This is Ken Ham, with biblical answers on why God allows disease … suffering … and death.
Years ago I wrote a book on why God permits disease and death. It was after the 9/11 terrorist attacks … and a death in my family.
Now, the issue of death and suffering has been one of the most-asked questions we receive here. With the massive coronavirus outbreak, it continues.
