What can you tell from following verse on the Character of GOD?
From the Following Verse :
Number Chapter 15
“Because he hath despised the word of the LORD,and hath broken his commandment,that soul shall utterly be cut off; his iniquity shall be upon him.
And while the children of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man3that gathered sticks upon the sabbath day.
And they that found him gathering sticks brought him unto Moses and Aaron, and unto all the congregation.
And they put him in ward, because it was not declared what should be done to him.
And the LORD said unto Moses, The man shall be surely put to death: all congregation shall stone him with stones without the camp.
And all the congregation brought him without the camp, and stoned him with stones, and he died as the LORD commanded Moses. “
When we follow a leader, shouldn’t we access his personality first?
I always thought that GOD, should be “Loving”, “Kind” and “Forgiving”!...

Since when is it up to you to determine what God should be. Besides, God has always treated the Israelites somewhat differently than other groups.

God is not only all of theese but he is just,and he can not stand the sin.he gaave his son to die for us.isn't that loving?
but he could not be with his son on the cross because He is Perfection and Absolut.
About the story u recounted,that was in educational purposes.
God said something and they pretended to not hear.
If u would rean the entire history of israel u would realise that the hebrews were a very annoyng nation.Look it up.
U will be amased to see how loving God was and how ungrateful they were

I am not sure if anyone can know the entire character of God. That is the main reason for the Bible, to introduce us to the characteristics of God so we can try to adopt them into our lifestyle. I guess that is one way of defining a maturing Christian - one that is learning more characteristics of God and trying to incorporate them into their lifestyle.

You are talking about Yahweh, not God. God is loving, kind, forgiving, and feels great compassion. He does what he can to end our enslavement to Yahweh.
