So God created Satan and evil... Yeah, you're thinking whyyyyy, why, WHY!
Because He gave us that choice. That choice to bleive in him or not. Because we are not perfect in any way. So we are going to fall into that enticement in sin. And the ONLY Person that can forgive you and take away all that sin is Jesus. Died on the cross for us, the Man who deserves all our prase.
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well. (Psalm 139:14 NIV)
So God created mankind in his own image,
in the image of God he created them;
male and female he created them. (Genesis 1:27 NIV)
