Noone has to go looking for evil.
It's always present in some form,and being able to recognize it isn't
specifically Christian.Going looking for evil isn't what the Bible tells us
to do.It tells us to shun evil and it tells us to flee fron evil. It's not
possible to flee from and hunt for at the same time.
Evil can be found in many forms and isn't simply or specifically a contradictory
religious belief. Christians are capable of doing evil.Evil is also expecting
others to say or do something evil.Focusing on anything that does not glorify God
can be evil.Judging another human can be evil.Lust can be evil.Getting enjoyment
out of looking at scantily clad women, whether it is real or animated can be evil.
We do not have to look for evil to be able to recognize it.If we do then we are
not focusing on God, which in itself can be construed as evil by others.We cannot look for
evil in a person ans show brotherly love at the same time.The Bible does not tell us
to show brotherly love when it's convenient for us.It does tell us to be of sound mind
and body.When we focus on the salvation or errors of others,
we are not showing a sound mind.
It seems to me that if we are to convince others they are doing evil,start with
the Christians.A Christian who does evil is more in need of delieverance than the
sinner.They are not cold and no longer hot.They have become lukewarm.When we become
more concerned about what others are doing wrong thatn what we are doing right,
we become luke warm.We can't be in the Spirit and focused on the sins of others
at the same time.We can't worship God unless we're in the Spirit.Whatever we do
without being in the spirit is not glorifying God.It's glorifying our own personal
need.Looking for evil in others is not working for God, it's trying to justify our
own shortcomings by making others look worse than us.That isn't being of sound mind.
That's not being Spiritual and the Bible is clear on how evil it is.Searching for
evil so that we can recognize it as evil is a cop out.It's false teaching has little
to do with doing God's work.Evil is always present.We recognize evil by reading the
Bible not by inviting evil show itself.When we look for evil we are inviting it
into mour lives.We should let evil stay where it's at and if it does show up,
shun it and flee from it.The Bible tells us to do that.
