WEEKEND RANTS #1 - THE TWO GOD THEORY

Malachi 3:6 (TLB)
“For I am the LordI DO NOT CHANGE. That is why you are not already utterly destroyed, for my mercy endures forever.


Who came up with this “Old Testament God” versus “New Testament God” balderdash? Who is making you think the God you are worshipping today has transitioned or changed in some way to meet your standard or come to your “level” as some will put it? Who is filling your head with such messages? Why are you believing that a mere human whose intellectual prowess is as minute as a grain of sand at the seashore or as a droplet of water in an ocean if it should ever be compared to that of God?

There has been, there is and forever will be one God in the universe. He is the Creator of the Heavens and the earth. He alone owns the intellectual property rights to every single thing we see, feel, smell, hear, and taste. He alone is the great provider. He alone is the great protector. He alone is the great revelator. He alone is the great warrior. He alone is the great judge. He alone is the truth, mercy, grace, wisdom, etc. He alone is who He says He is. He alone is God.

God has not changed and God will never change. The same God who opened the mouth of the earth to swallow offenders is the same God who gave His only Son as a sin offering for sinners to be made right with Him. He is the same God who has created hell for those who will not accept His Son and live as He has stated. And He is also the same God who has created heaven for those who would accept His Son and live to please Him.

The same “Old testament God” who many have tagged as wicked and heartless because of certain bible stories handpicked to affirm some bias notion is the same “New Testament God” they have tagged as loving, caring, or kind.
But, if you think the “Old Testament God” was not loving, caring or kind, please consider only the book of Hosea and let’s have a conversation.

GOD WILL NEVER CHANGE. HE IS THE SAME YESTERDAY, TODAY AND FOREVER.

Remain in the blessings of the Lord as you remain in Christ.

PICTURE THIS: The same God who drove His Creation from the Garden of Eden for disobeying a direct order was the same God kind enough to clothe them before their departure. 
Throughout the old testament, this “Old Testament God” who has been tagged as wicked and heartless is the same God who has been screaming for His Creation to return to the same Eden, He drove them from. Which wicked and heartless being would ever do that?
