: How can people say there’s a loving caring God when there’s so much unfairness and injustice in the world?
“IF” there is a God, then he would have to be a God that doesn’t care about anyone on Earth, even his followers! Because people who worship him, are being killed, raped, robbed, daily! There is NO way a loving caring God could exist, because if it did it would not be able to sit idly by and watch his faithful followers be victimized here on Earth!

Genesis- read it. This world is a curse of suffering and death for disobedience. If you want it to be other than that then you make it so. God offers life without pain or sorrow after the punishment if you choose it.
It’s amazing to me that people can’t seem to understand that it’s their choices and actions that determine unfairness and injustice. God does not make people change, but He does make people choose. How would you like it if God removed your freedom to choose how you live your life?Answer by Yana Pedinova
Humans make the unfairness and unjustice, not God. It’s humans faults. That’s how I always thought about it :]Answer by lostnsavd
Dear Friend,
Man’s heart is corrupt and wicked without God. God is in the heart changing business, but not everyone wants to surrender their will for God’s will.
Jesus was rejected, and God’s chosen will be also. This is not our world. It is ruled by Satan. Man messes up his own life and then blames God instead of the wrong decisions they make. Interesting.
Answer by Sarah SVIt’s not up to Him to make sure nothing happens. It’s because of humanity itself that we have gotten to this point of violence. None of this violence would be happening if we would follow God’s wisdom on what we should or shouldn’t do. Also, God says in Revelation, that he will rid of all evil on this Earth, and we will live for eternity in Paradise.
He helps guide us, but it’s up to us to choose our paths. It’s all a process of life on Earth, evil will remain until we are all cleansed.Answer by I got you babe ♥ ♪ ☼
Exactly. The christian folks willingly remain BLIND to this as you can see here. Yes, I can see how god is “for” everybody here and “helping” everybody here! No personal offense to anyone is intended – just quoting scripture like they do. But it’s really amazing how deep in to the abyss of denial the religiously inclined will actually go.
“And I [the LORD] will cause them to eat the flesh of their sons and the flesh of their daughters, and they shall eat every one the flesh of his friend.” – Jeremiah 19:9
“Then you shall eat the offspring of your own body, the flesh of your sons and of your daughters whom the LORD your GOD has given you” – Deuteronomy 28:53
“The King asked her, ‘What’s the matter?’ This woman said to me, ‘Give up your son so we may eat him today, and tomorrow we’ll eat my son.’ So we cooked my son and ate him. The next day I said to her, ‘Give up your son so we may eat him,’ but she had hidden him….The king said, behold, this EVIL is of the LORD.” – 2 Kings 6:28-29,33
“She will hide from them the afterbirth and the new baby she has borne, so that she herself can secretly eat them. She will have nothing else to eat during the siege and terrible distress that your enemy will inflict on all your towns.” – Deuteronomy 28:57
“And I [the LORD] will feed them that oppress thee with their own flesh; and they shall be drunken with their own blood, as with sweet wine.” – Isaiah 49:26
“I [the LORD] told them, ‘I won’t be your shepherd any longer. If you die, you die. If you are killed, you are killed. And let those who remain devour each other!'” – Zechariah 11:9
Answer by https://www.bible-reviews.com1) How can people say there’s a loving caring God when there’s so much unfairness and injustice in the world?
It’s pretty easy. Try it.
2) “IF” there is a God, then he would have to be a God that doesn’t care about anyone on Earth, even his followers! Because people who worship him, are being killed, raped, robbed, daily!
Conclusion does not follow logically from the premise.
3) There is NO way a loving caring God could exist, because if it did it would not be able to sit idly by and watch his faithful followers be victimized here on Earth!
Conclusion does not follow logically from the premise.
Consider the concept of **eternal life in Paradise**. How much pain and misery would you be willing to suffer during a period of 80 or so years if you knew that you would receive **eternal life in Paradise** at the end of it? Wouldn’t *any* amount of pain and misery be worth such a reward? In fact, wouldn’t 80 years of uninterrupted pain and misery be quite literally insignificant when compared to eternal life in Paradise?
God offers his worshipers eternal life in Paradise. It is quite literally infinitely more than him stopping a murder, or stopping a rape, or stopping a robbery. God offers his worshipers *literally* infinitely more than you think a caring God *should* offer his worshipers.
