76 - God, People, Prayer, Mystery (Part 2): Christians Who Believe God is Limited in Power
Manage episode 388845169 series 3374336
[Part 1 of this two-parter: God, People, Prayer, Mystery: People Need to Pray More]
Most Christians believe God is all-loving and all-powerful, but if this is the case, why does evil exist and how does prayer fit into the equation?
Part two continues the conversation with author and theologian, Thomas J. Oord, explaining a specific belief in God termed "Open Theism." Open Theists suppose that not only is God limited in power, but for God to make people with true freewill, the future isn't knowable even to Him. While most Christians lend no credence to this theological framework, it's yet another way in which many Christians have attempted to reconcile human suffering with the existence of "an all-loving God."
These questions have been baffling the deepest of thinkers for thousands of years. It’s Jack Hoey, Joey Svendsen and Chip Judd with Thomas J. Oord, taking a deep dive into the existence of God and evil.
