According to Catholic teaching: The distinction between an evil age and evil world is an important one. Paul doesn't say the world is evil because it isn't. God made the world, and it is good. As the church tells us in the Catechism, "Because creation comes forth from God's goodness, it shares in that goodness". There is evil in the world, and the world suffers from the punishment for sins, just as people do; (see Romans 1:18-32) but we should maintain that the world itself is good. The fact that Jesus became a man to deliver us from evil actually confirms that human life in this world is a good thing, worthy of his sacrifice.
