In fact, he is the person of the Trinity who is coming back at the end to judge the world. The bible says that God is full of wrath; and that wrath will be poured out against evil. Of course when evil is destroyed forever, we'll all be restored to humanity's original state before sin, and will live with him in peace. We take our hits for sinning but, because of God's love for us we will live in peace for eternity.(December 14, 2015 at 6:10 pm)Chad32 Wrote: Yeah there are parts in the new testament where Jesus acts a lot nicer than his dad did in the old testament. then there are parts where he acts as bad or worse.

The Jesus character when you consider he is also God in human form, means you cannot separate him from the OT or end times God......... The middle of the book where he is less of a dick, is just like when a spouse beats the shit out of their partner, then buys them flowers and tells them they are sorry, then goes right back to beating the shit out of them again.
Just the demand to leave your family and friends and co workers if they don't follow Jesus as he commands in in the NT is a form of mental abuse and blackmail. Nobody has the right to tell me who to associate with. That demand alone takes away my own autonomy and decision making.
