...loved Christ when he performed miracles but when he asked for people to change their lives, they don't love him so much anymore. A lot of people are satisfied with what they are doing and that causes problems. A lot of the world sees suffering as the greatest evil and must be avoided but God sees suffering to overcome sin.
