The Beauty Of Grace In The Problem of Theodicy

This is the one of the best answers I've heard on what is probably the most commonly raised objection against Christianity (the problem of theodicy).  The speaker is Voddie Baucham. This dude is a beast. I've heard him preach once when he came to Oahu.  He just starts streaming tears in the middle of the video while he's expounding on his answer. 

Questions that Voddie brought up that we can ask ourselves while watching this short video:

Do I start with me as the measure of all things?

Do I judge God based on how he carries out my agenda?

Do I, in turn, want a God who is omnipotent but not sovereign?

Romans 2:4-5 "Or do you despise the riches of His goodness, forbearance, and longsuffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance? But in accordance with your hardness and your impenitent heart you are treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgement of God"

The very air we breathe should cause us to seize the day, while it is called "today", by falling on our faces asking God to save us and have mercy on poor, wretched, undeserving sinners like us.  If you are not saved today, TODAY IS THE DAY OF SALVATION!

Praise our Almighty God for His enduring patience and forbearance.  Praise God for His unconditional love.  Love that was so vividly displayed on the cross of Christ!  Praise Him for His grace.  Grace that is greater than all of our sin!  While we were yet sinners, deserving of eternal wrath and condemnation, Christ gave Himself for us!
