You need to clarify what you mean by 'of'? 'Of' connotes being "of the same essence." As in the Trinity being one God in three persons of the same essence.

Are you implying the materials that God called forth to create the universe is of his same essence? That doesn't make sense.

God creates.
He spoke.
And things came to be.



No, you need to substitute every instance where you use the word 'sin' for rebellion or transgression.

God can't rebel or transgress against himself. Sin is defined in relation to God. Like hate is defined in relation to love. Hate is simply the absence of love. Similarly, sin is rebellion against God. It is to be in a state of opposition to God. You're trying to define sin or evil as this separate sort of phenomenon when it has, in fact, an opposing/inverse relationship to God.

Think about love. We say God is love. Love can only be defined in relationship. It's not some standalone phenomena. You can't know what love is unless you are in relationship with something else. This is one of the things that disproves Islam because Muslims like to copy Christians claims and say that Allah is love as well. But how can Allah be love without being in relationship with anything before the creation of humanity? Muslims proclaim that there are no persons equal to Allah. Christianity purports that God is love because the Father is in an eternal perfect relationship with the Son, and the Holy Spirit. The Father being in relationship with the Son. The Son being in relationship with the Church. And Man being in relationship with Woman.

God created angels and men and gave them free will. Rebellion was found in Satan, a created being, who exercised his free will. That is the origin of Sin. Satan was not made of the same essence of God. Therefore, sin cannot originate from God but from his created beings.

What you are trying to say is equivalent to this: Global warming is a threat to human thriving, but because God created the Heavens and Earth, global warming comes from God.

No. Global warming is a direct result of humanity's exercise of free will on Earth.

In our mortal state, confined to time and space, we ask the question of why does God allow evil or sin to exist.

God could surely destroy all evil, but in doing so, he would have to destroy all of humanity, because as scripture states, we are all evil, down to our very core.

God, in fact, allowed evil to persist in our temporal state to demonstrate his love. That act of love demonstrated through the work of Christ who takes all of humanity's evil/sin upon himself and dies in humanity place. The ultimate act of love where a God puts his own self up in place of humanity. God in his essence is love. And therefore the most loving thing he could do is to allow evil to persist so that the work of Christ can triumph as opposed to just wiping all of evil out and in turn wiping out all of humanity.

God is indeed Alpha and Omega. For it has already been declared....

In the beginning, God created the Heavens and Earth.

And in the end, God triumphs and reigns from everlasting to everlasting.

It has already happened from an eternal standpoint. Sin and evil has already been destroyed. All that is left is God as that is all that has ever been.

Satan (meaning adversary/tempter) doesn’t commit evil he just tempts people into committing evil but it’s your choice as a human being to prove that you’re above his influence which so many fail. Also satan didn’t reside in hell there was never any mention of that in the Bible he’s the king of this world. Do with this knowledge what I’ve told you
Where in the Bible does it say Satan is king of this world?

Because its job is to be the adversary and confuse and comfound man. Only the elect are meant to not be drawn in.

And right now the Earth is its playground. It's having a ball. Pretty much everyone is plugged into its matrix.

Because he never existed.. Fear construct control for people who need bogeymen to stay in line. The devil is in your actions and fears
But that would mean we’ll never figure out why we exist in the first place. If there’s no eternal God default, then how can existence come from nothing from a logical aspect?

There's still much to learn. For clarity I meant the Devil doesn't exist. I believe there is a higher power. I don't take the bible literally at all and people should stop trying to. Take the lessons and understand them don't dwell on it like it's a history book. The level to which people debate the existence of the devil is exasperated by their own fears. If you live righteous there should be nothing weighing on your conscious that you anticipate having problems with in your afterlife.

If you kill your arch nemesis, what do you have left?

Imagine if Joker succeeded in killing Batman. Would probably rope.
