[Forest Keeper]

Then He must, "by necessity," be pure evil as well? According to you, He is just pure -- everything, the good and the bad. And according to you, the Almighty God is defined and limited by "necessity." That's not Christianity.

No, what we call "evil" is not in God's nature so He is not also pure evil. I did not say that God was everything, I said that God is what the Bible says He is. Evil and wrath are not the same thing. When God does wrath he does it for a righteous purpose, making it good. If God did evil himself he would be acting against His own nature, an impossibility.

In fact, it was you who limited God to love. The only way I used "necessity" was to show that God must be greater than your limit.

[Kolokotronis]

"I did not say that God was everything...." Is He "anything"? The Cappadocian Fathers were fond of saying "I believe in God; God does not "exist"."

God is "O WN".
