    “Tornadoes and God” I personally do not agree with Piper’s claim that fierce tornadoes are the fingers of God. Also, I do not believe that God directly determined the tornado to kill all who died in the natural disaster, including babies and children. The Bible states that Jesus holds all of nature together.
