Assuming that there is an all-powerful, all-knowing, perfectly good God
who seeks a loving relationship with all humans, it is puzzling that
certain people experience that God seems to hide. It is often argued
that this fact of ‘divine hiding’ renders it improbable that God exists.
In this study, Francis Jonbäck defends the view that it would not be
surprising if divine hiding were necessary to realise greater goods or
to avoid worse evils that are beyond our ken, in which case one is not
justified in saying that divine hiding renders it improbable that God
exists.
He goes on to argue that it is difficult to explain why God hides and
that – although believers do not have a probabilistic problem with
believing in a God who seems to hide – there might be an
existential or practical problem, in particular for non-believers, when
seeking a God who seems to hide.
