When did God create create evil.
When did Evil originate?
The question: “When did God create evil?” is important. In the Bible, God reveals the answer to be:
before the fall, before Adam's sin … when everything was perfect. The evil that God created did not corrupt
the earth. Most believers and unbelievers alike do not believe that the Good God could create the evil we see
because they assume that evil has been in the world only since Adam and others have been making bad choices.
Yet evil existed before Adam sinned, and evil did not corrupt the perfect Garden of Eden, in which it first existed.
Certainly God created Adam before Adam fell into sin. Certainly, God also commanded Adam
before Adam choose his only bad option and broke God’s commandment. And finally, The Death consequence
of breaking God’s commandment certainly existed in God’s mind before Adam sinned.
God created all three parts of evil, before Adam’s choice of the ‘bad’ option
in the perfect Garden of Eden. God’s creation of evil did not corrupt the Garden or the earth or Adam.
So we believe God, Who created evil, and we define evil to be exactly what He created.
