Matthew 27:45-54- An Answer to the Problem of Evil- Why is it ‘Good Friday?’

April 2, 2023 By Matthew Cooke Leave a Comment

Many atheists have blamed their unbelief on ‘the problem of evil.’ The argument goes as follows:
A. If God exists, then He is all-loving, & all-powerful.
B. If God is all-loving, then He would want to eliminate all evil.
C. If God is all-powerful, then He is able to eliminate all evil.
D. Yet, Evil exists, so God doesn’t exist.
How should the Christian answer this challenge to our faith? Listen as Pastor Matt considers the narrative of Jesus on the Cross, and why that terrible day is rightly celebrated every year as ‘Good Friday.’ Biblically understanding this paradoxically named holiday will help you stand in the faith and answer the skeptic.
