Summary: God is good and all that he does is good. His purpose in creation is the manifestation of his own glory, which is fully realized in eternity, not this life. He is not the author of sin, but he allowed it into his creation so that he could demonstrate his perfect justice and wrath in punishing unrepentant sinners and his perfect mercy in saving his elect.<br> <br> http://www.whatdoesthewordsay.org/uncategorized/74-a-theodicy-go…d-but-allows-sin/
