Providence: Events (bad or good) that could be perceived
as random are rather perceived as destined by a Higher Power
Providence is God's fore-knowledge, kindly
care, and governance over the universe at large and human affairs in
particular.
EVIL
"Either God wants to remove evil from
the world, and he can't, or he can and he doesn't want to; or he neither wants
to nor can; or, finally, he can and he doesn't want to. If he wants to and
can't, that is powerlessness, which is contrary to the nature of God; if he can
and doesn't want to, that is maliciousness, and that is no less contrary to his
nature; if he doesn't want to and he cannot, that is at once maliciousness and
powerlessness; if he can and he wants to (which are the sole options that agree
with the nature of God) then where does the evil that is on earth come
from?"
