If God created everything, how is it that God didn’t create evil?
Summary
This sermon explores the nature of evil, drawing heavily on Augustine's theological insights and biblical examples like light and darkness from Genesis. It argues that evil is not a created entity but a perversion or lack of being, contrasted with God's substantial glory, represented by the Hebrew words "kavod" and "hevel." The practical takeaway is that turning to evil leads to emptiness and unmaking, highlighting the insubstantiality of sin compared to the fullness found in God.
