It all depends on what you term or define as 'suffering'. Financially those men are not suffering but you know not what pains and suffering they might be going through internally. HungerBAD: |

Op, I see where you are going, and in essence, you are mostly right as to CONSEQUENCE, but not as to CAUSE or even DIVINE PERMISION. Human suffering is a consequence of sin, period. To say GOD allows it or permits it is to imply tacit consent. No, rather, just like planting and reaping is natural law, so sin planted must be reaped to the uttermost. Human suffering actually grieves our loving Heavenly FATHER, but as per natural law sin's fruits must mature fully and be reaped. GOD's purposes will still be served even by suffering for some of the ends you have listed, not in the way of permission, but by way of Divine precedence. All things must work together to work good, which is Divine purpose. 1 Like |

Such an evil God. As human, I can't seat and watch other people suffer. I can't watch children die of terminal diseases, I can't watch children die of hunger, I can't children get abuse both physically and sexually but God apparently has no qualms with that. He is more concerned about punishing those who masturbate and fornicators than protecting children 3 Likes |

Thistrendblog:the world is broken because of our actions... we will fix it with our actions... apart from severe cases like war, famine.. don't blame suffering on the world because of lack of redemption... the redemption we need is from people of evil mindset 2. To do justice in response to Adam's (and our) sin.when did Adam turn to “our".. even if i approach Genesis literally.. so because someone ate an apple the rest of humanity will suffer right? are your pastors suffering? or are there descendants of another adam who didn't eat the apple 3. To remind us of the severity of the impact of Adam's (and our) sin.refer to point abovr 4. To keep us dependent on God [Hebrews 12:6-7].this is a lie.. how does suffering keep you dependent on God? are the pastors not dependent on God? are the Chinese billionaires dependent on the God you worship? 5. So that we will long more for heaven and less for the world.“and they've sold us a pie in the sky and a sweet by and by after we die.. instead of giving us something sound on the ground while we're still around" ~Dr Khalid Muhammad ~ 6. To make us more like Christ, the suffering servant [Romans 8:29; II Corinthians 1:5, 4:11].your pastors aren't very christ like then through suffering??... please listen to yourself refer to points above... suffering is not a criteria for making heaven or being closer to God... this your mindset encourages people to want to remain poor instead of making them get up and change their situation... if anyone wants to be reach.. he/she should be ready to work hard.. you don't get any trophy for being a poor person 1 Like |

EvangelistNdudi: The problen is most people only know/believe what their pastors tell them. They dont meditate and find meanings to what they read....they dwell only on whatever meaning their pastor gives....NA PASTOR....NA REVEREND....NA PROPHET....WHO AM I TO SAY THE MAN OF GOD IS WRONG. Its painful to see people reason like this. 1 Like |

Most of you are just attacking the writer; is that the only part you read there? Why don't you ignore the one you know is not relevant to you and take the rest! I have never seen a Muslim attacking his or her fellow in this platform whenever they post any Islamic write up. Let's wake up and face reality please, don't expect every statement to please you at all time! May God help us in Jesus Name......Amen![color=#000099][/color] |

This is why one can never understand God or the bible.... there are much contradicting verses in the bible.. Since no one can fully understand the bible there's no need arguing with yourselves because another person will bring up another verse of the bible to counter your argument Just obey the 10 commandments... it is the summary of the bible 1 Like |

If suffering wasn't part of God's plan, then how can such a thing ever come into existence? If he doesn't enjoy watching people/animals suffer, why can't he stop it? Being a supposedly omnipotent god. Fantasies and make-believe won't take us anywhere.. 3 Likes
