War & the God of the Old Testament

Church on The Rock Homer

From Pastor Dr. Aaron Weisser...

It was Richard Dawkins who popularized the phrase “genocidal bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser” to describe the God of the Old Testament in his most well-known work The God Delusion. This attack line has become more common and is used to undermine the possibility that the God of the Bible, as described, is a just God.

This Sunday, I want to take this attack head-on and deal with the accusation directly. To do so, I will use scripture to explain scripture, reason to unpack what is unreasonable, and where I don’t have the answers, I will let you know.

My hope is to increase your capacity to offer an apologetic for the God we serve and to increase your trust and affection for this same God.
Looking forward to our time together,

Aaron
