Bible Note: First, Christ is God; Christ suffered; therefore, God suffered. "He (God) now has a policy to express human emotions as a means to communicate with us." I never heard of this policy. Anthropopathy is defined by Webster as "The affections of man, or the application of human passions to the Supreme Being." 1 John 4.19 says, "We love Him because He first loved us." It does not say "He loves us because we first applied human passions to Him." Also, "God is never angry"? Do you read the bible? If not, please go to Proverbs 9:10: "The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom..." "Fear" in Hebrew means exactly that, fear. Why should anyone fear a God who never gets angry? Or maybe He only feigns anger for our benefit. If so, was God lying all those OT times He claimed to be angry? The God you describe is too liberal for the bible. Colin |
