TheProblemofPain

(ByRev.GodricKean,K.C.H.S.i

Theproblemofsufferingisanancientone.Ithasengagedthebest minds.Thevirtuousseemtohave morethantheirshare,andthewicked less.Withthelatter,thingsseemto prosper;andwiththeformerthey seemtogowrong.Itisaconcomitantofhumanexistence.Physically andmorallyitisalwayswithit.No effortcanbanishit.Ifitsdistributionappearsunequal,itsintensityisno _lessvaried.Thenoblestnaturessuffermost.Themoreworthytheideal, themorerefinedthemind,themore delicatetheorganism,thenallthemore susceptiblebecomestheindividualto paininitsacutestform.

IntheOldLawandintheNewone thisproblemhaspresenteditselfasa challengetotheactionofDivineProvidence.TheJewishlawandthe ChristianDispensationhavebeenconfrontedwithit.IntheBookofWisdomitisstatedofthejustthat"They sufferedtormentsinthesightofmen": "Theywereafflicted";"Godtried them":"Asgoldinthefurnacehehas provedthem":"Theyshallbewellrewarded;becauseGodhathtriedthem andfoundthemworthyofHimself."

Andofthewickeditisasserted:"They shallbepunishedaccordingtotheir owndevices,forhethatrejectedwisdomanddisciplineisunhappy,"and "Dreadfularetheendsofawicked race"(Wisdom3).

Theprosperityofthewickedand theadversityofthejustareadmirably setoutintheseventy-secondpsalm. Intheopeningverse,whilerecognising God'sgoodness,thedangeroftheProplemofsufferingisreferredto.It hasalmostcausedtheprophet'sfeetto slipfromtherightpath.Hecompares hieownscourgingandchastisement withtheaffluenceandcomfortofbad men.Hesumsup:"Beholdtheseare sinners,andaboundingintheworld theyhaveobtainedriches.""AndI said:thenhaveIinvainjustifiedmy heart."Butitisnotso.Headds:

"IfIshouldspeakthus,beholdIshould condemnthegenerationofthychildren.IstudiedthatImightknow thisthing."Thereisnoanswerhere. "Itisalabour,"hesays,"inmysight; untilIgointothesanctuaryofGod, andunderstandconcerningtheirlast ends"(Ps.72).Itwastheanswerof theJewishChurch.Thesameproblemandthesameanswerwefindin theNewLaw.

SufferingisInevitable, ToHisfollowersthepromisesof Christare:"Youshallbeafflicted"; "Youshallbeputtodeath";"You shallbehated"(Matt.24).Theverificationofthesepromisesisdescribed bySt.Paul:"Webothhungerand thirst,"hesays,"andarenakedand arebuffeted,andhavenofixedabode. Wearereviled. Wearepersecuted. ...Weareblasphemed.Wearemade astherefuseofthisworld:theoffscouringsofall."Andhesumsupthe hopelessness,asfarasthisworldis concerned,ofanysolution."Ifinthis lifeonly,"hesays,"wehavehope,we areofallmenmostmiserable"(Cor., xv,19).Butweareassureditisnot all."Afterwards,saystheApostle, "theend.""IfIfoughtwithwild beastsatEphesuswhatdothitprofit me,ifthedeadrisenotagain?"The endislifeeverlasting:"Normourning, norcrying,norsorrowshallbeanymore."ForHewhosatonthethrone said:"BeholdImakeallthingsnew' (Apoc.21).

Sufferingandsorrow,then,mustbe everwithus.Thereisnohuamnremedyforthem.Theymustbeendured. Theireffectsmaybemodifiedoralleviated,buttheyremain.Humanity mustbearitscross,andwemustall drinkofthebitterchalice.Butthis isnqtwithoutavail;fortheworldis governedbyanall-wiseGod.Heis anall-powerfulonealso.And,strange asitmayseem,sufferingbringsout thesetwodivineattributesinaparticularmanner.Godispatient:He toleratesevil.Heismerciful:Heforgivessin.Buttodrawgoodfromevil, gladnessfromsadness;todrawfrom wrongthatwhichisright,in'preferencetoallowingnothingwrongto exist-hereisrequiredinfinitewisdom andinfinitepower."AndGodhas judgeditbetter.'saysSt.Augustine, "todogoodfromthatwhichisevil, thantopermitnoevilatall."There areimportantreasonswhyGodpermitsevil.andwecanallputtoagood andprofitableusetheafflictionswe endureifwereflectupontheircause andtheirobjects.

"Neitherthismannorhisparents," repliedOurLord,"butthattheworks ofGodshouldbemanifestinhim" (Johnix).Healsostated,ontheoccasionofthedeathofLazarus,that theinfirmitywasforthegloryofGod, thattheSonofGodmightbeglorified.InafflictionsandtrialswerecogniseGod'sdominionoverus,and inourdeliveryfromsuchGodshould beglorified.
