Evil in this World and a loving God??!!

People from the Christian Faith, present God, as being good! One big reason people say they cannot believe in this God is that it is contradictory with all the evil that they see around them!

If God is good, and all powerful, how, and why would he allow evil to happen?

My opinion, is that most of what people call "evil" cannot actually be blamed on God. Either you want to be controlled, and be a robot; or you want to be free to do what you want. If it is freedom you want, then you are saying that you want God to give you as much potential to do good as to do bad! If you get this potential, then so does everyone else! Why then would you just blame him for the bad that you are responsible for yourself!? Most of the evil we want to blame on God, like famine, disease are actually man's fault. There is enough food in the world to feed everyone. So why don't we feed everyone? Is it not just our selfishness? Aids is often transmitted through doing stuff that the God of the Bible does not approve of, so you can specially not blame him for that!! Apparently most of cancer could be man made!

Having said this, we are still left with earthquakes, thunderstorms, diseases... I can't blame man for everything!

So how to reconcile evil in the World with an all loving God? I believe that God allows evil to exist because He is awesome!

First thing I want to argue, is that if you believe in evil, then you must believe in God. If something is evil, it means that you feel that it ought to be different. As soon as you say it :"ought" you are saying there is a "proper" way things should be. You are bringing meaning to the universe. Either it is your imagination, or there really is a purpose, and organization,  intelligence in the Universe... God.


What the Bible teaches, is that all men have sinned, and deserve to die. 
Maybe you agree with that or maybe you don't. Whatever your view is, you must acknowledge that those who believe this must see evil being part of God's grace.

Let me explain: You and I deserve to die. But God sent his only Son to die, to pay the price for our sins in our place. Those who don't believe will die for their sin, because they are relying on themselves for salvation rather than on the God who saves.

What if all the evil seen in the world, was God pleading with you, agreeing with you, that this is NOT as it ought to be! "Come to me, and let me save you!". Satan is the one trying to get you to think that nothing is wrong with the world. Nothing is wrong with the way you behave. Satan gets you to believe that you are a good person. The Devil gets you to think that if heaven exists, then God would owe it to you, because you have not killed anyone and are a good person! Only an evil God would hide the consequences of sin from you. Only an evil God would not plead with you to repent from your evil ways. A god could chose not to want to be reconciled to all mankind, but this is not the God of the Bible.


Thus, I think Evil in this World and a loving God go perfectly together. When Christ returns all things will be made new. The renewal of the heavens and the earth will come with the destruction of death, pain, suffering, tears... This is what we wait for as Christians. If you believe in evil, then this is what you long for, as you've identified that the world is not as it should be!

My invitation, if you believe in evil, accept God's invitation repent, and become part of his children, who desire to manifests God in all they do, share the Good News about this Kingdom that is, and is coming, where this evil will be no more. Believe in the God who is good and all loving who would not deceive us by hiding our disastrous state and evil from us!

Gospel of Luke, Chapter 13:1-5

13 Now there were some present at that time who told Jesus about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices. 2 Jesus answered, “Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans because they suffered this way? 3 I tell you, no! But unless you repent, you too will all perish. 4 Or those eighteen who died when the tower in Siloamfell on them—do you think they were more guilty than all the others living in Jerusalem? 5 I tell you, no! But unless you repent, you too will all perish.”
