If you have ever been afraid of God, or have thought that God is out to get you, to punish you for some sin, if you think that the bad things which happen to you in life are because God hates you or is making you pay for something you did, this podcast episode is for you.
We look at Genesis 3:8-10 and see that there is nothing to fear from God.
The Text of Genesis 3:8-10
And they heard the sound of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God among the trees of the garden.
Then the LORD God called to Adam and said to him, “Where are you?”
So he said, “I heard Your voice in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; and I hid myself.”
In this discussion of Genesis 3:8-10 we look at:
- How some Christians read Genesis 3:8-10 to make God appear angry
- Why God was not angry.
- How to know what God think about us and our sin.
- How God responds do your sin.

God? No. I AM afraid of the rest of the world though.
Jim Gordon says
I think christianity has done its best to make God sound like someone to be afraid of, but Jesus proved He is a God of love and acceptance.
