I’m not familiar with the dilemma, but off the top of my head, I’d say we must begin with revelation to solve such a question.
What has been revealed is that “God is good.”
Now that we know the conclusion, I can begin looking for a “how we got there.”
I used to like the answers in the back of my math books for just that reason. I could then go figure out how to get there.
