A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur

Kevin Tewes has emerged as one of the most compelling voices in the field of theodicy, earning acclaim for his inspired work on the problem of evil. An attorney by training, his thought-provoking arguments are developed with skill and precision, using clear, easy-to-understand language.

In Why God Allows Us to Suffer, Tewes provides the reasons why love could not exist unless God designed the universe in a manner that also allows for the possibility of evil, suffering and death. His argument relies on the proposition that love cannot be experienced unless the physical world, together with the creatures that inhabit the physical world, are designed with certain basic elements in place. Tewes refers to these elements as “prerequisites of love,” and he explains why it is logically impossible for these prerequisites to exist without the possibility of evil and pain also existing. With this groundbreaking analysis Tewes has forever transformed the debate on the problem of pain.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Why God Allows Us to Suffer provides a bold and wholly unique answer to the most vexing theological question facing Christianity. In contrast to most contemporary books on the problem of pain—which typically focus on the free will argument and other stale, hopelessly inadequate doctrines—Why God Allows Us to Suffer begins with the premise that the primary purpose of our existence is to know and experience love. It then examines the prerequisites of love in order to explain why God constructed the material universe in the manner he did, and why he acquiesced to the introduction of pain and suffering into the universe when his creatures chose to pursue selfish ends at the expense of love. The result is that, for the first time ever, the problem of pain is answered in a comprehensive manner that is fully consistent with the Bible.
