Скачать книгу - Pain as a Means of Grace



This text provides a novel approach to a critical issue–the potential of pain. Initially, the potential of pain is explored by way of paradise lost, as an explanation of why things are as we experience them. The book then entertains the classic Job narrative, as it pertains to addressing the question of why the godly suffer.

Moreover, the text begins and concludes with examples meant to illustrate pain as a means of grace.
