Bible Question:
The very same Law that God created condemned his Son Jesus. How do you explain John 1:29? Consider Genesis 22:8. I do not say that God is evil. If God created that which is evil, that does not make him evil. God created man of corruptable flesh. Does this make God evil? We must also surmise that the Lord knew all things when the serpent was created, as well as man, and he most certainly knew that man would be evil. How do you explain Job 26:13? How do you explain Isaiah 45:7? "I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things." How do you explain 1 Kings 22:19-23 "Micaiah said, "Therefore, hear the word of the LORD. I saw the LORD sitting on His throne, and all the host of heaven standing by Him on His right and on His left. The LORD said, 'Who will entice Ahab to go up and fall at Ramoth-gilead?' And one said this while another said that. Then a spirit came forward and stood before the LORD and said, 'I will entice him.' The LORD said to him, 'How?' And he said, 'I will go out and be a deceiving spirit in the mouth of all his prophets.' Then He said, 'You are to entice him and also prevail. Go and do so.' Now therefore, behold, the LORD has put a deceiving spirit in the mouth of all these your prophets; and the LORD has proclaimed disaster against you."" |
Bible Answer: Sorry if I missunderstood you point. "God created man of corruptible flesh" not so as found at Deuteronomy 32:4-5 The Rock, perfect is his activity, For all his ways are justice. A God of faithfulness, with whom there is no injustice; Righteous and upright is he. 5 They have acted ruinously on their own part; They are not his children, the defect is their own. A generation crooked and twisted! Man makes himself bad by not obeying God's will. God tolerates evil but is not the cause of it, the text you site show God's toleration of evil. God will always bring ultimately disasters against man that do not do his will as they will "reap as they sow" see Gal 6:7-8. From God's view bringing evil results upon themselves and others for their bad deeds, so if God let this happen then it can be said to be from God but due to their own badness. DBR |
