@megbasham A few more stats re: Republicans vs Democrats (as of today via AI Grok). As a politically small c conservative Canadian, I am surprised that the Democrats are still favoured on the congressional ballot.
@aigkenham Maybe. Maybe not.
I appreciate Schaefferโs perspective on this important subject, particularly his view that one may faithfully hold either the young-earth or the old-earth position.
@sappholives83 Jesus was Jewish.
In the standard Protestant Bible, all 39 books of the Old Testament and 25 of the 27 books of the New Testament were written by Jews.
I follow your posts and appreciate your sage perspectives. Thank you for your honesty on this particularly poignant and heart-wrenching subjectโthe weak link in my personal faith.
First, if God is all-powerful and all-good, why is there so much evil and suffering? Second, how can we as Christians trust God in the face of evil?
If this is of interest, here are a couple of helpful, readable books for your consideration. The first one, by Lewis, you may already have read, as it is a prominent classic.
โข โThe Problem of Painโ by C.S. Lewis
โข โCan God Be Trusted?โ by John Stackhouse Jr. (2nd edition)
All the best, Diana. Brian
