Bible Discussion Thread

Nowhere in the entire Book will we see God's temper other than this reference. Known as the GOD OF LOVE, we are introduced here with the idea of God after all capable of HATE. God that He is, we should realize our feeling of HATE is nothing compared to ours. Let us note here what God intends here. He don't just intent to wipe out men in the face of the earth. That extends to all creatures

We do know that Jesus was angered in the temple when he turned over the money changers tables.

Sorry, but you see God's temper and his anger through out the bible.

Are we reading the same chapter? Why would you assume that God stopping evil is through anger? Isn't it good to stop evil and isn't that what most people pray for? If evil people were murdering your family, for example, would you pray for that to be stopped or just conclude that it's wrong to stop the murderers?

God's heart was grieved in verse 6 over how deeply wicked the people were and filled with endless violence- verse 11. God was more likely sad than mad as you claim with no evidence of. It was probably complete anarchy and chaos with people murdering and oppressing each other endlessly. We see signs of culture today gravitating to that and is no doubt the work of the devil enticing people to taste blood and harm others. Our life is temporary on earth. We will all face judgment before God. Blasphemy of the holy spirit is an unforgivable sin and those daring to call God evil are walking that road. God loves you enough to die for you.

GOD IS LOVE and can be no other way and LOVE hates evil. The Flood was an act of Love or we would not have been Born, God knew those who would be His from Eternity He knows our Name. Mankind would have destroyed itself they were burning their Children alive to their gods and other Abonanations, the flood was Merciful. We Hold onto God'sTruth HE IS LOVE we reject Satan's Deception. Blessings -Anne.
