ANGELS CAN’T . . .
Angels sent to destroy Sodom, had to drag Lot back into his house and hold back the gay mob and strike them blind.
The next morning the angels had to grab the lingering Lot and his wife and his daughters to get them out of town.
They used force to make them leave to escape destruction.
BUT, the angels could not prevent Lot’s wife’s destruction, after escaping.
Her free will prevailed—she had to look back at the good things she was leaving.
By the way, when Lot told his sons-in-law to escape with their wives, they laughed it off and perished with the city.
GOD WON’T . . .
One Christmas Eve, alone in a church parking lot (after a special greeting with a sweet three-year-old ‘angel’ in the service), I cried out to God with the ultimate “WHY?” question of my life,
“God, WHY didn’t you save my marriage, and my family ?”
God answered,
“I don’t, I won’t, override free will.”
So there you have one answer to the question of what God can’t do—or won’t do.
