The questions of “Why does God allow bad things to happen to good people and Does God really want you to wait until heaven to enjoy your life” are popular questions. I find myself in a debate that I have trouble trying to defend. I agree with Dr. Frees, “This is not to say that one can argue another person into salvation. According to Ephesians 2:8-9, salvation is only through faith because of God’s grace.”
