Jesus vs Natural Evil
If God is good and powerful, how do you account for the last six months?
Bushfires, floods, diseases and locusts. The last six months have been packed full of natural disasters that have wreaked havoc on human life. How is it possible to believe in a God that is both willing and able to do something about natural disasters at a time like this?
This series from Bible Shots is unpacking the observation that the Bible doesn’t try to hide the existence of suffering and evil in the world but confronts it head on and offers real comfort to people in a world where suffering runs rampant.
In this talk Rob Martin continues to work through the book of Matthew and consider what happens when Jesus confronts the problem of ‘natural evil.’
Bible reference(s):
