Exposing God our Creator
Summary: God’s Sovereignty and Oneness Makes God Evil
This argument asserts that the Bible provides no verses that clearly support human free will, while offering thousands that affirm God’s absolute sovereignty (total control) and oneness. The claim is that nothing occurs outside God’s direct will.
1. Absolute Sovereignty
The Bible is presented as teaching that God controls all aspects of reality: creation and nature (light, darkness, weather, animals, time, disasters), life and death (conception, lifespan, health, sickness, prosperity, poverty), the human inner life (hearts, desires, emotions, intentions, understanding, confusion, repentance, hardening), history and politics (kings, nations, borders, wars, victories, defeats, empires), events considered random (casting lots, daily steps, small details), spiritual realities (judgment, justice, restraint or release of evil), and the direction of history (prophecy, fulfillment, and the end of the world). Because God governs all of this, the argument concludes that nothing happens outside God’s direct will.
2. God as the Creator of Evil
Isaiah 45:7 (KJV) states: “I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.” It is argued that the Hebrew word ra means evil or wickedness, not merely calamity. Therefore, the Bible itself is said to teach that God creates evil, not merely permits it.
3. Divine Oneness with Humanity
Jesus prays that all may be “one” as he is one with the Father (John 17:21). Jesus quotes “you are gods” (John 10:34–35). In Matthew 25, Jesus identifies himself with the hungry, thirsty, and suffering. From this, the argument concludes that God is present in and identified with every human being.
4. Moral Conclusion: God as the Agent of Human Evil
If God is one with everyone, controls all thoughts, actions, and emotions, and creates evil, then God must also be every merr, aber, rst, teist, and ped****le acting through human beings. God’s failure to intervene in horrific suffering is therefore interpreted not as permission, but as direct orchestration.
5. God’s Hypocrisy According to Biblical Standards
God commands obedience to the Ten Commandments, including “thou shalt not murder,” yet commands genocide. God condemns anger, yet Jesus acts angrily in the temple. God commands Sabbath observance, yet Jesus breaks it. God forbids calling others “fools,” yet Jesus repeatedly does so. This is taken to show that God violates his own definitions of goodness, righteousness, and love.
7. Pharaoh, Adam and Eve, and Humanity
A repeated biblical pattern is identified: God commands obedience, God hardens hearts or causes rebellion, and God punishes the resulting disobedience. This is seen with Pharaoh in Exodus, Adam and Eve in Genesis, and humanity today, including eternal punishment in hell.
8. Israel and Selective Salvation
God promises to save Israel and fulfills this in Revelation with the salvation of 144,000 Israelites. This is interpreted as evidence that God selectively controls some people to obey and be saved while allowing or causing the rest of humanity to be condemned.
Overall Conclusion
Because God is portrayed as completely sovereign, the creator of evil, one with all humanity, and the controller of all actions and outcomes, the argument concludes that God is morally responsible for all evil in the world and therefore fails the Bible’s own moral standards. Divine goodness is thus rendered incoherent within the biblical framework, and the free will defense is abolished due to the absence of clear biblical support.
