experienced when they went contrary to God's instructions.

For us to correct this, we need to return back to God. That's why God made available His son Jesus, so that through Him we can be reconciled back to God our father.
