7. Explain why I should believe that your god is all-good when the only real information we have about him is the Bible, which clearly describes him as both good and evil. (See Isaiah 30:32, Luke 14:26, Numbers 31:17-18, Matthew 10:34, Amos 3:6, Deuteronomy 18:8, Deuteronomy 20:16, Exodus 20:5, Exodus 32:27, Isaiah 45:7, Psalms 52:5, Luke 22:36, and Jeremiah 18:11 for a small sample of Biblical passages which describe Jehovah as having an evil morality at times).
All-good can be a misleading term. Generally some type of physical fitness plan can improve your health, but some people have conditions that prevent them from doing so. If you haven’t worked out in a while, you will probably have a painful experience for a few sessions. God created a world with consequences to actions, he’s not really picking on anyone, “evil” is a result of the choices we make. In the new testament verses, I believe Jesus is making a point of how difficult it can be to commit to following rather than being evil.
