The prophet grapples with the “mysteries of Providence,” and the age-old dilemma of reconciling the presence of evil with the existence of a good and all-powerful God. This is called “theodicy,” the “vindication of the justice and goodness of God in spite of the existence of evil in the world” (Webster’s Dictionary). Habakkuk clearly declares that the ultimate resolution of the dilemma is found only by a living faith (Hab 2:4) in a loving God (Hab 3:13).

This book contains the notes from the Orange County, California Bible conference held in August 2010.

Cross to the Crown #6

The five mountain peaks of the life of faith. Mt. Mariah - Abraham sacrifice; Mt. Sianai (Exo 19:17-21) law and judgment; Mt. Zion (2Ki 18:1) David's throne -- rulership; Mt. Carmel truth vs. error -- victory; Mt. Olivet (Luk 22:29, 40, Joh 8:1) suffering; Mt. transfiguration (Luk 9:28-31) resurrection and glory. 5 Hebrew words for faith: (1) Amen - to lean on for support; (2) Batach - wrestling term - body slam to the mat; (3) Casah - rabbit chased by fox into a cleft in the rock; (4) Yachal - dressing for wound; (5) Qawah - weave an unbreakable rope from small vines or threads.

Scripture References: Luke 9:28-31, John 8:1, Luke 22:29-40, Exodus 19:17-21
