Because Satan is immortal and there's a celestial war going on in which we are stuck in the middle of. We humans will also take part of the future judging of fallen angels. Satan will eventually be thrown into the lake of fire but first some things must take place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 i asked: if god exists, why is there evil? And I Ask: Because Unbelief Is Evil But he that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul: all they that hate me love death. Proverbs 8:36 Why Does God Wait The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. 2 Peter 3:9 For Judgement? And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come. Matthew 24:14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can choose good or evil. To rid the world of all evil and all sin would be to brain wash all humanity. We would worship God not because we want to but because we have to. God desperately wants us to choose him but he will not force this choice on us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then there would be less evil in the world. Why doesn't he do that. And because he's omnipotentional he can of course take all evil away for ever. If he can't, he is not omnipotent. Pretty simple.

Man is evil by nature. Man is the problem. Man chooses to be evil To destroy evil God has to destroy the source; Mankind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
