Jeanine Banza: we are going to have a controversial question today. Not only is the question controversial, but also it's a popular question.
Jeanine Banza: Hello, hmm. Hi, Cynthia. Welcome to the Millennial podcast show
Jeanine Banza: What
Jeanine Banza: does evil come from?
Jeanine Banza: Where does evil come from? What comes from?Jeanine Banza: What is the root of all these evil things we see today in the world walls disease, injustice, poverty, and pandemics?
Jeanine Banza: How come if there is a Good God out there
Jeanine Banza: Babies die,diseases, poverty!
Jeanine Banza: Who's. Who is to blame for all these?
Jeanine Banza: mass rape in Eastern Congo
Jeanine Banza: violence, murders, domestic violence, kidnapping, human trafficking, domestic violence, children, sexual assault, and so on.
Jeanine Banza: The list is long. Cynthia, really to enter this conversation, to have
Jeanine Banza: your opinion. Why?
Jeanine Banza: how can you?
Jeanine Banza: What can you tell the audience today about all these things happening? What do you think?
Cynthia Banza: Honestly? Oh, well, thank you for having me again. I'm so happy to be back.
Cynthia Banza: I think there are many different evils, and a lot of the time. We won't exactly know the exact answer. Why do these things happen, and we shouldn't? I don't know. I feel like we should not.
Cynthia Banza: so on. Why, maybe those things happen, but understand that there is evil in the world, and that usually happens, because, like, we said, we're not perfect. And the world is not full of perfect people. And there are diseases. And there are pandemics that happen that God allows just because we have already seen them before. And he knew all these things were going to happen because there could be some due to greed, and some due to people wanting more power. And there are some things that are just due to our own.
Cynthia Banza: our own sins, human natures, and flesh natures cause certain things to happen. But the reason why some things happen, especially
Cynthia Banza: those controversial things. It's really hard to make sense of it. But it's important always to trust God and God's plans, and though we may not know why some things happen, they just happen. Everything happens for a reason.
Jeanine Banza: exactly. And I think things happen because of the human nature.
Jeanine Banza: God created
Jeanine Banza: us with a certain type of freedom, really full freedom of the Holy Spirit.
Jeanine Banza: But it's up to men or women to choose how to use that freedom. And because I know I'm asking this question because so many people blame God, what? What is going on in the world? They say, well if there is a good God out there. Why is this happening? But
Jeanine Banza: first of all, at the beginning of the men choose to sin, even though God forbade them to touch a certain tree
Jeanine Banza: they ate the fruit from the tree and ate it.That the first man who did( correction:it's the first woman who gave a portion of the fruit )
Jeanine Banza: who ate the fruit in the garden
Jeanine Banza: fruit, and gave a portion of it to Eve, and since then
Jeanine Banza: since then, sin entered the world
Jeanine Banza: really
Jeanine Banza: for me, as you say, and there is no, we cannot have the answer to all the wise, but the no reason of evil
Jeanine Banza: it is this simple nature.Jeanine Banza: oh, man. We have seen her, and we all need
Jeanine Banza: so bad a Savior, I.
And I think, going from that, what do you think cats are really or what? I just said.
Cynthia Banza: yeah, I definitely think that definitely there. Of course, like I said before, to that we mentioned like you mentioned that since the beginning,
Cynthia Banza: and them eating the fruit, the forbidden fruit. So yeah, there's a lot of things. I mean, some people that blame God are. Probably it's usually in times like it's e easy, just because they're they don't want to look at it. Maybe the
Cynthia Banza: bad things did go on. But some things are hard to make sense of, and it's hard to convey to people. That
Cynthia Banza: why? Why? Why? Like, if somebody passes away, the reasons why, but it's easy to blame God just because out of feelings of anger and
Cynthia Banza: things. But once people really settle and find that
Cynthia Banza: things happen, and you know we're not meant like with death. It's like the heart. We're not meant to live forever with some stuff. It's harder to explain and to kind of make sense of. So it's a very difficult question to ask, why does evil happen? Because I feel like it's much more. It's a little bit more complex. Because, if, like, you said, There, there's something that you mentioned like.
Cynthia Banza: like some sensitive t topics like, why does then why do? Why are children getting killed? Why is there sexual assault happening and things like that? And it's not because people deserve it or at all. And humans deserve it. Other humans are messed up. So that's the difficult part. Well, to understand.
Jeanine Banza: Well, well, this is a an
Jeanine Banza: interesting conversation. We are going for today. Just to stop here and invite every one of each
Jeanine Banza: we are going to have a controversial question today. Not only is the question controversial, but also it's a popular question. 2.
