Satan Bound and Loosed!


I invite you to ponder one of the toughest questions raised by the book of Revelation (Rev. 20.7): Why will God allow Satan to be released again at the end of the Millennium? Would we release an unrepentant, psychopathic serial killer once we had him imprisoned? It is clear from the text that Satan will emerge from his prison just as rebellious and evil as ever. God clearly knows beforehand that Satan will raise a new rebellion among humans when turned loose. Why will God allow this?

Give it some thought and post your comments here.

Thank YOU, BC2AD Participants

Thank you, everyone, for your gift of a 3-night getaway for Kaaren and me. Here's the beautiful rainbow that greeted us on our first evening at the B&B on Camano Island.

Problem of Evil Solved!

Congratulations to the Friday BC2AD class for successfully solving the philosophical Problem of Evil. Good work, people! I only regret that Chad Johnson and others weren’t there to experience the discussion and the amazing answer to this conundrum. I also regret that we won’t have a chance to revisit our theodicy this coming Friday, since we’re already behind on our material and we need to plow ahead, but hey, what a great class we had!
