Bible Question: Since God is sovereign, does that make Him responsible for evil? |
Bible Answer: God is sovereign, and he is responsible for giving us the ability to choose between good and evil. The ability to choose in and of itself is good, but the use of the ability may be bad. There is little or no glory in forcing opinions on your children, and likewise, there is little or no glory for God in forcing us to obey His commandments, or even in forcing us to believe in Him. |
