Why do you love or hate the Bible? [Spirituality & Religion]

I personally hate the Bible, because if God wants us to repent our sins, and ask for forgiveness, then why did he kill all the sinners in the great flood?
You're damned if you do, and damned if you don't. 🤷‍♀️
What do you hate (or love) the most about the Bible?

Grace wasn't available in the day of the great flood. He also gave them multiple chances to repent and the opportunity to get on the boat, they chose not to.

God gives us the opportunity to repent, its not a requirement but a choice. If we chose Grace, our lives are preserved against what we deserve, if not, judgement for what we've done, or not done.

Love that its clear and will go deeper.

@CC67219 Thanks for explaining that! I didn't actually read the real story in the Bible, and instead read it out of a children's Bible that left those parts out.

@PavlovsPuppy before the flood, the earth was only watered by mist. It had never rained before that day.

Hence the rainbow, His promise to never send a flood like that again.