So: isn’t God – by definition – *infinitely* caring of his worshipers? And more to the point: infinitely more caring than you expect him to be?

Answer by Bill BurtonThe simple answer is to have God kill the bad people. The question would arise as to who would be left. The answer would be ‘none’.
Read Romans 3:10-20 and understand that none are deserving of LIFE itself.
But, God has a tremendous plan for the future where he will “… wipe away all tears fron their eyes, and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow or crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away” (Rev. 21:4)
The rule of God is coming to this earth in the future from Christ sitting on a throne in a temple HE will build in Jerusalem (read the last nine chapters of Ezekiel), yet many will rebel against HIS righteous rule. At the end of that 1,000 year reign the world will have no sin into eternity.
For now we live in a veil of tears and suffering because man is inherently evil.
The opportunity by the grace of God for each soul now is to receive Christ as dying (being punished for all their sins) that you might enter the spiritual kingdom of God and be prepared for the physical kingdom to come.
All the best in your search for simple Godly answers to hard questions.Answer by Liz
There is a plan and God’s followers KNOW that plan.
How many would worship God ONLY for security or prosperity?
Hebrews 6:10 For God is not unrighteous so as to forget YOUR work and the love YOU showed for his name, in that YOU have ministered to the holy ones and continue ministering. 11 But we desire each one of YOU to show the same industriousness so as to have the full assurance of the hope down to the end, 12 in order that YOU may not become sluggish, but be imitators of those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.
Hebrews 11:
1 Faith is the assured expectation of things hoped for, the evident demonstration of realities though not beheld
5 By faith E´noch was transferred so as not to see death, and he was nowhere to be found because God had transferred him; for before his transference he had the witness that he had pleased God well. 6 Moreover, without faith it is impossible to please [him] well, for he that approaches God must believe that he is and that he becomes the rewarder of those earnestly seeking him.
8 By faith Abraham, when he was called, obeyed in going out into a place he was destined to receive as an inheritance; and he went out, although not knowing where he was going. 9 By faith he resided as an alien in the land of the promise as in a foreign land, and dwelt in tents with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the very same promise.
13 In faith all these died, although they did not get the [fulfillment of the] promises, but they saw them afar off and welcomed them and publicly declared that they were strangers and temporary residents in the land.
IF you TRULY love someone, not for what you can get from them but respect them and love them, you will in faith go to death for them. And GOD is NOT so unrighteous as to forget that, ESPECIALLY in this day and age where people won’t cross the street or respect their neighbors property or homes or family.
Tell me how many people do serve God even if they do his will are persecuted for it and will understand that THIS isn’t the REAL life, the life he purposed but purposes for the future?
Answer by Puppy Power!Well, you can notice, how in your mind, you can recognize a so obvious contrast between so much unfairness and injustice in the world, and the way things would be better to be. That is evidence that there can be something bigger and better than so much unfairness and injustice in the world.
If you focus too much on the so much unfairness and injustice in the world, your attention and considerations aren’t so much brought to the things that can make it better. They are too occupied with negative considerations. Thusly, positive considerations, are made foreign to you, unbelievable, foolish, crazy, even seen as evil or destructive.
If there were a God, than mankind could only relate( even perceive it, let alone experience it) with His Good, in the things they were at least willing to consider about it, and if there’s so much unfairness and injustice in the world, it would only be because of what they would refuse to acknowledge of that Goodness. Of which, it would be perfectly explainable why there is so much unfairness and injustice in the world, especially for the matter that there are even some people who won’t even acknowledge that God( that something so good even can) even exists.Answer by Ajsansker
Because on the other end of the scale is a hate-filled, malignant Bastard working in total opposition.
You think it’s a one-sided game?Answer by باران بهار
It is so that the unfairness and injustice will never have the chance to happen again.
A loving, caring God does exist. And he will right the wrongs that have happened.
Isaiah 65:17 says: “For here I am creating new heavens and a new earth; and the former things will not be called to mind, neither will they come up into the heart.”
When the time comes for him to exercise his sovereignty over the earth, he will provide complete healing. The painful things that individuals have experienced will not even be called to their minds at that time.
Revelation 21:4 says further of that time: “And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”
So all the reasons for pain and distress will be gone, replaced by peace, security and happiness.
As for why such horrible things are being allowed to happen right now, it is because the question of whether or not mankind was better off without God’s direction and intervention was raised in the garden of Eden. Time is being allowed for that question to be answered. If God intervened in the meantime, an inaccurate answer would be given.

