In the Bible, we find God using a wide variety of methods to kill people. He bludgeons them with hailstones, He throws them into a crack in the earth, He drowns them in water, He has them mauled by wild animals, He torches them in fire, He chops off their heads—and that’s just for starters. In the Bible, God’s victims range from the elderly to the infant. He orders women to be raped and men to be castrated. He has pregnant women’s stomachs ripped open with swords. He drives people into cannibalism by starving them to death. He has babies heads bashed open on rocks. He oversees the barbecuing of countless infants, children, and young adults who are ritually sacrificed to demonic idols. Don’t like it? Of course you don’t. This is the side of God that we like to pretend doesn’t exist. But it does exist, and trying to ignore God’s brutal side only erodes our reverence of Him to dangerously low levels. You really don’t want to have a God with this kind of power mad at you. He doesn’t flinch at how gruesome and violent His methods are. Instead, He brags about it.
