The Bible Is Filled With Violence and Hate

March 1, 2020 • Scott Dudley

How can a good God allow violence? It’s one of the most difficult questions of faith. It’s hard to make sense of stories in scripture where God allows violence and destruction. The truth is that God is a warrior against sin and the pain that it causes. There are far more passages about God’s love and mercy than His wrath. The instances where God commands war are rare, and they were always to stop a greater injustice. Even in the midst of war, God also provides a way out for those who will turn to Him. Through the person of Jesus, God has absorbed all our violence, death and sin. The Lord your God is in your midst a victorious warrior, He is mighty to save.

No matter where on the political spectrum you find yourself, talking about politics can be uncomfortable. Especially the intersection of politics and faith. Unfortunately, many Christians on both sides of the political aisle tend to believe that God is on their side and that the other side is morally corrupt. We let our political loyalties impact not just how we vote, but our faith and how we treat other people as well. While politics should never be where our primary loyalties lie, politics still matter to God because people matter to God. However, at the end of the day, what’s important is that our political differences make us better, rather than turn us against each other.
