The Right To Question God Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 12, 2021

It is normal and natural to be angry when we suffer evil, and often we will be angry at God for not preventing it. This is valid and God gives us the right to question Him.

The right to question God is a right that God Himself has given to His children. He inspired men of God to write about their own questioning of God’s ways of dealing with the evils of life and all of its suffering and injustice. None is more bold than the prophet Habakkuk. He begins his book ...read more

Contributed by Russell Brownworth on Dec 5, 2005
