yours?
So, when god orders genocide, it is morally acceptable solely because god orders it?
God never ordered genocide...
Ezekiel 22:28
King James Version (KJV)
28 And her prophets have daubed them with untempered morter, seeing vanity, and divining lies unto them, saying, Thus saith the Lord God, when the Lord hath not spoken.

since God has commanded Christian are to be as Christ, as a lamb led to slaughter and His Word is complete, what are you getting at?
a bunch of phony ifs?
"This gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come.

What we're getting at is that your God is a sadistic psycho and you are commanded to do what he tells you. Many people, to this day, believe that God commands them to do violence, often times quite horrible.
It happens all the time.
Can you prove that it is not God telling these people to murder their children? It's not inconsistent with the Bible, as God loves murdering children, and telling people to do so.

what are you ranting about?
Yahweh's commands to the Jew?
Is a thing good solely because god says it is good?
Yes! Holy crap Yes! Why? Because in the end it is God who judges all of us and it is to his standard that all will be judged. So what does it matter what anyone else thinks if literally Heaven and Hell resides on what God thinks to be good?

there are no commands coming from the Bible God for His children to kill anyone

That's proof? All I see two conflicting statements from the same text.

If your answer is "because he is more powerful than I am", that doesn't mean he's good. It just means he's powerful.

Nice. Since you have no proof that God ordered genocide, adjust your statement.
