THE ORIGIN OF EVIL To many minds the origin of sin and the reason for its existence are a source of great perplexity.They see the work of evil, with its terrible results of woe and desolation, and they question how all this can exist under the sovereignty of One who is infinite in wisdom, in power,and in love. Here is a mystery of which they find no explanation. And in their uncertainty and doubt they are blinded to truths plainly revealed in Gods word and essential to salvation. There are those who, in their enquiries concerning the existence of sin,endeavour to search in to that which God has never revealed;hence they find no solution of their difficulties; and as such as are actuated by a disposition to doubt and cavil seize upon this as an excuse for rejecting the words of Holy Writ. Others,however, fail of a satisfactory understanding of the great problem of evil, from the fact that tradition and misinterpretation have obscured the teachings of the Bible concerning the character of God, the nature of his government,and the principles of His dealing with sin..... E.G, White. G.C. P. 429.
