Episode 187: Further Thoughts on Suffering and the Origin of Evil

Continuing on in 1 Peter 3, we conclude with some further
thoughts about suffering. God is NOT the author of evil and the
causes of suffering are often the antithesis of His will. The
second part of this message is all about a Biblical narrative and
I would argue an interpretive key that many Christians have
rejected (at least since the time of Augustine). Rightly
understanding Genesis 6:1-4 from the ancient Jewish perspective
and from the that of Jesus and His Apostles is critical to
understand the evil we face today. Our Gospel mandate is BROADER
than many Christians realize. I try to capture some of that in
this message.
