Excerpt from The Problem of Evil
Since God cannot, as infinitely Wise and Holy, do what would involve a contradiction (an absurdity) or what would be morally wrong (it is 'impossible for God to lie,' Heb. Vi. We may assert that God Himself could not create a man with free will, and at the same time force him to choose good and not evil.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the age-old struggle of reconciling faith in a benevolent God with the existence of evil and suffering in the world. The author explores the complex relationship between divine omnipotence and human free will, questioning whether a truly loving God could permit the presence of pain and sin. Drawing upon theological and philosophical arguments, the book examines the nature of good and evil, considering whether evil is a mere absence of good or a powerful force in itself. The author delves into historical and religious perspectives on the concept of the Fall of Man, exploring its implications for understanding the origin of evil in the world. The book also tackles the social ramifications of evil, questioning God's role in the face of poverty, inequality, and the seemingly random distribution of suffering. Through a thought-provoking analysis of these profound questions, the author seeks to provide readers with a framework for grappling with the problem of evil, offering insights that may help to strengthen and deepen their faith in the face of life's challenges. Ultimately, the book suggests that understanding the nature of evil and its place in the universe is essential for finding meaning and purpose in a world where suffering and injustice often seem to prevail.
