KK: "Wickedness" is a term subject to being defined by our Creator Himself and not human interpretation. What does the word "wicked" mean? why do those who choose to identify with unbelievers and the rebellious when it comes to God's Highest Law believe themselves to be morally superior to true followers of Jesus Christ? attacking genuinely good men and women who choose to believe what the prophets and apostles have taught throughout the ages instead of those who claim themselves to be "progressive" .. in reality and truth there is NO NEW THING under ths sun.. "progress is the ideology of the cancer cell" Real liberty has to do with freedom FROM a law of sin and death not a license to defy the Lord Himself and deny His power and authority to judge the lawless.
Alan Archibald: Immediately after saying, "'Wickedness' is a term subject to being defined by our Creator Himself and not human interpretation," you ask "What does the word 'wicked' mean?"
Well, which is it?
Do we leave the definition to God?
Or do we define it ourselves?
Since "we become what we perceive," I think the more we focus on 'wickedness,' the more prone we are to be judgmental - and furthermore, to be judgmental in a damning way.
For my part, I believe God is essentially merciful.

Then there's the assurance that "Love covers a multitude of sins."
K, you don't "feel" like someone who wants sins to be "covered" by Love.
You "feel" like someone who very much wants God to be damningly punitive; a terrorist who tortures -- without surcease ever -- the very people you say he loves. (Did you know that Jews routinely consider "hell" a time-limited "state"? https://www.myjewishlearning.com/article/heaven-and-hell-in-jewish-tradition/)
At minimum, I believe a loving God would let (supposedly) "lost souls" pass out of existence, or enter the kind of oblivion that C.S. Lewis kindly provides the Lord Rhoop after his years on Dark Island.
