Isaiah
13:15 Every one that is found shall be thrust through; and every one that is joined unto them shall fall by the sword. (13:15-18)
If God can find you, he will "thrust you through," smash your children "to pieces" before your eyes, and rape your wife.
13:16 Their children also shall be dashed to pieces before their eyes; their houses shall be spoiled, and their wives ravished.
13:17 Behold, I will stir up the Medes against them, which shall not regard silver; and as for gold, they shall not delight in it
-----If God can find you, he will "thrust you through," smash your children "to pieces" before your eyes, and rape your wife.

Hm this doesnt sound too friendly. Especially the raping and smashing part. Kinda makes you wonder if god is even a loving god.

the christian god is not a god at all.
god is love, therefore all that the christians claim is contradiction upon itself on god.
god is love, god is non judgemental, god accepts all.
unlike what the christians would have u believe.
If Jesus himself will tell others to forgive all many times over, then how much more will God himself forgive?
If also, Jesus spent time among the tax collectors, eating with them, and his disciples say "how can he eat among such?"
and Jesus responds, " it is the sick whom need me most, why stay around those who are well and do not need a doctor?"
God too, would welcome all , including those whom do bad, and against bible texts.
If Jesus does all that he did, against he religion of that time, then why not His father, God, whom is greater then He, be more loving.

Your quotes are out of context, and you are quoting the old testament which is for the Jewish people, not the Christian God you are talking about. This is the problem with most people not knowing who was it written for, what was happening at the time, why was it said, When did it happen. These are important questions to understand scripture in its truest meaning.

This is the doom of Babylon.
verse 11 And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible.
verse 19 And Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldees' excellency, shall be as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.
The wrath of God on the wicked is a terrible thing. Repent and believe on the name of Jesus that you may be saved.

The kind of God that warned his people for centuries to straighten up their act, with no change in their behavior. The kind of God that keeps a promise He makes, and therefore has to punish His people as He said He would.
And if you are going through Isaiah, just a tip--that's the Israelite God; the Christian God shows up in the New Testament.

Even though I am a Muslim, I disagree with your comments. You are showing just some of the quotes. Why not show the words surrounding that quote?

when you disobey God it is a serious offence. Just like a burniing hell.
No less tolerable then the media's peace loving Islam

parts of the bible like this make me wonder why christians say what they say and then possibly say what they say he stands for.
