“We do know that he was upset at administrators at the school. We do know that he was upset with several students here because of the way he was treated when he was enrolled here two months ago,” Jordan said.
He said Goh had been teased, but he did not elaborate. The 43-year-old South Korean national had been expelled, possibly for behavioural problems, according to Jordan.
“We’ve learned that this was a very chaotic, calculated and determined gentleman that came there with a very specific intent to kill people, and that’s what his motive was and that’s what he carried out,” Jordan told the TV show “Good Morning America.”
Those connected to the school, including the founder and several students, described the 43-year-old gunman as a former nursing student. The chief said Goh is a South Korean national.
Five died at the scene and another two died at the hospital. The wounded victims were in stable condition, and at least one person had been released from the hospital. Jordan told “Good Morning America” the victims ranged in age from 21 to 40…continue reading…
Summary:
So the question at the top of this article was….was God looking when this Christian shooting took place? The answer is Oh yes, and no doubt with sadness and anguish beyond what any of can possibly imagine, because what he witnessed was the taking of the life he had given to several of the slain victims, and the destruction of life of the shooter…did he equally mourn both sides of this tragedy? Yes he did for they are all his children, but perhaps the shooter more than the others. For you see those that were slain are now in his presence but the one truly lost is the shooter himself.

A loss is a loss no matter whether it is from death or divorce. It may seem a little easier in divorce if the love is gone as opposed to losing someone through death, but this is not the case. Any loss is devastating and it means re-adjusting to be on one’s own which can be a real struggle. As partners we automatically become dependent on each other, and it’s a hard pattern to break when a spouse is suddenly no longer in your life.

Often what prevents people from making the decision to hand their life over to God is because they feel they can never measure up, they are not good enough. Well yes its true nobody is good enough, but that is what being saved by grace is all about. Its a matter of his forgiving us of our wrongdoings. Don’t think that as a christian that you won’t fall on your face from time to time, or have your own fair share of sins, because you will. The big difference is though that the Almighty is there to pick you up when you fall and dry your tears when you mess up. Without him there is nothing, but with him there is everything.

Now don’t be surprised if you start to get these little doubts. For example how can you rely on a book that is centuries old to live your life by now? First of all can you account for any other book that has survived intact such as the Holy Bible has? Also ask yourself this…if someone told you that 10 things were going to happen and 7 of those did would you assume that the next three would also? Well that is the credibility that the Bible has. Everything that it has said would come to pass has done so, and you can be sure those that have not as yet but have been spoken about will also materialize.

If you find that the original version of the Bible a little difficult to read then certainly purchase one of the modernized versions but always keep your original to refer to if you question something in the modern day translation.
