Have you read John Piper's book, "The Coronavirus and Christ?" I think it points toward what AustinC is stating.I see God's 4 sore judgements everywhere I look.
Scripture mentions God's four sore Judgements. They are defined in the book of Revelation. And defined several places in the OT.
“I looked, and there before me was a pale horse. Its rider was named Death, and Hades was following close behind him. They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill people by war, by starvation, by disease, and by the wild animals of the earth.” Revelation 6:8 (NCV)
If we study all that plagues the human race, it seems all but accidents fall into one of these four categories. And we know God controls accidents too. The wild beasts seem far removed unless we include the transmission of disease from animals to humans. Like bats and rats spreading plagues. War is unending today. Famine hangs in a fragile balance.
How about the riots making sure all but the elect catch it?
