      @@hapisky5013I will answer from a christian viewpoint. Sometimes God allows pain in our lives. Think Job and Paul who had what he called a "Thorn in the Flesh". Living with pain is the ultimate in walking by faith because there some things we will never understand. God will also NEVER override our choices. (eating habits, choice of drugs, playing sports that may leave us with injury...) Also, as we age, our body declines.

    8:31 If we didn’t have a choice we would be robots?😂😂 We practically are though. God literally gives you a “choice” to choose him but threatens to punish all who don’t “choose” him, that’s hardly a choice. Then when you choose him you have a list of demands you HAVE to follow-regardless of his “grace” you have to follow commands and live the way HE WANTS.
    He invites you to be in a relationship with him that you have no choice but to be in and can NEVER leave unless you want to end up in hell. It’s like being held hostage and the person say: “You have free will to leave but I’ll kill you if you do” - It’s a choice that is clearly dictated.
    He claims we have free will but wants to control and dictate your ENTIRE life. It wouldn’t make a difference if he just created us as “robots” with “no choice” because we practically have none anyway.

Why isn't he here to confirm that any of this is true if following jesus is the only way out of eternal suffering? Why should we have faith in the word of man if they are all inherently sinful? Whats the point in eternal suffering for finite sin with no chance of resolve? How is it that I have more compassion for others than "the most perfect being"? I don't think anyone deserves eternal hell. Also, supposedly, God didn't destroy the devil because he didn't want the others to follow him from fear, yet if we dont follow, we burn eternally? So he took satans burden and placed it on the entire world? God isn't saving us if he created the threat. If i put a gun to your head and say "follow me, or I shoot" and you follow me, did I save you, or just threaten you?

    I believe like an angry teenager, Lucifer wanted to prove to God that he wasn’t perfect. We were made In HIS IMAGE, and he wanted to defile GODS image. So he did. Our downfall wasn’t only a downfall, it was a realization that even the most loving most high, was juvenile at one point. Vulnerable, impressionable. God who created us; who we owe everything to, was once young as well. The reason to me, why God loves us anyways, why he gave his only son for us, is because he realizes that though he may be the most high, though he may be the absolute most wonderful being in this universe, he can still make mistakes. Us breathing and living is proof that not even God can fully predict what will happen. He can predict what he wants for us, and what possible. But him giving us free will means it’s out of his hands. Bad things happen not because of God, but because it’s a side effect of free will.
    God knew the gamble he took on us, and we failed him at the start, but he loves us anyways. He loves us because we made him realize that he’s not absolutely perfect either. We made him realize that life is chaotic, but there’s beauty in the chaos.
    He wants us to be happy; that’s why our life here is so short compared to eternity. But this life is a test. To see who has a good soul, and who is sour. This life was supposed to be a gift, but due to the betrayal (yes betrayal it was more than disobeying) it’s become a test. He wants us; he creates us, we are his children. But he gives us the choice. Before shapes, numbers; letters; and colors; we develop a sense of right and wrong. A conscience.
    That’s the first thing to develop because that’s the most important thing. You can be dumb as a bag of bricks, but if you care about others; know your God, do right by others, and show as much love as you can, your ignorance in book smarts doesn’t matter.
    Know him. Learn him. Listen to him. Apply him in science, in psychology, in love. And you’ll see; he is real. It may not have been exactly like the Bible says because it was a long long time ago, but the Jist and lessons are real.
    Open your heart. Open your mind. Apply what you know. You’ll realize that nothing in science negates God.
    It co exists. Even Einstein said there has to be a creator with his equation.
    Yes repent; but most importantly, know him. He cares more about your acknowledgment than your confession.
    If you try to speak to him, and open your heart mind and inner ears and quiet your thoughts (your conscience and mind) you’ll feel him, and eventually you’ll hear him.
    God is good, but only if you believe that he is. It’s easy to blame someone. But it’s also easy to believe in someone. Give him a try; he will never disappoint.

Are suffering is just like his suffering when he was in the flesh so to better understand god the more you understand godmlets this happen for reasons. Apocrypha and book of enoch explains it more that it was also amburden to god to make adam mortal amntake him out ofnthe cave into the garden of eden.

      The Rapture, meaning to be taken is when Yeshua--Jesus returns! For if it were not so, then God's Word would fail that He would never forsake His righteous ones. For there would still be believers here, so there would still be His Ruah HaKodesh--Holy Spirit, there would still be His grace, and there would still be His presence. Vehemently even now, if I told you there are believers being imprisoned, being persecuted, millions of believers in some of the fastest growing gatherings in Iran & China...would you understand? Dispensationalsim is a construct from a little Irish girl's dream, popular of a subgroup in America, but it is not the traditional, nor main view in Christianity Orthodoxy.

    Enforcement of someones beliefs should not be allowed in the world. America is majority a Christian nation but it is not by law. Just because the anthem has "One nation, Under God" when multiple people practice different beliefs not just singularly Christianity. Politicians love to say how we need to bring back the God-fearing person into our way of life but thats phony.
    And what about the other phrase in the anthem: "With Liberty and Justice for All"
    Most Christians love to say how the non-heterosexual people need to be "saved" and "repent" or risk eternal damnation. Why? It's not your responsibility to force others to confine to what you believe. You're supposed to respect anothers way of life and how they decide to live. Isn't that what Jesus would want? Love thy neighbor and all that?

    Many pastors are afraid to bring up the subject of the pain. They just serve up a bunch of platitudes and banalities, without giving any answers. Why not just say - I don't have the foggiest idea why God allows pain. Instead they try to explain away the unexplainable. The Bible doesn't give the answer why God doesn't stop our pain. When I am in pain my faith doesn't grow; in fact, it wavers and wanes. I don't understand why God wouldn't stop my pain, it makes no sense at all. It's hitting me below the belt.

    Having to justify pain for an abusive “god” sounds like a lot of work. Even if a god existed that made this universe with all knowledge and power, that is an evil god. The excuse that, “we live in a fallen world,” blaming humans for “sin,” sounds like deflection from a god who himself says he created good and evil, is plainly ridiculous. If I created a weapon for some extremists that I KNEW were going to harm others, and on top of it, created the extremists and their deterministic fate since if I were this god, I’d be omnipresent too, whose truly at fault?

      I see what your saying and I see why you think that. But God didn’t necessarily create the concept of good and evil. God himself is the embodiment of good and sin is evil. We have the free will to live to make the choices to live in sin or with God. God doesn’t intend for evil, people themselves just indulge in it. Like your example at the end of your text, in the beginning, God didn’t intend for humans to use weapons to harm each other nor did he create concepts to divide us. Humans create those concepts that divide themselves as well as the weapons that are chosen to do harm to others with. Yes, God is all knowing, but if he stopped all humans from sinning that would defeat Jesus Christs purpose for being here as well as defeat the purpose of free will.

      Same thing with understanding things of God you must study to understand our Creators plan for our lives. Trust in God will become a lot easier when you study HIS word, praying for you my friend praying for your salvation.
      God is real over 2,000 years ago in Gods word in Revelation says in the end times men will be lovers of money and lovers of self. He also said in the end times there will be lawlessness of all kinds (tell me that isn’t today) it also said in the end times there will be wars and rumors of wars(sound familiar) please give Gods word a chance it will be absolutely to your advantage to do so !!
