God allows evil and suffering to exist in the world
This tests faithfulness to God.
Those who believ in spite of evil, and suffering are truly faithful
EXAMPLES:
Irenaeus - This world is a test. God wants to see how we cope with suffering to prove to him that we deserve to go to the kingdom of heaven.
John Hicks- God wants us to choose to follow him, even through suffering , not like robots, who do as they are commanded.
