"The thief (enemy) cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I AM come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. I AM the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his LIFE for the sheep."
There seems to be an effort to portray "EVIL" as something not so bad, while "GOOD" as something that is not so good! Let's be clear, GOD IS GOOD (James 1:17), and anything not from GOD is from evil. GOD can, and does, use the evil to being about good for HIS GLORY!
The enemy is responsible for all the hurt and destruction in this world. In Genesis 50:20, Joseph speaks and says "But as for you, ye thought EVIL against me; BUT GOD meant it unto GOOD, to bring to pass, as it is this day, TO SAVE much people alive."
GOD is interested in doing good. The enemy uses many disguises in an attempt to "deceive" people into not trusting GOD. When you boil it all down, we either TRUST GOD, or we trust the enemy. Hebrews 11:6 says "But without faith it is impossible to please him"!
The choice is clear! We can believe in a HOLY GOD, or place our trust in ourselves or any other false god in existence that has been hatched by the enemy. I will not lend any credibility to any false religion by naming them. In Romans 8:31, the Apostle Paul tells us "If God be for us, who can be against us?"
GOD has not changed. We have to decide if we want to conform to HIS image! Or are we satisfied with "LIFE 'LESS' ABUNDANTLY"?
