Day 213. Did evil exist before the human race embraced it?

Today is day 213 and we are on the section on The Seventh Petition: "But deliver us from evil".

213. Did evil exist before the human race embraced it?

Yes. Satan had already opposed God and chosen evil when he tempted Adam and Eve. (Genesis 3: 1–5; John 8:44)

We will conclude today with The First Collect of Compline found on page 63 in the Book of Common Prayer (2019).
