But as far as I understand the Bible, everyone is part of God's omnipotent plan. For example, the Army is part of God's potency for the defense of the county, and even your helping the poor is part of God's omnipotent plan in helping the poor. Do you get what I'm trying to say?

bambi, I certainly respect your right to your opinion, but I want to understand something.  Do you think the U.S. Army is part of God's plan?  What about those that the U.S. Army kills?  Do you think that only certain people are part of God's plan and not ALL people?

Not judging, just curious to hear your take on it.
Sorry for the late reply. Actually yes, I believe God uses everybody, including terrorists, to bring good in the midst of evil. Take Joseph's Brothers for instance. They threw Joseph in the well and God let him suffer so that at the end, he would become the Grand Vizor of Egypt and foretell of the famine and help out.

There is a verse in the Bible for what I'm saying. I don't remember the reference buy it goes like this: "you meant for evil, But God meant it for Good'. So whatever evil happens in the world, just like in my suicide, God uses it for the good of other people.

Ultimatelty, God has pre-ordained evey detail to eetablish the Global Utopia (The Millenia of Christ's Reign). And every bit of Good and evil will finally come together the in the great coming of Christ where he smashes down sin fer good.
