Key Scriptures and spiritual guidance on evil
Η Βίβλος αναφέρεται στο κακό σε πολλά σημεία και διδάσκει ότι το κακό προέρχεται από την αποστροφή από το Θεό και την προτίμηση του κακού πάνω στο καλό. Παράλληλα, διδάσκει ότι ο Θεός είναι χρηστός και δίκαιος και αντιμετωπίζει το κακό με δικαιοσύνη και αγάπη, ενώ ενθαρρύνει τους πιστούς να ανατρέπουν το κακό με το καλό.
