Joe Rogan Asks Why God Allows So Much Suffering & Death

Many people criticize God for allowing so much death and suffering in the world, but is that a valid complaint? In this video, Ken Ham gives an excellent, Bible-based explanation for death, suffering, and disease in the world.

I used to be a blasphemous hater of God just like these men until about the age of 25. I investigated the major world religions reading their holy books and saved the Bible for last. It's when I read the words of Jesus Christ in the gospels that the Holy Spirit give me faith to believe. That gift of God and his gift of salvation, forgiveness of my sins has kept me for over 40 years now. Pray for these men!

I asked this question as well. I found this answer to be the best answer for me. "I Asked god for strength, and He sent me struggles, hardships, and challenges to overcome. I asked God for wisdom, and he sent me problems to solve. I asked for courage, He sent me dangers to defeat. I asked for love, and He sent me broken people to help. I think God has given me everything I`ve asked, and so much more."

I was 8 riding my bike in a quiet suburb, i was approaching a road cross had checked behind me 30m prior saw no cars, suddenly in my head a.message " God says stop", I stopped .A car came up behind me and was speeding and swerved around the corner i was about to cross, even if my checks were poor for an 8yo i still listened to his command and it stopped me from getting pummeled by that car. I knew then, there is a God but grew up with atheist parents who criticized church goers as hypocrites. Lived life and when i hit rock bottom at 26 feeling like the worst parent ever i was slumped against a wall wanting to kill myself, that's when i physically felt Jesus put a warm cloak of love over me, i wasnt crying out for him but i knew it was him and realised I need Christ, and to follow him and i have since and my life had turned around.❤

I was at one of our Men's meets one evening and a guy pointed out that some people that were born with a Silver Spoon in there mouth haven't reached out to God because they have never been in need of anything! That speaks volumes... I wasn't born with a silver spoon. Dad passed away when I was 10 years old. Mom married a drunk a couple years later and became one herself. Life was hard.. I have no Doubts that God was watching over my twin brother and myself. I am forever Grateful to our Loving Savior! Thank you Jesus for your Sacrifice and your Love for us all!

I lost my darling firstborn, daughter(41), 9 years ago, then the day before my 72nd bday, I lost my youngest, a precious son(36) on July 4th this year. I do not understand why…I don’t, and my heart is shattered…BUT…I trust Him, with all my heart. “The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away. Blessed be the Name of the Lord.”🙌 I’d rather live through these things, this life, with Him than without Him.❤️

We don't live in the world as God made it, we live in the world as man made it.

I have gone through good and hard times, but something always comes along to help me, I do believe God and Jesus is watching over me.

Our family had slipped away from following God/Jesus in any meaningful way. Then in 2019 our beautiful 19 year old daughter was diagnosed with serious cancer. We could just have blamed God for the situation, but instead we turned back to faith in Him. I can honestly say that it was only the peace of God/Jesus that brought us through the darkest year in our lives and those countless hours in hospital. 

Furthermore, nothing can convince me that prayer does not influence the physical world, as I have seen its impact with my own eyes. Our daughter is now 23 years and doing well. Put your faith and trust only in God/Jesus, not yourself nor any man.

I had a rough childhood. My mom verbal abused me. My father was cold and abusive as well. I was suicidal at 8. I would pray every night for Him to take me. Then I turned my back on Him. Throughout the entire time that I turned away from Him, He was always there. I partied every weekend, started smoking, and got wasted around random people but nothing bad happened to me. A lot of times He pops into my mind but I would shrug it off. He was patient with me, always knocking on my heart. During those times I would always wonder why I was still alive and well. One part of my mind keep saying it was Him protecting me all along but I ignored it. Now that I’m back with Him, I realized that I have come so far. I’m stronger. I forgave my parents. Now I know why He allowed me to suffer. He knows I can overcome it and be a testimony for others like me.

All the “crap” in our world is because of mankind’s sin! God is loving and just.

"Only fools say in their hearts, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, and their actions are evil; not one of them does good!" Psalm 14:1

We’re living in a twice-fallen world (Genesis 3 and Genesis 6) - that things like goodness, love, and beauty still exist testifies to how amazing that original, pristine creation must have been!

[BijoyP-hl]

God is my love that I love, nothing can separate me from Him .

Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." —John 14:6

[karooboermeyer]

They reject God and then blame Him for the consequences of that very rejection

[TheGingerKing]

I can give testimony all day… I was lost young man with terrible ways. Christ grabbed ahold of me like I didn’t have a choice. Prayer without a doubt works!

Dan Barker is wearing a pin of the “Scarlet A” atheist logo that I made back around 2007 or so when I worked with Dawkins. I’m extremely grateful to God that I was shown a way out of that worldview. If you ever run into an atheist wearing one of those scarlet A pins, be sure to tell them the guy who designed that logo is a Christian now. Maybe that could help you witness to them.

I've seen prayer work in the life of my daughter when she had been kidnapped and was being left for dead. Within 30 minutes after praying to God, on my knees, calling out to Him, my daughter was miraculously set free and she returned to us. God does answer prayer. We just have to stop asking for things that are not His will.

Amen Brother Ken 🙏. Every breath we take is a gift and grace of God

The real question should be - even though we chose sin and rejected God, why did he give us so much goodness in this world? How lucky are we, that even tho satan rules this world, that God made sure we have so much "wonderful" here in this temporary realm.
