Tuesday's lunch bar saw the question of whether the God in the bible, who is all powerful, all knowing, all loving and always present, why would He allow to see people go through suffering.
Russel confronted this issue head on with his own story of suffering from 12 years ago, and the impact that event had on him and his family. Although different circumstances see people suffering in a variety of different ways, it is the same God who is there throughout this time.
When Jesus died on the cross he went through a very real and painful experience in which he suffered and died as a man, and that is why he can relate to us when we are going through painful events in our own lives. Due to being a sinful race that have fallen short, we need our imperfections to be covered by someone who has not sinned. The only one who is eligible to take this is Jesus. And on the cross he took it for each and every person who ever lived or will live, because of the great love He has for those He created!
