Principally there are three energies of the Lord External, marginal, Spiritual.
The external energy is also called illusion or so-called satan.
The internal energy means following the orders of God.
We are marginal energies? We can place ourself in the Lord's external energy or Lord's internal energy, we have a choice.
Actually God wants to reclaim us back to Him. But we must be purified.
Those who are purified are under the internal energy and they accept disciples who are also interested to situate themselves in the internal energy. They do not force anyone but render as a service try to help those who are sincere for God-realization. That is nature of Internal Energy.
The external energy acts when people are not so interested and want to enjoy independently. They act in their own way and according to the action the reactions occur. The external energy or so called devil is like the police. The police do not want to control you but because you have accepted to be controlled that is you have become a criminal so you are forced into the jail. When the term is over you are set free. Again if you commit a mistake the police do their duty, that means by violating you have agreed to be controlled. This way it can continue. This process by getting the beatings one is gradually transformed.
But by voluntarily accepting to hear the messages of God one is rectified of their unwanted propensities quickly.
This is a scientific process it is not a sentiment.
"Religion without philosophy is sentiment.
Philosophy without religion is mental speculation."
Together is the science of God. It does matter what you accept, The Bible, Bhagavad-gita but the enquiry to a realized person must be there.

THE NONEXISTENCE OF EVIL
The true explanation of this subject is very difficult. Know that beings are of two kinds: material and spiritual, those perceptible to the senses and those intellectual.
Things which are sensible are those which are perceived by the five exterior senses; thus those outward existences which the eyes see are called sensible. Intellectual things are those which have no outward existence but are conceptions of the mind. For example, mind itself is an intellectual thing which has no outward existence. All man's characteristics and qualities form an intellectual existence and are not sensible.
Briefly, the intellectual realities, such as all the qualities and admirable perfections of man, are purely good, and exist. Evil is simply their nonexistence. So ignorance is the want of knowledge; error is the want of guidance; forgetfulness is the want of memory; stupidity is the want of good sense. All these things have no real existence.
In the same way, the sensible realities are absolutely good, and evil is due to their nonexistence -- that is to say, blindness is the want of sight, deafness is the want of hearing, poverty is the want of wealth, illness is the want of health, death is the want of life, and weakness is the want of strength.
Nevertheless a doubt occurs to the mind -- that is, scorpions and serpents are poisonous. Are they good or evil, for they are existing beings? Yes, a scorpion is evil in relation to man; a serpent is evil in relation to man; but in relation to themselves they are not evil, for their poison is their weapon, and by their sting they defend themselves. But as the elements of their poison do not agree with our elements -- that is to say, as there is antagonism between these different elements, therefore, this antagonism is evil; but in reality as regards themselves they are good.
The epitome of this discourse is that it is possible that one thing in relation to another may be evil, and at the same time within the limits of its proper being it may not be evil. Then it is proved that there is no evil in existence; all that God created He created good. This evil is nothingness; so death is the absence of life. When man no longer receives life, he dies. Darkness is the absence of light: when there is no light, there is darkness. Light is an existing thing, but darkness is nonexistent. Wealth is an existing thing, but poverty is nonexisting.
Then it is evident that all evils return to nonexistence. Good exists; evil is nonexistent.

If you look for scientific proof, then what is the nature of life? What is the motive force that is "life?" Where does it come from? Where does it go at "death?" Answer these questions and you will answer your own

God and Devil are both creations of the human mind so really have more in common than differences

Science can't prove everything. Science can't even tell us what really happens when we die.
