Day 212. Is God responsible for evil? (2024)

Today is day 212 and we are on the section on The Seventh Petition: "But deliver us from evil". 212. Is God responsible for evil? No. The sinful choices of his creatures do not implicate God in evil in any way. (Deuteronomy 30:15–19; Romans 7:7–25; James 1:13–15) We will conclude today with Proper 6 found on page 616 in the Book of Common Prayer (2019).
