Dear Fellow Believers,
Even though Isaiah 45:7 clearly states that God created evil, no Christian believes it. The most this unbelieving group of religionists is able to admit is that God ALLOWS evil, or merely uses it. But where does evil come from? From the devil, of course. And they mean—ULTIMATELY from the devil. Can God control Satan's diabolical activities? Nope.
Other than that, everything is fine.
In this audio from the summer of 1999, five other believer and myself went on Christian radio in Cleveland, OH, to explain to anyone who would listen the common-sensical rational behind the purpose of evil—not only the purpose of evil, but its source and future. Spoiler alert: evil will be abolished. Who believes that among the ranks of so-called believers? None of them. Every
religionist I know—especially the Christian variety—believe that evil is eternal. God is powerless to prevent it.
Let's turn from fiction to fact. All evil will one day be abolished from God's universe, as well as the universal curse of death. Listen to the truth unfold as six broadcasting amateurs dare to believe God's own Words concerning evil: its definition, its entrance into God's universe, and it's ultimate overthrow.
Rodney Paris of Texas once again proves himself a soldier of the evangel by laboriously digitizing this twenty-three year-old cassette tape and turning it into a multi-media extravaganza that anyone can learn from. A more recent production of mine called "My Problem With Evil," from the "Return to Zender" archives (January, 2018) is tagged onto the end, a personal application of the
aforementioned theological truths.
I commend this presentation to you, the members of the body of Christ scattered throughout the world. Grace and peace to you, always,
—Martin
