Whats going on
Suffering, trials & tribulations, or discipline?
If you read the Bible you know that many people died for their faith. Evil unsaved men follow Satan and do evil things to others. It doesnt mean God directed it. God allows it for many reasons, both for the believer to trust and rely on God; whether they survive the trial or enter Heaven after being murder martyred.
Jesus died, Stephen died, many were persecuted and murdered ever since... by leaders in catholicism, and by islamics, hindus, and by regular unsaved people because they align with Satan and hate God and His people.
"Just have concern about properly fearing God, who can cast a person into Hell, so...do not fear man who can only kill you and do nothing else." (verse)
God allows suffering, trials & tribulations to strengthen our faith, to be an example of a obedient servant who trusts God, and it encourages others faith by hearing about the person and situation they were in.
Gid always uses for Good what others had plotted for evil, to bring about a greater purpose. We look at the big picture, not just the here an now or woah as me. We look also to eternal things, not just earthly.
