1 | Who created evil? | Gen 3:1 | TheCurtMan | 93430 | ||
Brother Sal, Too many questions at one time confuses The CurtMan. It puts me in too many different arenas at the same time. However; there were two that tends to stand out in my book; Lucifer and I Cor. 16. Dealing with I Cor. 16. Someone sent you a post on this topic currently under discussion, saying something along the lines, of the things that God created were of matter; of substance. I’m afraid I’m about to mess up someone’s post so allow me to switch tracks and try it from a different perspective. There are some who believe that Wisdom was created. This can not be because if it was true, then at some point and time God would have been without wisdom since He has always exsisted. Wisdom was not created but yet it exsist. My question to you is could Evil fall in the same boat, meaning that it was not created but does exist?? Could there be anything else that might fall into the same category meaning that it wasn’t created but does exit. If you take a good look at Col. 1:16 as well as John 1:3 they specifically say that all THINGS were created by Him. What that says to me is that every matter and substance, rather in Heaven or on Earth; rather visible or invisible. Every MATTER and SUBSTANCE owes it’s origin to Christ the Sustainer; but I think the key word in this case is THINGS. As far as Lucifer is concerned, I personally believe that the whole thing involves a choice. Salvation; Obedience; Life itself. Everything involves a choice. Lucifer didn’t have to make the choice he did, neither did Adam and Eve. By the way, who forced you to except Christ?? God knew that Lucifer was going to become a rual pain, and I’m exceedingly glade that He perpared for such a thing. God could have stoped Lucifer, He could’ve stoped WWI, He could’ve stoped WWII, He could’ve even stopped 911, but He didn’t. And how do you know that even if God DID stoped Lucifer, that some other angel wouldn’t have come up with the same idea. Lucifer convienced a third of God’s angels to go up against God, how do you know that if God stoped Lucifer, some other angel wouldn’t have come up with the same bright idea of kicking God out of His Heaven. Sorry about that, TRYING to kick God out of His Heaven?? The CurtMan |

2 | Who created evil? | Gen 3:1 | Christian24 | 93435 | ||
God did not create evil. Evil is here because of satan being kicked out of heaven. The world was perfect, Yes perfect! Satan was not made evil, he became evil. He became boastful, and full of himself. And once God kicked him out, (as a spirit) his spirit went into the body of a asp, which we all know was what tempted EVE in the garden. Adam and Eve did not know evil. Satan is evil so when he was cast out of heaven, his evil/tempting ways followed him. | ||||||

I didn't know that the snake that tempted Eve was an Asp. How did you come by that one?? Also, judging from your comment, do you think that it'll be fair to say that evil, in this case was the result of bad decisions?? |

CurtMan the asp in genesis is the same as the asp in job 20:14 and job 20:16, you asked a question that you didn't know eve was tempted by a snake and what is an asp, the asp has venom. And lives in a hole. Get a commentary or a dictionary to help you out. And yes to add when reading Gen. we find out that satan was already present, but by eating the fruit, that was the kindlet that let evil out to man. Adam and eve knew nothing of evil. They knew nothing of sin, they didn't know that they where naked. So yes it is that descion to eat, that led to sin in "MAN". any further question... please ask. |

When you're right, you're right. The class on snakeology I never took seriously, as a matter of fact, I never took it at all. I didn't know that Asp and Cobras where of the same family. Thanks for the enlightenment. | ||||||
