I strongly disagree that love and pain are inseparable

Christ suffered pain out of love for mankind,so perhaps you should rethink this.

True love means that we would be willing to suffer for others.

Would you be willing to suffer to save the life of a child?

I would be willing to suffer pain out of love

See my post #61.

God is love. He is not pain. Absence or separation from Him is pain.
