Christians if Yahweh is so perfect and makes no mistakes then why?

Did he feel that he made a mistake in creating the earth and everything on it?

    He didn't feel he made a mistake, he was pained because of the sins that man was committing and that he would destroy them for their wickedness. But that is not the end of the story.

    John 5

    25 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.

    1 Peter 3

    18 For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit:

    19 By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison;

    20 Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water.

    1 Peter 4

    6 For for this cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.

    He didn't feel he made a mistake, he made the world in complete perfection from the very beginnning but it was man's decision to sin and disobey God and as time went on the sin got worse- but God didn't make it like that, it was man's actions - God didn't create the imperfection in this world man did!!! It broke his heart to see the world he had created fall so deep into sin and turn so evil! Let my give you an example - a mummy has made this beautiful pot and leaves it sitting on the kitchen table. Her 4yr old child comes in and has just been eating a bit of chocolate fudge cake and with his grubby little hands he picks up the pot. It becomes all dirty and chocolate becomes smeared over the pot and before he knows it he's dropped it and its smashed all over the floor!! Mummy comes in and sees her pot, its all dirty and broken, it was once perfeect but now its ruined but she didn't make it, with that intention it was her sons actions that caused the pot to become ruined!!! But the Mummy doesn't think to herself, "I made a mistake in making this pot I never should have made it" instead shes sad and disappointed that its ruined but she'll just remake it and forgive her son!!!!!

    @a black man's holy Grail

    Lucifer was created as an angel originally and he praised God and worshiped him but then he became jealous of God's perfection and he wanted to be better than him so he turned against God to try and be more powerful than him!! So its like what I was saying above, it was Lucifer's choice to turn evil not Gods!!

    God has given us the gift of free will, he doesn't make us with the intention of us disobeying him and sinning but its our choice to disobey him!! But God already knows that we aren't going to always obey him and follow him and he knows that we'll break his heart but yet he still made us with the intention that we will all follow and love him someday!!

    How can you claim to be omniscient, but then get angry once your people sin? It doesn't add up. Apologists have a field day.

    Also, why would he create Lucifer, why would he knowingly create evil?
