So what is your point Mffinie?To show us your non-support of bible or dislike for the Creator?
My point, is that just because God does something,
it doesn't make it good. We don't think murder, rape, slavery, or genocide, is "good". But if God does it, it's "
inherently good", with no exceptions.
Also, when you refer to God sending Jesus to die a torturous death, that is another thing to consider. A all-powerful, "moral" God, would find some other way to forgive people of
some sins (
homosexuals, adulterers, non-believers, and liars still go to hell according to the New Testament), than to have himself/his own son/his own father tortured to death. If he's all powerful, and if he really is "moral" or "good", he would stop people from committing slavery, rape, or genocide, because he would intervene to do some "good". The Bible says that God intervened to save Paul from a snake bite, but apologists say God can't ever intervene when it comes to natural disasters, when it would show that he is either malevolent by not intervening, not all-powerful, or that he doesn't exist. People can't have it both ways.
And also, how can you "regulate slavery fairly"? Slavery of an about itself is a abomination, and if God was "good" he would have stopped it from happening or intervened to get rid of it in the first place. Unless God thinks slavery
is good, which the Bible constantly shows. Otherwise, he wouldn't order it, and the Bible wouldn't say slaves absolute obedience to their earthly masters is in line with the doctrine of God.
Also, God says, that he created all evil, so he created slavery. And if you want to argue that he didn't do that directly, he definitely gave man the ability to come up with slavery.
Proverbs 16:4:
The Lord has made everything for its purpose,
even the wicked for the day of trouble.
Isaiah 45:7:
I form light and create darkness,
I make well-being and create calamity,
I am the Lord, who does all these things.
1 Samuel 16:15: “Behold now,
a harmful spirit from God is tormenting you.
Amos 3:6: Is a trumpet blown in a city, and the people are not afraid?
Does disaster come to a city, unless the Lord has done it?John 1:1-51: In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God.
All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life, and the life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it
And speaking of how there won't be any slavery in God's kingdom? How can you know that? There at least was at the time the Bible was written evildoers and evil in God's kingdom. According to a prophecy from Matthew 13:41: "The Son of Man
will send his angels, and
they will gather out of his kingdom all causes of sin and all law-breakers
