Bible Question: I always thought that jelousy was a negative attribute to have. Yet the God of the old testament is just this...? |
Bible Answer: Jealousy is most certainly a bad thing when one is talking about jealousy and humans (you and me). But when one turns to the subject of Jealousy and God, that's a whole different matter. Since He is the Creator and we are the created, He is completely entitled to all the Jealousy He would like to display. He bought us and paid for us with dear Son's blood. Now it's up to us to redeem ourselves and live a christian life and make it to Heaven. But as you've indicated, God is a Jealous God and will NOT tolerate sharing us with the Devil. "We're either for Him or against Him and for the Devil." God's Perfect sense of Justice demands this kind of Jealousy. Hope this helps your understanding and blessings to you. Country Girl |
