Lesson 19, Part 2: Understanding Suffering: Why Does God Allow Sin, Evil, and Personal Suffering? Suffering Because of God’s Intervention
Last week we heard about how our actions bring on much of our own suffering. Tonight we're going to hear about several categories of undeserved suffering and how God uses them for our benefit. For unbelievers, God uses suffering as a wake-up call to turn them to faith in Christ. For believers, this suffering can motivate us to spiritual growth. We need to remember that we are being observed by others when we suffer to see if we are trusting God and are joyful.
