FBR Episode 28 - Does God Need Evil
from The Faith By Reason Podcast · host Ed Mabrie
Does God NEED evil? That question may sound sacrilegious, but when you think about it, the entire Biblical plan of redemption was predicated on the fall of man and the subsequent plan for salvation (through which God showed us His love in the form of the sacrifice of His Son). If there were no evil, there’d be no sin and no need for salvation. So is “evil” a necessary part of God’s plan? The obvious answer is no. In this podcast, I tell you why evil isn’t necessary, as well as the most effective way to fight evil (it’s probably not what you think…)
