Suffering and Death in a Christian Worldview Abstract When God created human beings, He had intended to give them a life free from suffering; a plan that failed due to Satan’s move to deceive human beings. George is a victim of suffering and has to make difficult decisions that are affected by his position as a Christian. George is a Christian and understands that suffering is normal since human beings once disobeyed God and allowed suffering into the world, and thus no explanation was needed as to why human beings go through suffering. George believes that there is hope for resurrection and that death is a transition from the world of suffering to eternal peace.

The value of life in Christianity leads to the argument that a person should not under any circumstances choose to end life. One of the options that can be morally justifiable is to put George at the end of life care as a…
