Questions And Answers About Jesus, Pain, And Suffering, Part 3 of 5
Q. When we hurt so bad, are we hurting because God does not love us?
A. God always loves us. Sometimes we hurt because of satanic darkness in the world and
because of the satanic darkness in our life. Satan is the source of pain and hurt. We
sometimes hurt because we have gone Satan's way rather than God's way. When we go Satan's
way, there is a price to be paid. The pain we feel when we go Satan's way of sin is the
price we pay for leaving God. At other times, Satan inflicts pain upon us whether we
deserve it or not. Satan inflicts pain on us whether we like it or not in order make us
suffer and turn away from God.
Q. When we hurt so bad, does that mean God is punishing us?
A. Sometimes, when we go Satan's way rather than God's way, we end up punishing ourselves
because we violated God's laws or violated God's will for our life. We inflict Satan's
hurt and pain on our life by ourselves by using our own free will. This does not mean God
is punishing us because we effectively punish ourselves. Many times we are our own worst
enemy and align ourselves with Satan's desire to see us suffer, hurt, and grieve. There
are other times when Satan makes us hurt when we did nothing to deserve the hurt. We must
remember, it is Satan who is the great adversary.
Q. Does God like to see us suffer?
A. No, God does not like to see us suffer because He loves us and cares for us.
