Natural Evil
Evil for which “no non-divine agent can be held morally responsible” and is chiefly derived from the operation of the laws of nature
An Evil with no perpetrator and only victims, and thus an Evil only from the perspective of those affected and who perceive it as an affliction
Used as a rebuttal against the Free Will Defense as it can only justify the presence of Moral Evil in the light of an omnibenevolent god without taking into account this Evil
Predestination
Christian theological doctrine that all events have been willed by God, usually with reference to the eventual fate of the individual soul as an explanation seeking to address the Paradox of Free Will
Paradox of Free Will
Paradox contending that omniscience and free will are incompatible and that any conception of God that incorporates both properties is therefore inconceivable
Double Predestination
Doctrine that God actively decrees damnation of some as well as salvation for those whom He has elected as opposition to the concept of Free Will and in favor to the concept of Omniscience, and thus “All are not created on equal terms, but some are preordained to eternal life, others to eternal damnation.”
The Elect
Those preordained by God eternal life as God’s intention of Christ’s death in reference to Predestination
The Reprobate
Those preordained by God to eternal damnation and not part of God’s intention of Christ’s death in reference to Predestination
Prevenient Grace
Christian theology enabling all to respond to the salvation offered by God in Christ so that it is each person’s decision and response to God’s grace that determines whether Christ’s atonement will be effective to that individual in opposition to Predestination
Moral Evil
Evil for which any morally negative event caused by the intentional action or inaction of an agent, or nondivine perpetrator, takes place
