Evil, pain, and suffering are the focus of this lesson in the Systematic Theology series. The concept of theodicy seeks to resolve how it is that these exist in a world created by an almighty and good creator. Evil is considered in terms of the typical categories of moral and natural evil, and how these are related to moral freedom, divine sovereignty, a cruciform design in creation, and the crucifixion. The class concludes with reflection on the redemptive purposes of evil, pain, and suffering in the light of divinely revealed ultimate purposes.
