Often we hear, from unbelievers and believers the question all too often asked: "If God is good, why do bad things happen?"

I submit to you, that this question stems from a low view of God's being Just, coupled with a high view of ourselves.

Voddie Baucham puts it in an excellent way.

Spot on about those who "judge God based upon how well He carries out" their "agenda for the world".

Too many do it. Too many think they are not only holier than us, but also holier than God.
