A Comprehensive Answer to the Problem of Evil Counterintuitively, love is the reason evil and suffering exist. More specifically, the prerequisites of timeless love are the reason evil and suffering exist. The Advent of Time explains why. Readers will learn: The reason God created man (to experience timeless love with God and one another). The five prerequisites of love. How these prerequisites allow for the possibility of evil and suffering. Why God created man as a timeless loving being. Why time itself is a product of man’s first unloving act (original sin). How man’s fall to time-bound existence reconciles direct creation with astronomy, evolutionary biology and all other fields of natural science. How man’s return to timelessness after death answers the problem of hell. Why God's pursuit of a timeless loving union with man ultimately explains every form of evil and suffering. Order a copy of The Advent of Time and discover how the existence of evil and suffering can be fully reconciled with the existence of an all-powerful and all-loving God. What Readers Are Saying: "The author's goal is to answer the age-old question, 'If God is all-powerful and all-loving, why does He allow evil and suffering to exist?' In my opinion, the author accomplished that task." -B. Mills "It answered theological questions I've had for a long time." -Laura Allen "One of the best books I've ever read! I could not recommend this book enough. If you are the kind of person who believes in God and yet you struggle to understand the way love works and how God can be all loving while the world is full of suffering, then you will find the answers in this book." -Mulysa "The work's impact lies in its ability to offer a comprehensive and internally consistent solution to questions that have long challenged faith. The book's relevance is amplified by its adherence to Christian orthodoxy, which makes it a valuable read for believers seeking to deepen their understanding and for skeptics who wish to engage with an intellectually rigorous defense of faith." -Steph Santos " The Advent of Time surprised me in the best way. At first glance, I thought it might be another complicated theological dive, but it turned out to be something quite different—bold, refreshingly original, and surprisingly easy to follow considering the subject matter." -Kasey Whare "One of the things I appreciated most about The Advent of Time was how it skillfully weaves together science and religion." -Jole Woods "I found answers to questions I'd been asking for years." -Kamiko Morey The problem of evil is arguably the most potent challenge to monotheistic belief. Each of the world's major monotheistic religions relies on its own particular faith traditions and assumptions when grappling with this problem. The Advent of Time  provides an answer to the problem of evil utilizing the distinct precepts of Christianity. The Catechism of the Catholic Church  is used as a key source of these precepts, but the book's foundational premises align in almost all respects with the core beliefs of the Protestant and Eastern Orthodox traditions as well. The Advent of Time is a vital read for anyone struggling to reconcile the existence of an all-loving God with a world filled with atrocities. It begins with the premise that the principal purpose of man's existence is to experience love with God and one another. It then identifies and examines the prerequisites of love in order to explain why God's pursuit of love necessitated that he create the very conditions that allow for the possibility of evil and pain. With this conceptual framework in place, The Advent of Time explores the different modes of existence that are experienced by timeless beings, then contrasts these modes of existence against those that are experienced by finite beings who live within linear time. This analysis supplies the insights necessary to interpret Genesis 1-3 in a fundamentally new manner, one that fully reconciles the biblical account of direct creation with the scientific theory of evolution. The analysis of how the prerequisites of love intersect with the differences between finite being and timeless being also provides the insights necessary to answer the theological difficulties raised by the problem of hell. In so doing, The Advent of Time provides a novel and comprehensive answer to every major facet of the problem of evil and pain, including animal suffering and the suffering of innocents.
