Do you think the old testament is compatible with the new one? [Spirituality & Religion]

Hebrew texts seem a little violent to me, what are your thoughts?

The old is just as relevant and important as the new. They are in complete harmony with each other. The old is an introduction for knowing who God is. People who claim he is nothing but a violent God, does not understand the Word, nor the character of God. His very being, is that of love. He is love personified, We cannot pick and choose what we decide is true or not, when it comes to the Bible. God did not hand us down a flawed account. That would make him a liar and God is no liar. If we cannot take the whole Bible as the Word of God, we may as well throw the whole thing out. People criticize, what they do not understand. You also have to ask yourself, does this person even know God? How can one speak for God, if he does not know him? That’s why it is important to read and study God‘s Word, so we’d know exactly what to believe. He did not leave us to guess.
