the bible Jesus is genocidal

   Here are some ignored facts about Jesus in scripture.
   
   Behold this 'wrathful' Old Testament prophecy concerning Jesus, from the bible: "Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure. Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel. [Psalms ch 2; to be fulfilled when he returns to take the Jewish throne; see Revelation ch 19 for the gory details involving himself on a horse followed by the armies out of heaven]. He alluded to this himself when he said "and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory." The bible talks about the "times of the Gentiles" when the heathen (you) get to have their hayday before he returns to kill them, thinking all is well: "For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape." (bible)
   
   Here's the bit in the bible about his genocide of the heathen:
   
   "And the armies which were in heaven followed him (Jesus) upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
   
   "And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword;
   
   "And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God;
   
   "That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and
   
   the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great." (Revelation 19:14-18)
   
   
   And the Jesus preached in your church is the Jesus of scripture?
   
   Enjoy your wife and your picnic. God's got a nasty surprise waiting for you after death.

        I don't have a wife and I don't go for picnics
      And I can assure you that the nasty surprise is waiting for you after death, not me.
      If you want to scare someone with all that babble, you should go and preach in a mental asylum!

      It is no surprise that Christ is and will be harsh on non-believers.  As for my wife and our picnic, we have nothing to fear.  We are God's children.

    the bible is written by different people in different times, there is inconsistency on the content, it is a subject of different interpretation. Yes, the passages are indeed genocidal, only if you believe that there is God and HE mastermind to write the bible through people and the spirits...what is the connection of the Bible with a GOD, it is not a figment of the mind only, or so that people will have justifications and solutions for the things they cant fathom......

             Religious philosophy,  prose, poetry and parables.Enlightened ones sharing their knowledge of the beyond or god.
             
             Poetry originated with the Vedas the most ancient spiritual text, dohas or couplets the most condensed and highest form of philosophy.Today poetry has unfortunately taken a very broad meaning and one rarely finds spiritual knowledge or a message in them.

    Being on the top of the food chain, we forget that we live in a  opportunistic parasitic and predatory world. Is it genocide for a wolfs to kill the sheep, or the rancher to kill the wolfs, or the butcher to kill the cows, to set a mouse trap, or swat a fly or to spray for termites.
         Do we not kill all of the rattlesnakes and hornets nests before we build a town over them.
         We are the genocidal opportunistic parasites when looking from the other side of the issue.
         It is natural for us to relate to God as being like us if we were created in his image.
        Is it?  But; should it?

    The issues surrounding God and metaphysics are just :
    
    
    Round, like a circle in a spiral
    Like a wheel within a wheel.
    Never ending or beginning,
    On an ever spinning wheel
    Like a snowball down a mountain
    Or a carnaval balloon
    Like a carousell that's turning
    Running rings around the moon
    
    Like a clock whose hands are sweeping
    Past the minutes on it's face
    And the world is like an apple
    Whirling silently in space
    Like the circles that you find
    In the windmills of your mind

    A sane person can't think this way

    As I said earlier in this post.  Being at the top of tha food chain we are allowed to forget that this world is established upon the precept that all things are opportunistic, predatory,and or paradisaical in nature. There has to be turmoil on one side of the fence or the other.
        Let God sort it out.  I don't think that he wants for me to worry  too much about his business.   Just do my best to be the best me  that I can be and try ta not hurt nobody.
        And see if I can trick anybody into behavin like that too. 
         As long as that don't hurt nobody!!!!!
