Å℘◎﹩☂øł☤ḉ ℚυ◎тℯṧ : "Only God is good without any outside help. All others in the universe are only reflectors of God's goodness by their good choice. Because evil is the absence of good, God did not create it but he gave a choice for angels and humans alike to choose independence leading to evil or dependence leading to continual goodness of His character to be revealed through them. Sadly both failed in to fulfilling His sovereign purpose at the end. Even failure can glorify God because God is good all the time." — Abraham Israel
"Many people ask, 'If God allowed evil after knowing the devastation that it will cause to the whole world, why does He question us when we do evil?'. The answer to this lies in knowing that it is God who took the risk in creating us as moral being accountable to Him for our choices we make, whether good or bad. If God had allowed evil without making his goodness to be revealed through it, it would have been a tyranny on his side, but now the ball is in the moral human being's court and so we cannot ask why God allowed it, instead realize the power of the choice that we have in our hand and use it to glorify God who gave it freely to us." — Abraham Israel
"If God hates sin and still chose to create angels and humankind as moral beings of choices, it is because He is the embodiment of love." — Abraham Israel
