#evil #problemofevil #geisler **Evil does not exist in itself but is a privation in a good thing which God made**. God is in sovereign control of the universe, including evil, and he will bring good out of evil. Both good and evil angels exist. The evil angels were not created that way; they became that way by a rebellious choice of their own will. They will eventually be punished and banished from the presence of God, as will evil men. Only the good angels and redeemed persons will be the blessed vision of God and live in eternal bliss. Book: Western Philosophy Author: Norman Geisler
