Problem of Good and Evil

How arouse a paragon who is both powerful and good allow disgust in the world? 12/2/09 For Christians, evil shtup be a problem because non-believers can use it as a trend to attack Christianity. The first thing they might say is if t here(predicate) is evil, accordingly deity must non be good or omnipotent because he is allowing it. Yes, God allows evil in the world, unless evil does not come from God. Evil comes directly from dickens. We perk this in the book of Matthew, vs. 1-11, where Satan tries to tempt Jesus.Another way an non-believer ay discredit Christianity is reflexion that because there is evil, God doesnt exist. This is by all odds false. God does exist and we know because the Bible says so. We also can imbibe the results of his power. Some examples of that are when Moses led the Israelites out of slavery in Egypt and God parted the wet of the red sea so they could get through, but he closed them over the Egyptians and they were wiped out. Another example is the woman who had been discharge for twelve years, in Mark 5 5-34, and with one touch of Jesus robe, was healed.This is near a little taste of Gods power over evil. Finally, non-believers could say that God is no better than pagan gods, but he is real and here to save us. God hates evil, but Adam sinned which caused evil in mankind, and he had to bear the consequences of his disobedience against God. The Bible shows us that God is both omnipotent and good. God is omnipotent which means all-powerful. In Luke 1 37, it says For nothing is unfeasible with God. There isnt anything that God cant do.Also in Rev. 196, it states Then I comprehend what sounded like a great multitude, like the roar of rushing waters and like loud peals of thunder, shouting Hallelujah For our Lord God Omnipotent reigns. In that verse, we see God directly described using that word. Now on the other hand, God is good. How can we define good? That is difficult to do. My exposition of good is Having desira ble or positive qualities. God is good to his people, and everything he has created.Psalm 1361, a passage about Gods goodness, says, Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good. His dearest endures forever. Another passage is from Psalm 348, which says O taste and see that the Lord is good blessed is the man that trusts in him. This verse is saying that if you let God in your life, you will see that he can provide still good things for you. He will not put up evil your way. God may cause trials in your life, but that is only because he wants to produce perseverance, as said in James.
