Why is it that the God of the Old Testament is described as a jealous or angry god?
Then in the New Testament God is expressed through Jesus as a God of mercy and love?
Did God Change?
Is He both an angry and a loving god? Maybe God has a dual nature?
I confess in my younger years I believed this. When I read both the Old and New Testament I thought God had a dual nature…..Boy was I wrong!
The truth is....God does NOT change! We change!
God does not have a dual nature…..we do!
We all have an ego (which is attached to this world) and a spirit (which is attached to God).
All jealousy, anger, pain and suffering are produced by your EGO which is defined as Edging God Out.
If God appears to have a dual nature… that only your ego’s perception of Him.
Face it, your ego separates you from God. It has caused you confusion and it obstructs your true understanding of God...for God is love, peace, and joy. Therefore it is YOU that has to transform NOT God. He is the Transformer! Only He has the power to transform YOU!
Knowing God is a life changing experience. If you have “Awakened” or as Jesus explained it, been “Born Again” (John 3:3) then you will experience radical transformation!
To “know” God is to experience and understand Him in a personal way. To “know” God is NOT just knowledge. Many religious people have a great deal of knowledge about God but do they really “Know” him?
Look at it this way. Your relationship with God is like being in a marriage. Being in a relationship with someone is a life changing experience. I can say I “know” your spouse but that is not true unless I live with them and experience a daily relationship with them like you do, correct?
If you say you know God and your life has NOT changed then I suggest you take a good look at your relationship with God. To know God is love and experience a daily relationship with Him.
Do you know the voice of God. Do you communicate with Him through spirit? Has He changed your life?
Let your soul cry out to God and the Spirit of God will set you free from all pain and suffering. He will give you love, peace and joy. “Be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind…” Rom 12:2
