Why Doesn't God Stop Evil?

Dr. Brad Burke

How often do we look out with dismay at the mess in our world and ask, What was God thinking? If there really is a good God up above, why is there so much evil in this world? If God is all-powerful, why didn't he bind up or destroy the Devil right from the beginning? If heaven is so great, why didn't God send us straight to paradise and forget earth all together? And where was God on September 11th or when Hurricane Katrina devastated the south?

In this edition of the An M.D. Examines series, these and other difficult questions are tackled head on, providing fresh insight into some of the toughest questions ever asked of the Almighty.

In addition, God's "resume" is closely scrutinized to demonstrate that he is the only Sovereign Being in complete control of everything. When the subject of evil is closely examined, we discover that there is a strong vein of wisdom and compassion in God's justice that Christendom has failed to recognize.
