How can God be good if he "commanded genocide"?

A: Did he tho? God is perfect and holy, unlike sinful fallen man. God is not like us, he is very otherly. Youre thinking as a fallen sinful person, not looking at things rightly. Your wrong & very much unjustly judging God. 

When God judges, it's justice not genocide. 

So, let's stop calling divine judgment "genocide," as if God was acting like a human tribal warlord.

This wasn't random violence.

It was righteous justice.

The nations God judged were overflowing with evil-child sacrifice, ritual abuse, and corruption that spread like poison.

He gave them centuries to repent. 

They didn't.

Judgment came.

The question isn't

"Why would God judge them?"

The real shock is

"Why hasn't He judged us yet?"

God's mercy delays what our sin deserves. And when He finally does act, we call it cruel?

You want a God who cares about evil, yet you complain when He judges it.

You want justice without wrath. That god doesn't exist.

The God of Scripture is patient, but He is also holy.

And here's the bigger twist.

The same God who once brought judgment entered His own creation-not with a sword, but with a cross.

The innocent died for the guilty. You think judgment is hard to swallow? Try grace.

It's not that God is too harsh.

It's that we've forgotten how serious sin really is.

Get right with God today, for Judgment Day is coming for all who die in their sins. Tomorrow might nor exist for you, for you dont know when God will call you into eternity to give account for your crimes against Him. Get this matter settled today, right now.
