The Christian church has responded to the Coronavirus pandemic in various ways. Rev. Tony Spell suggested that true Christinas don’t mind dying while Kenneth Copeland has claimed to have destroyed the Coronavirus through prayer and the utilization of the “Breathe of God.” Some Church leaders see COVID-19 as a weapon used by Satan in spiritual warfare against the Church, others say it’s the wrath of God released on a wickedly sinful people.

One thing that is common amongst the human experience is that we all hate suffering. We tend to view it strictly as a form of punishment and condemnation. Anyone that we see in a condition of suffering we instantly feel compelled to do something about it. We have a desire to help free them from the grip of suffering in any way we can. But there is relevance in suffering and we should be open to the experience instead of living a life trying to avoid it.
