End of Evil?

After the last post I decided to go back and look over some of the other handouts he gave us, remembering that I had a similar spurt of writing at another time. In class we were talking about deconstuctionism, whichdoes not look to resolve conflicts or derive true meaning in a text, it simply points out inconcistencies and how the text unravels itself. Here is what I found:

"Evil won't be done away with because God destroys evil with evil, inflicting pain and suffering upon those who do not submit to His will.
- However, one must consider that if God truly is the Creator of this world, He not only has the right to exert authority over us, but also the authority to determine what is right and wrong.
- Sin is defined as an act of disobedience to God. Therefore evil must be defined as any force acting in opposition to the will of God. If this is the case, God truly cannot sin, because He cannot act contrary to His own will. In this way, His actions in Revelation are not evil, they are a judgment against those who do not/did not follow the rules He set out for us to live by. Christians are exempted from most of this judgment because we have chosen to accept the gift of salvation that God gave to all who were willing to accept it.
- Hell is defined as complete separation from God. I don't believe there is any fire involved, just the pain and suffering that comes with being totally and utterly alone. When God condemns all unbelievers to Hell, He is essentially giving them what they want in that to them He will no longer exist; they can no longer know Him."

Once again, I think there is a bit of a lack of transition between my thoughts, but at least they are separated by bullet points, right? And the conclusion I have come to here is that God cannot sin, nor is He evil. Christians are not judged as harshly as non-Christians because we chose to at least try to follow God. And when non-Christians go to Hell, they suffer from complete and utter loneliness, there is nothing worse than being alone, and no pain greater. Fire is simply used to elaborate the fact that its a constant, searing pain.

There will be an end to evil, as we see in God's act of destroying it which I touched on a little bit in my previous post. Also, I have decided that short posts are useless in this blog, so don't expect to see any more...
