today has been not so good, no sleep tired irritable, but just picked up my bible, after praying to god. I read Isaiah, Daniel, Ezekiel, all of these books, it referred to the God of Israel. And almost all of the books, it said, or from the books that god of Israel was furious with people being wicked, and having idols, that are vanity. He said these are dumb idols that have no significance. And that he did destroy wicked cities, that were involved in occult or astrology and people relied on them for answers. The Lord said he is the only god, and these are false prophets that are spreading lies to people. He kept referring to these people, in different cities as wicked and the forsaked his laws and became evil, heathens, thoughts of grandiose of themselves. So, when i pray, i either pray to Jesus or god, its difficult to know which one to ask for help. But Jesus is the son, and the father or god is in him. In the old testament, god of Israel was furious with wickedness in cities, Jerusalem, during that period of time, and he would destroy it with fire, and desolate the whole place. Same thing with Sodom, he destroyed Sodom with fire falling from the sky, not sure if it was asteroids or meteors. But the whole land, Sodom the city was completely destroyed, wiped out.
The God in the old testament referred to follow his laws, and statues, and many people forsaked or didn't care about it, and lived in indulgence of sin. It seems he's an angry god, in the old testament, because he did desolate cities and wiped out Sodom. It said in scripture, to love the lord with all your heart, and to follow his laws he gave. Many people said screw it, and did their own things. Today it doesnt seems as he's an angry god, but in the old testament, very much for people who forsaked his laws and became significantly wicked. Same thing with Noah's Ark, god of Israel caused the flood because the whole world had became wicked and all sorts of evil things. The flood killed all of them, and Noah's arc was selected people. So, God of Israel in the old testament, is angry when people become wicked, and forsake his laws. After Jesus came, not sure if that changed the anger against the wicked, to desolate them. Jesus came to call sinners to repentance, and to have salvation. But, just the god that was around more han 3000 years ago was angry with people who did wicked, feelings of grandiose, forsaked his laws and did really evil things. I want to pray to the god of Israel, he brought the slaves out of angry, it took 400 years, but he freed them. Moses, was given the 10 commandments. Anyways, follow the 10 commandments, they are still valid today, thou shall not steal, nor slander, speak false words. Yes. just pray to god he would give you a new heart, release wickedness. Many wicked people are being tormented in hellfire, unexplainable torment. Follow the laws and follow Jesus, he will lead you away from hellfire after death. treat people with kindness and respect, that's what Jesus said. I'll just leave it at that, study the bible, and ask for a new heart.
