God Redeeming Evil In The Old Testament – Ep.170 – What About Evil? – God’s Redemptive Glory In Scripture – Part 1

Redeeming Evil In The Old Testament
One of the goals of the Greater-Glory Theodicy is to find not just the best logical explanation for why evil exists. It is also to see if the special revelation of God details its reason. In this episode we look at how is God redeeming evil in the Old Testament.
Evil is not a whispered result of sin. From chapter 3 of Genesis and moving forward throughout the entirety of the Old Testament you couldn’t swing a donkey’s jawbone without running into a story of evil. Why? In those stories, God is redeeming that evil for His purposes, for future redemption, for ultimate removal, and for the pinnacle of human history – the Incarnation of Jesus Christ.
Let us look at the Old Testament and see the glory that God receives becomes greater and manifested to His creation because evil is present – and being dealt with.
