What Would Be If the Evil Had Never Existed?

Evil is everywhere - in nature, among people, in the sky or below it. It can be faced in the form of death, accident, injury, murder, robbery, adultery, natural disasters... and so on. But who is the reason evil to exist in our world? Is it an immutable art of good or it has a beginning and consequently will have an end?

Does Every Single Person Is Evil?

Unfortunately, the good is not our inherent quality. Even in innocent babies, you can notice some features of evil - crying every midnight, or crying when you forbid them something that is not good for them. When the baby grows up, the little kid prefers to play with other children's toys and to not give his own. It sounds strange but the evil could be found even in babies! If so what to say for adults?

What Is The Origin Of Evil?

The Evil began with rebellion and with pride. Pride is actually the basis of the evil. Did you ever think about that?

What Ezekiel 28 chapter - 14 to17 verses say is that there was a beautiful and very wise God creature, which had access to God presence, but because of the rebellion and violence that have arisen in his heart, it was expelled from heaven by God.

"Your heart was filled with pride

because of all your beauty."

So there was a beautiful, blameless and innocent creature of God, which somehow step by step developed a pride in its heart and this was the beginning of evil.

One of the basic features of evil is that it always seeks for followers. The same happen to this creature also - he started to convince the other heaven creatures - angels to support him in his rebellion against God - and too many were also infected by evil.

Here is the Bible report about these events happened in heaven. Revelation, chapter 12, verses 7 -9 say that the war had broken out in heaven among two groups - the Michael who is Jesus and his angels and dragon or Satan and decoyed by him angels. The victory was won by Jesus and the Satan and his followers were thrown down to this world.

Oh no, where the devil and his angels was thrown? To the earth - in our world. That is why you and me now suffering of the consequences of evil. But why he was thrown here? Was it fair decision of God?
