According to your bible, where do you think evil comes from?

Isaiah 45:7
I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace and create evil: I the Lord do all these things.

"Lust" is related to the word "list."

Compare Isaiah 57:5 with the proposal by Mr Knightley to Emma under the spreading tree.

James 1:14 says that epithumia (turning about sudden periods of rage or passion that are maddening like wine) draws people out. This appears to mean that isolating your concerns in life down to a specific cause that you personally know something about (I think that this is what the Christian cult leaders try to convince people to do in their organised activities that have nothing at all to do with the Bible and have more in common with alleged success techniques as practised in the business world - 2 Peter 2:13) will lead you straight into situations where you are giving out personal information and personal energy to causes you are not being given the full picture about. It leads to lust because people just get sick of the "work" that's involved in doing things that actually come naturally to human beings from the moment they're born - sponging off Mummy, screaming when you're upset, being the centre of attention, paying attention to your own health.

In contrast, prophecy (pro means "in favour of", not "before", phetes means speaker) is fulfilled (filled to full, carried out, brought to realisation). God was pleased for all fullness to dwell in Jesus (Colossians 1:19) and this word has the connotation of a ship full of sailors - feng shui for the body? This means that prophecy based on love gives people the willingness to carry burdens, rather than to try to drag it out of other people to do that instead, with a justification that the other person must have been the lazy one, not to have done that willingly. Prophecy also filters through the community so that people realise that its appeal can be brought to fruition. It is not simply a pie-in-the-sky dream. Animals can behave themselves, for example. As opposed to a show I saw on TV recently that had a man teaching a wolf how to howl, Isaiah 65 says: "'The wolf and the lamb will feed together, and the lion will eat straw like the ox, but dust will be the serpent's food. They will neither harm nor destroy on all my holy mountain,' says the Lord."

God is not evil.

Evil is simply the absence of good. Lust is not something God created. Lust is a sin that we commit when we abuse our sexuality which God gave us to use responsibly.

Be wary. Anything the Devil is trying to sell you will be a scam. Tainted goods. Taste and you will die spiritually.
