Top Highlights
“For if God ordained the presence of evil, then to that extent at least, He is responsible for evil. If He is responsible for evil, then to that extent it is impossible to conclude that He is just in the eschatological Final Judgment.” (Page 77)
“The battle rages in the story of Cain and Abel; the issue is true worship, and the battlefield is the place of worship, the Sanctuary.” (Page 112)
“If God is a novelist and humans are but actors in His hands, to do as He chooses, both now and in eternity, then there is no real human freedom, and so there is no way humans can comprehend if God is just or not, much less admit the fact in the Final Judgment. When we look at that Final Judgment, we will see that Scripture speaks of it as every knee bowing before God. They will do so in utter freedom.” (Pages 81–82)
“The fact that He wanted to become as God and suggested Eve could do the same indicates his belief that God was holding this possibility back from him, and to that extent was unjust. This is why questions about the justice of God are a part of the cosmic controversy and should be the larger biblical worldview within which questions of protology and eschatology must be evaluated.” (Page 56)
“If a system is wrong in its protology it will be wrong in its eschatology” (Page 57)
