Of course he does. God never promised his followers that they wouldn't suffer.
I'm Christian now. Now I know that an all-powerful and all-knowing God had all the power to save that good person that he knew was being beaten and raped from being beaten and raped and he chose not to save them just for funsies... I am now a Christian.
Thank you Lek. You make perfect sense.
