He is perfect. but to some Christians they have an imperfect God
If God cannot keep his word (perfect in the KJV) he is flawed.
If god is perfect so is his word and actions
check your heart and know that God is God

The Gnostics would say just that. That the god that created our world is not the highest power, but a demi-god who is imperfect and petulant.. the god of the Old Testament. In the Gospel of Judas Jesus refers to the fact that the disciples are praying to someone and they don't even know who it is, it is not who they think it is. I should say, if you do not know about Gnosticism, that it is a very early form of Christianity, which has been pretty much stomped out, but it still exists.

Bible God is perfect. But this mimicry of wrong arguements from the priestly scribes who changed something and left others and addded something at wrong places and later resulted in amusing mistakes. Like Abraham has two sons and when they changed it then they left mistake read it:
They told Abraham sacrificed his only son Isaac. While when Isaac was born Ishmael was 9 or 11 year old.

I don't know if he's perfect or not, but the fire and brimstone God of the Old testament is more about columns of fire, plagues and floods more so than the Loving, forgiving New Testament God.
Looks like he learned a little forgiveness through Jesus.

First God does exist. Second He is perfect. There is no assumption on my part as a Christian I totally believe. I do not condemn those with questions I pray they find answers that will lead them to God and all their questions will be answered.

No... of course not. This is a very silly question.
Wes is very ignorant to the Bible. It is very obvious that he has never read anything other than maybe.. John 3:16.......
and that's pushing it.
The God in the Bible is absolutely perfect. He made us from his likeness. But he gave us free will and we... ourselves... alone... screwed that up.
So that Wes doesn't get offended::
Ignorant:
1. lacking in knowledge or training; unlearned: an ignorant man.
2. lacking knowledge or information as to a particular subject or fact: ignorant of quantum physics.
3. uninformed; unaware.
4. due to or showing lack of knowledge or training: an ignorant statement.

No.
God is perfect. The problem lies with free will that He has granted to all His creatures. Evil is the result of free will. But then without free will all the praise to God would be hollow. Hence, the free will.

NO! God is perfect, we are the ones that are imperfect!

god created something that would love him back as he loved us . he wanted a relationship with us. we are given the right to choose who we love / make our own decisions. a robot / someone without a heart / mind wouldn't be able to give love / choose to share a relationship . you want someone who wants you / has free will mind ability to choose .
suggest a book .... why bad things happen to good people .

Certainly.
In fact, an imperfect god (or worse still, a downright Evil god) is the only way the existence of god can be reconciled with the existence of evil.
