Yes, you may have covered this topic before but this one is more based on the questions of: What kind of a God is He about His heart and His charactor and how He care's about the thoughts and the heart of His people.
And His strange and unusual act..

What kind of God would laugh at sin? Do we think He giggles at adultery or snickers at murder? Do you think He looks the other way when we produce television talk shows based on perverse pleasures? Does He shake His head and say, "Humans will be humans"?
Dare we say, "God won't get upset with me because I am His child. Besides, it would not be fair for Him to chasten me." Ah! But what about the verse,
"Whom the Lord loves He chastens?" (Hebrews 12:6) God does not take any of these things lightly. Mark it down and underline it in red. God is rightfully angry.
God is a holy God. Our sins are an affront to His holiness. His eyes "cannot look on wickedness" (Habakkuk 1:13).God is angry at the evil that ruins his children.
The question is not, "How dare a loving God be angry?" but rather. "How could a loving God feel anything less?"-----
We need to realize, Lynn, that human thoughts are NOT God's thoughts. His ways are higher than our ways. If we truly got what we deserve, we would all be in hell. God cannot look upon sin. That is precisely why when our Sovereign One was hanging on that cross, God had to LOOK AWAY! He could NOT look at Jesus because on that cross Jesus was carrying the weight of every single SIN that we humans have and will commit.
God is Holy, Righteous, and Just.
Just does not mean 'fair'. You are trying to mix human words with God's words. God does not act strange and unusual. He is HOLY! He is Creator and Maker of the entire universe. He is the Maker of all things visible and invisible. I sincerely think you need to start a different post with the Heading/Title something more on the order of, "The Attributes of God".......if you are trying to explain His character.
Even though there already exists a Title/post with that very Title. You seem to be vacillating/....you know, wavering in your mind as to what the topic is you want to discuss. I sincerely believe you are trying to discuss too many subjects at the same time, and you are getting confused. No offense.
