What the Bible says about God's Affliction
(From Forerunner Commentary)

Lamentations 3:31-33 These verses assure us there is loving purpose and compassionate consideration involved in God's affliction. This statement almost sounds like "this is going to hurt Me more than it does you." His discipline is always tempered by mercy. If He applied strict justice, He could lawfully kill us all off because that is what we deserve. John W.
