And that’s why God is so good because it was sin that separated us from God, But God, he made a way out of no way that we might be able to inherit eternal life.  He loved us so much that He gave His only begotten Son (John 3:16).  If it had not been for Jesus on our side, where would we be.  God is good, and everything that he created is good, but remember, we are all free moral agents who have a choice to decide good or bad and we must be held accountable for our decisions.      Yes, even Lucifer was good when created, however, he chose to desire to be number one and was removed from amongst the heavenly kingdom.  We can choose life or death, but God coerces us to “Choose Life”.
