Black & White

God's Word is absolute. We can't choose what we want to change or alter so that we can ease our guilty minds. Yes. God is a loving God. Yes. God is a merciful God. And yes. God is a forgiving God. But He's also a jealous God and He wants ALL of us. So you can justify and squirm all you want but that doesn't change the fact that God's Word is true. Who are we to decide that because a verse tells us something we don't want to hear, that we can choose not to hear it? If the Bible says it, it's true. Period. Whether we like it or not.
