‘The Trial of God (as it was held on February 25, 1649, in Shamgorod)’ is a fictional play Elie Wiesel wrote about God as a defendant in a mock trial where He is accused of permitting the massacre of His children. In a plot twist, the author of the play claims such a trial occurred in the Nazi concentration camp of Auschwitz, but historians question the accuracy of that claim. Whether there was such a trial or not, there is a cosmic trial of sorts taking place right now, where God’s character is called into question and His love tested. Is He truly a loving God or a selfish tyrant? Our study will look into this Great Controversy theme.
