    How could an omniscient , omnipotent god of love create sin ?

    First of all , I want to wish merry christmas to everyone , with joy , health and love ! Τhen how can the initial state of humans be justified . When Adam and Eve where close to god without evil existing . It seems a little bit odd to me for a god to save his creations from something he made...

    Christians: Concerning the 2 most important commands

    How could an omniscient , omnipotent god of love create sin ?
