Covering the second part of Bart Ehrman's critique of the Bible's explanation for the existence of evil and suffering, we cover a few critiques of the critiques. Ehrman doesn't seem to like the reasons the Bible gives and doesn't find them satisfying. He also finds them contradictory. There are answers there and hopefully, this gives Christians better motivation to understand the doctrines they hold to in order to be able to give answers to someone even if they are as prolific and impressive as Ehrman is.

Miracles don't change minds? Come on now, they have to. Not if you read The Bible and see how people respond to miracles. Even today, you'll hear people who are given a scenario of preposterous "proof" and the held base commitment forces them to respond that they could be hallucinating or being pranked or it's just a big coincidence. The Bible speaks to this and what needs to happen for someone to believe. #GregBahnsen #Apologetics #presuppositionalism Today's short clip comes from episode 187 which can be found here - https://youtu.be/E2fMvXXyZpg The episode link is https://www.cavetothecross.com/ep187/ ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U907vjiQwOA
