Description: |
For the Christian struggling for an answer, the seeker who thinks suffering disproves God's existence, and the sufferer who needs a glimpse of a loving God. |
Synopsis: |
Why would an all-good and all-powerful God create a world full of pain and suffering? In WHY SUFFERING? Ravi Zacharias and Vince Vitale carefully walk you through a variety of responses that considered cumulatively provide a clear, comprehensive, and convincing answer. Responses like: - The good in the world would be lost if we lost the possibility of the bad. - The creation of a world without suffering would have meant our probable nonexistence. - The cross is the key to a compelling and rational explanation for trust in God in the face of the worst kind of suffering. - In comparison with other world religions, the Christian response is distinctive. - A good creator can allow suffering if he also provides the sustaining power to stand against it. - Relational knowledge about God takes the argument beyond reason to the presence of God amidst suffering. - God's decision to allow temporal suffering makes sense in light of an eternal perspective. - Divine goodness shows how to conquer not in spite of, but even through suffering.Here is a book written with great respect for the complexity of the issue, recognizing that some who read it will be in the trenches of deep suffering themselves and others in a faith crisis about the very existence of a loving God. WHY SUFFERING? provides an answer to the problem of pain and suffering with emotional sensitivity and intellectual integrity. |
