When God Is Pronounced Jeezes

By Luisa Sharpe


The notion of the Supreme Being finds new meaning and explanation with discoveries by scientists and increased dialogue on religion. This has created a new school of thought where God is pronounced Jeezes. This has largely emanated from the unsatisfactory answers provided by traditional theology that seems to have been disapproved by science. Humanity is seeking redefinition with an increasing momentum around the world.

The centers of the discussion include online and copied videos, public forums, books and blogs. Criticism is growing with a lot of the traditional notions about divinity being questioned. Death remains emotive with most members of this new school of thought unsatisfied at the unexplained demise of young people. It sends innocent children into a lot of pain and suffering. This is unlike the known portrayal of the Supreme Being as caring and all good.

Death of a young parent opens a new painful chapter for those who remain. The spouse is left in loneliness while the children are denied the joy of living with both parents. Such an incidence sees the death of many dreams that were anchored on the young life. The scenario is hard to explain especially for traditional theologians. It is against the traditional understanding that God cares about everyone.

The long life enjoyed by evil people compared to the suffering and poverty experienced by good people becomes a contradiction. Continued living by the evil people becomes a bigger burden to the oppressed. Such scenarios cause the good people to loose faith in natural justice and even doubt the fact that divinity is good. This is a debate that continues to draw varied reactions in different quotas.

Jeeves is a pastor who has taken the discussion to a new level. The book of Job in the Old Testament is his point of reference as he seeks to advance his ideas. He cites the loss that befell job which included possession and the wiping off of his children. According to Jeeves, this acted as preparation for greater things that were on the way. This is how the Supreme Being tests the faith of humanity in him.

There is contention on the notion that God is perfect. The existence of catastrophic occurrences like floods, diseases and earthquakes indicates his imperfect nature. Such occurrences have lead to immense suffering on the part of humanity. There is no reason why innocent human beings should suffer in this sense. Such catastrophes lead to immense suffering for many families and communities. It would be considered as an ungodly act.

The conflict has also revolved around the theories of evolution and that of creation. This is in light of recent scientific findings that seem to go contrary to such contention. There is more complexity to life than is indicated in sacred scriptures. Science has disapproved some of the notions and the younger generation is realizing that what they believed no longer holds. They are attempting to make sense of the idea of God.

Shifting theological centers are opening new chapters in the understanding of God. Traditional knowledge is gradually being dismantled as people recreate new notions of their supreme being. The entry of scholars from both sides of the divide serves to make it more sensitive.
