20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:

21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.

22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.

seeing too many of us being in v21 and v23. using a humanistic approach to view god, then we tink that god is that lovey-dovey saviour, able to tolerate people who can't keep his commandments. is that god? is that my god? i dun tink so. (to b accurate god will forgive only when u repent. he wun forgive for fun)

then ppl will come to me and sae wa ur god kill ppl, how he all-loving? then i tell u, talk doctrine, and u will know. how about sin (also human who sin) are separate from god, and sin must b punished because god is just? hello, so lovey-dovey more impt than punishing sin. i see... but i tell u sth lei. u're not god.

u can't choose how to be with god and u can't choose how god behaves. humans are here and made by god to glorify god and not to gei gao that god is being a despot (if u see the beginning, basically humans are as good as god's chess pieces - u submit ur life to god, u hav limited say). fact is, thanks to rampant marketing and/or controls by wayward communities, the wrong (mayb half-truth) picture of god is being spread.
