THINGS ALL OUGHT TO KNOW
As Christian Bible students-The Sat-
isfaetory Proof of;"Why God Permits

,UaSso'J ''ooI o'f why Soo FoTTHtts
Evil"
One Of the questions. which comes to
nearly every thinking ,Mind today is,
"Why does God permit evlI:" As we
look about us In the world We observe
that it Is filled With sorrow and trouble.
sickness and pain and every trial we
could enumeraie. and we cannot help
wondering WHY GOD ALLOWS 1T.
We realize that. He is almighty and
that He could prevent 1t IL lie wished.
We read in His Word that He Is more
willing to do for His children than
are earthly parents for theirs. and/we
know how much that means: yet Of
tentimes 1t seems TINT those who try
10 do and live right have the most
trouble. This question Is made very
clear in book entitled. 1.-THE Divine
Plan Of the Ages" Every statement
is backed by Scripture. and shows that
willie God does not sanction evil he
HAS HAD A PURPOSE IN ALLOW.

Pharaoh promptly appointed Joseph
