Why Do The Righteous Suffer?
Episode description
The Bible often asks the question, why do the wicked prosper? We can tend to ask this question too but, many times, what we want to know is: why do the righteous suffer? We can be convinced that it's fine that the wicked prosper as long as it doesn't mean our frustration or misery.
In this message originally given in Columbus, Ohio, we go through the Old and New Testaments to find examples of people who, like us, questioned God's judgement in dealing with both the righteous and the wicked and, hopefully, take away three points.
1. We are not righteous (though Christ's righteousness is ascribed to us).
2. Fortunately, the wicked still have hope.
3. Thankfully, God's ways are not our ways.
