Faith and Eternity

As Christians, I think it is easy for us to misplace our faith. We seem to have a tendency to place our faith in the idea that God exists, and that Jesus is who he claimed to be. While I think having faith in these two propositions is good, and more than good is important and essential, the problem is we do not need to rely solely on faith to support/ sustain our belief and confidence in the truth of these facts. There are a many good reasons to believe these two things, and we can rest assured that our faith in them is well placed because there is good evidence to support these beliefs.

God, Suffering, and Freewill

I just wanted to put my two cents in on the question of why God allows suffering and doesn’t stop us from harming ourselves and others. Some have questioned and said that they couldn’t understand why God would allow a child to get raped, or why He would allow innocent people to suffer in various ways when He could do something to intervene.
