Evil
The words translated into the English word evil are numerous.
What is evil?
In John 5:29 Jesus states clearly that "they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation."
Jesus also makes it clear that "many" will think they know Jesus but will be sent away because they are workers of iniquity even though they think they are believers and followed of Christ.
The warnings are repeated over and over again that many people may think they know the truth, love God, and even love one another but actually they are so deceived[1] that they believe a lie.[2]
It is important that we know what Jesus means by words like evil and iniquity.7
If you do evil according to John 3:20 you hate the light and are not born again. [3]
The Greek words "pas gar ho phaula[4] prassōn[5]" (πᾶς γὰρ ὁ φαῦλα πράσσων) we see in the translation as "For every one that doeth evil" which is literally "Everyone for evil practicing". This seems to say that you actually do not have to do evil but you just have to be fore the practices that would be considered evil. There are long lists of such practices given to us by Paul and the Apostles as well as the prophets.
The Greek word phaula[4] does mean evil but only appears four times[6] in the Bible.
The more common Greek term poneros[7] appears 76 timed and normally translated evil but is defined as "full of labors" or a bad condition.
The Greek term kakos'[8] is also translated evil more than 40 times, with kakopoios[9], an adjetive is translated evildoer 4 times and malefactor once while the term kakourgos[10] is also translated "malefactor" 3 times and "evil doer" once. The verb kakopoieo[11] is translated "do evil" or "evil doing".
Of course there are the verbs kakoo[12] to oppress or inflict harm, or kakoucheo[13] to treat ill, oppress, plague.
There are numerous compound words like kakoetheia[14] bad character, depravity of heart and life, kakologeo[15] speak evil, kakopatheia[16] the suffering of evil, and kakopatheo[17] to suffer (endure) evils.
If you are workers of iniquity you are rejected by God no matter what you say you believe, This is no different than the context concerning being Born again.
Colossians 3:5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil[8] concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry: 6 For which things’ sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience: 7 In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.
