e evil that Adam and Eve did and God consequently cursed the ground. Also God maybe teaching this family to depend more on him we never know the complete reason for our suffering we must know that it is for us to gain wisdom as Sopicles said. If this play had the real living God in it this is what Feinberg has to say about the actions of the characters (Finberg pg.120), ”In particular, I hold that an act is to be done, not because of its consequences. But because God reveals that it is the right thing to do, Regardless of its consequences.” We should follow with faith the direction God points us in, whether that is to brake man’s law. Man’s law isn’t always perfect and that evil is what causes the servants of Christ to suffer. Some might bring up why should I obey God’s law if it goes against man’s laws. This is really a basic question; think of life like a computer game and you are play that game with the guy that made the game. You try to cheat but he already knows what you’re going to do and he has already programmed a response in the game. To follow God and face persecution is better than to go against God. So Antigone was right according to this theology, where she would have gone wrong was when she expected God to deliver her from Creon. There will many times be consequences to your action even if you try to do the right thing. Where Antigone gets in trouble is when she questions God, because she expected God to role out the red carpet for her because she did what was right in God’s eyes. The thing we for get is that God isn’t about to be judged by men it is always the other way around. The dog doesn’t judge its master we don’t judge ours. God is a being above everything he created us and allowed us to see evil and experience suffering as a gift. So we could better understand love and happiness. We are not able to question God on this one because he is omnipot...
