Final Revision part eleven

How could God not stop the suffering when he sees the innocent die in pain. Surely he must feel compassion??

God allowed Jesus to die on the cross and feel pain.

So he allows the innocent to suffer.

Why? So good can prevail. People can choose to do the good.

This is better than if God had pre-programmed the good.

Suffering

“ If there was a loving God he must want to prevent suffering so how cold he allow suffering”

Why do people have to suffer?

Suffering

People have suffered a

great deal sine humans

first walked upon the earth. What still amazes is the capacity we have to endure more and more horrible experiences.

One does often ask why and for how long?

How do people suffer?

Abandoned, starved, isolated, hated, despised,

How we respond to this is what really matters?

Why does God allow suffering?

Oh God have pity on this child, have mercy, stop the pain…….

Have compassion have sympathy

One child dies every 3 seconds….

Bless them in their hour of need

How shall we comfort them?

Oh God

There is no justification that

can be acceptable for

this suffering?

Alone

Crying sad

Vulnerable

pain suffering agony abandoned

WHY?????

Is it that God can act but chooses not to?

Is so much suffering in the world really necessary?

Why do the innocent have to suffer?

Enough is enough..

The Christian response is ;

Look at what you do and say.

“Whatever you did to the least of these you did it to me”
