Think, if your God is a vengeful, mean God, what is that doing to your soul? Your behavior will reflect what you believe in, emulating what you worship and adhere to. You become a reflection of the god that you adore, that god that you love. If your soul needs to fear, to hate, to be vengeful, and to worry about hellfire and damnation, that you worship the wrong god.
YOU'RE THEN CREATING A VENGEFUL, JEALOUS GOD INSIDE OF YOU AS WELL AS OUTSIDE OF YOU.
No wonder there is so much hate spouted from the loving christians found here. Visit the LGBT section and experience real christian love if you doubt what I am saying.

Most of us truly don't see our own inner God. We don't construct a large enough God outside or inside.

The God within us is brilliant, shining, tall, straight, and healthy.

The Bible god is vengeful, and much more. If you have studied the Bible you know.
He was also very fond of collective punishment. He liked to paint with broad strokes. He was often subject to tantrums.
Church people tell you god never changes. That is unfortunate.

The One True God is the God of Love.
The bad fruit that the evil person has to bear would naturally appear as vengeful to him. If bad people suffer no bad consequences, then what is the difference of the free choice of man and the instinctive obedience of the cow!

Friend, God is a god of great love but great justice, too. Jesus talked a lot about the coming judgment of God. Only those who are trusting in Him and are walking in fellowship with Him will be spared from the great wrath of God that is to descend upon all mankind. I didn't make these things up. Jesus said them.
I do not buy your "god is inside you" philosophy. Jesus looked at all those great religious leaders of His day and He said "You are of your father the devil".
God is a jealous god and He will execute his judgment upon all those who do not turn to Him through His only begotten Son.
May God have mercy on your soul and the souls of all who are trusting in anything besides the shed blood of Jesus Christ.
god bless

Vengance Is Mine! Says so in the Bible. For I am a Jealous God. Says that too. But the Bible also tells us that seeking Vengance, and Jealousy are sinfull! Lust is a Sin says the Bible. Is the sexual act within marrage without Lust? I dont think so!! wv_warlock@yahoo.com

We paint a traditional image of the "wrathful God". That's not the case. God loves all of us, so much, that He sent His Son, Jesus, who died for us, so that we could go to Heaven.
However, the evil doers who push God away will fall into His just hands, and they'll go to Hell.
God is not evil. Satan is!

tolerating evil is not a virtue. Faith does not save a person. If you are helped, it is a gift, grace, of the Almighty YHVH. Most people have faith in something else, which cannot save. And in the end most people will choose to be lost rather than come to the Savior YAHOSHUA for salvation!
The Almighty YHVH set up a system. He sent His “Son” YAHOSHUA to die for the sins of mankind so they would not have to. (They could choose to, but did not have to). Any person who chooses not to allow Yahoshua to take care of their sins, chooses to remain attached to their sins. They thus will wind up in the lake of fire which is YHVH’s method of cleaning this world, and eliminating sin and sinners. The Creator set aside the Seventh day for rest and worship. Yes that is the day usually called “Saturday”. We are not saved by obedience, we are saved by faith. However we are saved FOR obedience. As He said in John 14:15 (and in many other places) “If you love me, keep my commandments.
The only thing that will change a person is the indwelling savior Yahoshua. Obviously that is rare in this sinful world.

I don't claim to own a god--but I suppose those that do can train it to do whatever they want
