Would God be unable to prevent evil? He is able, would He be willing to? If He’s able and willing, why does evil remain? Would He even be almighty and good? God won't force free beings to always choose what's good We’re born rebels and we need to drop our weapons Freedom is not doing what you want It's having the right to make the choice you ought to We need to be free even to reject God's love True love is persuasive not coercive Non-free being's creation would make the good greater But without the will, His love would never reach us Evil comes from the corruption of the free man His effects allow us to regret And guilt acceptance lead us to forgiveness Pain is God’s megaphone to wake a deaf world Jesus took upon Himself our sorrows and infirmities Was wounded for our transgressions And crushed for our iniquities For our light affliction which is for the moment works for us More and more exceedingly an eternal weight of glory Jesus took upon Himself our sorrows and infirmities Was wounded for our transgressions And crushed for our iniquities
