Good Morning,

I have doubts. I have difficulties. I have thoughts that are embarrassing, shameful and base. They all, the thoughts, are programs from a different time.

Constantly we are bombarded with realities. We are bombarded with frames to segregate truth and fiction. The humorous part is that the black and white is regarded as equal. We were taught opposites as an exercise in moral relativism.

Evil is not the opposite of good. It is the reaction against good. It is the battery powered toy getting mad at the battery. This is the best way to think about evil. The power and Creator is the LORD. Evil is powerful ignorance. Knowledge is then a step towards understanding God.

With Jesus Christ the powerful evil is nothing. The powerful evil only affects other powerful evils participating in the great lie. Misery is the fruit. Misery is the fruit.

Philippians 4:6-7 KJV “Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

7. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”

Today's Psalm:

Psalm 36 KJV “The transgression of the wicked saith within my heart, that there is no fear of God before his eyes.

2. For he flattereth himself in his own eyes, until his iniquity be found to be hateful.

3. The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit: he hath left off to be wise, and to do good.

4. He deviseth mischief upon his bed; he setteth himself in a way that is not good; he abhorreth not evil.

5. Thy mercy, O Lord, is in the heavens; and thy faithfulness reacheth unto the clouds.

6. Thy righteousness is like the great mountains; thy judgments are a great deep: O Lord, thou preservest man and beast.

7. How excellent is thy lovingkindness, O God! therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of thy wings.

8. They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of thy house; and thou shalt make them drink of the river of thy pleasures.

9. For with thee is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light.

10. O continue thy lovingkindness unto them that know thee; and thy righteousness to the upright in heart.

11. Let not the foot of pride come against me, and let not the hand of the wicked remove me.

12. There are the workers of iniquity fallen: they are cast down, and shall not be able to rise.”

Evil is not a thing per se, not a power in itself, by definition evil was not created (“And God saw everything that he had made, and behold, it was very good”), but rather evil is the absence of God and His grace.

“This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.”

~ 1 John 1:5

Exactly as darkness is not a thing, not a force, but merely the absence of light. And our rebellion from the true light of God is the “evil” in our fallen world, a God-shaped emptiness in our hearts (for we are made in His image, icons of the source of all that is good — our rebellion is the empty darkness we call evil).

“For I know that nothing good dwells in me, that is, in my flesh. For I have the desire to do what is right, but not the ability to carry it out. For I do not do the good I want, but the evil I do not want is what I keep on doing.”

~ Romans 7:18-19
