Also, you didn't respond to this:
I'm just curious.
Well... your interpretation is wrong too.
Isaiah is showing opposites as shown:
I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things. (Isaiah 45:7 KJV)
The problem is, evil is not the opposite of peace.
In Hebrew, the word for peace is translated shâlôm. That term has MANY meanings... but mostly well being, aka peace.
The term Râ‛âh which you are using is translated as evil in KJV, but it has MANY meanings as well... this is when a concordance is of such good use. The word Râ‛âh is actually meaning adversity... chaos. That is the opposite of peace.
To better realize what I am talking about, you need to look at other translations:
I form the light and create darkness, I bring prosperity and create disaster; I, the LORD, do all these things.(Isaiah 45:7 NIV)
This is when you need to read all of the scripture, and not just one verse to fully realize what I'm saying.
Another good example of KJV mistranslated would be:
Out of the mouth of the most High proceedeth not evil and good? (
Lamentations 3:38)
NIV version:
Is it not from the mouth of the Most High that both calamities and good things come? (Lamentations 3:38 NIV)
See the difference?
Evil is the opposite of good. God is completely good, therefore He cannot do evil. He cannot do morally evil things. Therefore, He did not create it.
God created all things, but evil isn't something that is "created". It is simply the absence of good. It is the same as cold is the absence of heat, it isn't an entity of itself. The same as darkness is the absence of light.
God didn't create evil. He did allow it though. He allowed it based on *drum roll, here it comes* free will. He gave the angels and Satan free will, just as He gave man free will. If He didn't, then Satan would have never been able to rebel, and Adam and Eve would never have sinned. Creation would have been perfect, and there would be no need for heaven or hell. God didn't make His creation with flaws. He is perfect in all ways. The only logical way that creation fell from perfection was free will. Predestination doesn't allow for that, and thus it cannot be logical to believe in it. That would limit God to being imperfect based on His imperfect creation, and I for one do not accept that as anywhere near logical.
I hope this helps at all.
