Skeptics of the Bible often accuse God of being inconsistent, cruel or unjust. Is He a God of love, or a God wielding harsh punishments sometimes on large swaths of people? The argument stems from some of the more graphic stories of the bible and ask how a “loving God” could do that. The problem is that, almost universally, these stories are presented without any context.  Furthermore, we have to identify our own misconceptions about what love looks like, what justice looks like, and what we’re really entitled to. This is Part One of three articles that explore the full story digging into the proper context, revealing the true extent of God’s love for humanity. In this article we explore how Adam and Eve’s rebellion separated man from a relationship with God and the subsequent consequences it would bring upon all for that same spirit of rebellion and rejection of God’s instruction. As time progressed, societies became corrupt in ways we can only begin to imagine, and that they had no intention of changing. God had to take deliberate measures, for the sake of all, because the harm people were inflicting on one another disintegrated to abominable levels. The Old Testament gives example to some of these corrupt societies and what a loving God had to do.
