Why God Kills

Everyone has deep dark secrets, you know, those things you want to hide about yourself or your family. You know they are true, but you just don’t acknowledge those things and you do everything you can to keep others from finding out. The latest in our Top 10 List series is the question, "Why does the Old Testament contain an angry God who supports the killing of women and children?" The Old Testament (and New Testament) does contain some stories that are difficult, and often it is easier to treat these portions of the story of God like we do those dark family secrets. But maybe within these stories there are truths about God that make Him worth trusting.
