God Uses Bad People
The Bible is meliorate than whatsoever "reality show."
For example, the life of Joseph (Genesis 37-50).
God saw something unique inwards Joseph's faith, as well as He planned to develop, test, refine, as well as utilisation it.
He looked ahead inwards history, saw Joseph's brothers planning to kill him as well as Reuben planning to relieve him. God didn't desire Joseph killed, nor did He desire him saved.
So he used Judah's evil plans to sell Joseph to slave traders to perish Joseph to Arab Republic of Egypt (Genesis 37:12-29).
Next God used an evil adult woman to perish Joseph into prison theatre as well as then he could last inwards the correct house at the correct fourth dimension to fulfill his Ephesians 2:10 purposes (Genesis 39; Genesis 50:20).
God used bad people to alter the class of Joseph's life as well as the class of history.
Now let's apply this to our lives.
Do you lot intend people who deceive, oppress, hate, slander, curse, defame, mislead, accuse, wound, etc. pick out won?
Think again.
If you're seeking God, He has a innovation (Romans 8:28).
