You can not find the word benevolent used to describe God any where in the Bible. I'm not saying God was not benevolent, benevolence is a part of love. However God is not referred to as omnilove, why, because He says there are things He hates ie. sin. If God was omnibenevolent why do you limit Him to only two of what He is, could it be you have to take something away from Him to satisfy your disbelief. To me that's being dishonest. But just to satisfy you I pick A+B the scriptures point to it.
Well, its just your subjective interpretation of the bible that says that god is not omni-benevolent. Other Christians read the bible and seem to interpret omnibenevolence just fine.
Why don't you do as I did and find out who is correct, read it. Then you're no different than any other nonbeliever, you'll accept anything that supports your hate for Christianity, it doesn't matter to you where the truth is. When young earth Creationist don't agree with your science you insist they read about it and don't say you don't many web sites have been referred to for us to read.

Our Lord Yahweh isn't omnipotent or omnipresent either, if you bothered to read the passages of scripture I quoted earlier. It's only in the NT that he gets to be omnipotent, and even these parts are more hyperbolic words of praise than descriptions of Yahweh's actions. Yahweh demonstrates his limitations in the OT.
The only alternative is to think that Yahweh leveled up as a deity and achieved the "omnipotence" class ability upon reaching 20th level.
Dumb ass phony Christian!
You should read the Genesis account, God also named every star and only an omniscient, omnipotent and omnipresent God could create an entire universe.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
