Why is there so much pain and suffering?

If there is a God why is it that He allows people to experience pain and suffering? Because the universe came under the curse of God due to our sins. Before the fall of Adam and Eve, the world was perfect with no viruses, no natural disasters, no suffering, no pain and no death. Then Adam and Eve dissobeyed God and SIN came into the world. Because of this God would not allow fallen man to rule over a perfect creation. To compensate, God made the world imperfect to go along with mankind who had also become imperfect.


  • And unto Adam he said, Because that hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life. (Gen 3:19)
  • Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field; (Gen 3:18)
  • In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return. (Gen 3:19)
  • For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; (Rom 1:18)

...Come out of her

my people... (Rev 18:4)

The tribulation is shortened to 2300 days for the believers (1988 to 1994). It was supposed to be 23 years (88 to 2011) but only those who remain in the church have come under judgment and suffer the full effect of the tribulation.

Good question, though. If you have any others, please don't hesitate to follow up.

Dantes,
I noticed that you mentioned something about "bones being brought out of the graves" as something spiritual in nature, I hink that it was on a facebook group discussion. Have you considered the possibly the "bones" could be the scriptures/ the Word alive and powerful being brought up out of the land of Egypt, just as Joseph's bones were brought out of the land of Egypt. Joseph being a picture of Christ who gave Himself / the Word in the flesh/ during the church age and although we ended up crucifying the Son of God afresh and put Him to an open shame all throughout the church age with our own man made doctrine,in essence, the Word died again in all the churches, just as Joseph died in Egypt, but the children of Israel were instructed to carry Joseph's body with them to the land of Canaan. When we finally understood to come out of the church as satan was standing during the first 2300 evening mornings, although most people had no idea during this time, and were even still in the churche, that we had a very dead and man made gospel all throughout the church age. Do you think that this is what the "bones" of Jeremiah 8 could represent?
