Kiranga, you have asked a good question. You have hit the mark! And that's why I am convinced that you are so close to experiencing the God of Jesus Christ (not the god of Pasco). It may still take long but I do not care how much long it will take. What is good is that you are already in the right path towards the knowledge of the true God. You are searching for TRUTH!
It's very true that Satan has blinded us. It's also true that God gave Satan the power to blind us, and therefore, as you questioned, its the will of God that Satan blinds us (Luke 4:5-6 [SUP]5[/SUP] And the devil shewed unto him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time. [SUP]6[/SUP] And the devil said unto him, All this power is delivered unto me ).
But it's also true that God, through Jesus Christ, has immense power to un-blind us, to make us see, to make us experience His (Gods) presence to the extent that we are sure that God exists.
I anticipate that your next question could be, 'why did God allow Satan to blind us and then send Jesus Christ to un-blind us, to make us see again? Why?'
The answer is simple. Satan is a very powerful creature and he blinded us using all his satanic power, but God gave Jesus all power and authority and sent Him (Jesus) to come and un-blind us. Jesus came to destroy the works of the devil (1 John 3:8.. the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil). God did this with one aim; He wanted to make a show of His Power (Romans 9:17 For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh (an image of Satan), Even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might shew my power in thee, and that my name might be declared throughout all the earth ).
God wanted to display His Power, to make His Power known to Satan, Demons, Holy Angels and to Man.
God gave power to Satan to bind us, blind us, captivate us, hurt us, etc, so that God can use His Divine Power to destroy Satans power over us and in the end, destroy (not to kill) Satan himself and his demons.
And when Satanic power over our individual lives is destroyed then we will know experientially how powerful God is!
And when God has fully destroyed the powers of Satan and all his demons over Humanity, then all the demons, holy angels and man will bow before God, falling prostrate before God, saying Oh Lord God Almighty, You alone are God!
And when God sends Jesus to un-blind you, God will prove to you to be a merciful, gracious and powerful Being.
Therefore do not struggle in your war against sin, just do your best; and where you fail, God forgives you because He is merciful, gracious and slow to anger (Exodus 34:6-7 6 And the Lord passed by before him, and proclaimed, The Lord, The Lord God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in goodness and truth, 7 keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin).
Haya ni mahubiri ambayo hayajajibu swali la msingi la kwa nini mungu mjuzi wa yote, muweza yote, mwenye upendo wa juu karuhusu mabaya yawezekane.
Let me play devil's advocate for a second.
Mungu alimjua shetani na nyendo zake zote kabla shetani hajaumbwa, right? ( the answer must be right, if not, then god does not know everything)
Sasa shetani ambaye kashahukumiwa kuishi na kuwa shetani, kwa mujibu wa maono ya mungu,ambayo hayakosei,angewezaje kuepuka kuwa mbaya?
Na kama hakuweza kuepuka kuwa mbaya, mungu ana haki ya kumhukumu kwa ubaya?
