The Problem with Humanity
<p>People usually think of themselves as being a good person. In fact, they would categorize the majority of the people they know and love as "good". When people hear about God's judgment against the wicked, it either makes no sense at all, or, they never recognize themselves and their loved ones as part of the "wicked" category. By changing our mindset into an eternal perspective, we can better appreciate how God looks at the situation humanity is in. Through this talk we discuss human nature, and just how evil is humanity has been, and currently is. And yet, despite our horrible flaws, God still loves us. This is the third sermon in a three part series. The other two are on the problem of evil, and the problem of hell. This sermon is also available on the podcast "Jon Topping's Lectures and Sermons", which is available anywhere podcasts are available. Check out www.jontopping.com for more content.

The Problem of Hell
<p>If God loves humanity so much, why does He send people to hell? How can God be all-loving, and yet keep a torture chamber in His basement? This presents a problem that Christians struggle to understand, and a problem that makes non-Christians not even consider coming to Jesus. However, I think this is based on a big misunderstanding about why hell exists. I think there are very good explanations that can help us grapple with this difficult subject. Also, I want to deal with some of the bad answers Christians give, and show how they don't actually fix the problem of hell.</p> <p>This sermon was recorded July 2nd, 2023, at Emmanuel Community Church in Port Perry, Ontario, Canada.</p> <p>Music from Uppbeat (free for Creators!), “Calm” by Zimpzon</p>

Why does God allow evil and suffering?
<p>The problem of evil is the main complaint against Christianity, and even theism in general. If God loves us so much, why does He allow us to go through so much suffering? And why does God allow the wicked and evil people to continue to torment the world?</p> <p>This sermon was recorded September 24th, 2023, at Calvary Pentecostal Church in Lindsay, Ontario, Canada.</p> <p>Music from Uppbeat (free for Creators!), “Calm” by Zimpzon</p>
