Joshua Graham Explains Why Good Men Must Suffer

[@Tom_Framnes]

“ Good men suffer, so they can aspire to become even better men”

[@pertainedorangeman3056]

What's that quote from? I love it

[@GIURIT]

“ Good men subscribe, so they can aspire to ring that bell”

[@theone-tg4ey]

Was and always was a great man, Still am

[@thecommenter9678]

Good men do not NEED to suffer, they simply end up suffering. Because good men do good in the face of evil, and evil will not let that go unchallenged. Its not that god wills it, its that evil wishes to force good to heel, to punish good for defying it. Only good men will continue to stand, enduring more suffering as they continue to refuse to yield to evil. The biggest mistake of religious folk is the idea that suffering is gods will, gods actions, or gods plan. God gave us free will, to be evil, to be good, and to defy evil knowing that we will be hurt by doing so.

[@josephwilliams1915]

You should become a motivational speaker

[@revariox189]

Good and Evil are a question of perspective and not easy to classify. The title of the video implies that Evil people do not suffer. I beg to differ, they usually have suffered so much and cannot Endure anymore and simply go with the easy option. The choice of not enduring the suffering in that same way. Evildoers suffer in a different way once that have chosen to abandon the righteous path. All humans suffer.

[@Sarcastic_Sophist]

I'll share this, I've suffered a lot in my life. Less than many, more than most. Yet the suffering that hurt me most and remains to this day, is not the pain inflicted on me. Rather it was how I took that pain and used it for justification for hurting others. I was callous, self absorbed, and pathetic. Yet I'm grateful I realized the error of my ways. It gives me greater compassion for everyone I meet in life. It is easy to make absolute judgements upon others when you cannot see gravity of your own mistakes. Glad I'm not blind to that anymore.

[@pt5films]

It’s interesting to hear Christian philosophy that’s more nuanced than the usual “these people are bad, we are good, stop being yourself it’s sinful” stuff I’m used to. It expands my perspective.

[@pt5films]

Glad it resonates 🙏

[@MG-bm6dw]

That's because this is the true Christian philosophy. I too was raised to believe the same as you, that we were good and everyone else is bad. I lost faith for a while questioning how everyone else could be wrong, until I realized it was me the whole time. I was wrong, not them. Finding the true meaning has brought back my faith and I've become a much better person as a result. I hope you too will delve into the true meaning, and continue to grow and become the absolute best version of yourself you can be. I don't know you, but I do know you can do it.

[@C.J.Holden]

I for a long time have tried to be a good happy man, trying to escape the demons of my past, endured past sufferings. After dealing with my worst experience of my life at 24. It was the capstone to the saying, good men suffer not just from choices, but circumstances dealt with through years of trial of tribulation. I refuse to believe now it will be good enough, it never will be. We must always do better, no questions asked. Even though I’m better physically than a lot of people around me, it’s not enough. This video gained you another sub. Amen.

"I survived because the fire inside burned brighter than the fire around me. I fell down into that dark chasm, but the flame burned on and on." - Joshua Graham

[@xostler]

God promises to consecrate our affliction for our gain if we take up our cross! I promise this and have seen it in my own life, in my own specific way, with a direct causal link even. Not trying trying to get preachy below just want to encourage. And remember that it’s okay to be hesitant or scared to do hard things. Even Christ cried to the Father to be spared the bitter cup in Gethsemane. This was the agony of every sin, injury, and sickness people can suffer. He suffered this to better succor, or heal, his people. If we use our afflictions to be strong for others, to strengthen and heal others, that is when I have seen the most improvement. Like how they say the best way to learn is to teach. Godspeed friend.

[@shawnk7720]

Future you will have to face situations current you cannot. Please understand that even through suffering it will be temporary and if it is seemingly forever then it is but a moment to your next phase in character. You will become a strong and good tested man.

[@karmadeliveryservice1505]

Suffering of the righteous leads to strength, strength leads to power, power leads to choices that effect others. In order for good to prevail righteous men must have power and in that power comes the true test of righteousness.

[@saintoflastresorts2272]

Pain is inevitable but suffering is a choice. Accept the pain as part of the process. Enjoy the process and you will become less attached to your suffering.

My friend loves this game but he has destroyed his life wallowing in evil. I stood up for what's right I gave him 4 days to clarify he didn't beat his cat but he ran and slandered me to everyone he could that he knew we both knew. He told them not to talk to me but then called one of them a little dicked loser or some such combination and he came to me for a different view. I learned he said I was trying to cancel him because I waited for him to do what's right. He has immersed himself in the suffering and thinks it makes him a good man while I immersed myself in what I believe is right and though I almost had a good example of a bad moment I hope I've come through this trial better in some way. Though I will never see my friend again I will have my self respect and talents which hopefully will help to lead me to better days and a better place. Perhaps with better people but if I must be alone for a time then that is how it is. If I'm strong enough to hurt someone I am strong enough to not hurt someone and I choose to be better now. It doesn't feel like I made the right choice and sometimes it won't feel good at the moment to do the right thing, but in the long run, you will be better off than if you eternally seek immediate pleasure and catharsis. To anyone who sees this I hope it helps in some way. Thank you.

Deuteronomy 30: 15-16 "Do not fear what you are about to suffer. Behold, the devil is about to throw some of you into prison, that you may be tested, and for ten days you will have tribulation.

Sophistry, as I've come to expect from the Graham AI bots. I never cared for him in the games and wonder why so many people latched on to him. I always thought he deserved further punishment and had changed little, he merely traded one warlord for another. Not mention his choice of stories was telling. The Garden of Gethsemane shows the trinity is false because why would Jesus doubt a plan he made himself? Then in recounting Job he neglects to mention god is the author of Job's misery and does so merely to prove a rhetorical point, which seems a poor excuse to destroy a man's life. Then of course bringing up David is another apt parallel considering how much him and Graham are alike. Both war criminals and sex pests in service of cruel masters that claim ends justify means.
