Did God know that the devil would create evil?
Yes.
Evil is that which does not elevate god as he should be
God made the being which made evil.
Thus, humanity would have turned to evil by turning away in shame and disobediance to god
Why would a loving God make a being which creates evil?
Would a loving god creating a reality where choice is not possible
Mros you realize they didn't have th evidence that contradicts the words in the bible
Yes.
>Implying the Bible contradicts
Really?
How loving to have no choice at all
Without free will man cannot be good
Love has nothing to do with choice.
And god has chosen in his divine forbearance to use the ill choice of the devil for good
A loving God will give man the choice to love him.
and triump over him through the person of Christ
Or to reject him
The literal incarnation of god in human form to conquer satan and sin forever
Why does love require choice?
If I gave you no choice on whether or not to enter into a marriage
If you are unable to reject something can you really say that you love it?
Would that be loving
Yes. I love my mother. No less because I dud not choose it.
Also your looking at this wrong
*you're
Chopin you could still choose to hate your mother.
Love is a state of being. It does not need choice to arrive at.
Assuming choice is a real thing and not just a sensation.
What if the person you're marrying was the one who forced it would it be love in their eyes?
A state of being often is preceded by a choice leading up to that point
Except you're not forced to love God. The proof? The fact that you can reject him.
Often but not necessary.

In the cases where it isn't, it simply is
God not you
like natural phenemmenon
Love does not allow evil.
Love is doing what is best for someone
Actually it does
