Some of the followings seem contradictory....
..For example:
God is jealous: "For the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God." (Exod. 34:14)
Jealousy is a sin: "The acts of the sinful nature are obvious ... jealousy" (Gal. 5:19-20)
If jealousy is a sin, and God is jealous, then the only conclusion we can draw is that God is a sinner

Aren't you clever. You've taken two different verses, written thousands of years apart and drawn a conclusion.
It would be like taking what you said just now, comparing it to what you babbled when you were three months old, and concluding you're an babbling idiot.

You're supposed to follow all God's teachings. For the one who only follows certain things, has committed the sin of Partial Obedience. Partial Obedience is somewhere mentioned in the Bible, but I forgot.

Are you really interested? No you are not, so therefore I will not answer your question. The only conclusion we can draw is, you have no respect for God, nor to the ones who do. I say this not to single you out, there are many here who do not deserve an answer to questions that disrespect the Lord Jesus Christ.

Nice try to twist the truth, but not good enough.
There are only two commandments that Christ taught us to follow.
One - Love the Lord thy God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your might.
Second - Love your neighbor as yourself.
And then He said that on these two commandments stand all of the Law and all of the Prophets.
cheers.

Only when taken out of context as you have. Typical of the non believer.

Being contradictory is human and divine.
