As I was about to spend some time in the word, I was reminded that God is who he is (Ex. 3:14). God doesn’t make any apologies for that. Why, then, do I/we make apologies for Him?
The words in the Bible aren't nice pleasantries. God is really doing these things. He isn’t nice. He isn’t safe (Aslan). But He is good. This is always the case, even when I don’t like what He does.
I’ve been listening to some of the Passion 2012 conference, and Francis Chan touched on this using a few examples. The one I loved the most: Noah and the ark have been reduced to nursery décor. But, where are the pictures of all the people drowning?
