Suffice in Correction
Is there a logical reason for HARDSHIPS in the presence of a LOVING GOD?
Job 2:10 …….What? shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil?……..
The Last Days and The Last Day.
Before we do get to the topic on suffering, there is one more stumbling block to overcome and that is question regarding the last days. I was also one of those, whose will too listen to Biblical truths was somewhat cooled off, when looking at the last days and trying to establish meaning pertaining to the significance of the last days. Everyone always said and so was my own train of thought, that the last days were spoken of two thousand years ago. How long are the last days then? Does the Bible have a never-ending plan for the world, or is there a final end? It seems as if the end is continuous. This is exactly what Peter was drawing on in 2Peter 3: 4 – 7.
Well, let’s see what is really meant by this. Can we take this in a literal sense or not? If the Scriptures are Holy inspired, then the answer should be found in the Bible. The Bible has many apparent contradictions, yet when one really delves into the studying of the Scriptures prayerfully, the Scriptures in its original context disprove any contradiction. There is a bigger picture to be found. Scripture always interprets Scripture and extended study will always permeate into a better understanding of the Bible, as a whole.

I’ve spent many a day praying about the answer to this question and this my dear readers, this IS THE ANSWER to the question that evades everyone so much.
The answer is, absolutely, but in a very ‘counterfeit’ sort of way. You see, Satan can cause sickness, and mankind is born into a sinful evil world. What you see as being a miraculous healing by today’s false prophets is none other than Satan taking away the sickness / injury he had given the person in the first place. Satan can not do any good, he is the father of LIES.
In the bible there is a story of a woman who walked bent over for 18 years. It was a demonic spirit which caused this infirmity. Jesus healed her and she walked upright.
Luke 13:11-13 11 And behold, there was a woman who had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bent over and could in no way raise herself up.12 But when Jesus saw her, He called her to Him and said to her, “Woman, you are loosed from your infirmity.” 13 And He laid His hands on her, and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God.
But what about creative healings you ask, an arm with crushed bones starts to slowly fix itself and heal?
