Summary

The problem of evil is among the most significant philosophical arguments posed against the existence of God. Crucial to this argument is the premise that God, on account of his divine moral perfection, is necessarily constrained to prevent or mitigate evil whenever it is possible for him to do so.

Critics Review

“Focusing on explanation rather than justification with respect to God and the problem of evil, Dr. Steven Lewis offers an argument predicated on a Thomistic view of natural theology. This book makes a substantive contribution strengthening the theists’ claim that the existence of evil does not defeat the claim that the Christian God exists.”
–Bruce A. Little, Professor Emeritus in Philosophy, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary

In this book, Lewis challenges that assumption and makes a case for a radically different view. Scholars and laymen alike will benefit from this work and see why the typical problem of evil fails.”
–J. Brian Huffling, Professor of Philosophy and Theology, Southern Evangelical Seminary
