Why does God allow suffering?
La Bibbia non dà una formula ordinata, ma dà un Dio che entra nella sofferenza invece di rimanervi distante. Il dolore è entrato per un mondo rotto; Dio fa concorrere al bene anche cose dolorose, e alla croce ha sofferto con e per noi.

Much suffering traces back to a world broken by sin (Genesis 3; Romans 8:20–22), where human choices and a fallen creation cause real pain. Scripture is honest about this; whole books like Job and Lamentations wrestle with it without easy answers.
Yet the Bible insists God is not absent in our suffering. He promises to work “all things together for the good of those who love Him” (Romans 8:28), to comfort us so that we can comfort others (2 Corinthians 1:3–4), and to use trials to deepen character and hope (Romans 5:3–4).
Most strikingly, God does not stay outside our pain: in Jesus he suffered with us and for us, and he promises a future where “He will wipe away every tear” and death is no more (Revelation 21:4). The cross is God’s answer that suffering is neither meaningless nor the end of the story.
