MZTV 260 - 09/18/2019: God Does Not Sin by Causing People to Sin

God is responsible for everything that exists. Sin exists. Therefore, God is responsible for sin. Does this make God a sinner? It does not. Sin means "to miss the mark." God did not miss the mark by bringing sin into His universe; sin serves an important purpose in the revelation of salvation. The Christian view, that sin entered the universe surreptitiously, apart from God's original intention, is the teaching that, ironically enough, makes God a sinner. In attempting to relieve God of responsibility for sin, it is the Christians who ironically turn Him into a sinner.
