Ever wondered how God can be Love, yet allow so much Evil? -Or know anyone who has? Maybe this is the book for you!
Modelling himself on C.S.Lewis, the writer angles his approach and style as clearly and accessibly as possible because the Problem of Evil can easily get way too complicated. This brief work may be short, but both 'lay and learnéd' should find food for thought here, and if they want more, there are 12 extra pages of end-notes. There are also links to a similar video series.
Neither an 'apple tree' nor a 'tree of knowledge' are found anywhere in the Bible! The real 'Don't...' was '...Destroy Perfection!' The writer puts forward an angle of approach to the classic Problem of Evil and looks at the implications, touching on a range of subjects underway, e.g:
- Womankind: -the best kept till last!
- You matter!
- What was the 'Forbidden Fruit' really?
- Good-and-Evil
- Good -and Creator
- What about the Devil?
Like Julian of Norwich, - whom he quotes- the writer has an view of the world that is ultimately optimistic. The final theme touched on is:
- The abolition of Evil!
This book should spark off discussions in study-circles, adult Sunday-Schools, Young Peoples Fellowships, etc. and prove useful for students, Christian Schools, Libraries, Churches
- and You!
