If the salvation of our soul is the most important event, and
If the preparation of our soul for eternity is the most important task, then
The “problem” of suffering, becomes the “proper use of suffering,” for
God uses the suffering that is experienced in this fallen and dying world to change us and shape us into Christlikeness and the readying of us for our existence in eternity.

Actual eternity does not exist.
Infinity is a concept, we have to way to define a real infinite thing.
Your "threat" of eternal suffering, or your "promise" of eternal happiness are meaningless.
Your concept of God falls in the same category. It is an interesting concept that can be used to explain things, just as infinity is useful in math, but it's in the non-existent category, it does not exists out of the imagination of humans.
"eternity does not exist."
You say that as though you actually know.
HUGO: "eternity does not exist."
MAK: You say that as though you actually know.
No, I don't know, do you?
If we don't know about something, the default position is to say it does not exist.
So, until I learn about something truly infinite, I will consider infinity as a concept, a very useful one, but still only a concept.
What do we get when we divide a number by 0?
