And he passed in front of Moses, proclaiming, "The Lord, the Lord, the compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness, maintaining love to thousands, and forgiving wickedness, rebellion and sin. Yet he does not leave the guilty unpunished; he punishes the children and their children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation." Exodus 34: 6-7
Um, are you hearing yourself, God? You just had us kill 3000 of our brothers, friends, and neighbors. Frankly God, you're coming across as a little bipolar. And how exactly does punishing future generations for their predecessors sins make you "abouding in love?" If I wasn't so afraid of you, I just might stop taking your calls.
