Why when the word of God comes to fruition in real life do we feel it to be a manifestation of evil?

The bible in both the new and old testament there are tons of scriptures with the consequences of the sinners being very clear. Most commonly we can see them being depicted as “abominations” “their death is upon them” referring these people to then be “stoned” for their sins.

If a person actually is stoned for their sins then that would mean the Lord had to have contracted killers to do it. He in fact has to come to the people that are to carry out the stoning and tell them these people are sinners and abominations and “their death is upon them” for the people to even know to stone them.

However, when we see this actual event to come into fruition in modern day our intuition always tells us it was really an evil thing that occured. For instance, take an escort in todays society, say she is contacted by a iohn who ends up killing her and when he is interviewed by detectives he says he is a messiah sent by God to bring sinners to the fate that they deserve.

Whenever something like this happens in real life and the killer really believes he was sent by God to brutally murder someone because he is deeming them deserving we believe that person to actually have been sought out by the most evil deceiving spirit who always CLAIMS to be God and through claiming to be the MOST good he is able to deceive someones mind into committing such a heinous act as murder bc they believe they are doing it for the greatest of goods.

If we never believe in real life that the person that believes they were sent by God to kill was actually in contact with the real Holy Spirit, how come we believe in the bible that the people that were abominations were to be stoned to death if the same Holy Spirit had to contact members of the church or assassins basically to carry out that stoning upon the ones who were sinners. If we argue that the old testament new testament then we are basically saying a spirit that is always to be good hadn’t realized in the new testament it committed evil. If we say light is to be without darkness and to be in darkness is to be without the presence of light how can good really commit evil and be good but evil is only evil.
 
Solution
So basically God can commit evil and be good and it just be due to humans lack of understanding but its good. What I am getting at is this is a way to coerce people into committing evil for the greater of good but how can good ever cosign you committing evil and maintain its title of good and the only explanation be you just don’t understand:

Also you didn’t acknowledge the modern day comparison I made so I will repeat it again. If in modern day a sinner is stoned by someone who claims to be a prophet from God why does our intuition tell us an evil spirit deceived that person into thinking they were God but we don’t question the stoning scriptures at all bc of the ranking in authority and whom we believe it to be coming from.

So...
Stephen was stoned in the new testament so the new testament didn’t just come and put an end to stoning. He was stoned for denouncing those who judged him and they called out to Jesus when they did it. So again stoning hasn’t “stopped”
Stephen was stoned because of his defense for his faith in Christ before the Sanhedrin. They were so enraged by the words he spoke to the Jewish people that they took him outside the city of Jerusalem and stoned him to death. Notice he said "Lord, lay not this sin to their charge". And when he had said this, he fell asleep. Acts 7 Stephens speech.

To look back at the Mosaic laws and to ask why God allowed certain things is to make ourselves the judge of God. Only the moral laws out of all the 613 laws reveal the nature and will of God within His greatest commandment of love that all still follow today, Matthew 22:34-40. To say God is evil in His righteous judgements is saying we serve an evil God. I'd be careful going there.

Are any of us that righteous that we can throw the first stone?
Only Jesus could have cast a stone without condemning himself,

Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel? Eze.33:11
