I asked a question earlier and that was did God create evil? One of my spiritual advisor said this Antonio Black The example that I give often is GRAVITY. We know that gravity exists, and we live by the rules of gravity. Gravity works. If someone jumps from a 100 story building, do we say that gravity had an evil intent toward that individual? No. Gravity worked FOR the person who stayed on ground level, and gravity WORKED AGAINST the person who jumped from 100 stories. Either way, gravity WORKED. Gravity has no evil intent...God has no evil intent. God created our world with certain principles or laws. If we adhere to these principles, they will work FOR us. if we dont adhere, they will work against us. We determine the outcome. But God designed that His will, His Word, and His law work FOR us. Evil, then, is us attempting to defy the principles of God, and the outcome of those futile attempts.
