This was awesome. Jesus said this life would be crap, but to take heart because he has overcome the world. It's the next life that matters, that we should look forward to. Thank you guys!
Divinely mediated joy in the midst of Divinely ordained sufferings, wherein the believer learns: - great and might things he/she knows not - the all-sufficiency of God's Grace - the trappings/deceptions/horrors of the old nature - to love as He loved - the Glories of the Kingdom to come - ... and more ... and more
I think the title of this video is not the best possible because it is impossible to stop trying to make sense of suffering when you understand how much suffering is happening all the times and i am not talking about the ridiculously miniscule amount of suffering of this world, like some wars or rape etc. no, i mean THE suffering, where almost all people end up after they die - Hell itself where people burn day and night without any rest, no sleep, no time outs, no break for even 5 minutes and some of the people were burning for thousands of years already. Why that much suffering is needed is so beyond human comprehension that most people simply ignores it out of their minds and keeps living as if it is not real. Now what we should not be, is too harsh on ourselves for not be able to solve the problem of suffering because all the greatest minds, theologians, philosophers and just thinking men in all history of humanity were all trying to get a satisfying explanation to it and every single one of them failed to do so. Somehow God will give us a justifying reason why He allows so much pain and suffering in the world in the end times.
