philosophical problem

God uses sin of people to correct other humans ?
Is not it true that God used violence (which is sin) of peoples around Israel to cause problems to Israel (he wanted to correct Israel) ?
what do you think ?

I would say that God does cause *pain *to his creation in order to get them to grow, but it is all for the creature’s best interest, so this can’t properly be called evil. Evil is a moral action that does not have the other’s best interest at heart.
