If God Is Good, Why Does Evil Exist?
Manage episode 416782044 series 3423461
In this episode, Bryan, Bo and KD explore the question that skeptics and scoffers love to use to stump Christians: If God is good, why does evil exist? At first blush this paradox seems impossible to answer. But take a second look at the Bible and you’ll not just make sense of this difficult question, you’ll find an answer that can change your eternity.
Takeaways:
- Mormonism and Christianity have different understandings of God, Satan, and the nature of evil.
- Evil is not just external, but also resides within each person.
- Evil exists because people exist. Sin is what broke the world, and God is being patient with people to give them a chance to repent.
