Show Notes
If God is all-powerful and perfectly good, why does the world groan under the weight of emotional and physical torment? Some suggest suffering was a tool for creation, but this implies God ordained pain as a necessity. By examining the biblical "living creature," we find a shared capacity for sentient suffering between humans and animals—a reality that demands a consistent answer for the skeptic.
The hope of restoration hinges on the origin of this futility. If decay preceded the Fall, redemption is shaken. James Stambaugh explores a literal renewal where harmony replaces hostility.
