God exists.
The core of His being is pure love.
He created our world.
He created us.
He desires to love us and give us everything.
He wants us to love him back.
He gave us freewill so we could love Him by our own choice.
We used that freedom to turn away from God.
He had a plan to allow those who wanted Him to have a way.
Every person who ends up with God in the end,
will be with Him because he choose to be.
All others will have whatever is left over when God completely withdraws Himself from them.
Happily ever after.
The end

The message you may squeeze out from all the nonsense and rubbish could be good, I guess.
But then you would have to get to it, and most of the hard questions and contradictions have to be explained to you by a theologian or your cult church leader. Anyone who says that is the word of God must think God is awfully small. I don't know if you are reading and understanding the same thing I am, but to me it is all nonsense, has nothing to do with the world of today--if it does at all it is ever so vaguely, most of it doesn't apply, and much of it is offensive! What you say isn't from the same book I'm reading, although your sentiment is very nice. -- another example of making crap up.

Yes, the message could be much easier to understand. The Hebrew God proves extremely vengeful and malicious. He wipes out the population of the earth, encourages genocide, obliterates two cities, kills the first-born animal and person in Egypt (except for the Hebrews), among other things.

He has Moses tell the Isrealites to worship no other gods. He's pretty strict about other laws too. In fact, it is a stoning offense merely mentioning his name!

Deuteronomy 13:7-11 wrote:
:“If your brother, the son of your father or of your mother, or your son or daughter, or the spouse whom you embrace, or your most intimate friend, tries to secretly seduce you, saying. “Let us go and serve other gods,” … you must show him no pity, you must not spare
him or conceal his guilt. No, you must kill him, your hand must strike the first blow in putting him to death and the hands of the rest of the people following. You must stone him to death, since he has tried to divert you from Yahweh your God.”

Then a young upstart preacher starts to tell everyone that he is the direct son of that god. Whoa!!!!! Major change in message there!!!!!

Can you imagine what would happen if someone did that in Iraq right now? If someone suddenly announced that they were the direct son of Holy Allah? Consider that people in the middle east were rioting over CARTOONS depicting their prophet Mohammed!

However, God wanted his son to be tortured and killed. It was part of his plan!!! You call this a being who desires to love us?!?

Then, if we don't worship him and his son, then we suffer forever and ever in hell. How do you interpret that to mean a loving god?

YOU THINK THIS "MESSAGE" IS EASY TO UNDERSTAND?!?!?!?!?

God sounds like a raving loon!!!!!

It will depend on the person that reads the Bible. consider this biblical examples:

1.) If you have the desire to follow God as you read the Bible, God will help you understand what you read.
Proverbs 1:23
Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you.

2.) If you have the desire to retract on thing you read in the gospel of christ. Satan has the task for you.

1Cor4:4
In whom the god of this world (satan) hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.

3.) On matters of deep writings of Paul, Peter stated that there are SOME which are hard to understand.
2Peter3:16
As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.

However, there's a way you/we can understand the deep things on the scripture through http://www.angdatingdaan.org/about/about_ministers.htm . Why church of God? In the bible it says.

Ephesians 3:10
To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God,
