is He unstable? What if you get to Heaven and the angry, vengeful, smiting and genocidal OT God is back in charge?!

Some humans are inconsistent and this is reflected by the gods they invent, this becomes more apparent with multiple authors contradicting each other. The NT was written 100s of years after the OT so its understandable this god would under go a major personality change. Christians like pointing this out in the Quran, but when the Bible becomes the target we "unbelievers" don't know what we're talking about.

He would not substitute yet each and every little thing else does. This replaced into area of the plan from the beginning up first of all the 'chosen human beings' and then flow the message out into actual everyone, so it then must be for each individual. he's the comparable God and the regulation continues to be dazzling different than it have been given larger. Jesus defined it in distinctive examples. It went from dealing with enemies to loving enemies. Why? properly, think of related to the alterations. 4 hundred years had long previous with the help of without prophet in any respect, the Jews as a team rejected Jesus and have been now following adult men. until now that, they have been a team that have been consistently attacked. Now, the prophecy of Daniel replaced into happening. actually that's a reasonably super study, yet God had it planned and foresaw those issues. We even can foresee some issues in human beings's lives, often, different persons's, real.

We get to Heaven by being forgiven. So there is no condemnation there. All sins have been forgotten. The time to be concerned about God getting angry is before we get to Heaven. The angry vengeful God only treats people who are angry and vengeful that way. You get what you give. Be forgiving and you are forgiven..........and safe forever in Heaven.

Good question. I've been perplexed by that at times myself.
Truly it was not God who changed as much as the level of civilization of humans. He is able to deal more gently with us as we are more socially advanced now.
Think of dealing with your children as a model. Can you deal with a baby with the same level of discipline as a teenage? That is somewhat an opposite model, but different stages of development require different ta tics in both situations.
That is my simple form explanation I'm tired and its late but it is a point to start thinking from.

If he was stable, would he have tempted Adam and Eve when they were ignorant of temptaion or good and evil. He's a sicko, has always been a sicko. I'll take Hell.

Yes he did - but why?
The NT is when jesus(which is him) came to earth and taught the jews and everyone that it's not only jews who will be saved, anyone who believes in jesus as the son of god will be saved, and then told them they don't need 2 eat kosher, etc.

God did not have a personality change or a change of heart. He had always intended to send his Son to earth to die for our sins. What the heck do you think all the prophets were talking about? Even Jews know that's true, they may not yet see that Jesus has fulfilled them but they do know they exist. No change of heart at all. Failed logic on your part.

Are you reading the Bible?!! If you are, let the Holy Spirit convict you. Oh by the way, come Judgement Day, you can ask God that question and see what answer you get!!
