Isaiah 45:7: I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these [things].
Contradiction with Ecclesiastes 1:9
This verse implies the repetitive cycle of events rather than the creation of new things by God as suggested in Revelation 4:11.

Contradiction with Genesis 6:6-7

Genesis 6:6-7: And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.
Contradiction with Jeremiah 18:7-10
This passage shows God changing His mind about creation based on human actions, which might appear to contrast with the constancy of God's will in Revelation 4:11.
Jeremiah 18:7-10: [At what] instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to pluck up, and to pull down, and to destroy [it];
Contradiction with Lamentations 3:38
Suggests both good and bad come from God's mouth, which might contradict the exclusively good creation mentioned in Revelation 4:11.
Lamentations 3:38: Out of the mouth of the most High proceedeth not evil and good?
Contradiction with Amos 3:6
States that evil in a city comes from God, which may contradict the goodness of creation highlighted in Revelation 4:11.

States that God does not tempt anyone with evil, potentially contradicting the creation of all things, including evil, mentioned in some interpretations of Revelation 4:11.

Although God calls His creation "very good," the later existence of evil and suffering might contradict the goodness of creation in Revelation 4:11.
Genesis 1:31: And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, [it was] very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day. [And the evening...: Heb. And the evening was, and the morning was etc.]
Contradiction with Psalm 51:5
Implies innate human sinfulness at birth, which may contradict the notion of good creation in Revelation 4:11.
Psalm 51:5: Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me. [conceive...: Heb. warm me]
Paradox #1
One could argue that there's a moral conflict in the idea of praising someone simply because they have power or have created things, without questioning the nature or impact of their actions. Praising authority or creation without considering goodness or justice might seem inconsistent with valuing ethical behavior and benevolence.
