Suffering

Why do the wicked seem to prosper?

Sometimes the life of a righteous person seems to us to be far too short. We wish that the Lord might have preserved their lives so that they could have done more good in the world.

Is it wrong to visit a witchdoctor for healing?

In certain circumstances, it seems justifiable to explore every avenue of possible healing.

How can I stay faithful in times of trial?

If you want to live an effective Christian life, then you can expect it to be full of trials. That is the normal Christian experience. James says that when these trials come our way, we should not allow them to get on top of us or think of them as a reason to doubt God’s goodness, but should “consider them joy” because God uses them to develop perseverance in us.

What is happening with the guards in Matthew 28:1-15?

After Jesus had been crucified, He gave up His life and died sooner than the criminals on the crosses either side of Him. Because He was already dead, His legs were not broken like the others as their bodies were taken down so as not to defile the Passover Sabbath.

Joseph of Arimathea was allowed to take Jesus’ body for burial, assisted by Nicodemus, and witnessed by at least two women (Matthew 27:57-61).
