Because Satan is the God of this world sad but true.. Satan Fell from Heaven and tempts man kind... God permited it, because he wanted men to have free will. Since most men have chosen to follow satan and not God, it has become a problem in the world.. The last days are predicted to be when wickedness has come to the full. Which I believe has.. It is also said that a generation will not pass until all things are fufilled, when Israel becomes a nation.. It became a nation in 1948

Firstly you must know Evil is not created. Evil is reache dthrough a process. A process from Good to bad. Evil is the absence of Good. If you can understand why the apple turns brown and rot when left detached from the tree, exposed to the air, then you come quite close to understand good and evil. Becasue human have been cut off from the lifeforce of God, it is detached from good and exposed to the "priciplaities and powers of the air". The devil was the arch angel Lucifer before he fell, he became evil becasue he decide to leave the Good God for good. Thus the deterioting life becomes bad and evil. The end of the world will come when there is no more good left. That is before the good news is preached do the entire world. Therefore there is still some good left. Therefore not the end of the world yet.

OK time for you to turn off CNN, get out of the house and go climb a tree. Feel the grass under your feet as you walk to the tree, take a close look at the bark. try to count the birds that share your tree. Yes there is a lot of evil in the world, but there is just as much good. You just need to take a little time a find it. I'm not so sure the Bible says anything about an end. I like to think of it as a new beginning.

God DID create the heaven and the earth and yes there are alot of evil in it and yes the end will come like the Bible says. The reason that is so much evil in the world is because God gave us freewill and people are taking advantage of this!@

God created the world, but he also gave man the ablity to choose for himself. Eve chose to take the forbben fruit, but she could not choose the consequence of that choice, which was the fall of Man.
Like this people are free to choose good or evil, to choose to love one another or to hate one another. It's obvious that many in this world have chosen to hate and destory.
The end is near, however, I don't think the end is quite here yet.

God created a clean and perfect world. He gave man that He also created a choice. He placed them on a free moral agency God let them choose for themselves what they would do. Satan himself became jealous of this world and the creation of God and wanted part of it for himself. That is when he came down into the Garden and beguiled Eve into sin. Adam, displaying the role of Christ to come, redeemed his wife, Eve, who had sinned. Had it not been for Adam redeeming his wife, we would still be living in a perfect world. Adam chose to step outside of this perfection and since that time life has been a struggle. God has always punished evil. If God does not destroy this earth, He would have to raise up Sodom and Gomorrah and repent to them for destroying them (because they were evil).

There is soo much evil, pain, sin and suffering in this world because not everyone goes to God, they don't look for Him. Some do not have enough faith in Him and do not follow their religions purely going to worship on regular basis and so on.. That is why there is still so much negativity left in the world.

I think it's so we appreciate the things we have. If there was no evil, would we appreciate the good in things? If there was no hardship, would we truly appreciate the happy times? Evil has been here since the beginning, in Eden with Adam and Eve. God gives us a choice between good and evil, and each person decides the path they're going to take.

~When we consider the suffering and injustice in the world, the existence of a loving, benevolent God may seem an unlikely reality. How could such a powerful yet compassionate being allow inequity and pain to exist? It seems inconceivable that someone with the supposed authority of the Great Creator and the alleged kindness of the Good Shepherd would stand idly by and watch millions of people suffer.
The problem with these and similar accusations is that they are based on the mistaken assumption that God directly dictates the events of the world. This is simply not true. When God created humans, He did not merely make a puppet that would ignorantly obey, but He gave them the freedom to choose their destiny. With this freedom, God in effect enabled them to control their own world. It was God's desire that His creation would voluntarily choose a life of communion with Him.
But this freedom of choice also leaves open the opportunity to deny God and live according to the edicts of self. The pursuit of selfish ends without regard for others has caused much suffering and hardship. Self-centered quests have damaged countless lives. In actuality, God has nothing to do with the mess in the world; humanity has itself and it's own decisions to blame for the problems it faces today.
Why did God allow the kind of freedom that could potentially cause sorrow and grief? Ultimately we cannot fully comprehend God's reasoning; we know, however, that God purposely created rational thinking in human beings, enabling them to freely love Him. God's gift of free will has enabled us to live and enjoy life as individuals. It is fact that the same freedom has been the cause of instability and pain is the unfortunate consequence of the collective choices made by our free-will human existence.
God never promised life without adversity. The point of a relationship with God is not to escape a difficult life. Each individual must cope with his or her own world regardless of the circumstances.
So what is God's answer to the mess? He, in His infinite kindness offers His love, comfort, and favor to anyone who asks. If invited, God is more than willing to extend Himself on a daily basis to any person in need. This does not eliminate crisis, but it puts a person in contact with the one force that can absolutely preserve inner stability and bring peace. ~

Yes, the end is close!! The rapture will be sudden...it will be selective. We must be ready!! If you're interested in the events of the end times, visit http://www.endtime.com . Visit http://www.upci.org , and see about getting a June 2006 copy of the Pentecostal Herald. It is strictly about the rapture...and being left behind. It's my all-time favorite issue!! I've read it several times. Lord Bless...!!
