Woe! So many people who want to limit God, and say he is not sovereign.
If God is not sovereign, not totally in control, he is not God! Period.
As for God not suffering, Jesus obviously did! And, lest you have forgotten, he is God.
I did a big research project last semester on the impassability of God. In the past, theologians believed he was incapable of feeling anything, including love. Maybe in the 3rd and 4th centuries.
But, theologians really began to explore the Bible, and found out, that in Jesus, God suffered. Even when Christ was alone and dying in the cross, the Father did not abandon the Son, but rather could not look upon sin. Since the sins of the entire world were upon Jesus, the Father turned away.
In the 1970's, Jurgen Moltmann wrote "The Crucified God," where he proposed that God suffered terribly. I think he went too far. Karl Barth believed if God suffered, then you took away Gidfreedom.
Much more to write, will confine tomorrow, when I am on my computer. It is too late to explain these things on a phone!
