Every Christian meets the problem of evil eventually: in a hospital room, in a headline, or in the question of a child. If God is perfectly good and truly almighty, why is there so much suffering?
Resolving The Problem Of Evil presents a step-by-step, analytic theodicy that invites rigorous evaluation of Frame-Indexed Classical Theism (FICT). Each definition is explicit, each inference is shown, and every conclusion is grounded in Scripture (Sola Scriptura) while remaining in broad continuity with the Christian philosophical tradition.
WHAT YOU'LL DISCOVER:
- A logically consistent theodicy demonstrating how a perfectly good and all-powerful God can coexist with real, pervasive evil and suffering, without weakening either divine goodness or power.
- Sharp distinctions between the logical and evidential problems of evil, including focused treatments of moral evil, natural evil, and so-called "gratuitous" evil.
- A precise map of the core concepts (evil, harm, suffering, permission, causation) so debates don't collapse into equivocation.
- How classical and contemporary responses (privation accounts, soul-making, greater-good reasoning) integrate into one unified, testable account, with focused engagements with Augustine, Aquinas, Calvin, and Hume.
- Where frame-indexing goes beyond every standard response: why the whole debate rests on predicating "good" and "permits" univocally across the divine and human frames, and what dissolves when the frames are separated.
- Conclusions carried all the way through the hardest doctrines: human suffering, the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit, relativism and absolutism, and the nature of heaven.
- Analytically transparent arguments you can follow line by line, open to acceptance or refutation strictly on the merits.
WHAT IS FRAME-INDEXED CLASSICAL THEISM?
FICT is the position that the classic dilemmas of theology are not unsolvable mysteries but artifacts of a single formal error: predicating terms univocally across the divine and human frames, when a being's nature fixes its frame of apprehension. Index each term to its frame and the contradiction dissolves. Applied here: God's omnibenevolence is absolute in the divine frame, evil and suffering are real in the human frame, and the coexistence of the two involves no contradiction at all.
WHO THIS BOOK IS FOR
- Christians who have met the problem of evil personally, in suffering, in doubt, or in a conversation that shook them, and found the standard answers thin.
- Apologists who need the logical and evidential arguments distinguished cleanly, with responses that hold up under pressure instead of collapsing into "God has His reasons."
- Pastors, teachers, and students who want a theodicy they can teach and defend line by line, grounded in Scripture across the canon.
- Philosophers and academics who want the formal backbone: explicit definitions, transparent inferences, conclusions open to refutation on the merits.
THE MANY BEINGS FRAMEWORK
One framework, six classic dilemmas: free will and sovereignty (Book 1), the problem of evil (Book 2), time and eternity (Book 3), immutability and interaction (Book 4), infinity and creation (Book 5), and relativity and the divine frame (Book 6). Each volume reads standalone, and Book 1's Kindle edition is free.
If you're ready to move beyond either/or compromises and see how God's perfect goodness coheres with the existence of evil without contradiction, this book provides the clarity you've been missing.
