Man had freedom to choose the good, but this same freedom also allowed him to choose the bad. This is called moral freedom.

People are tempted to think (understandably) that if God were really good He'd never allow any evil in the world at all. But I don't think a perfectly good God would never permit any evil, and neither would others, I wager, if they thought about it. Rather, I think that a good God always prevents suffering and evil unless He has a good reason to allow it. That's the crux.

Every religion, every philosophy, every individual outlook on life tells a story of reality.

A worldview is simply someone's relatively organized understanding of what the world is actually like.

Some say Christianity is just a crutch. But let's turn the question on its edge for a moment. Is atheism an emotional crutch, wishful thinking? The ax cuts both ways. Perhaps atheists are rejecting God because they've had a bad relationship with their father. Instead of inventing God, have atheists invented non-God? Have they invented atheism to escape some of the frightening implications of God's existence? Think about it.

Our souls - our invisible selves - bear the mark of God Himself. We're like God in that we bear His image.

Whenever someone tries to deny the truth, ultimately, reality betrays him.
