God Will Soon End All Suffering

"How long, O Jehovah, must I cry for help, but you do not hear?  How long must I ask for help from violence, but you do not intervene?"  (Habakkuk 1:2, 3) These are the words of Habakkuk. a good man who enjoyed God's favor.  Di his plea indicated a lack of faith? By no means!  God assured Habakkuk that He had an appointed time to bring end to suffering. - HABAKKUK 2:2, 3.

When you or someone close to you is suffering, it is easy to conclude that God is slow to act, that he should have intervened by now.  Yet, the Bible assures us:  "Jehovah is  not slow concerning his promise as some people consider slowness, but he is patient with you because he does not desire anyone to be destroyed but desires all to attain to repentance." - 2 PETER 3:9. 

WHEN WILL GOD ACT?

Very soon!  Jesus revealed that a particular generation would witness a unique combination of conditions that would mark  the last days of a "system of things."  (Matthew 24:3-42)  The fulfillment of Jesus' prophecy in our day indicates that God's intervention in human affairs is imminent. 

But how will God  bring an end to all suffering?  When Jesus was on the earth, he demonstrated God's power to alleviate mankind's suffering.  Consider some examples of this.
