I couldn't say what Mr. Lennon meant, but one possibility is this:
Perspective, or point of view, is a crucial part of all observations or judgments. If we imagine a "supreme being" or "god", a conscious being who is located so that it can "see everything", we also imagine a being that would be able to properly judge how our pain compares to that of our peers who are struggling with us to make a better world. We can then try to decide for ourselves what such a "god" would think of us. In that sense, adopting a religion can be a tool for introspection, a way of examining one's self.

Very few must have read this questions and very few answered it though I am also among them a citizen of America before an Indian as we cannot stay a citizen of two countries because being American resident we are no more Indian but we can visit our mother land for ever and are free to live there too loosing all benefits if we stay longer I think , Every body loves peace and hate a place where there is no security . when I see terrorism is a global problem every body should play his or her role . When Malala a muslim girl can fight for education of girls ,when a child wants his or her freedom a terrorist lives in terror and not free from its consequences ,a day would come when people would come forward to wipe it from human minds but it is too late already , there are so many means of destruction to wipe whole humanity if necessary action is not taken sooner . I am too small to take any action ,but all kind of violent films should be removed from media so that we do not have access to them through any means . People can rent these kinds of movies for couple bucks and get up to fight with family members then to next neighbor then at work then somewhere at shopping mall ,then wherever he does not think right triggered by media and resources he can access from cafes and star buck who give this freedom so easily . Then we try to calm the mind which is already bombarded with so much negative information all over the world .

In Lennon's song, God is referred to as a "concept" which means that he is essentially an idea... Apparently Lennon supposed that the significance or insignificance of our pain is relative to God. I don't know, however, which one Lennon set God at (painful or not), but judging by some of his other songs and styles, Lennon though God was a pain...

He meant god is just a concept because no one can prove his existence....and the more faith in this concept of god the more pain you have by denying yourself of pleasure and the more you make other miserable. more faith=more pain

I think it means like the more pain we have the more we beleive in God to help us get rid of it

The pain we are in and the more pain we have the more we want god to answer our prayers ain't it funny.

he is saying that most people pray and start to believe in God when they are in trouble or have a problem and once that is over they basically just forget about him

It is a method for measuring our endurance of what life throws in our way.

I guess we blame God for all of our misfortunes or good luck.

What he meant depends on if he was high or not. Only he knows for sure.
