Divine Sovereignty and Human Responsibility: Biblical Perspectives in Tension

biblical perspectives in tension

Plot

One of the greatest obstacles to religious belief is the problem of why God allows suffering in the world. At the root of such a question is the issue of divine power and authority versus human freedom - if God can make everything good, why doesn't He just get on and do it? All religious systems struggle with this question, and it affects every aspect of Christian belief and experience. This is a book for all who wrestle with such questions at a scholarly and professional level - students of theology and philosophy, clergy, teachers, university and Bible college tutors. The author brings a evangelical viewpoint to this debate.
