Question for the Christians posting.

I mean no disrespect as I was raised Catholic myself but I've started questioning a lot. I have a question that no one's ever been able to answer. If everything that happens is God's will, then why do innocent children die of cancer every day, why are they born with horrific birth defects, why would God want a child to suffer in this way? From a mom who's lived it first hand.

God is not the author of evil satan is
Who gave satan power ? mankind
in many cases in the Bible Christ was asked "Who sinned "?
and he said no one ,,the child was born with a purpose
ever been in a cancer ward ,burn unit ?
None of them are blaming God ,they are making peace with what might come
When Saul was killing Christians ,,were they lost ?
or was their suffering over
The Bible says they are reserved for the day of the Lord
for us to be comforted with the knowledge they will not be left in the grave
that at the last trump of God ,all who belong to God will be raised to life again and all of us will go with Christ
who's names remain in the book of life

Why do bad things happen to good people ,,
cancer has been brought upon man ,by man
Its on the rise ,,
why do kids suffer and die in Africa ,,why do adults keep cranking them out when they know they don't have enough resources for themselves ?

The Papacy teach's you go to purgatory ,,or hell
only people who have witnessed miracles and done good deeds go right to heaven ,,the Pope has to saint them
they have even dug up bodies and put them on trial ,,fact
But that is not supported by the Bible ,that is a tradition of men ,,,though I know I will make some mad
not much the Papacy does is Holy ,,its a life of traditions that lead men to stray from the written word of God
And how do I know this ? right from the horses mouth

@rckt148 🤦‍♀️
@rckt148 Dang! I kind of wish that wasn't pure heresy! I earned a life's worth of indulgence years ago. I could pretty much spend the rest of my life in Vegas having a fantastic time without a care in the world!

@puck61 Luther actually mocked the practice and said if all you needed was relics ,,he had enough to buy his whole family out of purgatory
