Why does God allow evil? Is that even true?
Yes, it is true and more! God is the
cause of evil - not merely allows it. You cannot be the First Cause and not cause ALL that follows.
Isaiah 45:7 explicitly says 'I create woe.' It does not say he feebly allows this to happen.
In reading the Old Testament, God is portrayed as a warrior. Not only does he bring destruction, he is a master of psychological warfare,
causing a person, an opposing army or entire city or nation to be so struck with fear they became paralyzed. Some like to play word games and define evil to be something impossible for God to do.
However, this contradicts the idea that God is all-powerful and anything is possible with God.
If the wrath of God means anything, it means he not only allows evil but causes evil. Such is the inescapable terror of suffering the wrath of God. This forms the foundation of
Psalms 111:10 Fear of the LORD is the foundation of true wisdom. All who obey his commandments will grow in wisdom. Praise him forever!
The End Game, Judgment Day will see
most cast into the Lake of Fire. Justice is evil to the evil, yes?
Only a
feminized religion would suppose it could possibly be any other way. Only God is good for only he can stop evil.
