Episode -29AD; Is Father God Violent or Punishing? Does Jesus want sacrifices? Apr 22, 2025

I spent 30 years in the evangelical church world in the USA. Most of that was under the influence of Reformed Calvinist theology. I struggled with the teaching about Father God being angry, judgmental and punishing. If Jesus Christ is perfect love and 1 John 4 states Father God IS Love; how could the Hebrew scriptures really teach the angry Zeus and Janus-like god in the sky? What is God truly like? How did we get to this angry god? Which view is right, correct?
