Good and Evil?

There is a battle between God and Satan and it is taking place among men.

But the battle is not between “good and evil” so to speak, but as to whether God will keep his promise to mankind that they will rule the world. Satan is proving again and again that humanity isn’t worthy, and God is proving that, although weak, humanity will eventually prove worthy. Thus, when Jesus, the one worthy human, came, Satan had to kill him, which proved Satan’s unworthiness, not Jesus’. In the eyes of humanity a crucified Lord is shameful, but in the eyes of God’s wisdom, it is beautiful, even perfect.
