Its a nice story. But if Christ rules, where was he when the Nazis deported the Jews from Holland? Where was he when the gas chambers exterminated millions? Where was he when whole cities and their populations were deliberately targeted and destroyed? Where is Christ when countless babies are being slaughtered in the wombs of their mothers? Where was Christ when this man’s beloved w’ife of 50 years at length died? Where is Christ when we need him the most? He saved so many in the Gospels, why couldn’t he save more in our time?
Human suffering has always been a stumbling block to belief in the divine rule of Christ. The chief priests framed the question in a slightly different way. At the foot of the Cross, they mocked him, saying, “He saved others; he cannot save himself. He is the King of Israel; let him come down now from the cross, and we will believe in him.” The Cross seems to be a cruel indictment of failure, not a crown of regal glory.
