I remember sitting in a darkened church parking lot early one morning struggling with my faith. I had some questions for God. I have since (by Jesus' grace) had those questions answered.
King David wrote in a Psalm that no matter where he made his bed (in Hell, or the depths of the sea, or in Heaven) God was there. So I don't agree with the opening line that claims there is a place beyond the reach of God's faith. He is omni-present. Even in Hell God's wrath will be known. Only a unregenerate heart would claim God is limited in His power.
I like the comments by Justintime. It could be about those subjects. Consider that without God [Jesus] (an absolute standard of right and wrong) that those heinous acts (while temporally judged) go unpunished. It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. I thank God for His Light in my life.
How do we reconcile a theodicy? Outside of the Christian worldview, evil doesn't exist. In an evolutionary materialistic universe there is a just physical pain. How does the Christian reconcile the evil in this world? They accept God's authority. God governs this universe by judging sin. Job questioned God on this matter, and in the end put his hand over his mouth, then said I cannot contend with the Almighty. If you have questions please seek pastoral advice. Read the book of Job, pray that God would open your mind and heart.
@Bahnsenite no one cares. Your mythology is YOUR problem. You think there's a diety who finds it absolutely acceptable to sit by and let children be tortured. I'd recommend you stop peddling your mythology in the comments about a song on child abuse that you fully know what you worship doesn't do a single thing to stop it... It either CAN'T or WON'T, there's zero in between and either way makes it worthless.
