G-d created evil as a learning tool -- if everything were good there would be no opportunity for growth. We would all be stagnant -- in a stasis.

The Torah tells us: "See! Today I have set before you [a free choice] between life and good [on one side], and death and evil [on the other]." D'varim / Deuteronomy 30:15.

"I (G-d) form the light, and create darkness; I make peace, and create evil; I HaShem do all these things." Isaiah 45:7.

G-d created everything including suffering, including evil - yet we know G-d is good.

So that means that suffering and even evil have a good purpose.

Consider why G-d created this world in the first place -- with its imperfections, its imperfect people, its hurricanes, its earthquakes, its children with cancer, its murderers, its despots. . . why would a loving G-d create a world where these things exist?

There was already a perfect creation -- the angels exist in a place of no evil, no temptations -- and no free will.

And no growth.

Stasis.

Mere existence -- not life.

G‑d created our world incomplete and imperfect so that humans can complete it. Consider the very first covenant between G-d and the Jewish people, the brit milah (covenant of circumcision). The act of circumcision is the human "completing" the male body is a human act. This covenant is a symbol of the human / G-d partnership.

Jesus is coming soon. There shall be New. Jerusalem, full of all Righteousness (Light, Good & Life). No Darkness, no bad and no Death. If Adam and Eve had not disobeyed God's Instructions, there wouldn't have been Darkness, Evil and Death till now.

Is God not G-d

Please respect his holy name

yea soon

You go wait tire.... You think if that is what God wanted from the beginning, he couldn't have made it so?... Be waiting for your fictitious Jesus to come from the sky.. Don't educate yourself...

Br'eshit / Genesis 8:21 . . ."G-d said to Himself, ". . . the inclination of man's heart is evil from his youth."

It's right there in the Torah: from his YOUTH, not from his birth.

There is no such thing as "original" sin.

Christianity NEEDS original sin. Christian theology holds that a sinless Jesus was part of the heavenly Father's plan from the outset, to redeem mankind. After all, the act of disobedience by Adam and Chava in the Garden of Eden, the Fall of Man, placed the stain of sin on humanity, one that cannot be removed through a person's own actions.

This opens the way for Jesus, the perfect sacrificial offering of the future, was born through the impregnation by the Holy Spirit of the virgin, Mary. Jesus was thus born without the stain of Original Sin, since he was conceived of G-d and not through the customary act of copulation by two sinful humans.

First of all: sex is not “sinful” it is a gift from G-d to “be fruitful and multiply.” Secondly there is no original sin that makes all of mankind tainted so that a human sacrifice (or god-sacrifice) has to come along to redeem us. Man is not born “into” sin.

Read D'varim / Deuteronomy 30:15 "See! Today I have set before you [a free choice] between life and good [on one side], and death and evil [on the other]. . .30:19 I call heaven and earth as witnesses! Before you I have placed life and death, the blessing and the curse. You must choose life, so that you and your descendants will survive."

We are not born into sin. To sin or not to sin is our choice.

Yes, we are inclined to do evil -- to sin. But we are not born evil. We are not born into sin.

Sh'mot / Exodus 32:22 "Do not be angry, my lord," Aaron answered. "You know how prone these people are to evil."

Aaron doesn't say the people ARE evil. He says they are prone to evil.

If we were all condemned to sin (as the concept of original sin asserts) then why would G-d punish us for something we couldn't control? Is the Chrstian god so cruel that he would let man be so condemned?

This is, perhaps, their idea of a loving god? It is not the G-d of the T'nach, T'hillim / Psalm 5:4 "You are not a G-d who takes pleasure in evil; with you the wicked cannot dwell."

God created evil so as to give us opportunity to growth? Growth into what? So what have u learnt from evil since u were born? Has it made u superman?

If a 40 years old man molest ur 4 years old daughter to death, kindly tell me the lesson learnt for you, ur daughter and the 40yrs old man

The same Conscience given to Adam was in Christ Jesus to obey and/or disobey Instructions. Adam disobeyed, Jesus obeyed. That's why He's Jesus Christ The Righteous. There are so much wickedness on Earth. God is giving us, including you sufficient time to repent to be able to make the new Jerusalem. I & my Family have accepted Jesus Christ as our Lord & Saviour and we all shall make The New Jerusalem IJN AMEN AMEN AMEN!!!

Many aren't yet spiritually ready to understand the purpose of the negative power called Satan or Kal. A creature made as such deliberately by the Almighty God, the Kal acts as the headmaster of the lower schools and ensures all our thoughts, words and actions sooner or later come back to us.

In a way, you are right

At least your understanding is better than many men of God.

There are no separate God's for light and darkness, or good and evil... There is only one power, that is why it is called a universe....
