What Will Happen That Day?
God is the Lord of everything. Whatever anyone receives is given by God. No one but God has anything to give to anybody. And so, if someone were to snatch away something from somebody else that the latter has legitimately acquired, it is, as it were, snatching something given by God. By doing so, that person tries to go against God’s plan.
Suppose someone gets a house, and some other people plot to make him houseless. He has a legitimate source of livelihood, but some people want to destroy him economically. He leads a respectable life, but they want to rob him of his respect. He is at peace with his surroundings, but they institute false cases against him in order to destroy his peace. All such actions are an interference in what God has arranged. It is a war against the All- Powerful God by absolutely powerless creatures.
What do such actions amount to? God wants something, but these people do not want it. God decided to arrange for the allocation of livelihood among people in a particular way, but these human beings do not agree to this. These people’s defiance of God appears to work in this world, but this apparent success is only because in this world, people have been granted freedom in order to test them. As soon as the period allocated for this test is over, people will find themselves so utterly bereft of power that they will not have even words to utter against others or the capacity to harm them.
In this world, human beings have freedom. Here, people have the freedom to go against what God has laid down as proper for human beings to do. They have the freedom to try to condemn the allocation of livelihood among people that God has arranged. But what will the condition of such people be when this freedom, linked to the test of life, comes to an end after death? Then, whatever will happen will be what God wants. Then, it will not be possible for anyone to change what God wants.
On that day, God will say that He gives to whoever He wants, and that no one can overturn His will, try as hard as he might.
