One of the images I got when I googled in "Act of God."

"However, if he does not do it intentionally, but God lets it happen, he is to flee to a place I will designate." [Ex. 21:13]

"God lets it happen"....  Today, we call it an act of God.  But I'm not always sure if it's God will or Satan's.  So how do we determine who we're being "blessed" by?  I think that the prevailing thought that if the blessing is, in deed, a blessing than this is from God and not the devil.  But I'm not always certain.  Take for example - riches. It all depends, doesn't it?  What you do with it and what it does with you.

"...with an iron object," "a stone in his hand;" and "a wood object in his hand"  [Num. 35:16-19]

Why is God so interested in what instrument a consumer uses to murder?  Did they legalistically  say that if you used this or that you weren't actually guilt of murder?  The iron object, the stone or the wood object were the murderers?  In other words, people don't kill people.  People with guns kills people without guns.

Make of it what you will.
