Of course, that was the point of my post.

Jesus was both Son of Man and Son of God. he took human flesh and experienced all our wants and sufferings from abandonment, betrayal, and fear to desertion, hunger, thirst, love, tears, fear, and feelings of hopelessness (being forsaken).

So if the Son of Man has experienced every imaginable pain and suffering, He understands that fallen man lives in a world of suffering and pain. He Himself experienced it.

Worldly suffering is not a basis to ask “How Can A Good God” allow for tsunamis and earthquakes or allow for the Nazi Holocaust. Christ came to redeem mankind and allow us to share of his eternal kingdom if we so choose.

The headline of this thread is simply an attention grabber and nothing more.
