15 x 23 cm / 456 pg Where does evil come from? If there is a sovereign creator God, as Christian faith holds, is this God ultimately responsible for evil? Does God’s sovereignty mean that God causes each instance of sin and suffering? How do Satan, his demons and hell fit into God’s providential oversight of all creation and history? How does God interact with human intention and action? If people act freely, does God know in particular every human decision before the choice is made? In this important book – the second in his “Satan and Evil” trilogy — Gregory A. Boyd mounts a thorough philosophical and biblical response to these ages-old questions. In contrast to “the blueprint theodicy” that holds that there is a specific divine reason behind each and every event in history, Boyd defends a “Trinitarian warfare worldview” in which all evil is traced back to wills other than God. With rigorous philosophical argumentation, and drawing on insights from Scripture and science, Boyd contends that the problem of evil is unsolvable unless we take seriously the reality of Satan and the spiritual warfare that presently engulfs the cosmos. While all may not agree with Boyd's conclusions, Satan and the Problem of Evil promises to advance the church's discussion of these critical issues.
