I The LORD Create EVIL

Why didn't God use H343 'êyd ade From the same as H181 (in the sense of bending down); oppression; by implication misfortune, ruin: - calamity, destruction, or H6869 tsârâh  tsaw-raw' Feminine of H6862; tightness (that is, figuratively trouble); transitively a female rival: - adversary, adversity, affliction, anguish, distress, tribulation, trouble,
instead of RA, if He didn't want evil to mean moral evil but only calamities?

H7451
רעה רע
ra‛ râ‛âh
rah, raw-aw'

This includes the second (feminine) form; as adjective or noun: - adversity, affliction, bad, calamity, + displease (-ure), distress, evil ([-favouredness], man, thing), + exceedingly, X great, grief (-vous), harm, heavy, hurt (-ful), ill (favoured), + mark, mischief, (-vous), misery, naught (-ty), noisome, + not please, sad (-ly), sore, sorrow, trouble, vex, wicked (-ly, -ness, one), worse (-st) wretchedness, wrong.

Maybe if you did not use this scripture out of contexxt moron. Evil came from the Hebrew Rah which also can mean clamity adveristy etc. It's not talking about moral evil. God is talking to Israel at the time and what was Israel then? SAVED, In it's proper context it is distress correction God brings not Genreal Evil. The God you preach is a dictator. The One true God of the Universe is NOT a dictator. Why bother preaching if your a calvinist

@deancrawford06 Well moron, if you had any ability of understanding you would realize I dealt with this objection in the video! As far as preaching is concerned we preach for 3 reasons, #1 God commands us to, #2 we have no idea who the elect are, so we must assume that everyone in the world is of the elect, #3 preaching is the means that God has ordained to bring His elect to Himself, in other word, no preaching no one saved! BTW, God is a Dictator, 2Pet 2:1 Lord is DESPOT!

@ele12957returns Here Ed, to show you I am not a hypocrite I am posting your comment here.

This is a comment left to me by ele12957returns

"you read the bible the same way, in ur mind you delete what doesn't line up with Calvinism.

You demand of others what you refuse to provide for them. That is called hypocrisy! I know you will delete this comment but I know you read it and that is fine for me."

it's ironic how people can't accept the LORD for who He is and for what He does, and he doesn't hide it or lie about it. When we say " I want to be accepted for who I am" Pray for wisdom if you truly have a relationship with Him, pray for a relationship if you don't truly have one. "Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands ALL men everywhere to repent" Acts 17:30

@JesusforLife2 Let me have your e-mail and I will send you the audio book of "God and Evil Problem Solved" By Gordon H Clark. It really answers this statement, "God would have to do evil in order to "create" it". God creates evil by decreeing that it takes place.

[JesusforLife2]

@TennesseeOwnsMyBones Im more interested in the logical aspect of this. How can God create moral evil when morality is an action or lack of action. God would have to do evil in order to "create" it.

@1689Baptist For crying out loud, Jeff... The effects of war is what is refered to in this context. The loss of the harvest, the loss of manpower to work the fields, the loss of food stuffs, the loss of independence, the loss of PEACE. I really cannot believe how adamant you are in maintaining the God of Christianity CREATES moral evil... It is truly unbelievable...

[1689Baptist]

@JesusforLife2

Oh, and BTW, since when is WAR not a moral evil? Think about that. I don't know if you would want to classify WAR as a (calamity).

[1689Baptist]

Cont...

The opposite of peace with God, SALVATION, IS wickedness. I have not changed the meaning of the word PEACE at all, it has altogether to do with whom we have peace. and there is no peace with God outside of SALVATION, and everything outside of salvation IS SIN period.

[1689Baptist]

@JesusforLife2 You said, "War (calamity) is the opposite of peace with God." NO, IT IS NOT, I am not making shalom special in this verse, you keep missing the point. shalom means what it means, it means PEACE period, It does not mean ethical good. Now that we understand that it means peace, we must ask peace with what or who? Peace from war, peace with our neighbor? In this case peace is primarily peace with GOD, and the ONLY peace with God is found in Salvation, righteousness.
