THE DEVIL LIES Series | Lie # 3: God Is Not A Good Father

Life experiences may prompt you to think that God causes suffering. You decide God isn’t a good Father; He’s punishing you, angry with you. Your fear seems reasonable but is far from the truth. “Fear is not of God.” Satan can harass us with fear. Original sin brought suffering, sin and natural disasters into human experience. Why do bad things happen to good people? Why doesn’t God make everything OK? God chooses not to overpower our free will, allows us to choose love or reject it. Every difficult moment is an opportunity to turn to our Father in Jesus. Excerpts from The 10 Biggest Lies of the Enemy, Deacon Keith Strohm, p.59.
