    Heard of "The Gospel"? Want to know more?

    There is salvation in no other, for there is not another name under heaven having been given among men, by which it behooves us to be saved."

Here's another kind of evil.
Self betrayal which leads to betrayal of others, who suffer.
A serial killer had his girlfriend assisting him. She would lure young girls from a mall and take them to her boyfriend's car.
"Wanna come and try some free weed?" She said first to the teenage girls. Then he would kidnap , rape and kill them.
Later the woman said she was afraid of her boyfriend and was eager to please him as well.
I can understand her predicament a little, but that's no excuse. She was the key in luring those girls to their deaths.
Here is the lesson for us. Don't be intimidated into pleasing someone who has an evil agenda. Be ready to die if necessary. Because if you don't stand up to them, others will suffer. And you have betrayed yourself and your own values. You will suffer unimaginable guilt.
Avoid these people altogether might be a good idea too.
 
Think you need to clarify with an example.

OK.

Within the Christian world...take the social gospel. It has to do with doing good for your fellowman. Yet it will dilute the real Gospel of Jesus Christ. Christ just becomes a do-gooder and example we should follow. And because most all worldly religions will approve and say much of the same, then there is an acceptance of them also. And all give their approval of how good this is. But it isn't. Evil is behind it. It takes away from the truth about Christ and real state of sinful man.

Within the world....take the attitude of the world against Bible believing Christians. These Christians are declared as evil. Fundamentalist's. Extremist's. Radicals. Hateful. And the world receives the applause of being good for recognizing these evil people. And the so called social churches applaud the world in this also. This is evil presenting itself as good, and receiving the praise of men as good.

It is the most dangerous of all. In my opinion.

Whenever I used to fish with limb lines on the river I would always run into the cotton mouth snake. Sometimes I would be in the dense brush with the snake before I saw it and he could be right next to me. You could feel the blood leave your face. Part of that fear is induced, I believe, in knowing he was right there and I didn't see him and here Ive been going about my business of setting the line and hook and he was there all along.

Point being, men call evil good at times. They truly don't see it for what it really is.

Do you simply mean progressive or liberal Christians who have a certain view of how the Gospel should be interpreted?
Their view is evil because it dilutes "the truth" as you see it. And they demonise conservative Christians like yourself?
I think I have some sympathy for your view. Because I suspect liberal Christians at their worst promote a vague relativist view of truth where there is no absolute truth whatsoever. So they charm unsuspecting people who prefer an easygoing approach rather than face the real challenges of the gospel message. Feelgood Christianity.

I believe I explained it pretty clearly. One example from within the Christian world. And one example from the world concerning Bible believing Christians.

A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,
An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,
A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.
Proverbs 6:16-19.
