The Righteous-Wicked Mystery

Why Bad Things Happening to Good People Stops Being Meaningless With Eternity Factored In

Solomon saw the righteous suffering and the wicked prospering. He called it meaningless. Unfair. Unjust.

But he was only looking at the visible scoreboard. Jesus Christ revealed the eternal one. The righteous suffer here. They reign there. The wicked prosper now. They answer later.

This isn't the final score. It's the first quarter. Injustice here doesn't mean meaninglessness forever. Jesus Christ is the God who sees, records, and settles accounts. Not on your timeline. On His eternal one. The righteous aren't losing. They're investing in a kingdom the wicked can't see. When you factor in eternity, the mystery stops being meaningless. It starts making perfect sense.

What injustice are you calling meaningless because you're only looking at the scoreboard Jesus Christ hasn't finished tallying yet?
