It goes like this: \u201cIf God is both good and all-powerful, then He would not allow evil in His creation. Evil exists: therefore, God is either not good, or He is not all-powerful.\u201d Author and pastor Randy Alcorn fires a broadside into that argument with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.noendtobooks.com\/book-reviews\/goodness-god-assurance-purpose-midst-suffering\/\" target=\"_blank\">his excellent book, \u201cThe Goodness of God<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>How could God allow the<a href=\"http:\/\/www.silarolipte.com\/2013\/06\/after-while-brook-dried-up.html\" target=\"_blank\"> Brook to dry up<\/a> on His faithful prophet?
