[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are to imitate Christ.  His life on earth  was full of trials, so we should see trials as an opportunity to imitate Christ.

The topic of Satan is not popular in our secular society, but the truth is, he is alive and well.  He loves to throw things like ebola at us which harm us in body and more importantly in soul.

No.  There is no Satan.  There is only God.  And God is doing exactly what God does.  We grow physically and spiritually through difficulty.  There is no way to become more compassionate without going through hardship.  There is no way to learn love without experiencing hatred.  There can be no healing without injury.  Our Universe is one of balance.  As humans, our work is to become more like our God, whatever name you give Him.  In doing so, we create a more compassionate world.

God is just being God.  He can provide love, comfort, and peace.  But He cannot prevent suffering in this world.  If He could, He would[/b]. [/quote]

NP here. I thought god was omnipotent? Not bring snarky, but I don't understand thd idea that god is benevolent and knows and created all, but can't stop that serial killer from killing or that drunk driver from slamming into a stroller. Either god can control everything of not. [/quote]
