GOD'S RESPONSIBILITY
Sir,-If a neighbour, master of a very bad servant, let his servant, using force with his free-will, hit, hurt, starve, or otherwise ill-treat, Gordon P. §S. Smith, that gentleman might see that, while the servant is to blame, the master is responsible, In the Bible God owns responsibility, e.g. P 1 create evil. Isaiah 45:7. I have made and I will bear. Isaiah 46:4. The creation was subjected to vanity, not of its own will, but by reason of him who subjected it in hope (the word Paul had in mind meant ‘assurance’’) that the creation also itself shall be delivered. , Rom. 8:20. Further, God declares plajnly, in the original languages, His will and power ultimately to cure radically every creature, and to make the whole creation once more "vety good." ; The common versions hide this fact, but*their errors cause such striking in consistencies as should rouse earnest readers to dig down.
