Did you know that God is only good, and in Him there is no sin? (James 3:5)

Does God put sickness on people?

You might say, “No, but He allows sickness for a reason or to perfect our faith.”

Did God cause the storm that took all of those lives and destroyed so much property?

You might say, “Of course not, but He allowed Satan to bring the storm and used the storm to bring people to salvation for His glory.”

Did you know that when we say that God “allowed” something bad to happen or “allowed” evil to manifest itself that we are saying that God is committing sin by knowing to do good, and refusing to do it?

Think about it: If God knows to do good, and does it not, to Him it is also sin, and it is impossible for God to sin because in Him there is no sin!

So, before you start saying “God allowed” or “God used” evil for His purpose, you should be aware that you are ascribing sin to God.

God doesn’t allow evil!

Evil prospers because of man and Satan alone.

God warns; God blesses; God leads; God guides; God comforts; God heals; God saves.

God is good all the time!
