Is God A Moral Monster?

"For all including Moses) have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God that he gave his only begotten Son...

Which president was it who said God told him to go into Iraq?

1 Samuel 15:2-3

2 This is what the Lord Almighty says: ‘I will punish the Amalekites for what they did to Israel when they waylaid them as they came up from Egypt.
3 Now go, attack the Amalekites and totally destroy all that belongs to them. Do not spare them

I'll stay on topic

 

[PS]

Yes I agree but you are still denying the clear parts that God commanded

God is Good. I do not believe God tells us to commit evil otherwise He would be condemning us to Hell.

Yes very true. It takes good study to know God's original will, his commands, his actions, and which events or actions was of mans rebellion. That is what I love about God and the Bible. It records the good, the bad, and the ugly.

Very true.

Was this action done solely from man or command by God.

1 Samuel 15:2-3

Jesus did it willingly. Jesus is God! Not was.

According to God mankind is evil and all have the curse from Adam. If God calls judgment who are you to say God I am morally wiser than you and I know this judgment is too harsh. What do you think happened when God flooded the Earth? I am sure people of all ages drowned.

No the scripture I mentioned lol

People lie, especially it seems so do presidents. Imagine President Moses and you have practically every president there has ever been.

No the scripture I mentioned lol

What's this have to do with the Lord being sacrificed willingly?
1 Samuel 15:2-3 2This is what the LORD Almighty says: 'I will punish the Amalekites for what they did to Israel when they waylaid them as they came up from Egypt. 3Now go, attack the Amalekites and totally destroy all that belongs to them. Do not spare them; put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle and sheep, camels and donkeys.'"

Study Bible
Corruption on the Earth
…5Then the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great upon the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of his heart was altogether evil all the time. 6And the LORD regretted that He had made man on the earth, and it grieved Him in His heart. 7So the LORD said, “I will blot out man, whom I have created, from the face of the earth—every man and beast and crawling creature and bird of the air—for I am grieved that I have made them.”…

Where is your evidence related to Moses lying about Gods commands?

 

[Heyjude]

Agreed where I am speaking on is the clear God commanded judgments or Mosaic law. The OP scriptures. We have either God commanded actions or rebellious actions. The reader has to determine which.

"aye, there’s the rub!"

Romans 5:12
Death Through Adam, Life Through Christ
12 Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all people, because all sinned—
