It’s one of the most baffling contradictions in religious history: a being supposedly omnipotent, omniscient, and ever-present, who was “actively involved” in the lives of people thousands of years ago, but now, silence. No miracles. No divine intervention. No direct communication. Let’s take a step back and think logically. Ancient civilizations were flooded with accounts of divine encounters. Moses parted the Red Sea. Jesus performed miracles. Muhammad spoke to God directly. These events are foundational to multiple religions, celebrated as proof of divine existence and intervention. But today? No parting of seas. No healings that defy modern medicine. No booming voices from the clouds. This isn’t rhetorical. It’s a direct challenge to the inconsistency of divine behavior. Ancient miracles are celebrated as proof of God’s existence, yet modern suffering unfolds globally without a whisper of intervention So, why this abrupt silence? If the same god who was apparently “active” back then still exists today, why does he/she/it no longer intervene? The Bible claims God obliterated Sodom with fire, sent plagues to humble Egypt, and resurrected the dead. Fast-forward to 2025: 500,000 die in Syria’s civil war, children starve in Africa, and Natural disasters kill thousands. Where’s the divine hand? If God “works in mysterious ways,” why were those ways so blatant then but imperceptible now? Ancient miracles served as “proof” for pre-scientific societies; today, such claims crumble under scrutiny. Ancient people attributed earthquakes, eclipses, and disease to gods because they lacked better explanations. We now understand tectonic plates, astronomy, and virology. The only “miracles” left are vague personal experiences (“I found my keys after praying!”), which psychology explains as confirmation bias. If God’s presence has faded alongside human knowledge, is he just the god of ignorance? Theologians argue God hides to “test faith.” But if a parent ignored their child’s screams during a house fire to “test loyalty,” we’d call them a monster. Why excuse God? The Holocaust saw 6 million Jews slaughtered, many praying for deliverance. If God intervened for Moses, why not for Auschwitz? Either he’s powerless, indifferent, or fictional. All options invalidate Abrahamic theology. “God’s miracles today are subtle!” Then why the shift from splitting oceans to… subtlety? A deity who once used spectacle to prove himself now hides behind ambiguity? That’s not wisdom, it’s evasion. “You just need faith!” Faith is the excuse people give when they lack evidence. Ancient believers demanded signs (Exodus 7:11); why shouldn’t we? It’’s hard to ignore the fact that the lack of intervention today is a glaring discrepancy with the claims of past divine acts. Until believers can provide a compelling reason for this contradiction, the question remains: Why is the divine so active in ancient history, yet utterly silent in the present day?

Based on the Bible we have read, Christianity speaks of a 6,000-year history. However, this has been manipulated by someone, and in reality, Moses’ Exodus took place 10,000 years ago. If we look from the beginning of Genesis, 15,000 years of history have passed. The miracles recorded in that history have been condensed into the Bible all at once, which is why it may seem that many miracles happened frequently in a short period of time during the Old Testament era. However, that is not the case.
For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.(Matthew 24 : 7)
For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows.(Mark 13 : 8)
The fact that various diseases, famines, and countless natural disasters like earthquakes occur today is already recorded in the Bible, showing that God has not been silent.
These questions arise because people judge the Bible with a shallow understanding.
In that case, all aspects of human science, civilization, and even disasters ultimately come from the Creator, God.
Judging and reasoning about God’s providence and will using human knowledge, intelligence, and common sense is, in itself, a very foolish endeavor.
Having absolute certainty about something one does not truly understand is merely a strong assertion. At times, such claims can become sheer stubbornness.
These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth. And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed. These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will.(Revelation 11 : 4-6)
Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to this temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the LORD of hosts. But who may abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a refiner’s fire, and like fullers’ soap: And he shall sit as a refiner and purifer of silver: and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that they may offer unto the LORD an offering in righteousness.(Malachi 3 : 1-3)
God clearly stated in the Bible that He would send the messenger of the covenant.
It is written that He will send two witnesses, and through these two witnesses, on the Day of Judgment in the end times, the chosen ones will be gathered and led, just as Moses led the Exodus.
Moses and Aaron, the two witnesses, are already on this earth. You simply do not see or hear them because of your lack of depth.
In the end times, fiery masses from the heavens will descend, and the great plagues that Moses once brought upon the earth will occur again. Right now, we are on the brink of a tremendous catastrophe. You just do not realize it yet. If you wish to understand these details, I strongly recommend reading The Day of Judgment and Moses’ Burning Bush. That book contains most of the answers you are seeking.
He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man;
The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one; The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels. As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world. The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity; And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth. Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.(Matthew 13 : 37-43)
Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.(Matthew 7 : 21-23)
Additionally, Jews are not Christians. Jews denied both Christ and Christianity. They also rejected the Christians whom God sent. The Jews were responsible for the crucifixion of Christ. Perhaps the massacres of the Jewish people were the consequence of that sin. Moreover, those who live by the flesh cannot live a spiritual life in God. They only follow worldly concerns, worrying about things of the secular world—family issues, health problems, workplace struggles, business troubles. How can a person who spends their entire life consumed by such concerns live a spiritual life and follow God’s will? They may claim to believe in God, but if they are not truly living as Christians in accordance with God’s will—following the love of the cross—then it is no surprise that their prayers go unanswered.
Religious people who claim to be Christians and call themselves children of God, God’s shepherds, children of Christ, or Christ’s shepherds are making baseless assertions. Based on the words of the Bible, is there any religious person who truly serves as a model and an example, like the light and salt in Christ’s life?
The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished: But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous are they, selfwilled, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities. Whereas angels, which are greater in power and might, bring not railing accusation against them before the Lord. But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption; And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, as they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time. Spots they are and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you; Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children:(2 Peter 2 : 9-14)
Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.(1 John 4 : 1)
