How Do We Know Who To Trust? (Part 2)

Evil is perverted good. This is why we can rationalize our evil. This is justification of evil intention. Even satan just wanted to be like God, and wanted the same for Eve. The key word in the last sentence is “just.” It assumes that “all we want” is…fill in the blank. "I just want to be sexually fulfilled/happy/etc." We imply that God is holding out on something He could easily give or fulfill. So we justify evil because in it is a perverted good. How do we avoid this? How can we be trustworthy? How do we stop rationalizing sin?