Answer by MindyNo dude, again you are mistaken (as you once were regarding “hell”). Be just as open as you were regarding the erroneous / blasphemous man-made teaching that the God who IS Love (1 John 4:8 / https://bit.ly/qp2De2 ) sends bad people to roast for all eternity in agonizing unending pain: index;_ylt=AkcPvkJhoy6rZxG2NGAtHjPty6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20110623124018AA600PM
Please, you are a REASONABLE and INTELLIGENT person who has the RIGHT to know the answers, the RIGHT to have your questions answered! No one enjoys being lied to, and by God that is exactly what the religions of Christendom (who profess to be Christian) have done and in so doing have destroyed the struggling faith of countless BILLIONS of people!
You want THE answer as to why Almighty God allows suffering? Do you?
You’re about to get it right NOW, I’m absolutely dead serious.
Please get any copy of the Bible, sit down and pay close attention to what is about to be relayed to you herein. I am one of God’s true worshipers that his Son referred to at John 4:23, 24 and there ARE literally MILLIONS of others like me worldwide (a few of them have also provided the Truth to you in response to your question).
People of various religions have gone to their religious leaders and teachers to ask why there is so much suffering. Often, the response is that suffering is God’s will and that he long ago determined everything that would ever happen, including tragic events. Many are told that God’s ways are mysterious or that he brings death upon people—even children—so that he can have them in heaven with him. As you have learned, though, Jehovah God never causes what is bad. The Bible says: “Far be it from the true God to act wickedly, and the Almighty to act unjustly!”—Job 34:10.
Do you know why people make the mistake of blaming God for all the suffering in the world? In many cases, they blame Almighty God because they think that he is the real ruler of this world. They do not know a simple but important truth that the Bible teaches… The real ruler of this world is Satan the Devil, NOT God the Almighty! See and READ this Truth for yourself in the scriptures within the following link: https://bit.ly/p58hJy
The Bible crystal clearly states at 1 John 5:19: “The whole world is lying in the power of the wicked one.”
When you think about it, does that not make sense? This world reflects the personality of the invisible, wicked spirit creature who is “misleading the entire inhabited earth” according to Revelation 12:9). Satan the Devil is hateful, deceptive, and cruel. So the world, UNDER HIS INFLUENCE, is full of hatred, deceit, and cruelty. That is one reason why there is so much suffering.
A second reason why there is so much suffering is that mankind has been imperfect and sinful ever since the rebellion in the garden of Eden. Sinful humans tend to struggle for dominance, and this results in wars, oppression, and suffering. (Ecclesiastes 4:1; 8:9) A third reason for suffering is “time and unforeseen occurrence.” (Ecclesiastes 9:11) In a world without Jehovah as a protective Ruler, people may suffer because they happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.
It is comforting for us to know that God does not CAUSE suffering. He is not responsible for the wars, the crimes, the oppression, or even the natural disasters that cause people to suffer. Still, we need to know, Why does Jehovah allow all this suffering? If he is the Almighty, he has the power to stop it. Why, then, does he hold back? The loving God that we have come to know must have a good reason.—1 John 4:8.
Now you simply need to know WHY God Almighty ALLOWS suffering when He obviously has the power to immediately put it to an end (I mean what’s the point of being ALMIGHTY if you can’t do that). You MUST come to understand the all important, SERIOUS GREAT UNIVERSAL ISSUE that has been raised toward God. Once you understand this you will better be able to grasp the ENORMITY of the situation and see that it is MUCH bigger than you, I or any humans on earth… It involves ALL intelligent life in the both the spiritual unseen universe and the physical seen universe!!!
This great issue had to be settled and the good news is that it HAS been settled and the time is VERY near for God to act and set things straight, to cause things to be as they were MEANT to be! You must remember that because God is ALMIGHTY He also has the power to completely UNDO all of the misery that we have experienced and that He is on a completely different time table than we imperfect human are. 1,000 of our years is but only one day to Him and one day to Him is as 1,000 of our years (2 Peter 3:8 / https://bit.ly/qa6GVO ). It only SEEMS like God is taking a long time to take action, but to Him it has been only a few days… We’re the ones who are messed up and imperfect, not Him.
Learn about the GREAT ISSUE that I am referring to and learn the Truth!
