Then there's the truth .... God DOES hate (Gospel, bless, mission)

Further evidence man creates god in his own image.

• showed mercy to A&E, promised them a Savior
• showed mercy to Israel when they rejected him continually
• spared Nineveh when they repented
• sent prophet after prophet to call Israel to repentance despite them being repeatedly killed
• had prophets write his word down
• kept the promise of Savior intact
• gave me Jesus' perfection \ Jesus' life of keeping all the law and the right to be declared righteous

>> and <<

• cursed creation \ put enmity between people and between the children of God and children of Satan
• regretted that he created mankind & send a flood to destroy all
• sent the angle of death to kill all the firstborn of Egypt
  • (and those who didn't have the blood of the lamb on their door posts)
• destroyed all the inhabitants found in evil cities
• promised that evil will not go unpunished ...
• and made Jesus out to be the worst despicable sinner that will ever walk the face of the earth

That is who God is.

So there is a 4th option..... Or 4) God is Jekyll and Hyde by nature.

Does God feel both happiness and sadness? Of course. So why do some people think that agape love and intense dislike cannot exist in the same perfect being?

Because hate is a human psychological WEAKNESS of our ego. God has no such WEAKNESSES. Why do I even try????

Try living with someone who hates you.

Says who? God has told me the He indeed hates, so where does your authority come from?

Are you really defending a weak God???Just because our ignorant primitive ancestors had no conception of the source of our human psychological weaknesses and thought God must have them also . . . is no reason to accept such ignorance.

A source higher than yours. For love is the greatest.
