The mystery of suffering? “There are no answers to these questions”

 

A) The text of the speech by J.M.Bergoglio:

“This afternoon I went to the Children’s Hospital.  There too Jesus suffers in so many sick children.  And always the question comes to me: “Why do children suffer?”  It is a mystery.  There are no answers to these questions”.

B) References to Scriptures:

You see, there is merit if, in awareness of God, you put up with the pains of undeserved punishment; but what glory is there in putting up with a beating after you have done something wrong? The merit in the sight of God is in putting up with it patiently when you are punished for doing your duty.’” (1Pe 2:19-20)

You will have to suffer only for a little while: the God of all grace who called you to eternal glory in Christ will restore you, he will confirm, strengthen and support you.” (1Pe 5:10)

They have triumphed over him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word to which they bore witness, because even in the face of death they did not cling to life.” (Rev 12:11)

It was fitting that God, for whom and through whom everything exists, should, in bringing many sons to glory, make perfect through suffering the leader of their salvation.” (Heb 2:10)

 

C) Comment:

The mystery of suffering is intrinsic in the Mystery of Salvation of Christ.

What is the answer to the sacrifice of Christ? Why did Christ immolate himself? To save the world. In the economy of God, the mystery of suffering is the basis of the mystery of salvation. Only a disbeliever, in front of the mystery of suffering, would say that “there are no answers”! Only those who do not believe in God and those who do not believe in the Sacrifice of Salvation of Christ, can answer as Bergoglio did.

Consequently, or Bergoglio is totally ignorant of the ABC of the Christian doctrine or Bergoglio deliberately teaches a new doctrine, opposed to that of Jesus, anti-Christ and anti-Christian, that certainly leads to lose the true faith in Christ, and will lead, all those who follow him, into despair and then into the abyss.

Actually Bergoglio manifests his anti-Christian spirit!

For the authentic Christians, the martyrs are those who by their suffering, offered to Christ for love, testify Christ and are united to the Eucharistic sacrifice of Christ, that saves the world. God the Almighty Father, saves the world thanks to the Sacrifice and the suffering of His Son and of all His children that are united to the Most Sacred Heart of Christ, He that immolates Himself and renews His saving sacrifice for the salvation of the whole world in these hard and difficult times.
