I happened upon a website a few weeks ago. Don't ask me how I got there....but as always it was a result of clicking a link that led to another link....to another link and so on and so forth. Just another case of divine serendipity, I suppose.
The name of the site is Redeeming God. It is authored by Jeremy Myers. I landed on a longish series of blog posts that take a close look at God's culpability for the violence, bloodshed and carnage in the OT.
Like me, the author cannot reconcile the OT scriptures, taken at face value, with the expressed image of God that we see in Jesus.
When we seek to understand the violence of God in the Old Testament, we must begin by looking at the end. We must begin by looking at the person and work of Jesus Christ. Jeremy Myers
My intention is to post excerpts from his series and any of my own thoughts that are sparked by what I read. That is my intention......
I've already written about this topic in years past....here....and here....and here....and quite a few other posts under the tag Old Testament.
