Asking Tough Questions: Why Does God Allow Evil

Texts: Deuteronomy 29:29; Psalm 116:16; Act 17:27-30; John 3:3; John 15:18-19; 1 John 2:15

Bad things happen every day. God does not force anyone to do anything. He gave us all free moral agency to do what we want. He also gave us instructions (the Bible) on what is right and what is wrong. It’s up to us what we choose. When we see all the wickedness in the world, we can’t say, “God, where were You?” The real question is, “Where are we in our relationship with Him?” It’s not God’s problem. It’s our problem. We need to repent and get right with God!
