Fur<strong>the</strong>r Theories about<br />
Suffering<br />
● Suffering tests and teaches <strong>the</strong> righteous. "But <strong>the</strong><br />
Lord chastises those who are close to him in order<br />
to admonish <strong>the</strong>m" (Judith 8:27).<br />
● Suffering is also <strong>the</strong> consequence <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> free will<br />
exercised by o<strong>the</strong>rs who are evil. (Cain murdering<br />
Abel) = You cannot have free will without <strong>the</strong><br />
possibility <strong>of</strong> people abusing it---but God will<br />
punish <strong>the</strong> evil and reward <strong>the</strong> good, if not in this<br />
life, in <strong>the</strong> one to come.<br />
● Suffering for God is a holy act (think <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
suffering prophets or <strong>the</strong> Maccabean Martyrs)
