| | Encyclopedia: Wickedness |
 | | Wickedness refers to human sin, describing not just the "wicked" aspect of the "wicked" act, but to describe the state of being wicked; man's own deliberate choice of doing evil over doing good. | | | Sin has been a term most usually used in a religious context, and today describes any lack of conformity to the will of God; especially, any willful disregard for the norms revealed by God is a sin. | | | Also, wickedness can refer to coolness, or to extremety, a colloquialism originating in Boston, MA, such as "Man, that Ferarri is wicked-cool " or " Bill called Jim's mom an idiot and Jim gave him a wicked buttwhooping" |

| | Wickedness - The Woman in the Bushel |
| | The angel told him that this woman was wickedness, and that the bushel she was imprisoned within was being taken to the land of Babylon -- to Shinar -- where a temple was to be built for it, together with a pedestal on which to place it. | | | Imprisoned by God and His angels, wickedness and everything that it infected were carried away by the power of God to this designated and isolated spot to be raised up for judgment. | | | The relationship between these two prophecies shows that Babylon (this secular and pagan world) is the wickedness that God has allowed to be built (under His control) in a dim outpost far removed from His own kingdom. |

| | Wickedness (International Standard Bible Encyclopedia) :: Bible Tools |
| | Wickedness, malignity, evil in thought and purpose is presented by the word poneria: "But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, Why make ye trial of me, ye hypocrites?" (Matthew 22:18). | | | Shades of thought are added by such words as roa', "evil," "badness": "Give them according to their work, and according to the wickedness of their doings" (Psalms 28:4). | | | The prophets were strong in denunciations of all iniquity, perverseness, and in announcing the curse of God which would certainly follow. |

| | Human Sinfulness, Gardiner Spring - Free Online Sermons, Christian Writings, Stories, Letters, Articles & Poems |
| | There is not a single claim of God or of his truth, of his purposes or his government, of his law or his gospel, of what he is, has done, or will perform, toward which the state of their hearts is not just the opposite of what he requires. | | | Many a man, who like the king of Israel, when the prophet disclosed his future wickedness, has exclaimed, "Is your servant a dog, that he should do this thing!" has afterwards, like this self-deluded monarch, practiced the very enormities, from the prospect of which he once shrunk with horror. | | | Listen to the sneers of infidelity, and to the contemptuous merriment of those who are not infidel; observe the profane ribaldry with which men regard the religion of the Son of God and its divine Author; and how convincing the proof that such people are guilty of great wickedness. |

| | A Warning To Professors -- Jonathan Edwards |
| | For he who lives in willful wickedness, and does not enjoy the ordinances of God, is not guilty of so great presumption as he who attends these ordinances, and yet allows himself in wickedness. | | | Their endeavor will not be indeed to know the truth of their case, and to give a true answer to their consciences, but to blind themselves, to persuade and flatter themselves that they do not allow themselves in known sin, whether it be true or not. | | | It shows horrid irreverence and contempt, that they are so bold, that they are not afraid to come into the presence of God in such a manner, and that they will presume to go out of the presence of God, and from an attendance upon holy things, again to their sinful practices. |

| | That spiritual wickedness is transgressing the spiritual nature of the law. | | | It is spiritual wickedness to pretend before the world that we are something that we are not. | | | To humble a self-righteous sinner, he must come to see the spiritual nature of his sin, not the letter of the law, but the spirit of the law. |

| | ARTICLE XII. |
| | As if wickedness could be imputed unto God because, by His wonderful working, He turns the wickednesses of men to an end and a purpose entirely different to those which the wicked themselves designed. | | | If it really seems to you an absurdity to teach that the wicked do the work of God, enter the battle at once with Jeremiah, the prophet of God, whose words are these, "Cursed is he that doeth the work of the Lord negligently, and that keepeth back his sword from blood" (Jer. | | | Now, by the work of the Lord, the prophet evidently and undeniably means hostile slaughters and desolations, which you surely must call wickedness, seeing that they proceed from pure avarice, cruelty and pride. |

| | The Suppression of Truth by Wickedness |
| | And if truth is suppressed by wickedness, then it follows that righteous is a revelation of the truth. | | | As the saying says, 'It is better to light one candle than to curse the darkness.' The more the truth is suppressed by wickedness, the more important it is for us to reveal the truth by our righteous living. | | | The glory of the worship of God is changed into the offering of infants on fiery altars before statues. |

| | We would see wickedness on a pedestal in a temple, loved and worshipped. | | | It is called that only by people who cannot see, as Zechariah clearly saw, that those who resist God, those of the nation of Shinar, are capable of such terrible violence and wickedness that they will place these things on a pedestal. | | | Throughout Scripture, Babylon and the events that took place there serve as a symbol of wickedness in concentrated form. |

| | Universal Salvation! Why did God allow wickedness - or did He? |
| | And if bringing about wickedness was a necessary part of taking everyone up to eternal life with freewill, then God had no choice in bringing about wickedness. | | | Isaiah 14:24 says, "The Lord (YHWH) of hosts has sworn, saying, Surely, as I have thought, so it shall come to pass, And as I have purposed, so it shall stand." Wickedness has a part to play in achieving God's purpose of Universal Salvation. | | | It was part of the procedure that would take everyone up to eternal life with freewill. |

| | Ante-Nicene Fathers, Vol. IV |
| | Thus, then, does the Word of God promise to implant knowledge in those who come to it, by taking away the stony and hard heart, which is wickedness, in order that one may walk in the divine commandments, and keep the divine injunctions. | | | These, then, are they who are said to be "without," undoubtedly by way of contrast with those who are said to be "within," and to hear the word of God with greater clearness. | | | There is next brought before us that declaration uttered by the Saviour in the Gospel: "That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest they should happen to be converted, and their sins be forgiven them." |

| | On wickedness - Jul. 15, 2004 |
| | The Cambridge International Dictionary of English helpfully provides an added definition for the root word of wickedness, which is "wicked": "Wicked can also mean slightly immoral or bad for you, but in an attractive way." It also informs us that "wicked," in American slang, is a synonym for "excellent": it is used to express approval. | | | Note: Sites will open in a new window. | | | Let me make it clear, then, that we are dealing here with wickedness and its curious attractiveness, and not with the word or concept of evil, because hardly anyone would consciously embark on a life of genuine evil, which we may safely consider to be in the realm of the hopelessly dysfunctional and condemnable. |

| | Third, the Textus Receptus is an un-edited text made based on the basis of a handful of late and corrupt manuscripts; it should never have been the acknowledged Bible of any church, and all translations based on it, such as the King James Bible, should cease to be used for worship purposes. | | | This is not to accuse the creators of either the Textus Receptus or the King James Bible of any sort of wickedness; they did the best with what they had. | | | But to ignore the evidence found since is equivalent to saying the earth is flat. |
