Why is there pain, suffering, and evil? This questions is often asked by atheists who seek to undermine the faith of those who believe in an all-powerful and loving God. There is another question to be asked though; why is there goodness? In this final lesson of the 2018 Ozark Memorial Day meeting, Nate Bibens discusses the Biblical message of God’s goodness, and what that means for mankind today.
Why is there pain? Why does evil exist? Why do we suffer if there is a loving, all-powerful God? This question is a favorite argument of atheists, and it is a dilemma that has shaken the faith of many people. In this great lesson, evangelist Brad Shockley discusses this problem, and helps us see why suffering is not a reason to doubt God’s existence, but a reason to turn to the loving Creator!
“What is truth?” Two-thousand years later, modern culture still doesn’t seem to have an answer to Pilate’s question. In an age of post-modernism and relativism, truth seems all but lost. In this excellent sermon by Mike Criswell, however, he demonstrates that there is truth, and it is found in the divinely inspired Word of God!
The Bible speaks of it, and we see it every day. Nature itself reveals the handiwork of a Creator. In this third sermon from the Ozark 2018 Memorial Day Meeting, evangelist David Griffin expertly covers the topic of “Natural Revelation.”
Here is the second lesson from the 2018 Ozark Memorial Day Meeting on “Answering Atheism.” Many atheists claim that man does not need God in order to have an acceptable moral and ethical standard. Are they right? What has happened historically when the atheist worldview has dominated? We highly recommend this excellent lesson by Austin McConnell on Morality and Ethics, which addresses these questions, and shows that morals and ethics cannot truly exist apart from God.
From time to time, we hope to share various videos on the CE website that will be beneficial for study and spiritual growth. We are excited to begin by sharing videos of sermons given at the 2018 Ozark Memorial Day Meeting. The theme of the meeting was, “Answering Atheism.” We want to say a special thank you to Austin McConnel at The Lamplight Dot Net for doing the video work and allowing us to share them online. We hope you…
