Evil exists because choice must — and eternity depends on what we choose.

Most people, at some point, wrestle with the big questions:

Why is the world so broken?
Why do we suffer?
Why is there evil, death, and injustice?
If there’s a God, why doesn’t He stop it?

What if this life is a necessity — the setup for something greater?

The Christian worldview doesn’t just offer answers — it tells a story. A story that began before you were born and continues long after you die. A story that explains where we came from, why things are the way they are, and what’s coming next. Most importantly, it tells you what your role is in all of it.

🔚 The End Goal Changes Everything

To understand the Bible — and the God behind it — let’s start at the end.

The Bible doesn’t end with clouds and harps. It ends with a new earth — a restored creation, free from death, decay, and corruption. A perfected world filled with perfected people who still have free will — but who never sin.

That’s God’s goal:
A world of people who live forever with Him — freely, lovingly, righteously — with no trace of evil. But getting there requires a very specific path.

Because to create beings with true freedom who would never choose evil, God had to give them the opportunity to choose.

You can’t force love. You can’t program virtue.
Forced righteousness isn’t righteousness at all.
Robots don’t love. Children do. Free people do.

But here’s the danger of real freedom:
It allows for rebellion. For evil. For pain.
One selfish act can spark a chain reaction of suffering. One hurt person hurts another.

🏗️ Why We Can’t Build Utopia

Let’s say tomorrow, every world leader comes together and agrees:

This has gone on long enough.

All debt is canceled. Healthcare is free. All prisoners are released. Everyone gets a clean slate. We pool our resources to build a perfect world. No more crime. No more hate. No more poverty. Everyone agrees — we’re starting over.

Now go scroll social media. Watch five minutes of reality TV. Read today’s headlines. Those people will get the same news tomorrow. How long does that utopia last?

How long before someone lies, steals, kills, cheats, or takes advantage of this new world?

The system isn’t the problem. We are.
Not the rich or the poor — all of us.
From the first humans to us now in 2025 — look at what we’ve done.
The world isn’t broken because we lack money, resources or technology.
It’s broken because of the human condition.

We must see and understand this. No matter how ideal the society, if people enter unchanged, perfection won’t last — we’ll bring our flaws with us and unravel it from within.

If you’re not willing to look inwardly, to turn from your sins and admit that you need to be better, well, then enjoy this world. It is for you.

But for those of us that trust in Jesus, God’s plan is exactly what we strive for. What we long for but can never achieve on our own. We prove that to ourselves every day. That we need a savior because we cannot trust anyone else here to fulfill that role. There is no king, no president no chief on earth that we can put our complete trust in for our well being and what’s best for us all.

God’s plan is a new world, filled with people who have trusted him to have been transformed from the inside out — so they’ll actually have the ability to live in a society at that level of perfection.

And to trust Him is to walk in His ways.

🌱 This Life Is Where We’re Shaped

God isn’t just saving people from something (our sin, which leads to destruction) — He’s preparing us for something.

This life is full of trials, not to punish you, but to reveal who you are becoming. He’s building a future society of free people — who will never again choose evil. And to know who belongs there, He lets each person walk their path.

Will you cling to pride, lust, and greed — or lay them down?
Will you trust your own way — or follow your Creator?
Will you chase pleasure — or pursue truth?

Everyone sins. That’s not the real question.
The real question is: Do you want to be changed?
Do you want to be made new?

🕊️ Heaven Is For Those Who Want It

Too many people think hell is just a place God sends “bad people” who broke his Holy rules. But the truth is — we’ve all sinned. We’ve all broken the rules.

That’s not the dividing line.

The question is: Are you someone who could live in a world without sin? Do you even want to?

Because in God’s world:

• No lies are ever told.
• No selfishness sneaks in.
• No hate, no lust, no violence — not even in secret.
• Nothing impure exists — in action, word, or thought.

Heaven is a real life with God.

If you hate Him now — would you want to be with Him forever?

Hell, then, isn’t just punishment — it’s the final destination of those who refused to be remade. The destination for those who would never let that place be perfect. It is eternal separation from the One who is the life, thus, hell would be the death of your soul.
