The original Korean text: https://blog.naver.com/stevision/50132022402
Seeing crime and punishment, and sometimes vicious criminals, I think, 'Hell must exist!'
When a vicious human being tries to commit a serious crime, people pray, "God, stop him because he would harm others." However, God does not usually work miracles to stop him but lets him do as he would.
Because God is not able to punish the wicked? No!
Or, because God doesn't want to hear our prayers? No!
Calm down and think about it again. Suppose a man, who hates God, plans to commit a grave sin against God. If God kills him before he puts his thought into practice, his sin will be just 'the intention to commit a sin'. Naturally, he will not be punished so badly, because God is a righteous One and gives punishments corresponding to one's sins.
But if God lets him live until he has committed the sin? He will be wholly punished for that sin.
We must know that those who hate God and keep sinning are already cursed by God forever. Therefore you need not be too upset about God's justice as you see the wicked continue to commit sins. Sinning itself is an eternal punishment. And how grateful we should be if God chastises us immediately whenever we even commit petty sins!
