It seems that the Bible implies that God at times makes believers suffers on his own demand. Typically when something bad happens a Christian will say "God doesn't cause pain it's the devil" but how true is this?
Acts 9:16
I will show him how much he must suffer for my name."
Philippians 1:29
"For it has been granted to you on behalf of Christ not only to believe in him, but also to suffer for him,"
1 Peter 4:19
So then, those who suffer according to God's will should commit themselves to their faithful Creator and continue to do good.
1 Peter 3:17
For it is better, if it is God's will, to suffer for doing good than for doing evil.
Acts 9:16
I will show him how much he must suffer for my name."
Philippians 1:29
"For it has been granted to you on behalf of Christ not only to believe in him, but also to suffer for him,"
1 Peter 4:19
So then, those who suffer according to God's will should commit themselves to their faithful Creator and continue to do good.
1 Peter 3:17
For it is better, if it is God's will, to suffer for doing good than for doing evil.
