BLOODTHIRSTY? I THINK NOT!

There is an unfortunate opinion that ravages many a soul: the opinion that the God of the OT is bloodthirsty and the God of the NT is warm and fuzzy. If you are of this opinion, you have some reading and thinking to do.
  • First, read these 196 OT verses citing "steadfast love" to get some perspective on the alleged "bloodthirsty" God of the OT.
  • Second, read Revelation in one sitting to get some perspective on the alleged "warm and fuzzy" God of the NT.
  • Third, chew on that for as long as it takes.
God has always been and will always be gracious.
God has always been and will always be just.
He has never been and will never be just one or the other.
