Answer:
ok
Explanation:
It is often asked why is there suffering in the world if God is all-powerful and loving. Why doesn’t He stop it? Can He or is He weaker than we think? Suffering can fall into three simple categories: emotional, mental, and physical suffering. But, there are a variety of causes for suffering: morally corrupt (evil) people, disease, earthquakes, floods, famine, etc.
There is so much suffering in the world because God is a loving God. When we messed up, God gave us a second chance (and many more). God never wanted us to suffer, like you would never want your child to suffer. But, sin entered the world, and it was because of our free will. The free will that was gifted to us by God.
Christians have developed several different solutions to the problem of evil and suffering in the world: God gave humans free will. Therefore, although he exists, he cannot interfere in any suffering humans experience as a result of their own choices. Suffering is not God’s fault.
Evil and suffering present a problem for believing in an all-loving and all-powerful God. If God has these characteristics, why do evil and suffering exist in the world? The ancient Greek philosopher Epicurus (341–270BC) wrote about the contradictions between the characteristics of God and the presence of evil and suffering.
