Things that are not of God.

the same as sin. From God’s point of view, evil and sin are the same thing. Even though no one likes to think of themselves as evil, it is a truth we must all come to terms with.

a thing, not a person

Anything which impedes evolutionary development.

Anything that stands in the way of the fulfillment of God's ideal, the three blessings, is evil. Thoughts and actions that create a base for Satan are evil. In other words, when a subject and object give and receive in violation of God's purpose for the creation, evil is produced. Things are neither good nor evil in themselves; the purpose they are used for determines their value.
