Many people are troubled by Old Testament images of God as an angry, vengeful deity. Nahum 1:2 (NIV) says, “The LORD takes vengeance and is filled with wrath. The LORD takes vengeance on his foes and vents his wrath against his enemies.” Some people wonder if God evolved from a God of wrath into a God of love. No, He says, “I am the LORD, I change not” (Malachi 3:6 kjv).
