Catechism Paragraph

¶ 324

In Brief
The fact that God permits physical and even moral Evil is a Mystery that God illuminates by his Son Jesus Christ who Died and rose to vanquish evil. Faith gives us the certainty that God would not permit an evil if he did not cause a good to come from that very evil, by ways that we shall Fully know only in eternal life.
