The (Almost) Infinite Patience of God James Kifer

To many God is a fierce, wrathful, Divine monarch whose impatience with humanity has long been demon-strated, nowhere more pointedly than in the Old Testament where He destroyed people and nations with an almost gleeful abandon. According to this version of the Almighty, His character was tempered somewhat by the coming of His Son, and He became the God of the New Testament. Such a view is a travesty, and this work shows the God of Creation, of Moses and of David to the present day to possess a patience beyond the reach of any man or woman.
