When God Seems Unjust

Suffering through Injustice

About this book

When someone treats you terribly, it's hard to resist the feelings of bitterness or revenge. Where do you go when the pang of injustice causes suffering? This pamphlet will change your whole perspective on facing betrayal, injury, and loss. When life isn't fair, God is there to bring good out of even the darkest of stories. This pamphlet includes a true story about a woman who was a violent crime victim and ended up wheelchair bound for life. You will read about her journey as she recovered from trauma and now brings hope to countless people going through similar trials in life. Our response to injustice may not be the most natural one, but it should be the one that brings God glory.

This pamphlet will teach you:
  • How to take a Godly approach to suffering through injustice
  • What the Bible says about unfairness through the eyes of Peter, Job, and many more
  • What is God's ultimate plan in the end-times

Covers Common Topics of Justice and Suffering

What's the difference between mercy and justice? How does grace fall into the mix? If God is just, why is there suffering in the world? From the topics of fairness and justice to suffering and obedience, this pamphlet summarizes the most difficult concepts and the biblical views of each. Using the story of Job in the Bible and the more contemporary story of Vicky, you'll have relevant references to help you clearly understand God's view of justice, in the short and long term.
