Ep 44: The Problem of Evil (Part 4)- Third Century Theodicies (Tertullian, Plotinus, Origen)
In part four of The Problem of Evil, we continue on in church history into the 3rd Century where we'll explore how controversial theologians Tertullian and Origen attempted to address the problem of evil. Plus we'll take a look at one of the most important Greek philosophers of that era- Plotinus.
How does Tertullian attempt to reconcile the seemingly different explanations in the Old Testament and New Testament for the causes of evil and suffering?
What made Origen's theodicy so controversial? How might it be similar and different to his philosophical contemporary, Plotinus?
What if evil doesn't actually exist?
