What most people claim as errors in the Bible aren't errors but difficulties. People think they've stumbled upon apparent inconsistencies when they haven't taken the time to find out all the facts, or made an in-depth study of the passage. Many Bible questions have been answered as new discoveries have been made in fields such as language, history, archeology, and other sciences. Regardless of the kind of difficulty found, not a single irreconcilable error can be found in the Bible's pages. The thrust of this charge is that evil's presence disproves God's power.
Evil is necessary for a free world.
Freedom, or free will, gives humans the opportunity to make wrong choices. God hesitates to stop evil for an important reason. Just as parents often allow their children to make mistakes and suffer the consequences, God acts in a parental fashion with his creation. God has the solution for evil. Jesus accomplished the ultimate defeat of evil on the cross.
