Who’s responsible for evil?

Posted on September 21, 2018 by Steve Simms

When you speak out against evil and wrongdoing, don’t ignore your own life and heart. If you watch evil, think evil, are entertained by evil, you’ll have a hard time not embracing evil and being influenced by it. If we won’t allow God to establish His sovereign and righteous government in our own heart, how will the kingdom of God come to earth?

To blame God for tragedy, separates you from your greatest source of comfort. Christianity teaches that God made all things good and that evil is the result of rebellion against God. Evil is produced by the misuse and abuse of human free will. Don’t drag wrongdoing along the path of your life.

If you accept wrongdoing as normal for you and don’t resist it, it will gain ever stronger control over your life.Don’t let evil entrap you. The battle between good and evil takes place in every human being. Don’t let evil entrap you.

About Steve Simms

I like to look and think outside the box. In college I encountered Jesus Christ and I have been passionate about trying to get to know Him better ever since. My wife and I long to see the power and passion of the first Christ-followers come to life in our time. I have written a book about our experiences in non-traditional church, called, "Beyond Church: An Invitation To Experience The Lost Word Of The Bible--Ekklesia." If you need encouragement, search for: Elephants Encouraging The Room and/or check out my Amazon author page. Thank you!
