TOPIC for the day : GOD CREATED EVERYTHING If God created everything does he created evil things? Answer ? for human reasoning , logically speaking, if God is all knowing and all powerful God, it is hard to argue that he cannot create even the evil things. But to be safe let us see what the bible said about this things. BIBLE IS THE BEST REFERENCE: God created the universe in six days, but, originally, the universe had no sin—everything He made was “very good” (Genesis 1:31). Sin entered the cosmos due to an act of rebellion against God, not because God created sin. We need to define “sin.”First John 3:4says, “Everyone who sins breaks the law; in fact, sin is lawlessness.” Sin, therefore, is any violation of God’s holy law.Romans 3:23 says, “For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.” According to this verse, sin is anything (words, thoughts, actions, and motivations) that falls short of God’s glory and perfection. All of us sin.Romans 3:23 also teaches that we must know the character of God before we can accurately define sin, because His glory is the standard by which we measure it (Psalm 119:160;John 17:17). Without a perfect standard, there is no way to determine whether something is imperfect. Without the absolute standard of God’s glory, every word or action would be judged by the faulty, shifting standard of imperfect people. Every rule, law, and moral tenet would become a matter of opinion. And man’s opinion is as varied and changeable as the weather. God created men and angels with a free will, and, if a being has a free will, there is at least the potential that he will choose badly. The potential for sin was a risk God took. He created human beings in His image, and, since He is free, humans were created free, too (Genesis 1:27). Free will involves the ability to choose, and, after God communicated the moral standard, He gave the man a true choice (Genesis 2:16). Adam chose disobedience. God did not tempt, coerce, or lure Adam into disobedience.James 1:13 says, “When tempted, no one should say, ‘God is tempting me.’ For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone.” God allowed Adam the dignity of free choice and honored that choice with appropriate consequences (Romans 5:12). God provided the opportunity to sin, but He did not create or instigate sin. Having the opportunity was good; without it, human beings would be little more than robots. God commands, pleads, and encourages us to follow Him (Exodus 19:5;Deuteronomy 12:28;1 Samuel 15:22). He promises blessings, fellowship, and protection when we obey (Jeremiah 7:23;Psalm 115:11;Luke 11:28). But He does not chain us. God did not put a fence around the forbidden tree in the Garden of Eden. Adam and Eve had freedom to choose obedience or disobedience. When they chose sin, they also chose the consequences that went with it (Genesis 3:16–24). The Psalmist tells us, “As for God, His way is perfect” (Psalm 18:30). If God’s ways are “perfect,” then we can trust that whatever He does—and whatever He allows—is also perfect. So the perfect plan from our perfect God was to allow sin. Our minds are not God’s mind, nor are our ways His ways, as He reminds us in Isaiah 55:8-9. Salamat po o aming Dios sa salitang naibahagi sa araw na ito. Salamat po sa inihayag mong kasagutan. Tunay nga na ikaw ay banal at wala pong makakapantay sayong kapangyarihan. Pagpalain mo ang mga nakabasa ng iyong salita at silay manampalataya sayo at kilalanin ka bilang kanilang iisang Dios at tagapagligtas. Sa iyo Panginoon ang kapurihan, Sa pangalan ni Jesus Amen!
