If there is no God, then the universal sense of “that’s not the way it is supposed to be” is meaningless.

This world of pain and suffering exists because without such a world Christ could not have died to show us the greatness of the love of God for sinners. Eric L. Boyd, Erik Mona (May 2002).

OTHER STORIES

Pain takes away our false sense of happiness, draws our attention to God and our need for Him. Even in “good, decent people,” the illusion of self-sufficiency must be shattered. And, like a good and loving Father, God is willing to accept whatever surrender and sacrifice we have to offer. Our desires must be changed from pleasing self to pleasing God, which in the end produces our greatest happiness. We must lose ourselves to find ourselves, truly satisfied, in God. As believers, we also believe in a God who is completely and utterly good; He is all-loving. It is argued that if God was loving and good, there would not be pain in the world, that He would not allow evil to perpetuate and invade our lives. Yet suffering is an inescapable reality. Jesus affirmed this in John 16:33, saying that we would have trouble in this world. Each Raid has several Raid Challenges equal to the number of major encounters for that Raid. For Root Nightmares, there are 4 Raid Challenges which correspond to the major encounters of the Raid: Cataclysm, Scission, Macrocosm and Nezarec. The Raid Challenges are on a weekly rotation starting with encounter one and rolling over to the next encounter at the start of each weekly reset. Ask about the prisoner. He tells you that is a man being held next door. Abdirakthen states that pain without purpose is a terrible thing and asks if you agree with him.

Does God Make Sense in a World Full of Suffering? - Christianity

I am God, and there is none like me . . . saying, ‘My counsel shall stand, and I will accomplish all my purpose.’” (Isaiah 46:9–10) God’s aim in this fallen world is that he be known more fully than he could have been known any other way, because knowing God most fully is what it means for us to be most fully loved. If you turn to Christ, you will discover in God more wonders of grace and justice in this fallen world than could be imagined in any other world. 2. The reason this terrorized and troubled world exists is because God subjected the natural world to futility.

Even worse, by rejecting God’s way and choosing evil instead, we incur divine judgment. A sin against an infinitely holy God merits infinite punishment, and thus we merit an eternity of separation from the source of life. Thus, God did not create nor is responsible for evil and sin. God’s plan had the potential for evil when he gave us freedom of choice. Another of Ilmater's allies was Lathander the Morninglord, god of renewal and vitality. [2] [9] [3] He was also allied with Ibrandul, the Lord of the Dry Depths, the freedom-loving god of caves and darkness. [2] Nodes are the small orbs which transform into either a Light or Dark orb based on what buff you have when you shoot them: having Field of Light will generate a Light orb, whereas Flux of Darkness will generate a Dark orb. Usually, only the runner needs to be aware of these nodes and their locations, as completing each set of six is required to progress each encounter.
