there is a GOOD REASON why god has let people starve to death by the millions
Yes, that good reason might have to do with human greed. How many reports do we have of "rulers" hijacking food supplies destined for the people of their country, in order to sell it on the black market?
Sometimes I think that God gets too much blame for the crap the humans do to each other.
As far as belonging or not belonging to the "salvation club." The true question is not, "How come God does not save everyone?", but "why does God save any at all?" According to the Bible, we (the human race) and are all sinners. As sinners we cannot have intimate fellowship with God. Therefore, we must be banned from his presence. Total separation from God. Something that I cannot imagine, since God's common grace (ie. sunlight, rain, etc.) falls upon all, the saved and the unsaved.
Just my two cents. I'm not looking for a debate, or a flame war.
