Why does God allow Suffering?

I am going to summarize what is linked below.

Basically Satan questioned God's right to rule mankind. Since then many men have questioned God's right to rule mankind. Man tries to rule themselves, and look at the results. We have a multitude of corruption, hypocrisy, and evil, all from our leaders no less! With time, this evil world will end up destroying itself, which is what God will step in to stop, after finally proving that Mankind is incapable of ruling itself.

Matthew 24:21,22 "21 for then there will be great tribulation such as has not occurred since the world’s beginning until now, no, nor will occur again. 22 In fact, unless those days were cut short, no flesh would be saved; but on account of the chosen ones those days will be cut short."

Read paragraphs 11-18 from the following link.

Any questions I will be happy to answer, knowing full well that this is the internet :)

Also for answers to other questions take a look at these:

Edark says

are there more Gods than one?


If you don't believe a deity exists "because bad things happen in the world" why would you ask if multiple deities exist?

Nice contradiction there :^)


I never said that but nice try chump:^)


And I never said anything about the Bible.

Check mate :^)

Capital 'G', God, almost always means the Abrahamic god.


A grammar mistake doesn't negate the context of the post that refers to deity in general rather than 1 specific religious deity.

What's your point? My religious beliefs are irrelevant to what I wrote.


If you believe in the bible, then your comment contradicts everything the bible says about god


A basic statement about the existence of a deity doesn't contradict anything.

Haha :^)


it wasnt just any deity you wrote about , you used god in your sentence, but Nice Try Chump


Wow I used "God" in my sentence... must automatically mean I'm referring to Christianity. Surely using "God" in a sentence means there are no "Gods" or deities depicted in any other religions except Christianity.

Haha embarrassing :^)
