[h=3]since when is God evil, this does not say god is evil and does not line up with scripture
God is the one that decides we are only the clay
2 Chronicles 36:12He did
evil in the eyes of the Lord his
God and did
not humble himself before Jeremiah the prophet, who spoke the word of the Lord.
Jeremiah 44:3because of the
evil they have done. They aroused my anger by burning
incense to and worshiping other
gods that neither they
nor you
nor your ancestors ever knew.
2 Chronicles 36:12He did
evil in the eyes of the Lord his
God and did
not humble himself before Jeremiah the prophet, who spoke the word of the Lord.
Judges 10:6[
Jephthah ] Again the Israelites did
evil in the eyes of the Lord. They served the Baals and the Ashtoreths, and the
gods of Aram, the
gods of Sidon, the
gods of Moab, the
gods of the Ammonites and the
gods of the Philistines. And because the Israelites forsook the Lord and
no longer served him,
So who does the evil not God?
Isaiah 45
[/h]New International Version (NIV)
45 “This is what the Lord says to his anointed,
to Cyrus, whose right hand I take hold of
to subdue nations before him
and to strip kings of their armor,
to open doors before him
so that gates will not be shut:
[SUP]
2 [/SUP]I will go before you
and will level the mountains
I will break down gates of bronze
and cut through bars of iron.
[SUP]
3 [/SUP]I will give you hidden treasures,
riches stored in secret places,
so that you may know that I am the Lord,
the God of Israel, who summons you by name.
[SUP]
4 [/SUP]For the sake of Jacob my servant,
of Israel my chosen,
I summon you by name
and bestow on you a title of honor,
though you do not acknowledge me.
[SUP]
5 [/SUP]I am the Lord, and there is no other;
apart from me there is no God.
I will strengthen you,
though you have not acknowledged me,
[SUP]
6 [/SUP]so that from the rising of the sun
to the place of its setting
people may know there is none besides me.
I am the Lord, and there is no other.
[SUP]7 [/SUP]I form the light and create darkness,
I bring prosperity and create disaster;
I, the Lord, do all these things.
[SUP]
8 [/SUP]“You heavens above, rain down my righteousness;
let the clouds shower it down.
Let the earth open wide,
let salvation spring up,
let righteousness flourish with it;
I, the Lord, have created it.
[SUP]
9 [/SUP]“Woe to those who quarrel with their Maker,
those who are nothing but potsherds
among the potsherds on the ground.
Does the clay say to the potter,
‘What are you making?’
Does your work say,
‘The potter has no hands’?
[SUP]
10 [/SUP]Woe to the one who says to a father,
‘What have you begotten?’
or to a mother,
‘What have you brought to birth?’
[SUP]
11 [/SUP]“This is what the Lord says—
the Holy One of Israel, and its Maker:
Concerning things to come,
do you question me about my children,
or give me orders about the work of my hands?
[SUP]
12 [/SUP]It is I who made the earth
and created mankind on it.
My own hands stretched out the heavens;
I marshaled their starry hosts.
[SUP]
13 [/SUP]I will raise up Cyrus[SUP]
[b][/SUP] in my righteousness:
I will make all his ways straight.
He will rebuild my city
and set my exiles free,
but not for a price or reward,
says the Lord Almighty.”
[SUP]
14 [/SUP]This is what the Lord says:
“The products of Egypt and the merchandise of Cush,[SUP]
[c][/SUP]
and those tall Sabeans—
they will come over to you
and will be yours;
they will trudge behind you,
coming over to you in chains.
They will bow down before you
and plead with you, saying,
‘Surely God is with you, and there is no other;
there is no other god.’”
[SUP]
15 [/SUP]Truly you are a God who has been hiding himself,
the God and Savior of Israel.
[SUP]
16 [/SUP]All the makers of idols will be put to shame and disgraced;
they will go off into disgrace together.
[SUP]
17 [/SUP]But Israel will be saved by the Lord
with an everlasting salvation;
you will never be put to shame or disgraced,
to ages everlasting.
[SUP]
18 [/SUP]For this is what the Lord says—
he who created the heavens,
he is God;
he who fashioned and made the earth,
he founded it;
he did not create it to be empty,
but formed it to be inhabited—
he says:
“I am the Lord,
and there is no other.
[SUP]
19 [/SUP]I have not spoken in secret,
from somewhere in a land of darkness;
I have not said to Jacob’s descendants,
‘Seek me in vain.’
I, the Lord, speak the truth;
I declare what is right.
[SUP]
20 [/SUP]“Gather together and come;
assemble, you fugitives from the nations.
Ignorant are those who carry about idols of wood,
who pray to gods that cannot save.
[SUP]
21 [/SUP]Declare what is to be, present it—
let them take counsel together.
Who foretold this long ago,
who declared it from the distant past?
Was it not I, the Lord?
And there is no God apart from me,
a righteous God and a Savior;
there is none but me.
[SUP]
22 [/SUP]“Turn to me and be saved,
all you ends of the earth;
for I am God, and there is no other.
[SUP]
23 [/SUP]By myself I have sworn,
my mouth has uttered in all integrity
a word that will not be revoked:
Before me every knee will bow;
by me every tongue will swear.
[SUP]
24 [/SUP]They will say of me, ‘In the Lord alone
are deliverance and strength.’”
All who have raged against him
will come to him and be put to shame.
[SUP]
25 [/SUP]But all the descendants of Israel
will find deliverance in the Lord
and will make their boast in him.
Psalm 116:5
The Lord
is gracious and righteous; our
God is full of compassion.
Luke 4:43But he said, “I must proclaim the good news of the kingdom of
God to the other towns also, because that
is why I was sent.”
Luke 5:21The Pharisees and the teachers of the law began thinking to themselves, “Who
is this fellow who speaks blasphemy? Who can forgive sins but
God alone?”
Unbelievers stick to the Law of self rigtheousness and do not think they need God
Romans 1:25They exchanged the truth about
God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who
is forever praised. Amen.
Romans 2:4Or do you show contempt for the riches of his kindness, forbearance and patience, not realizing that
God’s kindness
is intended to lead you to repentance?
