The Reasons why "Just Following Jesus" Doesn't work
RE: The Reasons why "Just Following Jesus" Doesn't work
I will respectfully dare to say that you are an enemy of God. I didn't say anything about you being angry at God. People war against a lot of things but they are not necessarily angry about it. People wage war against other people just to grab what the other has. You defame God and you seek to steal His glory in order to magnify man. Your rejection of Him is an act of war.
 
You are right, a good father doesn't kill his children or torture them for disobedience. God does not torture His children. That is not what I was saying and if I may have lead you to that conclusion I apologize. God's wrath comes against those who suppress the truth about who He is with there ungodliness and wickedness. He does discipline His children so that we might grow more into His likeness, but every human isn't God's child. Some are the children of the devil and speak like he does.
 
From  your conclusion I don't think you understand Genesis at all. You may be familiar with the story but your conclusion is erroneous. You insert your own assumptions and ideas about God that would favor you view of Him. Again you have created a false god who temps his people, in reality God created mankind to be sinless. He, being the originator of relationships, knew how one should be formed. He doesn't want robots but people who truly want Him, not his stuff.  
 
Your link between El the storm god and the true and actual God is thin. Just because people use the name El that doesn't mean they worship the same God. In Egypt people use the name Allah to speak of God. In Japan they use the name Kami Sama 神様 to speak of God. El the storm god of Canaan shares few attributes with God. Also the Bible does say that the Israelites went after and worshipped false gods in many parts of the bible. I believe I spoke of that a few days ago. If you are confident in your story enough to stake your soul on it then provide documentation of idea of God coming from this storm god. Also provide documentation that shows alterations of the text biblical text. Please, not your own words, but straightforward references, that I will can look into.
