Why does God do what he does? Rom 9 tells us [Spirituality & Religion]

“[b]That he shall make known the riches of his Glory on the vessels of mercy, which he had beforehand prepared for Glory”[/b]

Dr John Piper took a year sabbatical to study Romans 9 and wrote a book on the justification of God! I haven’t read it but if you want to understand the justification of why God created evil this is Dr. Pipers expertise!

Without evil, how would we know good. Jesus is the balance. Evil caused a need for redemption, and we are redeemed by his blood.

You argue every day!
People know God and you argue with them! Not respectful!

@Emosaur So your rubber girlfriend isn't meeting your need to abuse people so you have to abuse people on SW? How sad is that.

You got that right, brother. It's not about religion, never has been or ever will about religion. It's about a close relationship with our Heavenly Father.

I would not say God created evil.. Evil is simply going against or failing to do what is good.. The will of God for mankind is good.. God allowed the ability to be evil but he did not make us evil..

Because He's God and we're not. He is the only one that knows what He's doing.

Yes He is! So we just need to trust his heart! And we know his heart from what Jesus did on the cross for us!
