(cronnie36;48802)
God is righteous and evil is clearly a device used by our Lord and the scriptures back this up. Also He created ALL THINGS!I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things. The infallible Word of God. Why dispute it? Yes admire the beauty of it's Truth and give glory to God.Give glory to the LORD your God, before he cause darkness, and before your feet stumble upon the dark mountains, and, while ye look for light, he turn it into the shadow of death, and make it gross darkness.Or He may see fit to do the above mentioned evil to you. Or maybe this will happen:And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil, that he had said that he would do unto them; and he did it not. But one thing we know for sure:The LORD hath made all things for himself: yea, even the wicked for the day of evil.
