The Bible

Questions have been aswered, just some seem to not except the answers to the questions so they continue to repeat them over and over.

God hates sin that much, if you're talking about the OT, when God did kill people, Jesus died for our sins and Grace came in, you don't see that happening now

What does Jesus dieing have to do with God killing people? Where is that connection!? God made 10 commandments, and in the next few hundred years, he broke them himself on more than one occasion! I don't see how that makes him perfect.

Most people really DO NOT understand how God's Commandments and Laws develops as time goes by. The 10 commandments was given to the early people of God which is the Israel... These laws were continued to be violated by the same people... except for the few who remained steadfast and faithful to God's laws... and later on died.

To save these people from continuing to sin, God sent Himself His messengers and prophets to bring the Israel back to its faithfulness and glorious service to God... but nothing happened. People continued to sin from the sight of God.

The Israel was cursed. It was no longer the people of God.

Because God still loves the world and the generations of His people, He sent Jesus Christ to fulfill God's "will". Christ didn't come to broke the laws of God but to fulfill.

In other cases, some commandments were NOT already applicable to Christ's time... because in Christ's time, which is the Christian era... it is God's "will" which matters.

Resting in Sabbath and some others were not enforced during the Christian era.

Christ even said that the most important in God's commandments is for the man to love God with all his mind, his soul, and his heart... and the other is to love his mother and his father. But it doesn't necessarily mean to disregard the rest of God's commandments.

There were indeed new commandments which Christ declared. He even created a "new creation" for the sake of God's "will".

After all it is God's "will" to His people that matters up to this time. 🙂

That doesn't change the fact that God sinned by breaking his own laws, before Jesus was ever born.

Breaking His own laws? What law/s did He break anyway? 🙄 Inform me, if happen I didn't know.

"Thou shalt not kill"

God punished sinners by KILLING the first born children of each of them. He killed innocent children to punish adults. Children that had nothing to do with the crimes of their parents.

In what way did He "killed" and "punish" those people if I may ask?

A plague of somesort, I think.

So when does it happen?

Eh, I don't really recall. It happens in one of the bible stories. I think some Egyptians did something, and then god made locuses attack, then took away light, then killed the first born child of all the sinners. Or something to that extent.

History?

Oh, so it's in the Bible?

Yep.

Do you believe in it?

Nope, don't believe the Bible. I feel I've made this VERY clear over the course of this thread.

So God didn't kill anyone.

According to the Bible, he did. If you believe the bible, then you must believe this as well. And if that's the case then god did indeed break one of his own laws. It's twice as bad because he killed innocent children that had nothing to do with the sins of their parents.

But you didn't believe in the Bible.

I know I don't. But I also don't believe in God.
