In the cause of interrogation, the police sometimes use
torture to get a suspect to co-operate or comply. In a sense, the suspect has
become obedient or submissive.
Today, some Christians believe God, with suffering and pain,
forces people to obey Him. No way! God is not a terrorist. God does not employ
the strategies of the devil to train up His children. He is Love, and love does not torture.
However, in obeying God and and living a godly life, we may have to endure pain and suffering
(i.e. insults, rejection, persecution, etc.) from others. But at the end we
will come to learn that our obedience has produced fruit leading others to the
knowledge of Christ.
Be assured that the suffering of today is no where compared
to the glory that is about to be revealed in
you. Be strong and take courage. Shalom!!!
