Suffering

Well if you are going to put your love onto some thing, then you are going to have to hold the same thing responsible for your pain when it comes. Such is the human way – the way of suffering.

That’s why there’s all this stuff about suffering in Christianity. The people put their love onto Jesus. So now they’ve got to handle the pain of his passing. It’s all happening in the Christians though, not in Christ itself.

Christ is not about suffering. Christ is about living in the Kingdom. It’s only silly humans that get caught up in suffering, but they can’t see it because they are viewing the suffering from a place of suffering. A problem cannot ever be solved in the same place that it is created. Christ is to rise above suffering, not by focusing on it and glorifying it, but by coming to God.
