Romanian Court Dismisses Lawsuit Filed Against God

A court in Timisoara, Romania has dismissed a lawsuit filed by a prisoner against "God, who lives in the heavens and is represented in Romania by the Orthodox Church". Mircea Pavel, serving a 20 year sentence for murder, sued for fraud and betrayal of trust because his prayers were not answered. He argued that a contract he made with God was breached. Interfax yesterday said that the court dismissed the case because "God is not subject to law and does not have an address."

Mr. Pavel does not understand the relationship that he has with the Almighty. Not only does God accept human penalties and punishments for crime, but allows for prayers to remain unanswered for a time. Witness the case of Job. He asked God for an answer as to his wretched state, and the one he received was "Where were you when I laid the earth's foundation?" Job 38:4. There are three answers that God gives to prayer: yes, no, and wait. The last two are just as valid as the first. After all, who are we to question him? "Tell me if you understand!"
