Why suffering and death? Why is there so much suffering in the world? Why is there death? Who is the cause of trouble and sorrow? Is it God? Does God make people sick? Did God plan death? How can God be a God of love and allow suffering and decay? Is there any hope of release? Will it always go on like this? What kind of world did God make? "God saw every thing that he had made, and behold, it was very good.  And the evening and the morning where the sixth day" (Genesis 1:31).  Very good means that it was a world without sin, suffering, and death when it came from the hand of God. God made a perfect world.  But when sin came into the world, what happened? "Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children, and he shall rule over thee" (Genesis 3:16).  Notice here that sorrow and pain came into the world as a result of sin.  God did not create sorrow and pain; it came in as a result of sin. What else came into the world as a result of sin? "But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou thereof thou shalt surely die" (Genesis 2:17).  Death was not planned by which is sin.  Of course, Adam did not die immediately, but his body did begin to wear out.  God had given him such a perfect body that it look 930 years for it to wear out and die (see Genesis 5:5). "Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field; in the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it thou taken; for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return" (Genesis 3:18,19).  Again, we cannot blame God for thorns, thistles, and a hot climate that makes a man sweat; these came as a result of sin. The Devil Brought Sin into the World Are Adam and Eve the originators of sin? "He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning" (1 John 3:8). Read this also John 8:44: "Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do.  He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him.  When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it." Note: The devil is the one who brought murder into existence, and he is the father of all lies, which means that all lying started with him.
