Why should we bear the brunt of this cherub's sin? Why was there someone in the garden tempting mankind in the first place?
It may be that God, as perfect and without knowing evil, originally shared much power, and complete free will. Thus the enemy in falling away is powerful as a result of God's goodness not by design. One can then attribute the origin of evil to good

And the creepy attitude above that you have displayed is why you don't need to teach me anything again. If fact, I'll sweep the dust of you off of my feet as well and cast you into the Ignore List . . . something that Paul taught me to do.
I will teach who I want what want when I want, I have been preaching 35 years, and be my guest, only cowards run and hide instead of trying to be around ONLY THOSE they agree with. I forget more about the bible than you know, I can see that now.

Evil is not opposite God. Evil is under God, just like everything else is...

Isaiah
45:5 I [am] the LORD, and [there is] none else, [there is] no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me:
45:6 That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that [there is] none beside me. I [am] the LORD, and [there is] none else.
45:7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these [things].
45:8 Drop down, ye heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness: let the earth open, and let them bring forth salvation, and let righteousness spring up together; I the LORD have created it.
45:9 Woe unto him that striveth with his Maker! [Let] the potsherd [strive] with the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou? or thy work, He hath no hands?
45:10 Woe unto him that saith unto [his] father, What begettest thou? or to the woman, What hast thou brought forth?
Evil is the opposite of God, he is Holy.

It is the Holy Spirit, not computers, that gives a man understanding in discerning the written Word of God.. There is nothing wrong with your KJV. It simply verifies and validates and testifies of the complete and total sovereignty of our Maker.
And the Holy Spirit would never lead anyone unto truths who simply placed tey talents in the ground and buried them. Paul told us to show ourselves APPROVED of God.

2 Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

So, if you think the only Spirit will lead you unto ALL TRUTH while sitting around watching a ballgame, I get news for you, we need to STUDY, STUDY, STUDY, RESEARCH, RESEARCH, RESEARCH, PRAY, PRAY, PRAY.

Another victim of Scofield's "Bible". (and, of course, the evil one's of this world that successfully tempted him to compromise.)
Barely heard the name, the facts ate, the Universe is 13.7 billion years old. You and others who teach different drive off people who know better from the Gospel, just being honest my friend. Our job is to teach TRUTH.

I love you, brother. I was just bringing out the point that when modern science conflicts with God's Word, God's Word is always true. A morning is always a morning. An evening is always and evening, and a day is always a day. You can always trust that your KJV is true. You can always trust that the deceiver that deceives this world today is a liar...

Romans
3:3 For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect?
3:4 God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.
I will tell you this, my blog on this PROVES God's ord brother, he says there was DARKNESS on the Face of the DEEP. And after the big bang (which God ordered) there were no Stars created for the first 400 million years, so DARKNESS was on the face of the deep.

They mapped the Universe out with Microwaves' brother. We can SEE how old it is. But in every instance it PROVES God. Why get caught up in what YOWM MEANS? When I can prove it doesn't;t always mean Day, look it up yourselves in Strongs and STUDY IIT.

God Bless.

Evil is the opposite of God, he is Holy.
Nothing is equal to, or opposite of, God. What I am saying is that God is Sovereign and above all... which is exactly what the following verses emphasizes...

Isaiah
45:5 I [am] the LORD, and [there is] none else, [there is] no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me:
45:6 That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that [there is] none beside me. I [am] the LORD, and [there is] none else.
45:7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these [things].

Never fall for this Ying-Yang, Tao junk of eastern mysticism that promotes the idea that there is some universal balance of good and evil. God is good and good infinitely trumps evil. Don't think that the temporary situation of satanic opposition will last much longer.

Ying-Yang, Tao the idea that is not balance of good and evil.
Tao follows nature,
The law of nature is the law of survive, so the law of Taoism is the rule of life.
Ying-Yang is more like two man hug each other,one know what is evil but do good to the evil, one know what is good but do the evil to good.

You are getting your "facts" from the wrong source, and even those secular theories that you are referring to are outdated. Creation by intelligent design is now pretty much undeniable. 13 billion years of fudge factor to get from nothing to something has been tossed like a two-week old ham sandwich.
