TKD540 asked:


Many things in the world are unfair. People having billions and then three billion people in the universe working for under 2 dollars a day. People die, starve, and experience great suffering. How do you think God will accomodate them for this, considering that its already in the past and it will eternally be engraved in reality?

    For it is written that those who suffered in life shall get good parking spaces in Heaven, plus unlimited use of the HOV lanes. So it is written, so shall it be.

    God’s reward isn’t based on suffering. It’s based on believing.

    The kingdom of heaven will be theirs. It is in the bible.

    Many things appear unfair to the human way of thinking. But God may see things differently. This is a totally unanswerable question except for a person to provide their opinion, which of course is always correct, the opinion, not the answer.

    I think God will treat everyone the same, I would hate to think that just b/c I didn’t go hungry or I didn’t suffer as much as someone else that God would accommodate me less.

    By destroying their consciousness so that they will no longer suffer and no longer desire not to suffer or desire to be rewarded for previous suffering. Pisses alot of people off but he gets the job done.

    Well… If I believed in God… and I don’t… I would say that people would be rewarded for their belief in God if they sincerely believed and acted in God’s name. I don’t know. I hide from religion. It’s too much, too hard. Too many people die in the name of God… first one must decide what acting in God’s name means. I say if it means caring, loving, helping, and not killing other people that don’t agree with you, God will do whatever those people think he does.

    ITS AS EASY FOR A CAMEL TO GO THROUGH THE EYE OF A NEEDLE, AS A RICH MAN ENTER INTO KINGDOM OF GOD.

    Sadly, I don’t think there is a reward for suffering. God didn’t intend for us to suffer, so why would He reward us for it. It is up to people to take their lives to a better stage.

  13. Joseph S on September 23rd, 2008 10:30 pm

    by giving them a second life to suffer in… im joking, i like the above joke about free parking :-)
    But the rewards are as stated in Revelation 21-3 “…and He will wipe out every tear from their eyes and death will be no more, for the former things have passed away.” In other words once Armaggedon comes everyone who is saved will be “rewarded” with a perfect life free from suffering sorrow misery, sin…as they have all perished with the rest of the world.

    Simple, God promised everlasting life in pardise for those of his children that do his will. Those that have suffer doing good deeds, or deeds of the Lord shall be blessed when the Lord is ready to bless them, no different from those that didn’t suffer. Those that have suffered in their wrong doing suffer as punishment and will continue to suffer horribly if they don’t change their ways. We may see it as unnecessary suffering but not in the Lords eyes. Trust me he has his reason. Reward is based upon your faith and loyalty to God And if you’ve suffered, hopfully u suffered so sumone else doesn’t have to.

  15. Oleg B on September 27th, 2008 9:14 pm

    How you, yourself would award an ignorant who’s suffering is selfinflicted? a little compassion, may be? Same way God does…just teaching us over and over again…Gosh , how deep ignorants we are…

    ultimately HEAVEN !!

    and i’m sure that when they have died, they’ll realise that everything they suffered through in life was worth it, because heaven is such a great place!

    and God, who IS love, rewards them with the best happiness!! nothing on this entire Earth could reward them as much as God does because he showers them with ultimate happiness.

    THE BEATITUDES are famous part of the Bible!!

    Blessed are the poor in spirit,
    for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
    Blessed are they who mourn,
    for they shall be comforted.
    Blessed are the meek,
    for they shall possess the earth.
    Blessed are they who hunger and thirst for justice,
    for they shall be satisfied.
    Blessed are the merciful,
    for they shall obtain mercy.
    Blessed are the pure of heart,
    for they shall see God.
    Blessed are the peacemakers,
    for they shall be called sons of God.
    Blessed are they who suffer persecution for justice sake,
    for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

    What’s with all the god questions all of the sudden?

    There is no god. Hence no accomodation.

  18. wizzards_23 on October 5th, 2008 2:56 am

    The Bible says that when we die there will be no more pain, tears, or suffering, and that God is the Ultimate Judge who judges those who have wronged us. That’s good enough for me.

    Angels are angels because they wear suffering on their backs (that is what their wings are made of) to keep them moving forward in empathy. In other words, the people that suffer most will find true peace in the very fact they suffered as long as it doesn’t become rage or regret. Trust me, we all exist and we all suffer the same. It all depends on our perspective.

  20. Kristhiane F. on October 10th, 2008 9:26 am

    Every second, each person receives rewards for the benefits they do to others and receive punishment for the evil they do. You don’t need to go to another life to receive rewards, once you start receiving them right here and right now. Every evil you do puts your mind in a state of confusion and illusion: you become a little bit (or a big bit. – depending of what you have done) more stupid, weak, emotionally uncontrolled, uncapable of doing.
    Every good action you do puts your mind in a state of clarity of thought, and you become each time more intelligent, strong, self-controlled, capable of understanding and capable of doing things.

    In the end, this means that the 3 billion people in the world, if they really do suffer, as you say they do, are receiving just what they deserve. Otherwise, you don’t believe that God is Justice.

    Since the concept of god was created by primitive barbarians to explain the unknown universe, its hard to answer what reward a he would give to those that suffer.
