This is why God allows evil and suffering.
Manage episode 460570155 series 3629251
“If God is real, then why…?” You’ve heard it. Maybe you’ve asked it. In this episode, I confront the most common objection to the Christian faith — the existence of evil, pain, and suffering — and I do it without hiding behind Sunday school clichés or blind faith.
This one’s personal. I used to use the problem of evil as a battering ram against Christianity. But when God dismantled my worldview and I actually read the Bible, I found something I wasn’t expecting: a deeper, better answer.
This episode lays the groundwork for understanding a God who is both good and sovereign in a world that’s undeniably broken.
🔹 Topics include:
– Why the "God vs. evil" argument misunderstands God entirely
– What Genesis 1 really demands we accept
– How free will, sin, and love are inseparably connected
– Why evil doesn't disprove God — it confirms what Scripture says
– My personal journey from using this question to silencing it
📖 Key Scriptures:
Genesis 1:1, John 16:33, Romans 5:12, 2 Corinthians 4:17, Revelation 21:4
