you literally can't have anything better

What about the fact that God acts like two different characters in the Old and New Testament?

I honestly am searching for answers

new covenant

Ok, lemme Google that and search for a big

*bit

as in

Jesus brought us the new covenant

honestly tho if you insist on being skeptical about it you'll never find God, because you need faith

no "proof" will ever be good enough

He's trying to ask an honest question so let's not be hard on the guy

From my denominational perspective the Church is older than some parts of the Bible anyway

Here is my argument to you @Deleted User

Nothing in existence is self created. You cannot be your own father

Therefore everything that exists, is created, by something that logically must have existed prior.

So God created the Universe. That I can agree and believe

That puts us in an infinitely backwards timeline with no beginning

But everything has a beginning

Cross references of the Bible. https://philosophadam.wordpress.com/2018/05/16/the-first-hyperlinked-text-the-bible-and-its-63779-cross-references/

So, the only logical explanation for how anything can exist, is that some being must have existed before everything else

This doesn't tell you WHICH god of course

And the only way this can work is to accept that if a being can create all existence, then that being must be above any laws of nature, time, physics, etc and powerful far beyond human understanding

That is the only way the universe can exist. It cannot create itself.

As far as NT vs OT... remember the NT covers a very short time period.

The OT covers literally thousands of years of history

If God gets really pissed off say once every hundred years...then you might see his anger 10, 15, 20 times or more in the OT, but never in the NT

I’d count Jesus flipping tables and whipping people as God getting angry.

Yeah fair enough

But I was thinking of destruction of entire countries

Ah. Right.

And considering the redpill prescription you have Sagif, one pill 3x a day, then God ordering the mass slaughter of sand nigga pagans should not bother you anyway

I'm not one to second-guess the Man but maybe we should have done it one more time

Or maybe we were supposed to. But people don't listen

I believe I remember God commanding the Hebes to kill some people and destroy some shit and they spared a few and it didn't end well for them

🤷🏼‍♂️ I think we keep doing what the Hebrews did... told to conquer and remove the heathens, but instead we decide to kill a few then invite the survivors in our homes and breed with them.

Yup

Like in Joshua I think it is.

God wanted the Jews to have their own distinct and separate culture. Set them apart from the rest. Hence the 617 Mosaic Laws. And every time they bring in a pagan, it watered down their culture just a little bit

A drop of water in the Kool Aid

Yeah exactly.

You start with some sweet nigga red Kool Aid
